On-page grader question
-
Hi there,
Getting to know the Pro tools and can't find an answer to this. Can someone explain for me please?
Using on page grader, I found a couple pages with an F. I scrolled downWTO where it shows the keyword phrases and under each, the URL.
Clicking on the first keyword "Building site alarms"it tells me off essentially for not optimising the page for that term. The URL is "construction site security systems" which are different to building site alarms which also have their own page. I don't understand why is Moz associating this keyword with this page? I certainly haven't told it to.
Please he

Hey Si,
That report is there because that URL is ranking for the keyword. The On-Page tool reports on any URL that is ranking for a keyword regardless of how optimized it is for that keyword.
I hope that helps.
Thanks!

Hi Joel,
Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately i am still none the wiser. I still don't understand why grader is telling me that the page http://www.compoundsecurity.co.uk/security-equipment/construction-site-security-alarm-systems is badly optimised (page rated as F) when it is actually optimised for 'construction site alarm systems. http://www.compoundsecurity.co.uk/security-equipment/gsm-gprs-wireless-battery-powered-building-site-security-systems is optimised for 'building site alarms'. I can see no reason why.
I am only a beginner at this, so any further advice you can give using words of two syllables or less would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Si

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question. I am not sure it really answers my question. Maybe it does, but i don't understand.I will do some more reasearch.
All the best

Hi there,
Thanks for the question.
You want to remember that the On-Page reports are generated one of two ways. They can be generated manually in the On-Page report card, or, as is the case here, they can be automatically generated from any Keyword/URL combination that is ranking in the top fifty.Essentially that page ranks #3 for that keyword, so it gets an on-page report.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,

The system works to identify the most relevant page to that keyword, and then grade it. So, by not identifying your target page as the one associated with the keyword you have one of two problems:
1. Your appropriate page hasn't been indexed by the Moz Bot.
2. Your appropriate page isn't as relevant as that one.
If your website isn't being indexed properly then you need to adjust your internal linking. If it is being indexed, then you need to take the steps to make your targeted page more relevant to the keyword. Start with the URL, Title and H1.

Hi Everyone! so glad to be here, I had hardly visited the forum and been missing out.

Unable to crawl pages
Hi, I am trying to set up a campaign for our website - www.salvationarmy.org.au however, I can't seem to get a scan of more than three pages. I have tried the following: www.salvationarmy.org.au (only 2 pages) www.salvationarmy.org.au/home (only 1 page) salvationarmy.org.au (only 3 pages) There is a geo IP redirect on www.salvationarmy.org.au but the second domain listed above should resolve the full site. I'm a newbie to SEOmoz so any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Mel

Is the on page optimization tool not working?
i received a grade f for one of my keywords/page. i corrected some of the points but when i tried to submit the form again, it doesn't check off those corrected items. is there something wrong with the tool right now? also, how does the tool work if i'm targeting 2 different keywords for one page? e.g. digital marketing philippines and digital marketing agency philippines I'm pretty sure one of the keywords will have problems with at least 3 critical and high importance on page factors (broad keyword usage in page title, exact keyword usage in page title, etc.) is there an effect if there's a critical factor left unchecked because using both keywords in the title might look redundant?

Adding canonical still returns duplicate pages
According to SEOmoz, several of my campaigns show that I have duplicate pages (SEOmoz Errors). Upon reading more about how to resolve the issue, I followed SEOmoz's suggestion to add rel='canonical' <links>to each page. After the next SEOmoz crawl, the number of SEOmoz Errors related to duplicate pages remained the same and the number of SEOmoz notices shot up indicating that it recognized that I added rel='canonical'.</links> I'm still puzzled as to why the SEOmoz errors did not go down with respect to duplicate page errors after I added rel='canonical', especially since SEOmoz noticed that I added them. Can anyone explain this to me? Thanks,

About private questions
Seems my last private question was on March 23 -- so why would I have to wait until June to ask another? I believe I made a reply right at the first of April, which wasn't answered... and I haven't asked another private question yet... not that I have one now, just wonder why the wait that seems longer than a "calendar month"? _Cindy

SEOMoz only crawling 5 pages of my website
Hello, I've added a new website to my SEOmoz campaign tool. It only crawls 5 pages of the site. I know the site has way more pages then this and also has a blog. Google shows at least 1000 results indexed. Am I doing something wrong? Could it be that the site is preventing a proper crawl? Thanks Bill
