Occurrences of Keyword - Report card

[summer300]

Hi

WHen I run the report card for a particular keyword - URL its says "Occurrences of Keyword 0" however I there is the keywords in the page at least twice and exact match of keywords x1 ? any help would be appricated. For some reason google is just not indexing any keyword that I have optimized page for either. I have checked and they are all "follow" thanks

Ok, so I think this question is kind of confusing...

On-Page report card only checks for exact match keyword within the page... for instance if the keyword is “whiteboard markers”, it will only search for the exact keywords instead of keywords attached with it... this means if you have used the word “whiteboardmarkers (without space)” or “whiteboard with markers” it will not e considered as the keywords that you are trying to check within the content.

If the keywords available within the content are not exact match they will not be counted as keywords in this report card!

If you are using the exact match keyword and Google or Mozbot cannot read your content at all then maybe you are using iframe to display the content on the page or some similar factor.

Hope this helps!

I wonder if you might be thinking that placing keywords in the keyword  meta tag is what you are supposed to be doing.  Be sure that the keywords you are optimizing for are in the body of the page, not just in the meta description tag.

Also as a matter of semantics:

• Google indexes a page regardless of what the page was optimized for (provided, as you mention, it's not prevented from doing so).  You can check if your page is indexed by typing this search:  site:[your domain.com] or site:[your domain.com/specific_page]
• Google provides results for pages that are optimized for specific keywords and that it determines are the most appropriate for the search query.

Hi Pania,

Sorry to hear about the confusion with the On Page report card. In order to help, there's a couple things we can do;

1. If you're comfortable sharing, you could post the keyword/URL combination and the community here may be able to diagnose the problem
2. Otherwise, this may be a good problem for the help team (help@moz.com) as they will keep all your information private.

Regardless, we'd love to help you get to the bottom of this. Cheers.

Hi Pania,

Any chance you could share the URL and the keyword combination you're using? If you're not comfortable sharing publicly, feel free to write the help team (help @ moz.com) and they should be able to get things sorted out for you.
