Question

What is the difference between the "Ranking distribution" and "Relative ranking distribution" graphs?

Answer

The ranking distribution shows absolute values. For example, it shows that the domain has 30 rankings on page 1 on Google, 67 rankings on page 2, etc.
The relative ranking distribution are the percentages. These indicate that the 30 rankings that were shown in the ranking distribution in the other chart account for 10%, page 2 then accounts for 20% of all rankings, etc.
