      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 🙂
