      Hello everyone!

      I am fairly new to the MOZ tools but I'm finding some inconsistencies in the On-Page grader.. I have tested several pages (some of which I know have doos and bad SEO) and the results I keep getting are very volatile.

      For example, I have looked at testing http://www.sportingwebdesign.com for "Sports Website Design" - one minute it gave me a grade F, then then 2 minutes after I refresh the page and it gave me a grade A.. I am very confused and a bit worried that this tool may be a bit volatile...

      Anyone have any thoughts?

        I have found that when you test a website on a granular level like with Moz you will see fluctuations.

        This is normal however if you see a large downward spiral well obviously something to worry about.

        Use Raventools.com, SERPS.com not as a replacement because they're not for Moz however they will I believe show you that fluctuation is completely normal. You can also use http://spydermate.com/  along with authoritylabs.com

        please keep in mind none of these will replace what is offered here however they will show you that this is a normal thing. or they will show you you have a big problem. Hopefully you'll just have normal fluctuation.

        Sincerely,

        Thomas

          Thomas, are you referring to the on-page grader, or to ranking reports?
