  • Houston, As per Moz's help resources  for crawl diagnostics, Moz doesn't actually index pages and your noindex tag will have no effect on their crawl.  Rather, if your pages are blocked by your robots.txt, Moz will not crawl them.

  • Thank you MoosaHemani for your quick answer, that is a relief. I think I will ask the client to delete all errors again and have them check when Google processed the latest sitemap, just in case.

  • Taulia,  the duplicate content indications that your Moz campaign shows for pages that have been 301 redirected are there so you can make sure your redirects are targeting the right page.  They're not actually errors and no, you don't also have to use conanical tags to those pages.

  • Hi ShatterBuggy, It sounds like it's not the sitemap that's the issue, but rather the title tag on the individual pages are missing or empty. Here's the Yoast plugin tutorial section on configuring and optimizing title tags: https://yoast.com/articles/wordpress-seo/#titles -Trung

  • Hi Don I'm afraid labels and filters are only supported in campaigns. I would recommend submitting a feature request to see if it is something others may find helpful. Send your suggestions over on https://seomoz.zendesk.com/forums/293194-seomoz-pro-feature-requests Other customers will be able to see your request and it can help prioritize building it if more interest is seen. Hope this helps!

  • I totally apologize.  I only said that because I've only seen women doing video gigs.  Most feminists consider me one, although I don't.  I believe in total equality, I"m very feminine myself, and HATE how women have and still are being abused all over the world. Where I disagree with a lot of feminists is the language police political correctness stuff. Also you can see the videos beforehand, and sellers can have addons.  I've seen one fivverr gig to get mentioned on a national radio program....but you could pay him up to $550 and get like a 10 minute commercial. The women on fiverr (in the demos at least) look professional, and not picking them because of their attractiveness, but because of their ability to read something and make it seem natural. But yea sorry for the comment.  I was tired lastnight and normally wouldn't use the word "chick".  It's a thing in southern california, but at the same time I wish people wouldn't make such a big deal about words.  That's what gives them so much power.

  • understand. But there are some advanced people who want both . Just follow your competitor. I need both Because of issue and limitation. example you have a system only possible to see up to 10k backlink . But if I need 100k backlink analysis what I can do. also cost too high. No sense with 500$. how its possible majestic only charge 50$ provide us all everything including api access with 5 million backlink. I believe both will be same product in your seo moz. If you survey you will se most people use your competitor link metrics because reasonable and high. as a millionaire company seo experienced I see that how they sell the product. If you test it for few days you will see the response. Thousand of people serious interested your product also use seo moz product improve your sales. Most people want to use both link metrics for serious research.

  • Hi Guys, I don't think its any of those updates...it just strange that my keywords rank well on Google, but not Yahoo and Bing. Could it be a sitemap issue, I am working with my developers to get that fixed and there is no priority and dates on the map. Thank you

  • UPDATE I was just informed by the agency that we are working with that two pages on our website have been compromised. Index.php Hello.php Does anybody have any recommendations for malicious code identification software? Has anybody used the Browseo cloak identification tool? What is everybody's go-to tool for this sort of thing?

  • I agree do 301 to each page and get people to the new site. Overtime they will learn the new site domain and you will gain new links to the new site. I just did the same thing and merged an older well ranking site into a new site a year ago, & did a bunch of 301 redirects from good high ranked pages and then I also did full global 301 from several smaller sites to the new site.

  • Hi, Duplicate content is bad for search because it forces pages on your site to compete with each other for rank. If each tag only contains one post then you are duplicating every post twice - once in the original post and once in the tag which is displaying the same post and only that post. If you use a lot of the same tags for each post, for example you tag every post 'blog' and 'daily’, then those pages will contain the same posts and therefore be duplicate content. It may be worth checking your analytics to see if any of these pages are getting entrances from organic search, which will tell you if the 'duplicate' is outranking the original post. But often this is because that page contains a lot more information on the subject than a single blog post. So you may not be able to replicate that success with a smaller single blog post. As the previous answer stated using a robots.txt indicating Disallow: /tags/whatever2 will tell a spider not to crawl that page, you could do it selectively by disallowing only the tags which are being flagged as duplicates, or disallow all tagged pages from being crawled with Disallow: /tags/* But every site is different and you will need to decide for yourself if your 'duplicate' content is actually harming your site, you might find that those pages are full of keywords naturally and are attracting all your traffic. Hope that helps!

  • I guess the better question would be to look at if they are actually converting. You answered your own question, sort of! Are then worth tracking just because they are sending traffic? No! A keyword is not worth tracking just because it is sending traffic. If the traffic is of too low quality, then incurring a cost to track it is probably not efficient. However, those low quality, high traffic keywords are great to identify to know how to adjust from that point. I.e. should you create a new landing page targeted towards the keyword that is sending a lot of traffic? Are people who are looking for Ice Cream upset when then end up at a place that doesn't sell Ice Cream. That depends. 'Ice Cream' is a very generic keyword and a portion of the traffic searching for that term and landing at a website that doesn't sell ice cream would be upset. However, you'd want to look at the long-tail terms for that keyword and really identify what the traffic is trying to accomplish and why they came to your website. I add keywords from the keyword opportunities list if they achieve the following: Is unique enough from my current list of keywords to warrant tracking (because every keyword tracked through Moz cost me some $) Does it work towards completing one of my goals (i.e. does the keyword drive sales, leads, any valuable traffic) Are my competitors bidding or trying to rank for the term and I should be as well Do I have the room in my Moz account to track the keyword That last one is important because I tend to max out my keyword quota and every new keyword that I add I need to remove other keywords to make room.

  • Envato is a big company with a lot of web assets, so it is really for branding of each / ease of use. Some people that use themeforest might have never heard of codecayon before and vice versa. They also have the size of site to support this kind of layout as well, they literally have 10's of thousands of pages for each site. You also have to consider that during the development of these different sites, SEO was different as well. Exact match in domain names did more than it does now. So having theme, code and so on in the domain name helped back then too.

  • Firstly, we can't thank you enough for the warm welcome and feedback; you've all provided us with invaluable information and reiterated how much there is for us to learn here. We're aware of the importance of driving our brand through interactive content. As has been stated, it's sometimes difficult to initially get started, but there are a lot of good resources out there to help out. Development has been kept in-house so far, and our main focus is to really begin ironing out this side of our business. We're definitely at the right place to do that. Love the insight; thanks again!

  • We run 2 sites on Magento and I've seen these problems before. Problem 1 - this looks like a link to the privacy page (maybe in the footer?) is missing an initial /. Hence it's not being treated as relative and trying to build it onto the existing URL. Problem 2  - shouldn't be an issue as long page has a canonical tag pointing to itself. I tried one of our pages with index.php/XXXX and it resolved and has a canonical tag pointing to it without index.php.
