How long after 301 redirect does seomoz toolbar take to update?
-
I 301 redirected a page to a new URL that is better optimized for my content. However as soon as I did this upon visiting the page, my browser's seomoz toolbar "page authority measurement had fallen to "1" it was previously in the 40's... Does anyone know how long it takes for the seomoz toolbar PA rank to refresh on a 301 redirect? I see where seomoz says the redirected page will retain between 90-99% off its link juice. I'm fine with losing a little if it would mean long term gains in terms of good on-page seo. Any ideas?

AIGB,
First we need to know which page? IF you redirected www.example.com/old-page to www.example.com/new-page and you did so in the .htaccess file, then when using OSE, there are a couple of things to consider: First OSE crawls roughly once a month. The next is scheduled for Valentine's Day. So nothing will show up different prior to that.
Next, once you make the change, it will not be instantaneous. We do this fairly often with redesigns on sites where we are taking over the site and doing the SEO. We just made the switch on one roughly two weeks ago and did a url to url switch (actually to a similar site/ same product). Today I notice that we are up slightly in PA and there are two new links on the new site.
Typically, it will take two to three months to see the majority of the juice on the new url. A law firm we changed in late August shows that all has moved to the new site and the site has higher DA and home page PA than the original. While the old site shows slightly reduced DA and PA (which it will lose over time).
In OSE if you do the search on the old url, it will tell you that hey this redirects to new url. Do you want this or the old one? You can then look at either.
If you did this and it is showing a PA of 1 there is something not correct. I would need to see the two urls to be aware of what is happening. but you should not be seeing any change prior to the update unless the 301 was placed prior to the last one.Best.

When is the Chrome MOZ-toolbar going to be updated? It flaws into other website designs.
Hey, The MOZ toolbar destroys the layout of a lot of sites, which makes it very annoying always switching from top to buttom, then back up, etc. from website to website. This doesn't happen here, but on really a lot of other websites.

Stupid question: why SEOMOz has become MOZ?
According to their On-Page Report Card the URL should include the main keyword i.e. SEO in their case, so why do they get an F grade If I check their main page www.moz.com for the keyword SEO? Thanks for your comments!

Is SeoMOZ Crawl Diagnostics wrong here?
We've been getting a ton of critical errors (about 80,000) in SeoMoz' Crawl Diagnostics saying we have duplicate content in our client's E-commerce site. Some of the errors are correct, but a lot of the pages are variations like: www.example.com/productlist?page=1 www.example.com/productlist?page=2 However, in our source code we have used rel="prev" and rel="next" so in my opinion we should be alright. Would love to hear from you if we have made a mistake or if it is an error in SeoMoz. Here's a full paste of the script:

Bing Algo Updates?
I am of the belief it is bad to be "too" Google-centric. Many people have found that out with Panda, Penguin and Venice in recent years - all eggs in one basket and after one update you are out for the count (if you we're naughty of course). Anyway, That aside I enjoy looking at are reminding myself about Google Algo Updates using the SEOMoz Google Change Log (a bit like Gina Tripani's change log on This Week in Google, but only more Algo focused) - http://www.seomoz.org/google-algorithm-change So, my question - is there a version of Bing somewhere out there?

Do I have to set up new SEOmoz campaigns after URL switch?
We switched hundreds of pages on our website from dynamic to static URLs (and optimized the static URLs for keywords), and did 301 redirects to the new URLs. Also submitted a new sitemap to Google. This was about a week ago. For my existing SEOmoz campaigns that have crawled since then, it looks like SEOmoz is still looking at all of the old dynamic URLs. Do I have to set up new campaigns with the same keywords in order to get SEOmoz to look at the new URLs, or will the SEOmoz crawlers figure it out over time? Or am I doing something wrong? Thanks for your help!

SEOmoz LDA tool experience?
http://www.seomoz.org/labs/lda Does anyone presently use this tool as a regular part of their SEO analysis? Does anyone have any updates regarding this tool? It is still in the lab despite no updates for over 6 months. Is it being retired? Or promoted to production? If you do use the tool, what % of relevance is your goal when optimizing pages?
