Question to SEOMOZ when will the On-Page Optimization tool be Updated

Hi,

When will your On-page Optimization Tool be updated to reflect the Over Optimization Penalty which is coming.

I would think that grading out at an 'A' will have adverse effects.

i dont think that waht the overoptimization penalty is about, its about spamming, keywoprd stuffing, buying links that sort of stuff, nothing that the on-page report would suggest.

Ok as predicted the google update has happened and the higher the grade with seomoz On-page Optimization the lower the page rank. That is my experience Once again, when will the tools reflect the Recent changes? I suggest that optimizing to the tool can be detrimental to rankings

[AlanMosley]

no i dont think it can, It certainly wont affect PageRank, page rank has nothing to do with on-page see http://thatsit.com.au/seo/tutorials/a-simple-explanation-of-pagerank

As i stated before, the over optimization penalties, are for un-natural links, keyword stuffing, not for having a well optimized page.

SEOMoz on-page, advises you not to keyword stuff. the over optimization penalties would be better named, spam penalties.
