Keyword used 1448 times ? for a Chinese page

[Helpmecloud]

Hi,

I tested my page grade here : https://moz.com/researchtools/on_page_grader_reports/1269197

Keyword : "專案管理軟體" , which means "Project Management Software" in Traditional Chinese.

URL: http://helpmecloud.com/clarizen-introduction.html

But the On Page Grader told me "We found this keyword used 1448 times."

I think the result is wrong, I guess you calculated all Chinese letters separately.

Am I right ? How can I get a correct grade for my page ?

Thansk for help!

Hi William,

I know that Moz struggles with none Latin characters etc. which would be why its struggling. I believe the Moz team are aware of it but I do not know of any fixes yet sorry.  You might find some 3rd party apps can help (though I do not know if they work with Chinese as its not a language I use for SEO)

You cant try Screaming frog for some basic things but you might have to wait for a fix from Moz

If you find anything let us know and I'm sure some one else might find it helpful too!

Sorry I couldn't help you more this time, Good luck!

Hi Helpmecloud!

My name is Erin, and I'm on the Help Team here at Moz. Thanks for reaching out! Pixelbypixel is totally right, our tools have a really hard time reading non-UTF8 characters, which is why you're running into this! Unfortunately we don't currently have any work arounds for this, nor do we currently have anything on our roadmap.

Sorry I can't do more for you on the support side for this one. The good news is we LOVE LOVE LOVE feedback here at Moz. I'll definitely note this for our Product Team. I'd also like to encourage you to post this to our Feature Request Forum! Our Product Team monitors this forum, and they can chime in and let you know whether or not your idea is something we can bake in down the road!

Have a great day!

Erin

Thanks Pixelbypixel and Erin,

I think it's the fundamental of SEO market in Chinese, Japanese, Korea. But, I am not sure it's related to UTF-8 code page ? My page is UTF-8.  I guess it's related the 'phase' of the sentence. It's hard to make index by a simple rule. Moz parser engine don't know a phase is composed of 2 or 3 or 4 characters in a sentence.

For example: "專案管理" , "專案" means 'Project' , "管理" means 'Management', but "專"  "案"  "管"  "理" each single character will be used in other sentences but with different meanings.

It's complex, I think google knew the rule very well. But, at least, you don't need to count each character. Because we will put the keyword by ourselves, we just want to know a phase "專案管理" , we don't care them separately.

Chinese and Japanese market is huge, why don't you hire a asian engineer to do such research ? The ROI will be great !
