Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Peter, One additional point about adding keywords is if you add keywords during campaign creation, we will do a rush collection and return those ranking results within the hour. If you add keywords after the campaign is created, the data for those keywords will not be collected until the next campaign update. We hope that helps, let us know if you have further questions we can assist with.

I checked the page source. You can do this by heading to any web page, right clicking and selecting "view page source". In Shopify, you can output the canonical url using the canonical_url object. I found this here: https://www.shopify.com/partners/blog/canonical-urls {{ canonical_url }}

It sounds as though you should be OK in that case - if they are all site.com/post, then it shouldn't matter how many categories they are in. In theory you can have Topics and Categories - it all depends on how the site is set up, but I would probably say it's best to focus your efforts on one if I had to guess without knowing the site and all the considerations inside out. Good luck.

Yeah, I don't disagree with you. Algorithmic filtering and ranking doesn't work exactly as intended, and there are ways to work around it as you point out. Generally, cannibalization shouldn't occur, but it does happen in some circumstances.

Hello Sam09, Was your question answered by Jeroen?  Were you asking about the "keyword" meta tag?

You lost me at "keyword density". Alt text should describe the image as if explaining it, as succinctly as possible, to a blind person. If you can get your keyword in there without being weird about it, great. If not, describe the image and move on. There is no "limit" to exceed. And Welderpro is... not correct about having a word in alt text and in the body being a bad thing. Write the content for the user and stop worrying about this stuff. You'll be a much better SEO in the end.

Sam, It's not a bad idea to use your primary terms in  both your H1 headers and in the body of your  copy.  Also make sure to  use them in of your page's meta title.

actually this is an interesting question. I also appreciate how long it will take to update da and pa by moz. Hopefully someone can answer this important question and its original source.

Hey Sacha. If the update was supposed to happen today, sometimes I noticed it refreshes later during the day rather than earlier. If you have any further problems, I suggest you contact Moz Support directly. https://moz.com/help/contact

Hi there, Email to help@moz.com, this is a community forum, none of us know the internal workings of promos etc.

Hi there, KD is not a static metric. It very much depends on who ranks for that search. So, if a website with high DA and great backlink profile starts ranking for it on the first page, then competition goes up, and, therefore, the KD score goes up. Or, even if no new players came to the first page, but if already ranking websites improve their backlink profile, then KD would go up as well. Keep in mind that MOZ's link crawls happen about once a month, so the changes in KD could be more drastic due to that. Makes sense?

Hi there, DA is a relative metric, it changes over time. If your competition is doing more/better work than you, then DA would go down. Here is an excerpt from here (https://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority Since Authority is based on machine learning calculations, your site's score will often fluctuate as more, less, or different data points are used in the calculation — for instance, if Facebook were to acquire a billion new links, everyone's PA and DA would drop relative to Facebook. For this reason, keep in mind that you should always use Domain Authority as a relative metric to compare against the link profiles of other sites, as opposed to an absolute value scoring the efficacy of your internal SEO efforts. Hope this helps.

We're doing that but still no luck. We have more links and reviews and higher DA but we're still not showing up on local. Thoughts?

"Should the area landing pages be child pages and the web design be the parent?" Child in which sense? In the nav? in the site flow? In both scenarios, it's completely up to you. Depends on what UX do you want users to have. "less juice" - again, in what sense? backlinks? the structure has nothing to do with it - external or internal links. Traffic? That'll depend on rankings and other marketing promos.

The backlink profile is robust (with links from huffpost, edu sites, lifehacker, nbcnews.com, etc.). The site has a DA of 40 (per MOZ) and 1.6k linking domains. I can definitely say that the backlink profile is not a detractor from the site.

It's crawler is relatively slow, and because of that old data might appear still. It's normal.
