SEOMoz PR vs. Google PR
-
I have the SEO MozBar set up and for one of the sites we are maintaining, it is showing them on a 59 as PA in the MozBar. When I check it on Google PR, it has either no info or a 0. http://www.prchecker.info was one of the ones I found which shows them as 0.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes sorry, that's what I meant
It can't be exact of course as SEOmoz don't know the algo, but it's as close as anyone is going to get. -
yes, that's right. I never put trust in Google PR anymore ; I don't trust the websites that give the rank. Stick to Moz metrics...
-
So, by that you mean that the Moz Rank would be the most aproximate measure of the real PR google have about an site?
-
There could be a number of reasons. Perhaps Google has reset the PR because of a transfer of ownership or they found the site practicing shady link tactics and removed their PR. Then again it could be that they have established a lot of quality links since the last Google PR update which mozRank is finding but Google is not yet showing.
Without knowing more details it will be hard to give a precise answer, but keep in mind even what is shown in Google PR toolbar or other pr checking tools are just a snapshot at some point in time taken prior to the last update, so it is out of date and really shouldn't be bothered with. Unless, of course, you are concerned with the buying and selling of links, which is a practice frowned upon by Google.

Ignore Google PR... it means nothing anymore and isn't your real PR. They say regard it as "For entertainment purposes only" now days
In other words, Moz Rank is the only one you want to think about.

Historical Ranking of my Website vs. Competition
I recently received the dreaded "So, how do we rank?" question. Is there a way to use Moz Tools to measure how my site ranks for a specific period of time vs. other competitors for a specific keyword? My boss' boss is asking about how we have ranked for a specific topic over time vs. others. Which tools are best for me to use to try and answer that question? Thanks!

SEOMoz Question
Hi, I have taken over SEO on a real estate site with an internal blog. Unfortunately there are loads of duplicated pages and titles in the blog. It was suggested that all should be rel=canonical so not to show up. In my last crawl here though they still do. So question is if SEOMoz crawls and sees them is Google also seeing them? Also would it be best to move the blog off site so this does not cause anymore damage and just link to it from the main site? Thanks for your comments

Is it me or is SEOMOZ Q&A slow
I try and answer many questions here on SEOMoz Q&A, but the page load speed seems so slow I think my browser is going to time out. I don't remember it being this slow. Anybody else noticing slow loading (especially when asking, answering, or replying to questions)?

Site Not On Google, SEOmoz shows as 43
The site I'm helping with was at one time a page 1, even #1 on page 1. Lots of changes, problems when someone else did something and dropped to page 4 for keyword. After some recent tweaking I did, it no longer shows on rankings. No penalty on Google Webmaster, in Webmaster tools it shows the sitemap processed with no errors. SEOmoz still shows it at #43 in Rankings. Why does SEOmoz see it, but I don't? Site is www.plussizeplum.com (sorry, plus size women's lingerie) and keywords are "plus size lingerie".

How to work round issue with SEOMOZ not supporting SSL?
I have a website that it running via SSL, to secure the website, to reassure the customer is browsing (and so will be purchasing) on a secure website, and to show off the green address bar which many of my competitors do not have. However in my campaign I am getting on Links showing, with my rank reporting '1', surely this cannot be! I asked a Help question, and the only response was: "Unfortunately, we don't currently support https for our linkscape crawls. This is definitely something that we plan to implement in the future though! I hope that helps and I apologize for any inconveniences!" This definately does not help.. Is there any way of working around this issue, or will I be forced to cancel my SEOMOZ membership?

Site is penalized yet Google WTC and SEOMOZ says it's ok!
My first question on this community.. A high traffic site of mine has been severely hit for over two months. I took a look at GWTC and noticed a lot of suggestions on the HTML suggestions tab, where I believed that one or a combination of these errors/notices might been causing the penalty. At the moment of typing GWTC shows no HTML suggestions and minor meaningless crawl errors. Checking on SEOMOZ reported issues, I see zero errors except for a high number of duplicate page titles resulting from tag pages being accessible in the same tag title in paginations (tag.html?page=x) which can be fixed easily by using rel=canonical but I just know it can't cause such penalty. For reported warnings, site has a decent amount of title element being too long and missing meta tag description tags. I have been very active in the past with 301 inner pages of the site to make pages URLs as unique as possible and results were great, but that was long time ago before taking the hit. The penalty the site suffers from is zero rankings for newly added contents and old contents as well. It has also lost all rankings for its money terms. Site is not banned and still ranking top for its name which is a good thing. I am not sure where else I should be looking and will appreciate any good advices. Thanks!
