Hi,
I see but it can be a reason, they are identical. Try to change twitter and property and check. It is possible that SEO MOZ crawler/scaner looks only for "description" ?
-
That's funny coz twitter:description and OG:Description are two different metas, not the same as description
-
Hi,
As I see in the code you have exactly the same descriptions
"A photographic collection of hunting animals. See how these built for the kill creatures rule the jungles. A nature photography extravaganza."
for:
meta name="description"
meta name="twitter:description
meta property='og:description'
and it can be a reason.

MozBar in Chrome hides the top of the web page
I prefer the MozBar at the top of the browser. When using the Firefox browser the MozBar does not hide any of the web page. When using the Chrome browser the MozBar (depending on the site) often hides the top portion of the web page. Is there a way I can use the MozBar at the top of Chrome and get the same functionality as Firefox? Best,

How accurate is the MozBar "Followed Link Highlighter"
I'm currently doing some research on blogs to guest post on and I want to make sure they are providing DoFollow links out. are the green links displayed from the MozBar simply links that don't contain the HTML element "NOFOLLOW" or is it more in depth tan that? according to this article there are TONS of different ways that people can place a NOFOLLOW link on their site http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/identify-nofollow-juiceless-links-guide.html Thanks

Strange nothing site ranking
Hi There. If you check who ranks for "credit cards" there is a website https://www.woolworthsmoney.com.au/ that is in position #5 This is a highly competitive keyword, but OpenSiteExporer.org cannot give me any backlinks for it. it says "No Data Available for this URL" The same thing happens in Market Samurai - no data 1. What are these guys doing that the others are not? 2. How come OSE can't pull any data for it?

Strange Website Activity
Hello, I have been building websites for about 4 months now and finally had my first real success with a website. I found a niche that I was able to get on the first page with. This site was fine and then boom it dropped to #17 around the time of the recent Google changes. So I just thought it was that, I decided to add it as a campaign on here. This is when I noticed that the pages were not being crawled. So being new at all of this, I researched that. Of course, the main things were is the privacy and robots.txt. It is running on wordpress and I know not to set the blog to private, but I wasn't familiar with how to edit the robots.txt. I found a good plugin that easily allowed me to set the text to allow all bots. It seemed to be set to the normal wordpress settings before, and I never had a problem with any of my websites not being crawled. Anyway, once I just set it to allow all bots on ALL of my website, the pages started being crawled again. My traffic went back up and I was on the first page all day yesterday. Today, so far big drop off. So, I deleted the campaign and set up a new one. Sure enough no pages crawled yet. I made some security changes using Bulletproof Security and another plugin to see if that effects it. Nothing yet. I am just really confused as to what is going on, so if any of you have any ideas that would be great. It is a simple site, and I made some changes like theme when I was trying to figure out why the pages weren't being crawled. So it is not the most beautiful design right now. Also, I try my best to put up well-written useful content, so I don't think that is the issue for the rankings drops. I don't have many if any actual backlinks yet because of the newness of my site, could be the reason for it acting strange BUT none of that explains the pages not being crawled at the same time my site drops????? Sorry so long but had to explain it all! Thanks in advance to anyone who has anything to say about this situation! Edit: I should clarify, I put the the security plugins on yesterday while I was on the first page and have deleted them to see if that allows the pages to be crawled. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

Why can't we access metrics in the API that are available in the mozbar?
For example, the Chrome/Firefox mozbar uses peid (Root Domain External Links) but the api doesn't allow this. I've done a little bit of reverse engeniering and it looks like the accessID for the mozbar (when logged in as a pro member) is "pro-xxxx". Does this mean that each pro account has its own accessid/secret key? If so, when will pro members have access to that? I've created a tool that I use for deciding which expired domains to buy and it uses all of the free metrics - but I find myself having to do one extra step to get the peid (navigating to ose). It doesn't make much sense that the metric is available to me when I'm using the mozbar logged in as a pro member (which I pay for), but not apart of the API.
