Occurrences of Keyword - Report card
-
Hi
WHen I run the report card for a particular keyword - URL its says "Occurrences of Keyword 0" however I there is the keywords in the page at least twice and exact match of keywords x1 ? any help would be appricated. For some reason google is just not indexing any keyword that I have optimized page for either. I have checked and they are all "follow" thanks

Hi Pania,
Any chance you could share the URL and the keyword combination you're using? If you're not comfortable sharing publicly, feel free to write the help team (help @ moz.com) and they should be able to get things sorted out for you.

Hi Pania, has this issue been sorted out?

Hi Pania,
Sorry to hear about the confusion with the On Page report card. In order to help, there's a couple things we can do;
- If you're comfortable sharing, you could post the keyword/URL combination and the community here may be able to diagnose the problem
- Otherwise, this may be a good problem for the help team (help@moz.com) as they will keep all your information private.
Regardless, we'd love to help you get to the bottom of this. Cheers.

I wonder if you might be thinking that placing keywords in the keyword meta tag is what you are supposed to be doing. Be sure that the keywords you are optimizing for are in the body of the page, not just in the meta description tag.
Also as a matter of semantics:
- Google indexes a page regardless of what the page was optimized for (provided, as you mention, it's not prevented from doing so). You can check if your page is indexed by typing this search: site:[your domain.com] or site:[your domain.com/specific_page]
- Google provides results for pages that are optimized for specific keywords and that it determines are the most appropriate for the search query.

Ok, so I think this question is kind of confusing...
On-Page report card only checks for exact match keyword within the page... for instance if the keyword is “whiteboard markers”, it will only search for the exact keywords instead of keywords attached with it... this means if you have used the word “whiteboardmarkers (without space)” or “whiteboard with markers” it will not e considered as the keywords that you are trying to check within the content.
If the keywords available within the content are not exact match they will not be counted as keywords in this report card!
If you are using the exact match keyword and Google or Mozbot cannot read your content at all then maybe you are using iframe to display the content on the page or some similar factor.
Hope this helps!

Lag time between MOZ crawl and report notification?
I did a lot of work to one of my sites last week and eagerly awaited this week's MOZ report to confirm that I had achieved what I was trying to do, but alas I still see the same errors and warnings in the latest report. This was supposedly generated five days AFTER I made the changes, so why are they not apparent in the new report? I am mainly referring to missing metadata, long page titles, duplicate content and duplicate title errors (due to crawl and URL issues). Why would the new crawl not have picked up that these have been corrected? Does it rely on some other crawl having updated (e.g. Google or Bing)?

Search Volume in Keyword Rankings Page
Is there a way to show search volumes for keywords in the Keyword Rankings tab page? A lot of times keywords we are ranking for are added to our campaign, and it would be very useful to see the search volumes within that grid. That way we could sort by the search volume and determine which keywords are worth targeting and optimizing for. I've had this ability with other software in the past and would be a great option for either Moz Pro version or the new Beta that is coming out. Which I'm still waiting for my invite BTW:)

SEO Moz Rank Report
Anyone else noticing the rank reporting seems to be off? My reports are showing "not in top 50" for some keywords that my site is on page one for. Not in places listings either because I know that can throw things off! Anyone?

On-Page Optimization Report: How Are Keywords Chosen?
Apologies if this has already been covered 100 times! Last month I set up a new campaign, and so far the On-Page Optimization tool has only crawled and graded three of my pages so far. I assume it takes time for more pages to be covered? But, here's my real question: I see that the tool is giving my pages grades based on certain keywords, but the tool itself seems to be deciding which keyword to use in grading each page. To use a made-up example, my example has a page about leather gloves, a page about wool mittens, and a page about cotton mittens. The last one is supposed to be optimized for the keyword "cotton mittens," but the tool is grading it based on how well it's optimized for "wool mittens." I can go into the drop-down at the top of the page and change the keyword that the page is graded on, and that gives me a new grade, but only for that instance. The next week, the tool is back to giving the page an F for "wool mittens." Is that because the tool decides that "wool mittens" is the keyword for which the page has the best chance of ranking, no matter what my intentions are? is there any way to permanently tell the tool that I want the page to target "wool mittens" as its main keyword? Thanks in advance for your help!

Significance of SEOmoz`s keyword difficulty
Hello everybody, currently, I am working on a project that will be available in multiple languages. My problem concerns the difference of the German and English language in relation to the SEOmoz`s Keyword difficulty (KWD). I just finished my German keyword research and got a satisfying collection of keywords I can use according to the KWD, page/ domain authority, Backlinks and Onpage-check. Now, as I am doing my research for the English market I find it hard to find any appropriate keywords with a satisfying KWD. I imagined the ranking on the English market to be much harder but now I doubt to ever rank for any useful, effective keyword on my list, because most of them are over 70 (some important over 80). According to the research it seems to have something to do with the authority strength of the pages, trust, etc, because they do not have more backlinks. Since they are query independent it is very hard for me to get a feeling for those metrics (I am new at SEO). So here are my questions: Due to your experiences, is it even possible to derank such pages or should I simply save the effort? How significant is the SEOmoz`s KWD? Would you always do Onpage optimization (text, internal linking) in case you earn more trust, authority, etc in the future, just to have your site optimized on the best keyword possible, even though you know that you cannot rank for that keyword (Cue: User-experience)? Or would you switch to less significant words (e.g. flashcards -> index cards) where you have a chance to rank but which is not that effective with traffic? Or focus on longtail, if possible? Many thanks

Bing Not Complete in Ranking Report
Curious as to what the "FRI" image means under Bing on my Keyword Ranking reports? I saw this on Friday and assumed it hadn't crawled yet (as it was to set to crawl on Friday Jan 27, 2012) but here we are Monday AM and I'm still seeing the same thing. Glf4F.jpg

Do you track both plural and singular variations of your keywords?
Howdy, In trying to make the most of the keyword tracking slots we get with the SEOmoz tool our discussion turned to the importance of tracking both variations of search terms that could be plural or singular. The example is that we run a local business search database so we target search terms like "chicago pet stores" and "chicago pet store", however the language of our site almost always uses the plural version of the business category. On one hand we want to know exactly how we rank for variations of search terms, but on the other, with the number of categories we have we could be tracking thousands upon thousands if we included every variation ("pet store chicago", "pet stores in chicago", etc.) So what say ye fellow optimizers? Is it worth tracking variations of search terms or do you find that Google is smart enough in coalescing the intent of similar search variants that tracking against the most commonly searched one is enough? Thank you all!
