New pages on my web site
-
I have created web sites that appear somewhere on Google in hardly any time at all,
but I appear to have forgotten something or things are different for pages added recently to an existing website.
I have added a page on a particular subject, optimized it using on page grader, so that I get an A, and a check mark for everything except H1 tags and rel=canonical which my web hosting provider does not support. I do have a check mark for accessible to search engines
The page has the format http://www.domain.com/specific-keyword
It is in the menu, so should have internal links to it, as I understand it.
I have created a new site map, and submitted it in webmaster tools.
Interestingly it says that of the 96 pages only 76 were indexed
is this a clue? and why would they not index a page
I have then shared the page on google plus, facebook, tumblr, pinterest and twitter and some others
In OSE it comes up as domain authority 28 page authority 1, the social media shares do show up in metrics on the right but no links internal or external are shown, they do on other pages I created in the same way.
Is it just a case of waiting or is their something I do to help
thank you

As Ryan mentioned, OSE is updated on a schedule. Our next update is scheduled for March 11th. We try to update it -- barring any technical difficulties -- at least once a month.
-
That has definitely fixed the problem the page is on the second page of google
and I can carry on building it up
Thanks very much
-
Ok my site is back up and the new robots,txt file has been uploaded and submitted to google,
I have tested that the site map is allowing robots.
and it is, but no change yet to the OSE and search results.
I will wait to see if these are any changes
Thanks again
-
hmm I found a robots.txt editor in Google webmaster tools
downloaded the new file and uploaded it to my file manager
then discovered that my whole site had crashed page not found
dunno if I caused it, or the host was already having probems
gotta wait and see now, Their live chat help is also not working and I have sent an email so it does look like it's their problem
How can the robots.txt file have changed if I did not do it
-
You'll want to contact your hosting company or look at their FAQ on how to edit robots.txt. Cheers!
-
actually there is no file of that name in my file manager
-
hmm delete the line?, would it work if I deleted the file upload a blank text file named robots.txt
-
That certainly could be causing problems. It'd be best to delete that line.
-
thanks for the quick response I looked in robots.txt and found this:
User-agent: * Disallow: Sitemap: http://www.realsingingtelegrams.com/sitemap.xml is that causing the problem?
-
GWT very infrequently shows a 100% of pages submitted via sitemap matching pages indexed, but there could be a few very reasonable reasons for this. For example, you could be disallowing a portion of pages in your robots.txt file that are listed in your sitemap.
As for OSE explorer, you're most likely looking at link data from prior to the last update. In that case, any linking and work done won't be recorded by OSE until the next update is made live. Here's the latest on their scheduling: http://moz.com/products/api. Short answer: keep doing what you're doing, and wait a bit on the reporting numbers to update. Cheers!

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

I mean, we want promote the same "event" but we want understanding where the competitor is already present.

Domain and Page authority dropped on home page
My two strongest links did not show up in the latest Open Site Explorer run. Business.com and BOTW.com...Linking domains went from 21 to 15. Domain dropped 3 pts and Page authority dropped 3 pts I believe. Is there a function in SEOmoz.org that lets you track your domain scores over time? Thanks, Boo

Multiple Page Title Elements?
Greetings, I am baffled by the recommendation I repeatedly receive from seomoz's on-page optimization tool. The web page I am working on only shows one title between <title>and</title> in it's head. However, seomoz is also reading "Pass to multiple" from somewhere. It recommends that I "Avoid Multiple Page Title Elements" and I would like to but cannot find them. Any suggestions? By the way, I inherited this site and am just trying to deconstruct someone else's work. As a novice, I realize there might be some obvious explanation that I am just missing. Thanks!

What do i do when all pages are grade A?
I've used the on page grade and now have all my pages at a grade A for relevant keywords. Most of them are cool, achieveing first page rankings apart from a few massive keywords. So the question is, what's next? What do i do now that I'm at grade A, but perhaps not #1 yet... Cheers -dan
