Q&A Forum Slow Performance
-
The dashboard works great, but the time to get a link to respond in the Q&A forum is painful.
I am on a 15Mb connection and have an SSD hard drive. It is only this site that is slow. Is anyone else experiencing this? Or are you all very patient?

Hi Chris and everyone else,
Thanks for the comments. I noticed some slow response times yesterday. Right now things seem fine from where I am, but I'll drop a note to the developers and have them take a closer look at things and see if we can make sure the slow response times don't happen again.
Thanks!
Keri

Hi Chris yes we used to be hosted 100 percent on Amazon and I'm talking about much the form but the tools everything and now it's a hybrid system so everything runs smoother and much more quickly I'm speaking in general about the entire monster. Not just the forms. I guess there was issue with the hard drives burning out and all sorts of stuff
-
only the forums are slow. The dashboard responds like a Web app should, very responsive.
But clicking on any link in the forum, such as to browse a category is painful. I open another browser and go look at another page on a different monitor while the forum loads.
Not a pretty or fun experience. Hope there is a cure. Thomas mentioned it was worse?
yes, it could be worse than it is. I'm just spoiled now that I'm not on dial up any longer.

I do agree with you man I think that it was though a smart move when they switched hosting from Amazon from what I understand there was quite a bit of trouble with the system there and now that were with I believe wow host we are getting very high-quality uptime and decent service in my opinion. Good things come to the come to those who wait So says Folgers I believe for some commercial

Thomas, I agree that the forum is a great product -but it is pretty slow

Hi Chris are you saying that most of the other sites on the network just fine? And that the only time you're really Experiencing here this when you actually hit the reply button or using Q&A form? If that is the case is most certainly site rather than your connection or your computer set up. Try using it on your smartphone or another device and see what you think. I think that all in all What SEOmoz has created here is much more complex and better then the regular bulletin board so there has to be on more loading time when anyone responds or posts to Q&A there's probably a lot of Java or other stuff going into effect taking up time. But the wait is worth it all the best, Tom

I'm with you Chris - the forum has been slow of late - but the wait is well worth it

Are AMP pages affecting mobile search visibility?
Hello fellow Mozzers. I've recently seen a fairly hefty drop in search visibility on Google mobile, from 12.8% to 4.1%. Desktop visibility is unaffected. The same search visibility drop is echoed in SEMRush. However, Google Analytics shows that our site traffic from mobile hasn't changed. The only thing I can think of is that we recently launched AMP pages. I know Google sometimes caches AMPs so they’re served off google domains. Could that mean that the cached version of the page is ranking rather than our own? That would explain the drop in visibility but stable traffic I think?! What other explanation could it be? Many thanks in advance, Kit

Forums and soical network pages - link analysis
Hi, I am working on reputation management project and i reach the point when i found that forums pages and social pages are hard to analyse their links and page rank. for example if you search these kind of pages on http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/ , it wont show any result And if you try to find the page rank on Moz toolbar it will show 1 pagerank How would you do guys when u are in this situation, Do you consider these kind of pages different than normal pages? Thanks

Why has my MozTrust & DA dropped
Hi The company i work for are in the middle of relaunching our product, so during this time we have not been generating much traffic to the site. We are still getting about 800 SEO visits a month, however, as we aren't doing email marketing our site traffic overall has dropped. I have noticed that since October or MozTrust and Domain Authority seems to be dropping. Our DA was at 18 then in the space of a few weeks has dropped to 10. Our Moztrust was at about 3 and now is at 0. Our links to the site seems to be disappearing to according to Moz, however other back linking website are saying they are still there. Could someone maybe shed some light on what i may have done wrong to lose these two things and so quickly. This all happened mid to late October. During the Hummingbird release we were fine! We have also just updated out website with lots of new content. In fact increased it 4x. There are great internal links throughout the site. Thank you

Losing Rankings & Need Help
Hi Guys, I am not sure if anyone else is suffering from the July 4, 2013 update. I know many of us are awaiting to see what happens once the dust settles. I have a couple of issues/questions/statements below. This is the first time any Google update has every affected me negatively and I'd love some ideas or input. 1. I have ranked quite well for nearly 10 years for all my top keywords. Now, after this update, I am disappearing for my top keywords in the SERPS - definitely getting pushed to page two, etc. Can anyone help me discover the reasons? I have a great SEO expert helping me and I know quite a bit, but this has me baffled. My website is Journey Beyond Travel.com I have read MOZ's ranking factors for 2013 and also the recently published report from SearchMetrics. In the last few days, I've added more quality text to the homepage and shortened my page title on the homepage (although Google has been changing my homepage browser title to put my brand name first in the title - and they haven't for my competitors). Over the past few months, I've really cleaned up my link profile to the best of my ability. I've never really taken part in any negative or black-hat practices. I am trying to get more links that use my 'brand' name rather than exact anchor text. I believe I have a natural profile - any thoughts? 2. One thing I notice is the higher ranking of larger brands now (at least in my field). Just because a domain with higher authority creates one page of content, how can that outrank me? I mean, I've got ten years and 600+ darn good articles of content on my website. How can one domain that is very 'general' (for example, well known in the world of travel and not specialized or niche like mine) outrank me? How can it be that Google allows larger brands to outrank smaller ones just because they have more backlinks and domain authority, but no real content to support these pages? Is content truly king? I am thinking about an article: "Google, Brands, and the Death of Small Business Online." Anyone wish to collaborate here? I am not being hatelful or resentful, but I foresee the day when an 'alternative' search engine emerges, doesn't allow crap ads, allows users more flexibility, and brings search to the next level. Not all of us want the big brands and are searching for alternatives that stand out. I ignore them when I am searching mostly. Any thoughts or elaborations? Thanks!

Has SEOMoz considered making it possible to follow a specific Q & A thread via Twitter and/or Email?
I think it would be great if there was a way to follow a particular Q & A thread without having to post a comment. There are so many great topics and discussions in here and sometimes I lose track of some that I'd like to continue following as people post, without having to post in the thread myself. Have you guys (Mozzers) ever considered adding a "Follow this thread on Twitter" or "Follow this thread by email" function? Or is there already a way to do this (without posting), that I just haven't found?

Title Element too Long - Counts ampersand as &
I was wondering if Google counts the ampersand written as '&' as 5 characters or a single one? It seems that Google counts it as a single character and SEOmoz PRO counts it as 5 characters.
