On-Page Report Card with https
-
Hi,
Our site has a 301 redirect to https and I'm getting two different grades for my pages depending upon whether I type:
https://www.domain.com (gets an A grade)
or www.domain.com (gets a C grade)
Is there a setting I need to use to make sure my campaign knows our site is at https?
Thank you

Hi there,
I'd have to know the keywords you were using to see for sure. But I just tested a keyword from your campaign and saw similar results. It's most likely because When you run the report without the http you aren't getting the credit for the canonical tag you have.
When you run it for https, you are getting the credit for appropriate use of the rel canonical tag.
That's why you're seeing two different scores.If you want to get more in depth, you're welcome to provide keywords here or email help@seomoz.org
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Joel. -
Hi Prasad,
Thanks for the reply!
It's actually not help with the grade that's the problem. Â It's the fact that www.ownmyip.com gets a C grade and https://www.ownmyip.com get an A grade. Â I'm wondering why the same page grades differently depending upon the use of https or http.
Maybe it doesn't matter to our SEO but clarification would be cool.
Thanks again.

Hi,
I have not find any place to set the domain is http or https. But you can have an idea about the reason to happen like this by go through the suggestion given by On-page Optimization tool.
Also better if you can post here, what are the suggestions you got with that C grade. Hope it will helpful for others to give you a good response.
Anyway I always suggest you to use actual url to check the on-page report when using the tool.
Regards
Prasad

HTTP to HTTPS
I had a site that was http://www.site.com and now the entire site is https://www.site.com. I notice in WMT its showing  https://wwwsite.com listed as not verified.  I never added it, but did Google recognize it and added it to my list of sites? Do I need to verify it? Is it ok to have verified http:www.site.com and additionally https://www.site.com Also, i submitted a new sitemap and indexed pages are low. Will that go up as Google crawls the site? The https://www.site.com was launched about a week ago. Thanks.

Keyword Appearing on Home Page - Moz Page Grader
Hi Today I entered www.partydomain.co.uk through the Moz Page Grader and found that the Home Page is Ranked B. I noticed that an Area we could improve on is the amount of times we are using our main keyword "Fancy Dress" on the home page. Please can you take a look at www.partydomain.co.uk and scroll to the bottom of the page were the tabs are containing losts of content. I am thinking about removing all of thoose Tabs. Our Competitors dont have any content as such on the home page and are ranking higher than Party Domain for "fancy dress" What do you think ? remove all the tabs to be like the others that rank better? Or cut the text right down ? Thanks Adam

Form Only Pages Considered No Content/Duplicate Pages
We have a lot of WordPress sites with pages that contain only a form. Â The header, sidebar and footer content is the same as what's one other pages throughout the site. Â Each form page has a unique page title, meta description, form title and questions but the form title, description and questions add up to probably less than 100 words. Are these form pages negatively affecting the rankings of our landing pages or being viewed as duplicate or no content pages?

A question on cached pages
Hi all. I have been testing different ways of writing the text on the homepage of the website www document-management-solutions co.uk because we are ranking very low for the keyword Document Management Software. I've recently learnt about pages being 'cached' and wanted to just clarify something. The last time the page was cached was on 26th March. I have made changed to the homepage since then and wanted to see how it has affected our ranking. Will I not be able to know if it has had a positive/negative effect until the next time our page is cached? Thanks

Home page or landing page?
Hello, I want to ask a question related to that - Should we put keywords in the home page title if we wish to position another landing page better for particular keywords? I have read in one website about SEO that it's good the main keywords of your website to be positioned in homepage title also. f.e. Let's say we have website about web-design and our company is named Company Ltd. The title of the home page is "Company Ltd. - Web design, SEO, etc" We have also another inner page named "Web design | Company Ltd.". So should we leave the first page name only "Company Ltd." and the landing page's name "Web design | Company Ltd." . I don't know if they both have the same keyword in their title they won't compete with each other.

What if Paginated Pages all have PageRank?
Paginated Pages, page 2,3,4 etc.... they aren't supposed to have a PageRank, right? If they are only linked to from themselves, only the original page, Page 1, is supposed to be showing PageRank? I'm trying to double check that I am handling this right. I'm not using canonical, or noindex or any of that... just using rel next and prev, which I thought would be fine. Thoughts?

On Page Reports - Multiple URLs Appearing for a Keyword
Hello, I have a question regarding the on page reports automatically generated by seomoz When I look at my on page reports I notice that each keyword appears a number of times, each with a different url and then a grade for the on page report and sometimes a rank. I'm not sure I understand this, firstly I thought the on page reports were only generated for keywords in the top 50, does that mean the global top 50, or my top 50? Also why are they appearing for so many urls, I find this confusing and am not sure which pages to focus on improving, it's not always my intended pages that are ranking the best. I believe that I read somewhere that I can choose which pages to have the on page reports rank for, perhaps this is the solution? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Iain
