Will the Pro tool be updated to reflect the new meta description length?
-
Hi, I'm wondering if and when the tool will be updated for the above purpose - I'm currently testing it out with a view to purchase a subscription and have onboarded a couple of clients, but the reports are coming back with meta description length errors, but as I'm sure you know the "legal" length of these was recently increased to I believe 320 characters. Any insight here would be awesome - thanks so much!

Thanks for the quick response Dave - looking forward to it!

Hey! Dave from the Help Team here,
we are currently running some tests internally to try and determine what is the optimal length now for Meta Descriptions. Once we have some conclusive results we will update our tools. We should have a blog post coming out soon about it, so stay tuned!

Is there a moz tool to optimize original advertorial content?
We are launching a new module that will involve paid advertorial along with unpaid articles. Does Moz have a tool that will help us with optimizing these articles for the English speaking Hong Kong market? We are not interested in optimizing for the US or other markets as people there would not be searching for the content we are producing so the optimization would not be very relevant. Example: https://hongkong.asiaxpat.com/other/263101/guide-to-buying-and-riding-a-motorcycle-in-hong-kong/

Is there a way to turn off Meta Noindex warnings?
My site is Wordpress, and indexing tags, categories, dates, etc. just ends up causing potential duplicate page content, and so using the advised SEO Yoast plug in suggestion, we have set those type listings to noindex. However now MOZ flags me with 1.7k+ noindex warnings. I know it is not hurting anything, but is there anyway to disable that warning to clean up my crawl error report?

Including "Volume" on the Tracked Keywords Overview Page in Moz Pro
I've searched Q&A but I did not see where this question has been asked before, so hopefully I'm not repeating a question that has already been asked (and answered). For the past couple of years I have been using Conductor Searchlight as our SEO toolset, however recently I have made the decision to switch to Moz Pro. My question is regarding the Tracked Keywords Overview Page. In the current display, the Overview Page shows Keyword, Location, Universal Results, Rank, URL and Optimize. Has there every been any consideration to also include Volume? One of the nice features of CS Keyword Overview page was that I was able to view the rank of all my keywords, and the volume of each, at the same time. We currently track 275 keywords. Some keywords are obviously more important than others. The CS Overview Page allowed me to quickly scan through the list of keywords, see the ones that were within striking distance of page one (by rank), and since I could also see the volume at the same time, it also allowed me to prioritize which keyword to focus on. If two keywords were both ranked "11", but one had triple of volume of the other, it makes sense to focus on the one with the greater volume. From Moz's Tracked Keywords Overview Page I can drill down and get the "Volume" information that I'm looking for (and lots of other really good information), but I have to do it for each individual keyword. Moz Pro is a great SEO tool and the information available is amazing. The switch from CS has been an easy one, but CS did have some features that I liked, and being able to see both rank and volume on the Overview Page was one them. Any information, suggestions, or work-arounds regarding my question is appreciated. Regards Scott

Idea for the new on-page tool in Pro
Hello, I just ran about something, which looks like a minor change (at least to me, but i totaly get, that what looks like a minor change to the outsider might in fact be a big deal from the developers view) but could easily enhance productivity with the new onpage-tool. In the overview of tracked on-page reports, I think it would be a great idea, to show the number of unsolved suggestions next to the score. Additionally, I'd love to flag some unsolved suggestions on a single page as "ignored". Why should I ignore a suggestion? For example I'm working for a customer, who is using a pretty old e-Commerce System. Therefore there is no possibilty to easiely add canonical tags. Also on some pages, it is not feasible to get below the 100 links per page threshold. On Pages, that list all products of a certain brand, I naturally get the "avoid spamming" suggestion regarding the brand-name Some Pages adress Keywords with german Letters like ÄÜÖß, which cannot be found in the page URL (while Google does get that "über" and "ueber" are the same thing). So there are cases where I can't - or simply don't want - to solve the suggestion. Now it happens almost every week to me, that I see keyword ranking, lets say, at 7 with a score of something like 87. The usual instinct is to click the report to look for the last tweaks. Often then I realise, I checked this report few weeks ago and can't or won't do anything regarding the remaining suggestions. If it would have something like "3 unresolved suggestions (+ 2 ignored)" standing next to each score in the reports overview, it would be my personal usability dream come true - since the number of open suggestions is more important to me then the score. To make it even more aweseome, add a simple filter: "Only show Reports with not-ignored unresolved suggestions". Whoohooo, that would make you one happy customer! Maybe that is something, many people would enjoy to see in an update. Cheers, Christian P.S. sorry for my bad englisch - hopefully you got the idea. unbenannt-3.jpg.html
