Q&A Performance Improvements
-
Howdy! We've made some performance improvements to Q&A, and things should be much speedier now. If you see anything amiss, please leave a reply here or send a note to help@seomoz.org. Thanks!

OK. Here's what I can tell you. I use two different accounts in chrome. In both of them I have cleared my cache and cookies. In one account it works just fine. In the other, I get the problem.
So, when I go to this current page, http://www.seomoz.org/q/q-a-performance-improvements, and click on "reply" I get a brand new page on which to enter my reply. The url of the new page is http://www.seomoz.org/q/reply/122471/replies/new.
On that page, the javascript error console gives me this:
Hope that helps.

So sorry that I couldn't send the screenshots yesterday. I am swamped with work. I will try to get them to you later today. Hopefully really soon. It's weird because, now, as I type this it is working fine. Yet other times it doesn't. I'll document a few attempts and send it to you as soon as I can.

I spoke too soon.
If I clear my cache and cookies then it works just fine. However, the next time I come to the site the problem is there again (new page whenever I respond or reply, plus I can't thumb anyone up). I have to clear my cache and cookies and login again in order for it to work properly again.

From the last 30 days seems reasonable to me, but my bigger issue is with the name of that tab.
"Featured" is definitely a totally different connotation than "Unanswered". If I'm clicking on a "Featured" tab, I'm expecting something about these questions to be unusual - they're especially tricky, or especially useful, or especially contentious. Just "not having been answered" doesn't fit the idea of "Feature" in my mind. Not enough difference between the word Featured and Hot in my mind.
No catchy one-word label is immediately coming to mind, but if I think of something, I'll post it.

Good news! It is working properly for me now.
I thought it was still broken, but this time, clearing my cache and cookies did the trick.
Good job guys!
-
Same thing is happening for me too. I'm on Chrome on a PC.
-
Yes, the same thing happens for both replies and responses.
-
There was no place to attach an image at the Help Hub so I emailed support. Also, here is a screenshot of what I am seeing.

In addition to what Jamie said, we'd love to hear feedback about what is a good age to feature questions to help get older questions noticed, but have them recent enough that the user is still active in Q&A, still has a problem, etc.
What do people think about looking at the 50 oldest unanswered questions from the last 30 days? Or the last 60 days? Or last x many days? Any preferences?
-
Is it a bug that everything I'm seeing on the Featured Q&A tab is from 2011?
-
Q&A is generally much faster...good work.
But I have one request. Now the site gives you a new page when you type your reply. I can't see the question that was asked anymore. Usually I will need to go back and reference things said in the question when I am typing my answer. Can this be fixed?
-
Looks much better Keri. Until yesterday it was supper difficult during certain hours of the day for pages to load, specially when you tried to answer. Looks great so far.
-
Things definitely seem te be speedier than before! Great work!
-
The Q & A is one of the best things about this site, the reason why i stay here although it is sometimes dis-heartening when over 60 people look at your question like the one i posted yesterday and no one answers. But on the whole, i have gained a lot of knowledge thanks to all the experts on here.
-
Glad to hear it, thanks for letting us know!
-
Hi Falk,
To clarify, we were never shutting down all of Q&A, only the private questions. The public Q&A will still be here, and will be getting more improvements over time.
-
Looks great guys. Appears to be much speedier than before!
-
I am very happy about your decision, not to close the Q&A!

How could I improve my "brand" and "mentions" using the Moz tool?
Hello I am a bit stuck on what to put into this section of MOZ. As you can see from the attached image I have setup to catch any mention of my business name and root url. But beyond that I am uncertain of what to use to monitor who is talking about us. I'm also uncertain of what other abilities or usefulness this function would have. aOq7wVg.png

Following moz guideliness complety, will it certainly improve keyword rankings, domain authority
Hi! G’day to you. I am Naresh from Dotline Infotech. I’d like to take up couple of concerns to be clarified for my better understanding on Moz tool. Indeed, Moz is a nice SEO tool that helps in improving Search engine optimization comprehensive process. We are moz pro member since a year. Moz has equally bifurcated every SEO activity and rate it according to its own benchmark. I intend to ask a series of concerns; Q1. Moz has page grading system A to F. According to Moz guidelines, if the keywords on the page gets repeated minimum 4 times, Moz consider it as ‘A’ grading (one of Moz metric to evaluating the page). Whereas, Google indicates repetition of same keywords time and again is treated as keyword stuffing. According to me, if keywords are already within the content one or two time and furnishing relevant information, why keywords re-occurrence to be 4 time. Does the repetition of same keywords 4 times will lead to give more valuable information? Just a request to let me share why we should unnecessarily repeat keywords? Q2. As per Google guidelines, only 3 keywords can be placed in title tag and also advisable to use only one h1 tag instead of multiple. Among 3 keywords in title tag, only one main keyword can be used in H1 tag. Moz gives much weight age to that particular keyword placed in H1 tag but rest two keywords does not get any importance. I just like to know if we use three H1 tags within page, will it increase the page grading or not. Q3. Does Moz tool have its own index data or refer to Google’s ones? Q4. Following the Moz guidelines completely, will it be 100% sure all our keyword rankings, page authority, domain authority certainly be improved. Looking forward to hear you soon. Thanks

Rankings reporting showing inaccurate improve/decline/unchanged numbers
Our rankings report is showing inaccurate numbers for the improved, declined, and unchanged summary, both in the email and on the site. According to the added up numbers, we have 315 keywords in the campaign, but that's not possible as we only have 172 set up for it. The total for this section is correct, it just doesn't add up.

Is there a way to perform a crawl diagnostics without creating a campaign?
If you wanted to perform a crawl diagnostics but your campaigns are at full capacity are you able to do this and how (or does this mean you will have to remove one campaign to make space for another)?

Title Element too Long - Counts ampersand as &
I was wondering if Google counts the ampersand written as '&' as 5 characters or a single one? It seems that Google counts it as a single character and SEOmoz PRO counts it as 5 characters.
