Good job! This URL received an grade A ?

What does this mean ? This page still ranks very bad at Google. So what does it mean that it recives a grade A ?Also, if this URL recives Grade A. It should clearly be optmizied very good on the Keyword. Stil its on page 9 in google. That is very very low on this keyword. Alot of bad blogs, foreign pages, pages without the keyword in heading, pages without any good content etc. rank better.Does this score have anything to do with ranking on google ?Something is clearly wrong with this page. The on-grade tool wont tell me what that it is. And probably dont understand either, since it gives A. Is there anywhere I can check this page on what is wrong with it ?http://www.butikksiden.no/archives/5-toffe-canada-goose-jakker and Canada Goose jakker
Good Job! This URL received an A grade

Thanks! I Guess getting more backlinks is the ones I am missing. Anyway I Thought the Open Site Explorer was checking backlinks and taking this into account for total score. So when I score higher than many pages, this should be taken into account. Still I am way below these pages.
My page now moved 5 pages up on google since I posted this post. I wish I would have any answers on why it was so low rated and why it suddenly move 5 pages. If someone could show me any tools for this it would be great!
Also I dont see any improvement list for my page in my right hand column of the On page grader. How should I get this ? The only thing that I see is default suggestions below the grading on how to improve a page, or any site.

Hi Kim,
As Peter has suggested, the page grading is simply one of your tools in your SEO arsenal. Assuming all things are equal (backlinks etc) and you page is better optimised than your competitor, then yes, you should be rating higher.
Having looked at your page, yes it's a grade A, yet there are still some things that you can improve upon - they are clearly marked in the right hand column. Try doing that, first.
Secondly, keep building on your backlinks and you social media pages.
Remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint!
Hope that little helps.

Hi Kim
Moz's On-page grader tool is used to give you an understanding of how well optimised the page is for SEO. As you will have seen, it covers a range of different tests checking each one against the keyword you have told the tool you are optimising that page for, and gives it a score A to F based on how well optimised it is for the technical on-page SEO factors.
However, a grade A score does not give you any guarantees of how well that page ranks on Google. What it means is that most if not all things on page that are set up correctly for SEO. How highly a page ranks in Google is based on over 200 elements some of which are covered by the on-page grader but many won't be such as off-page ranking factors including back links, social etc. Consider the on-page grader as one of the tools in your SEO toolkit.
In terms of worse pages than yours that rank higher, it can be confusing and frustrating, but there is no simple answer. However, I recommend looking at doing a competitor analysis for the keyword to compare your page with what competing pages are doing. Look at the keyword difficulty tool to do this: https://mza.seotoolninja.com/researchtools/keyword-difficulty.
You may also find this Whiteboard Friday by Rand Fishkin useful: Why You Might Be Losing Rankings to Pages with Fewer Links, Worse Targeting, and Poor Content.
I hope that helps,
Peter

Do we get "Removal of "nofollow" from first custom URL on profile" when we cross 200 Moz Points? I have not received it yet, anything I can do?
Though I have only recently subscribed to Moz Pro, I have been using Moz Blog for quite some time. I recently crossed 200 Moz Points. As per Moz Points, it says "Removal of "nofollow" from first custom URL on profile" for crossing 200 points. I still dont see any links from Moz when I am using OSE. Can anyone suggest what i need to do?

How to choose the best canonical URL
In a duplicate content situation, and assuming that both rel=canonical and a 301 redirect pass link equity (I know there is still some speculation on this), how should you choose the "best" version of the URL to establish as the redirect target or authoritative URL? For example, we have a series of duplicate pages on our site. Typically we choose the "cleanest" or shortest non-trailing-slash version of the URL as the canonical, but what if those pages are already established and have varying page authority/backlink profiles? The URLs are: example.com/stores/locate/index?parameters=tags - PA = 54, Inbound Links = 259 example.com/stores/locate/index - PA = 60, Inbound Links = 302 example.com/stores/ - This is the version that currently ranks. PA = 42, Inbound Links = 3 example.com/stores - PA = 40, Inbound Links = 8 This might not really even matter, but in the interests of conserving as much SEO value as possible, which would you choose as either the 301 redirect target and/or the canonical version? My gut is to go with the URL that's already ranking (example.com/stores/) but curious if PA, backlinks, and trailing slashes should be considered also. We of course would not 301 the URL with the tracking parameters. 🙂 Thanks for your help!

Long URLs
My website is hosted by Hubspot. When I create a blog, the URL, as an example, would be: http://www.boxtheorygold.com/blog/bid/27061/Manage-By-the-Numbers/ Instead I am getting the URL below. Google Webmaster tools and moz see this as an error and google says it can't crawl because it is a non-existent page. Users cannot see this page, and Hubspot can't figure it out, but google and moz see it. This problem is occurring on about 25 blogs out of 150. Any ideas? And thanks.

On Page Grading Not Working
I am not getting any results in on page grading. When I click on add keywords a list of keywords appears that I have previously entered. They have tick boxes next to them and you can filter them but SEO moz is not automtically creating grade reports? Any ideas? Obviously I've set it up wrong somehow.

URL Encoding
HI SEOmoz has finished crawling the site and surprised me with nearly 4k of 301's all the 301 are on my deal pages Example of the 301 http://www.economy-car-leasing.co.uk/van-leasing-deals/ford/transit-lease/transit-lwb-el-minibus-diesel-rwd-high-roof-17-seater-tdci-135ps%3D586165 as you can see from the above URL it returns a 404 but the URL is actually sent as below http://www.economy-car-leasing.co.uk/van-leasing-deals/ford/transit-lease/transit-lwb-el-minibus-diesel-rwd-high-roof-17-seater-tdci-135ps=586165 For some reason SEOmoz crawler is converting the = to %3d and reporting its a 301 even though it returns 404 Is this an error on SEOMOZ part ? or is there an error on my site Googlebot when i do a fetch as Google bot returns all on with the = sign and every other tool i have tried is ok too so not sure why SEOMOZ is seeing it different and then adding the URL as a 301 I am hoping this is just a glitch on the report tool part as im struggling since a recent site 301
