500 errors showing up differently on moz and google wmt
Hello, Check your website with "Screaming Frog Spider", with it you will get all the info you need ( broken links, duplicated content etc... ). The problem may be already solved but google still has the "cached" version of your website which contains the errors Br //Oliver

Representing categories on my site
Note: I didn't understand your comment that tags should be mutually exclusive. If I have an article about saving money on flowers, why would I not tag that with both "budgeting" and "flowers"? You absolutely would want to tag the article with both "money" and "flowers". Mutually exclusive means there should be no overlap in the meaning of two tags, in this example, "money" and "flowers". Clearly these two tags reference different topics. An example of undifferentiated or non-mutually exclusive tags would be "money" and "cash", or "flower". "flowers" and "flowering". All articles belong to one and only one category, as implied by their URL structure. This creates some challenges because some articles may have some relevance to more than one category but I think I can live with this You could actually replicate the article in more than one category, but you'd have to pick one as the primary and tag the other as canonical. Hopefully this would the exception as opposed to the rule. Am I making sense? Absolutely. Good plan.

Is minor duplicate content on my website okay?
Thanks for the responses guys! I appreciate your help. As for the duplicate testimonial LindaLV, I agree with you completely. But as there are over 100 employee profiles with customer testimonials on chances are slim that anyone would notice. I know its best practice to have them different anyway but my employers would rather it just went up than taking the time to bother their client or re-write it themselves they wouldnt care much for best practice, user experience etc.

Facebook reach being restricted?
Anthony I am glad I'm not alone. I sort of accepted that Facebook was making life hard work for it's posters to shake more money out of us but when organic reach drops from the high hundreds to mid thirties for no apparent reason, you gotta ask what's going wrong! Have a good one

Keyword not ranking but keyword within a phrase is?
Hello, i think that´s totally normal, generics keyword are very hard to rank and they really need time. Focus on long tails, you will rank them much faster and most of them contains a generic term which will be ranked over the time Good luck! //Oliver

Moz Report Not Updated
Hi Everybody, I hope that everyone is having an amazing day and that all is right with the world. As Keszi said, this is an excellent question to email help@moz.com to because you can have a 1:1 correspondence with a customer service representative. Also, we can discuss details concerning the account outside of a public forum. Hopefully this helps and if you have any trouble reaching out to us please feel free to let me know here. Have an awesome day!

Recovering traffic of a directory
That's a tough one. Though it sounds like the issues you've been careful about would mostly be targeting Panda, Penguin has to do more with links. How does your backlink profile look? Maybe run it through Moz's new spam score feature to find any unwanted links.

'And' vs '&'
A quick way to check for an association in Google is to search and see what is highlighted. I chose to search for "Barnes and Noble" who reside on barnesandnoble.com and whose brand is Barnes & Noble. The answer is that no, they are not associated, but that doesn't mean that your site won't show. Obviously Barnes & Noble has established themselves as a brand and will show if you search with and or &.
