SEOmoz metrics vs Panda Algorithm
-
Hey SEOmoz guys,
My question is simple.
Have you re-test your metrics (DA, PA, mR etc) correlation with SERPs in google panda update?
are they still valid in determining authority, trust and popularity in panda update?
are they still usefull?
Thanks!

Hi Yudhis,
With every update of our metrics, which is almost monthly, we adjust them to try and match what we are seeing in the SERPs. As always there are other factors that we might not be aware of that could effect things in the SERP you are looking at but we do readjust things with every update.

Hi Tyler,
Thanks for your reply. So i would like to change my question, how do you think about this metric in panda update?
IMHO, I notice that this metric is not really working anymore or they have less correlation with SERPs today.
The content farmer sites have great seomoz metric score, but they lose their keyword.
So do my website, yesterday when google panda rolled out world wide, i lose 60% my UV, and my long tail keyword drop from page 1 to page 3 or 4.
My metric was not too bad, i have DA 53, mR 6.10 dan mT 6.20.
My competitor SERPs who has less metric score than mine still on page 1.
So i conclude that this metric has less correlation in determining website quality in relation with google's high quality sites algorithm http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2011/04/high-quality-sites-algorithm-goes.html
Thats only my opinion. CMIIW.
Please share your opinion about this metric in panda algorithm..
Thanks in advance!

SEOmoz staff and associates do monitor the Q&A and often respond. I don't know the answer to this question, but I'll get someone who does know the answer to come in and contribute, as I'm sure others would like to know the answer. If you sent a tweet to @seomoz they're also likely to respond there.

Getting my top keywords separated out in SEOmoz reports
I am using the standard functionality to produce weekly Moz reports. There does not seem to be a setting to show rankings of my most important keywords. It would be nice to have those high-level keywords on the first page. For example, I have 200 keywords in an account. I want the report to show on a page my 10 most important keywords. Is there a way to set up a Label to my keywords in order to product a report page just for those keywords?

Has the relevancy of SEOmoz tools disappeared?
I have A rankings for my on-site grades for my most important keywords. I have no Critical issues and no Warnings with my Crawl Diagnostics. Most of the Competiive Link analysis data shows my site beating out the competition. If all this is accurate, how can my SERPs continue to decrease and lesser pages with terrible optimization and backlinking be ranking higher? I even have a facebook page beating me in the results. If there is nothing left for me to address using SEOmoz, and I keep getting worse & results, doesn't it mean that the SEOmoz tools are not relevant to producing actual results? Or, am I missing something?

SeoMoz and incorrect results?
Just recieved my weekly Rankings and On Page report. First thing i noticed is that an important keyword dropped big time. "Rejser til Cypern" dropped from #3 to #40 ... So i checked google.dk myself (using impersonal.me) and saw i was still #3 in SERP. I ran SeoMoz's own Keyword Difficulty Report-tool. It showed me i was #3 in SERP. Now im thinking: Did i just loose my trust in Seomoz, to whom i give access to all my GA-data? What to do? Have anyone else experienced this?

Is it Possible to Subscribe to an SEOmoz Q&A Category via RSS?
I'm interested in tracking new questions in a specific category in SEOmoz's Q&A (the Reputation Management category), and I was thinking RSS would be the easiest way to do this. Is it possible? Or is there another way to get new questions asked in a category into your email or RSS reader?

Why does SEOMoz crawler ignore robots.txt?
The SEOMoz crawler ignores robots.txt It also "indexes" pages marked as noindex. That means it is filling up the reports with things that don't matter. Is there any way to stop it doing that?

Is there any way to manually initiate a crawl through SEOMoz?
... or do you actually have to wait a week for the next scheduled crawl date on a particular campaign? We've just made a ton of changes to our site, and it would be helpful to know if they will generate any warnings or errors sooner rather than later. Thanks!
