Why still the moz index showing "Next Update on August 26, 2013"?
-
I have been waiting to see the updated authority metrics from Opensiteexplorer.org.
But still it is showing old data. and showing "next index update: August 26, 2013" as the date is 27th August today.
Is there any delay in update?
-
And we've updated! Thanks again for your patience everyone.

Last time this happened, we went about 2 months without an update. I remember because I had been recommending SEOMoz memberships to a lot of my clients who wanted more in-depth info about their links & competitors that they could take with them when they no longer need me. I had some 'splaining to do when some of them discovered one of the key features they were paying for wasn't there. When MozScape did finally update, it was indeed much better than before. So I am very curious to see if this update with that "new section of the internet that we never crawled before" closes the gap between some of the other link monitors (that do have way too many of the garbage links in their indexes).

It looks like we will be releasing the index this afternoon. We'll keep you posted!
-
Any update yet?
-
We apologize for the delay. We encountered some unexpected difficulties, but we hope to be able to release this index in the next day. We will know more in the next 3-4 hours, and I will update this post as I have more information.

The last Mozscape index update was 7/11/2013. In August, they put this up:
"Dreadfully sorry, but we've decided to not release our most recent Mozscape Index, since it was not up to our quality standards which we measure with index correlations.
Why did this happen?
Our scheduling algorithm always tries to add new URLs to the schedule to make sure we expand our coverage over time. Unfortunately it seems to have hit a new section of the internet that we never crawled before. This resulted in a huge set of new URLs that seem to be of low quality, and the this has skewed the rankings slightly (a little more than we are comfortable with). Large domains seemed to be most impacted and showed a marked decrease in external links.
What do we plan to do now?
We are attacking this from multiple angles:
- We are removing the new "section" and emphasizing the crawl of high-quality domains.
- We've added additional monitoring to alert the BigData team when the schedule becomes imbalanced and does not display its normal characteristics.
- We moved a quality check to earlier in the index generation cycle so we can discover problems quicker.
- Finally, we created a new schedule of high quality and are re-crawling.
When can you anticipate the next index release?
August 26, 2013"

However the Just-Discovered Links beta is working fine. On the other hand, The G+, FB Sharing counts been increased rather than authority metrics.
-
Also wondering this myself. Has there even been an update in awhile? My site that has been up since April is still showing 3 backlinks while we have a lot more than that..

What does "Optimal Use of Keywords in Header Tags" really mean?
I get this explanation on the grader: Although using targeted keywords in H1 tags on your page does not directly correlate to high rankings, it does appear to provide some slight value. It's also considered a best practice for accessibility and helps potential visitors determine your page's content, so we recommend it. Over-using keywords, however, can be perceived as keyword stuffing (a form of search engine spam) and can negatively impact rankings, so use keywords in H1 tags two or fewer times. To adhere to best practices in Google News and Bing News, headlines should contain the relevant keyword target and be treated with the same importance as title tags. But I have the keyword in an H1 tag, only once. So why am getting this message on the grader? The URL is https://www.armsecuritysystems.com/business-security-systems/ The keyword is "business security systems" Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Moz is showing issues at metadata continuously even though the issues are fixed.
I crawled my website by Moz and found many metadata issues (Short meta description, Too long title, Too long URL). I fixed all of the issues. But when I recrawled my site it showed me all issues are fixed except Meta description. I thought maybe my changes are not being saved and I checked again but It seemed okay! All the changes I made it is applied. So, my meta description is okay now but Moz is appearing old meta description what was too short and detecting as an issue. I recrawled my site 4 times. Please help me with that issue. Thanks, Robin

Why do new issues occur when there have been no updates to the website?
I am unsure on how new issues are created when crawling the site from one crawl to the next. I had assumed the number of issues would remain static if nothing was done from one crawl to the next. Can someone explain how new/additional issues are added from each crawl, even without updates being made? Thanks in advance, Christopher

Https address has different result that http in Page Optimization Score toll in Moz PRO
The following url

https://www.whichledlight.com/t/gu10-led-bulbs has (100 score for keyword 'GU10 LED')
has different on page opmisation score results to
http://www.whichledlight.com/t/gu10-led-bulbs (73 score for keyword 'GU10 LED') Anyone know if we've set something up wrong?
Also, is this even something to worry about, does google treat them differently? We're using the Page Optimisation Tool in Moz Pro ** UPDATE ** It's worth mentioning we are using emberjs, so the website is a single page application.
We use prerender to render the pages for google.0 -
How can I find duplicate pages from a Moz Crawl?
We have many duplicate pages that show up on the Moz Crawl, and we're trying to fix these but it's very difficult because I can't see a way to isolate the code where the duplicate is found. For instance, http://experiencemission.org/immersion/ is one of our main pages, and the crawl shows one duplicate of http://experiencemission.org/immersion. It appears that one of our staff manually edited the source code in one of our pages but forgot the trailing slash. This would be an easy fix but the problem is that this page is linked to internally on our website 2423 times, so it's next to impossible to find the code that is incorrect. We have many other pages with this same basic problem. We know we have duplicates, but it's next to impossible to isolate them. So my question is this: When viewing the Moz Crawl data is there any way to see where a specific duplicate page link is located on our website? Thanks for any and all help!

How do I get Moz to crawl my site?
If I'm not mistaken, Moz will crawl my site once a week and let me know of any errors, notices etc.. But can I ask them to crawl once I have updated all the errors? or do I have to wait for them to do this automatically?
