      Hi,

      I don't really understand your first question - do you require assistance with SEOMoz? SEOmoz has a great help file you should take a look at: http://www.seomoz.org/help

      Plus you can always contact the moz help team, which are always er...helpful 🙂

        Hi Michael. Yes.. I've been looking for an answer but didn't get it.. I'll try to continue trying to found out.

        the  "gray checked" icon.. I don't know what exactly that means...

          Organic rankings are based on many additional factors (server speed, engagement, usability) and so on that may not be factored in with the 4 metrics mentioned.

            The guys at SEOmoz usually do get back to you, sometimes there is a delay as they get pretty busy.

            The grey checked area - you mean the ticks in your example? This is highlighting the website that has been deemed as having the best metric of the sampled sites.

            Not looked into your site, but there could be some reasons that you are in 6th even though you appear to have 'better' metrics than the sites above you.

            Its also worth noting that DA, and PA are just measurements. Generally having higher scores for all three are a good indicator that you should rank higher, buts its not a guarantee.

            You should focus on producing some compelling content add it to your site. Be consistent with it, and then be patient.

              Humm... I got it..thank you... It seems like I need to do something to improve the results... We focus on the way the user uses our website, the time that the user stay navigating and things like that.. I really don't know whats going on!

              But do you think that the server speed really counts at the point of setting the site to 6th?

              tks

                Hi Michael.. thank you for your answer!

                I can imagine how busy the SEUmoz are everyday.. Its ok!

                Thank you for the explanation about the checked area...  I got it now!

                About the results.. I really don't know whats going on! We've been at 1st for years and now going to 6th and going down and down!

                We did focus the time the user stay online and actually is about 4~6 minutes which is very good in our segment.. and We'll try to improve that still more.

                And whats is the DA and PA bytheway, Michael?

                thank you so much

                  Page load speed was a factor Google mentioned they take into consideration a couple of years ago, so as standard you should look into this - not just for Googles sake and the sake of your ranking, but to make the site a pleasant experiance for your users.

                  As I mentioned, back this up with decent content.

                    DA - Domain Authority

                    PA - Page Authority

                    This is a great whiteboard Friday that will help you understand more on this: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/whiteboard-friday-domain-authority-page-authority-metrics

                      Got it! I'll try to improve that, Do you think that 1 to 1.5 seconds is too long for a user to navigate?

                      Out time Never reaches 2 seconds for page to be fully loaded.

                      Tks Michael

                        That would seem like a pretty decent load time - anything sub 2 would be on the right lines.

                            I'd work towards making a great user experience on the site. Look at improving title tags, calls to action, improve the descriptions of the properties and some additional content. Personally I'd remove the ad-sense 🙂
