MOZ Toolbar 3.0: Can't Find the Meta Description On My Page, Why?
-
Hey,
The new MOZ toolbar is unable to identify the meta description on any of the pages for my doman www.1099pro.com. Is there any reason that someone can see why that would be?
The tag should be correct on all pages.
Thanks!

The company page would be suited to the rel=publisher tag
The better way to explain the author tag is like a book.
On the back of the book you don't have info on the publisher but the author the same is true here, the tag is to say who wrote the content not who published it thus the two tags.
So you want to use the author tag on the personal profile or who ever wrote it.
in short: use your personal profile.

Almost there. I've signed up for my authorship under all of the companies under the corporation but I am confused about what to do with the author tag.
Ideally, I'd like the Author to show up as my company and not me personally. Does this mean that I put "https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/117986687211195857413/" (my company page) in the Author tag instead of "https://plus.google.com/105918311011763510846/" (my personal profile with my work email)?
I really appreciate all your help!

It won't change the readability of the meta description just saw it.
First off you need a Google plus account in there at the moment you have "WEBSITE Pro, Inc. (www.WEBSITE.com)"
Some really helpful links to help you are here-
https://plus.google.com/authorship
http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/how-to-set-up-google-authorship.html
finally you can test it here -

In short, you just need to put your Google url into the author tag and link the profile with the website.
Any problems let me know.

Thanks Chris,
How should I set the author tag correctly?
I'll give that a shot first.

I'm just guessing but it could be your set up with a canonical to https & the site is https one side note you don't seem to have the author tag set correctly. I'm not sure if at this point if Moz will go into https
Can always give [email protected] a try they may be able to shed some light it could just be some teething troubles.

Source page showsI have 2 h1 tags on my page. I can only find one.
When I grade my page it says I have more than one h1 tag. I view the source page and it shows there are two h1 headings with the same wording. If I delete the one h1 heading I can find, the page source shows I have deleted both of them. I don't know how to get to the other heading to delete it. And I'm off page one of google! Can anybody help? Clay Stephens

Meta Robots query
Hi guys, I was ranking really well on my home page for certain keywords which has all dropped pretty dramatically over the last 3/4 weeks - I think the issue is since since the configuration of Yoast SEO Wordpress plugin. In March (when my rankings were strong) my crawl test showed the top data in the attached image, and in May (now the rankings have dropped severly) they show the bottom data. I don't fully understand canonical and Meta Robots so I am hoping someone can shed some light on the following points. 1. Will the change result in my loss of rankings.

How can I limit the impact of Google's mobile friendly updates on keyword rankings?
Hi everyone, I have a client on a monthly SEO package that is taking a hard hit in the rankings as their website is not mobile friendly. We are currently building a new website for them that will be fully responsive, but face the predicament of how to keep the current site performing relatively well in the rankings in the meantime. The site is generally well optimised and we always follow SEO best practices, so we've hit a bit of a stumbling block as to how to limit any negative impact the mobile friendly updates have on the site. Does anyone have any suggestions for damage limitation? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Missing Meta Description in Pop Up Image Gallery URL
Hi there, Moz has reported that I have a lot of missing meta description in the Pop Up Image Gallery. There are over 150 of these that are missing. The issue is that in our CMS I cannot add meta description to images. I am also not entirely sure why the images I am loading up are generating their own URL like the one below. Possibly that is why Moz is saying it needs a meta description when it is only an image?. An example of the link that has missing meta description that I can't add would be something like this: http://www.domianhere.com/products/PopUpImageGallery/93/1?iframe=true When clicking these links it is purely an image with no text. So basically I am asking how do you add a meta description to a Pop Up image Gallery photo URL and/or possibly why would an image create a custom URL so I have to put in a Meta Description? Hopefully that makes sense, thank you in advance for your help - much appreciated!

Semoz Toolbar
Hi, I had a problem with too many links on a page and I tryed to replace the navigation with one that reloads the subnavigation with ajax to lower the amount of links. After that I used the seomoz toolbar to check the result. And also this tool: http://linkcounter.submitexpress.com/ Linkcounter showed the correct amount (lowered by the number of links hidden with ajax) but the Seomoz-Toolbar showed still the same number as before. Now I am wondering: Does the Seomoz-Toolbar needs time to check the content or does ist just count all links no matter if they are hidden or not. And most important: Does Google counts the ajax Links also? Thanks!

Image Asset pages shown to have Page Authority
When looking at top pages for my site in www.opensiteexplorer.org I'm seeing a bunch of asset pages being listed to have page authority. How could this be? Is open site explorer mistaken?

Crawl Diagnostics and missing meta tags on noindex blog pages
Hi Guys/Gals We do love the Crawl Diagnostics, but do find the missing meta tags ("Missing Meta Description" Tag in this case) somewhat spammy. We use the "All in One SEO Pack" for our blog and it does stick in noindex,follow (as it should) on the pages that is of no use to us. "2008/04/page/2/" and the likes. Maybe I'm wrong but should the Diagnostics tool not respect the noindex tag and just ignore any warnings, since it should really mean that these pages are NOT included in the search index. Meaning that the other meta tags are really useless. Any thoughts?
