Just because it's made for PPC doesn't mean it can't rank on it's own. If there are things you can to to the page that will not negatively affect your conversion rate then by all means fix them and index, follow the page.
btw, you could probably noindex, follow instead of noindex, nofollow.

The report card is for SEO rather than PPC, so do not worry about getting a B because of the nofollow, noindex issue.
However if the number of pages you are creating for PPC is just a few and the process is manageable I would still run the PPC pages through the report card as it may help ensure the page is going to get the best quality score for the PPC results.
I hope this helps

If the URL is just a PPC landing page, I wouldn't even bother running it through the on-page report card tool...

Unsolved On page grader
All of my keywords score a 53 using the on page grader. When I look at the notes it indicates I don't have the keyword in question anywhere on the page which, while true in some cases, is not always factual. Does anyone have a similar experience?

Unable to crawl pages
Hi, I am trying to set up a campaign for our website - www.salvationarmy.org.au however, I can't seem to get a scan of more than three pages. I have tried the following: www.salvationarmy.org.au (only 2 pages) www.salvationarmy.org.au/home (only 1 page) salvationarmy.org.au (only 3 pages) There is a geo IP redirect on www.salvationarmy.org.au but the second domain listed above should resolve the full site. I'm a newbie to SEOmoz so any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Mel

Very Slow Advanced Reports
Hello All - I've been running some Advanced Reports again lately, and they seem much slower than I remember from last time I ran some. Currently I've got one (Inbound Links) report at 2,500 out of 10,000 links retrieved through LSAPI, and it's been at that point for about 6 hours. Did something get cloggered on the reports, or is it this just the expected performance?

On-Page URL
Hopefully I am missing something basic... I can't see how to specifically add and delete On-Page reports. It seems like running a report adds it but how to delete? Also, how does one change the URL for a report? I have re-organized some pages and can't seem the get the on-page report to keep my URL change. Here is what I tried. From the On-Page report card for a keyword I changed the URL and ran the test. Test runs ok but if I navigate back to the summary my old bad URL is still there.

Why do pages with canonical urls show in my report as a "Duplicate Page Title"?
eg: Page One
Moz Pro | | DPSSeomonkey
<title>Page one</title>
No canonical url Page Two
<title>Page one</title> Page two is counted as being a page with a duplicate page title.
Shouldn't it be excluded?0
