MOZ Toolbar 3.0: Can't Find the Meta Description On My Page, Why?
-
Hey,
The new MOZ toolbar is unable to identify the meta description on any of the pages for my doman www.1099pro.com. Is there any reason that someone can see why that would be?
The tag should be correct on all pages.
Thanks!

The company page would be suited to the rel=publisher tag
The better way to explain the author tag is like a book.
On the back of the book you don't have info on the publisher but the author the same is true here, the tag is to say who wrote the content not who published it thus the two tags.
So you want to use the author tag on the personal profile or who ever wrote it.
in short: use your personal profile.

Almost there. I've signed up for my authorship under all of the companies under the corporation but I am confused about what to do with the author tag.
Ideally, I'd like the Author to show up as my company and not me personally. Does this mean that I put "https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/117986687211195857413/" (my company page) in the Author tag instead of "https://plus.google.com/105918311011763510846/" (my personal profile with my work email)?
I really appreciate all your help!

It won't change the readability of the meta description just saw it.
First off you need a Google plus account in there at the moment you have "WEBSITE Pro, Inc. (www.WEBSITE.com)"
Some really helpful links to help you are here-
https://plus.google.com/authorship
http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/how-to-set-up-google-authorship.html
finally you can test it here -

In short, you just need to put your Google url into the author tag and link the profile with the website.
Any problems let me know.

Thanks Chris,
How should I set the author tag correctly?
I'll give that a shot first.

I'm just guessing but it could be your set up with a canonical to https & the site is https one side note you don't seem to have the author tag set correctly. I'm not sure if at this point if Moz will go into https
Can always give help@moz.com a try they may be able to shed some light it could just be some teething troubles.

Why did I not get on page analysis
I signed up last Friday for a 30 day trial and was hoping to get the on page analysis so I could get cracking on it. Moz said the crawl was done but I have no info for on page analysis which I find really useful when I have used this before. Any ideas and are any of the MOZ moderators able to get the system to perform one so I can make changes tonight for the MOZ crawl again tomorrow? Thanks Paul

My moz only one page was crawled
I recently moved my shopping cart from one provider to another and today moz only crawled one page, could this be because maybe google has not indexed it yet or should i be concerned? I pointed the DNS at the new cart monday night if that helps. I would have expected it to be indexed by now

Does the Moz Toolset offer anything like Raven's Backlink Explorer from fresh index
It seems like a useful feature where I can see what backlinks look like right now vs. the last monthly Moz dataset update. That is mostly because my site is new, but wondered if I was missing something. Thanks, Steven

Can overly dynamic URLs be overcome with canonical meta tags?
I tried searching for questions regarding dynamic URLs and canonical tags, but I couldn't find anything s hopefully this hasn't been covered. There are a large number of overly dynamic URLs reported in our site crawl (>7,000). I haven't looked at each of these, but most of these either have a canonical meta tag or have are indicated as FOLLOW, NO INDEX pages. Will these be enough to overcome any negative SEO impact that may come from overly dynamic URLs? We are down to almost 0 critical errors and this is now the biggest problem reported by the site crawl after too many on page links.

Which would you chose? Link on PA56 with 88 OBL's and 80 IBL's or a link on a PA75 with 225 OBL's & 40 IBL (Same Domain)
Which would you chose? Link on PA56 with 88 OBL's and 80 IBL's or a link on a PA75 with 225 OBL's & 40 IBL (Same Domain) Pretty self explanatory. I want to know what metrics SEOMozzers rely on most. If you are not an expert at evaluating links for large scale development please don't muddy the waters on this question with a thin and vague answer.
