MOZ TEAM - your system done broke my status as a guru
-
Dear MOZ TEAM - WHY, when I have 2990 moz points, and my profile shows guru, does my profile banner in the Q&A itself now say ASPIRANT? Such a cruel world this has become !
I know I've wanted all along to have you come up with any title other than "guru" because that word is so dreaded in our world. Yet seriously - aspirant? I feel like Roger got drunk one night and decided "let's tease Alan"...
-
If I may make a suggestion stars verse gurus, or we all know SEOMoz has a weakness for unicorns
And now that we know unicorns are real Beyond any shadow of a doubt because of the North Korean media
http://www.today.com/video/today/50054562#50054562
I would propose having unicorns over stars or just how many unicorn horns equal guru or Unicorn master
What do you guys say unicorn master with maybe a photo like the thing shown in this URL. Happy Monday everyone
Sincerely,
Thomas

Roger is very dangerous. He looks so innocent on the outside!
-
I LOVE the notion of stars instead of "guru". But as I am now a lowly aspirant, it will be embarrassing if I only have like a half star or something. NO disrespect to aspirants. We were all lowly at one point.
-
We're trying to address the problems of gurus in the industry Alan!
I've sent off a note to the team and we're looking into this. Longer-term, we are going to replace Guru and Journeyman, as well as replace the labels in Q&A with stars representing the levels, to make things visually easier to understand.

It takes three aspirants to change an SEO lightbulb. One to change the lightbulb and two to explain why it's not probably not important but yet, paradoxically, all the more reason for a long term contract because the situation may change at any time.
-
oh wow. I was hoping you could answer it because I need to know! Isn't the reason I come here so I can get answers to these tough questions?
-
I don't know the answer to that question. But probably a guru would. I wish there were some of them around here.
-
hahaha. The blind wanting to lead the blind. How many aspirants does it take to change an SEO lightbulb?
-
Oh wait. Apparently I am now an aspirant too. Booo.
-
Perhaps Roger has concerns about your experience level Alan. Would you like me to teach you how to do an SEO audit?
-
Thanks for the link! Must have been Roger.
-
It's probably not personal. There is a thread here where are few of us have spotted the same: http://www.seomoz.org/q/bug-with-seomoz-level-display
So either it's a wider bug, or Roger got really drunk and is picking on a bunch of us!

Meta Tag Descriptions not being found in Moz Crawls
Hey guys, I have been managing a few websites and have input them into Moz for crawl reports, etc. For a while I have noticed that we were getting a gratuitous amount of errors when it came to the number of missing meta tags. It was numbering in the 200's. The sites were in place before I got here and a lot of the older posts no one had even attempted to include tags, links of the page or anything. As they are all Wordpress Sites and they all already had the Yoast/Wordpress SEO plug-in installed on them, I decided I would go through each post and media file one at a time and update their meta tags via the plug in. I personally did this so I know that I added and saved each one, however the Moz crawl reports continue to show that we are missing roughly 200 meta tags. I've seen a huge drop off in 404 errors and stuff since I went through and double checked everything on the sites, however the meta tag errors persist. Is this the case that Moz is not recognizing the tags when it crawls because I used the Yoast Plugin? Or would you say that the plugin is the issue and I should find another way to add meta tags to the pages and posts on the site? My main concern is that if Moz is having issues crawling the sites, is Google also seeing the same thing? The URLS include:

How you can manipulate your MOZ DA
I have become frustrated at MOZ in the last few months, none of my backlinks have made it into the index. Old back links. Long story short, I figured out the issue and I figured out how anyone can manipulate their DA. I wrote a blog post about it here, http://blog.dh42.com/manipulate-moz/

Update in Moz spider/tools?? Flagging duplicate content / ignoring canonical
Hi all, Has there been an update in the SEOmoz crawling software? We now have thousands of dupe content/page title warnings for paginated product page URLs that have correctly formatted canonicals. e.g. http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/tweed-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx ... has following pages with identical content that have been flagged: http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/olive-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx?p=true&rspage=4 http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/olive-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx?p=true&rspage=6 http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/olive-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx?p=true&rspage=4 ..plus 4 more URL's. But they all have canonical set. There's even a notice at the bottom of report that tells us there's a canonical set to http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/tweed-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx What gives, SEOmoz ?? Thanks Michael

SEO Moz Tools - too many on the page links result driving me nuts
A while back I remember Rand and I having a conversation about how many links on the page and up until that point I had followed the NO MORE THAN 100 links on a page rule - which is what the MOZ tools are telling me now in the campaigns I have running. But then during a seminar both of us were holding this 100 link rule question came up and Rand commented that this was probably old hat now as the search engines can crawl a much greater number of links in the page. I was encouraged by his answer especially where ecommerce websites are concerned. But the MOZ tool is driving me nuts telling me that this 100 link rule is still something to be adhered too. It is especially frustrating when we are discussing ecommerce website sites with editable mega menus. Examples to support this question are www.bohemiadesign.co.uk or www.flowersbuydelivery.co.uk which are 2 ecommerce sites I am aware of using such mega menus that are editable and give a link count greater than 100. and I am sure there are many more sites like this, even Amazon for example. So, how much notice do we take of this warning in MOZ tools that is telling me about excessive numbers of links on the pages it lists as needing corrected?
