Moztool and on page ranking matching
-
How does the Moztool compare and filter the search phrases you enter in your campaign? Or more correctly, will it filter out stop words or is it an exact match?
For example
I enter a phrase to track that say: "book ski trip austria"
Identified in Google I see that most users search for just that "book ski trip austria"
But in content, I cant write that as that is uncorrect english and I want to maby write something like: "When you book a ski trip to austria you get..."
How will this affect my on page SEO report, will it still match and mark a "V" in done or show a an error?
Even more interesting is, what happen if you do phrases in different order like "An austrian skip trip will make you feel..."

Hey Per,
Good question.
The On-Page report actually utilizes Broad Keyword Use in it's grading. For situations just like you mentioned. Not every keyword is utilizing proper grammar so we've padded it out a bit to allow for extenuating circumstances.
Google will do similar with their rankings unless someone uses quotes to ask for an exact match (weird, but it happens).
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Joel. -
Not sure about SEO report card effect.. try it out and let us know.
However, when it comes to "should I make my content grammatically correct?" the answer is yes. Throwing in the word "to" isn't going to make-or-break your SEO campaign and could go a long way in improving (rather, not reducing) user experience.

User wise, my product menu @LEDSupply.com is user friendly, but I'm concerned that it might be seen by crawlers as bad because of the TOO MANY ON-PAGE LINKS error I am getting in my moz crawl report.

On-page grader question
Hi there, Getting to know the Pro tools and can't find an answer to this. Can someone explain for me please? Using on page grader, I found a couple pages with an F. I scrolled downWTO where it shows the keyword phrases and under each, the URL. Clicking on the first keyword "Building site alarms"it tells me off essentially for not optimising the page for that term. The URL is "construction site security systems" which are different to building site alarms which also have their own page. I don't understand why is Moz associating this keyword with this page? I certainly haven't told it to. Please he

On-Page Report Card Questions
First post here, a couple questions as I work through some of the SEOMOZ tool reporting, specifically the On-page Report Card. I've just received the report results yesterday, so working through the data now. There are two issues categorized as critical by the tool: (1) The grader is stating I don't have any instances of the target keyword in my page title, yet it's there. (The page title is too long, but I'm in the process of hacking the blog software to fix this, it's auto-generated by the CMS.) (2) It's also saying under "Broad Keyword Usage in Document" that I have zero instances of the keyword in the body text, and while I certainly don't have enough, there is at least one instance at the bottom of the blog post. All the text is contained with tags. (3) Related to #2, what's the difference between "Appropriate Keyword Usage in Document" under "High Importance Factors" and "Broad Keyword Usage in Document" under "Critical Factors"

Why did SEOMoz only crawl 1 page?
I have multiple campaigns and on a few of them SEOMoz has only crawled one page. I think this may have to do with how I set up the campaign. How do I get SEOMoz to crawl more than one page on these campaigns.

Seomoz on-page analysis, how strict to be
Hello, In a competitive niche, how important is it to be strict with the seomoz on-page analysis? If it gives a page/keyword an A, am I good to go? Or do I need to be more strict in that. We've had some competition move above us and we want to make sure we're on-site optimized well. site: nlpca(dot)com Thanks.

I can see the grade change for my on-page optimization in the weekly email, however, when I load the summary page on only rank change shows, grade change is blank across the board. I also tried downloading and see the same results. Is this a bug on the website? Thanks!
