Open Site Explorer Top Pages https Title tag issue
-
Hello, everybody.
I've noticed this strange thing in Top Pages reporting of Open Site Explorer. If i do a report for any website which doesn't have security certificate installed, such as http://www.hyperlinksmedia.com I get normal results, with title tag shown for every page, but, if i do a report for website with Security certificate, such as https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com, report is coming back for non-secure URL version (http:...), so, it says "No Title" for any pages. I wonder, if it influence PA and DA scores.
Although, if i run full crawl test, then i shows all meta and title tags for SSL version of a website's url.
Thanks!

Here is what i got after talking to moz-help people. Thanks to David Lee.
Sorry for the confusion! The pages are not returning a title due to the pages having a 301 re-direct at the time we crawled them which was in November. For any pages with a 301 we will not have any information for the title and we do not show re-directed URLs in the app. If we were to re-crawl the site we will be able to update the data to show the https links.
You can see back in December the site was still resolving the http version which had the 301 re-direct in place: https://web.archive.org/web/20140625093032/http://www.hyperlinksmedia.com/
There are some new links in the queue for us to re-crawl the site so you may see better information after our next index release. It can take 2-3 index updates for them to appear.

Hello Charles, this is Abe from the Moz Help team. I have not seen this particular issue, I think you may have found a bug or unknown limitation of our tool. Can you write in to help@moz.com with this information so that we can try to figure out the cause of the "No Title" labels ? Thanks again for the heads up!

Page Authority higher on my old (redirected) domain than new domain?
Hi everyone. I moved the domain my blog was on about 18 months ago, and it's ranking in Google never recovered. I've noticed in the 'Inbound Links' tool that my old domain (jamescrowley.co.uk) shows a page authority of 26, while my new domain (jamescrowley.net) shows a page authority of 15. Any idea why that would be? 301 redirects have been in place for the whole 18 months, so I'd have thought the authority would have been 'passed on' by now? Many thanks James

My site links to my clients not showing in Moz
I've got a web design business with a site that's been out there for 17 years - www.biztoolsone.com. I've got links to my clients' sites in my portfolio page. The backlinks list for my clients, when I check them in Moz, don't show the links from this site. They always showed in the list until a few months ago. The site has a DA of 59 & PA (for home page) of 50. The spam score is 0/17. I'm having a tough time telling my clients that the Moz backlinks list is accurate when that site doesn't show in the list. The same is true for www.fayettevillenc.biz - this is one I created years ago to generate backlinks. It's got a spam score of 4/17, so I'm a little more understanding of that one. Thanks for any guidance!

Top Pages are all 301
Hi, New to Moz, so sorry if this is a n00b question. I can see on the 'Top Pages' page, that the HTTP status of all my Top Pages is 301, which means they have been permanently redirected. I am trying to find out what they have been redirected from / to so that I can clean them up and make then nice 200s, but I can't see the info anywhere? 😕

Do other sites linking to my page with a low domain authority affect my rankings?
Hello, my page authority 30, I see other page with an authority of 21 for example linking to us. Is this good or bad, does this affect our ranking? A lot of these don't have anchor text, I'm guessing we should reach out to these webmaster to include anchor text with the keywords we want to drive traffic to this page or make as descriptive as possible? Thanks! Laura

Page Authority = 1 of linking page?
I am trying to determine if any of our PR services or inbound links are hurting our SEO. To do this I am using the Open Site Explorer tool and checking some of the URL's that link to us. While doing this I found a page that has a Page authority of 1/100 most other links have a decent authority...does this score mean this page has been penalized by Google? If not what else could a 1/100 mean?

Facebook "likes" not showing up in Open Site Explorer
Hi All: I'm dealing with a company that has 299 Facebook likes, but Open Site Explorer only shows three. I checked the NAP on Facebook and it's correct. Anyone know why this might be happening? I'm worried if Open Site Explorer is not seeing the likes, Google might not as well, for whatever reason. Thanks! Wes
