Mozbar question
-
Hi,
In the mozbar it has the following for this post:
PA: 55
mR: 3.28
mT: 4.43
DA: 88
What does this data mean and how would you use it to spot a weakness in a competitor?
Now the domain strength is very high 88, so I know you would have trouble attacking that if your own DA was 48.
p.s this is just an example

The definitions for the mozBar metrics can be found in the URLs below:
PageAuthority - http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/page-authority
mozRank - http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/mozrank
mozTrust - http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/moztrust
Domain Authority - http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/domain-authorityFor spotting a weakness in a competitor, I wouldn't rely solely on the mozBar. But for all intents and purposes of your question I would look at two key metrics to compare: the PageAuthority and total number of linking root domains.
PA gives you an idea of how much more/less authority you have compared to your competitor's page. The number of linking root domains gives you a rough benchmark of how many more unique linking domains you'll need to catch up to them.
Hope that helps!

Question about inbound links
Hi, When i run a scan for inbound links for the domain denverhongkongcafe.com/. One of the inbound links does not have the website denverhongkongcafe.com on its page. I viewed the source code and couldnt't find anything. But denverhongkongcafe.com links to that "inbound" link. Just to summarize everything. This link https://www.beyondmenu.com/40371/denver/hong-kong-cafe-denver-80014.aspx?r=40371 is an inbound link but does not have denverhongkongcafe.com anywhere in the site. But when i go to denverhongkongcafe.com it goes to https://www.beyondmenu.com/40371/denver/hong-kong-cafe-denver-80014.aspx?r=40371 . I am not sure how https://www.beyondmenu.com/40371/denver/hong-kong-cafe-denver-80014.aspx?r=40371 is an inbound link?

H1 Mystery with Mozpro and Mozbar
Moz's crawler has notified me that the H1s for all the blog posts are missing but Mozbar says the page title is designated as the H1 for each post. In Wordpress, the code to the page title is not accessible in "text." I viewed page source and took a look through the code to find the H1 connected to the page title, but couldn't locate it. Usually, Wordpress themes automatically give the page title an H1 tag. Interested to hear any further insights on this topic...

Duplicate content report - question on best practice
Hello all, New to MOZ Pro and SEO - so lots to get my head round! I’m working through the Duplicate Content section of the Crawl report and am not sure what the best practice is for my situation. Background: We are a reference guide for luxury hotels around the world, but the hotels that are featured on the site vary year on year. When we add a new hotel page, it sets up the url as ourwebsite.com/continent/country/regionORcity/hotel. When the hotels come off, I redirect their URL to the country or region where we have other hotels. Example: http://www.johansens.com/europe/switzerland/zermatt/ The hotel in Zermatt has come off the site, showing 0 results on this landing page. Question: My duplicate content report is showing a number of these regional pages that are displaying the copy “0 places - Region’ because the hotel has come off, but the landing page is still live. Should I redirect the regional page back to the main country page? And then if I add a new hotel to the site from that region in the future, simply remove the redirect? Should I also delete the page? Any tips would be much appreciated!

H1 tag question
I am currently going through the process of optimizing my pages for my given keywords. Most of my pages are receiving an A grading from the Moz page checker, with keywords being found in all elements expect for the H1 tag. For certain pages I have not used a H1 tag, the pages title has been incorporated into the image on the top of the page. This is difficult to explain without showing you so i will use one of my pages to explain, the page is http://www.ecobode.co.uk/garden-uses-3/garden-gym/. The keyword for this page is garden gym, it is found multiple times in the content, URL and other on page elements expect for the H1 tag as I don't have one. The title resides in the image, I know how important H1 tags are but I don't know how I can incorporate into this page. Does anyone have any ideas how I can incorporate the H1 tag into this page? Kind Regards, Tom

I am experimenting with Raven Tools and have a question
Since I am an in-house SEO I'm a little slower to adopt some of the paid tools out there, but I am thinking of jumping in and opting for the paid version of Raven Tools. Can anyone who's currently using Raven Tools suggest how and where is the best place to export backlinks info for import into the Link Manager? I want something that will give me as much of the data as possible already filled in (i.e. PR, domain authority, anchor text, follow/no follow information etc.). I don't mind if I have to rearrange it, I just don't want to have to be inputting things like PR and anchor text one at a time by hand. I do have SEOMoz pro and I see that I can pull a CSV of backlinks and do two separate reports, one for followed and one for not followed links, etc. I'm just wondering if anyone has any additional suggestions. How about Ahrefs.com? Is anyone using the paid version of that tool in conjunction with Raven Tools for Link Management? Is there a better tool out there for Link Management than Raven Tools? (I just found this link in a Q & A thread for an open source SEO panel to try...http://www.seopanel.in/ - anyone using that one?) Thanks all!

How to un-answer a question?
Being new here I'm pressing all sorts of buttons and breaking things... I posted a question, liked someone's answer so click "good answer" thinking it was like a "thumbs up" but it actually set my question to "answered". How does one set their own question to un-answered?

How come I cannot ask one question a month to the pro's ?
I just got a major increase of errors on my website on the last crawl. I haven't touched my web site ( other than adding content ) for the past 3 months. It's like more than 500 errors I got on the last crawl, How can I call SeoMoz tech support ? I cannot use my 'One question a month to the pro's a option', cannot select the option pretending I have used my question this month where it is not true. Need help. Thanks
