Yep. They definitely need static content on the home page.

RE: Blog snippets on homepage a potential detriment to rankings?
Yes. The blog posts are relevant and could be construed as supporting text. For example, the home page pertains to a specific area of legal services, but the blog posts discuss legal services in general.
Thank you!

Blog snippets on homepage a potential detriment to rankings?
Hey guys,
I realize similar topics have surfaced before, but mainly related to duplicate content penalties, which is not my concern in this case.
My client is parsing blog snippets to the home page; actually 3 large snippets consisting of of approximately 200 words each. They create at least one fresh blog post per month pertaining to the specific industry. I realize this practice has widely embraced to satisfy the "freshness factor" but I am concerned it could be hindering the ability for the home page to rank for our two targeted phrases.
It would seem that by continually rotating the blog snippets which contain content related to the industry, but not necessarily relevant to the home page's targeted key phrases - combined with the fact that the home page has very slim static content - the bots are attempting to assign new taxonomies of information on a monthly basis.
My thoughts are to create a decent block of static content highly-relevant to the home page's target phrases, while reducing the amount of info. contained in the blog snippets, to perhaps only a headline and date.
Comments and suggestions would be appreciated.

RE: Branded email notifications
Hi Keri,
Thank you for the sharing your thoughts
Yep. I realize there would be a few hurdles to jump, but I figured a talented team of devs like yours could find a solution without too much pain. I am pretty sure I did leave a feature request regarding this issue quite some time ago.Thanks again!

RE: Branded email notifications
Hi Nicci,
I am going to continue pestering you... via the "squeaky wheel" approach

The ability to white label email notifications of new reports is an extremely important component in our quest to achieve consistent and seamless branding for our agency.
As it stands now, we have two options:
a.) Download the white-labeled reports and send to the clients on a one-by-one basis. This approach is not efficient or cost-effective.
b.) User MOZ's automated system which includes MOZ's branding in the outgoing email to the client.
It seems to me, that it would not be a huge deal for your coding team to make this happen for us (your valued Pro customers).
Please pass this along to the powers that be.
Thank you!!!

RE: Branded email notifications
Hi Nicci,
Has there been any progress in this area? I can imagine that it would be too difficult to implement, and I know there are many of us mozers who are eagerly awaiting this feature

Thanks!

Branded email notifications
Hi there MOZ!
Is it possible white label or brand the email notifications as related to scheduled Custom Reports?
Currently, they arrive with MOZ branding. Of course when the report is viewed it has my company branding, but I am looking for a seamless branding approach to deliver to clients.
Thanks!

RE: Redirecting location-specific domains
I think the point of main concern, would be to avoid using the NAP on the landing pages, so as not to cause convolution with the primary domain. Maybe embed the physician's NAP in an image on the landing page...

Connect to Facebook pages
I have established and manage several Facebook pages for various clients.
How do I grant MOZ access to specific pages - without granting overall access to my public Facebook profile?
Thanks!

RE: Ranking for a plural keyphrase, but very poorly for the singluar?
Recall the importance of the page title in establishing page relevance. The page title in this instance is using the plural version of your targeted keyword. Perhaps this is factor alone is influencing the ranking priorities of the search bots and producing the results you are seeing.
I do see the singular version of the keyword appears in several instances on the page, but is wrapped in an
with an
appearing _prior -Â _which struck me as a bit odd.
Sorry, but I didn't have time to dig into linking profiles

RE: Does the trailing slash really matter in terms of passing link juice?
From Google's perspective on the matter, both versions of the url are treated equally; therefore, I can't surmise why they wouldn't pass the same amount or link juice.
An excellent discussion regarding the the two versions of the url may be treated differently by redirects or how they may effect user experience can be found on the Webmaster Central Blog:
