Pro Report Card Question
-
I am getting this warning in the Pro Report Card, my site is http://www.myfairytalebooks.com which seems to have Children's and not Childrens in the title.
Is it my site that needs to html encode in the title or is Report Card slightly broken?
Exact Keyword Usage in Page Title
Easy fix
<dl>
<dt>Page title</dt>
<dd>"Personalized Childrens Books Kids Music CDs Baby Books & Gifts."</dd>
<dt>Explanation</dt>
<dd>Search engines consider the title element to be the most important place to identify keywords and associate the page with a topic and/or set of terms. SEOmoz's correlation research has also shown that rankings are heavily influenced by keyword usage in the title tag.</dd>
<dt>Recommendation</dt>
<dd>Employ the keyword in the page title, preferrably as the first words in the element.</dd>
</dl>

You can test it by searching for the keyword "Personalized childrens books". If you get the same message, then maybe you need to look further.
I think that you're most likely right and that it IS the apostrophe, but you can probably safely ignore it.

i would ignore it, Apostrophes offten cause problems in programmiing, i am sure thbat google knows its the same

Ryan,
Maybe, but this report is for a 3 word keyword "Personalized Children's Books" it seems to be saying that my title reads "Personalized Childrens Books" missing the apostraphe
Make sense?

That part of the report is very picky, if your keyword is not the first word in the title it gets upset. For example, I was getting a report on my optimization for "Adoption", and my title begins with "Open Adoption Services". The report said I should fix it.

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 there a problem with Weekly Ranking report this week?
I just received my weekly ranking report. 2 Up, 0 down, 8 the same this week. However, last week my page was #2 for "innovation conference" and this week you report "not in top 50." My first thought was penalty, but when I searched and removed personalization, we were still #2 for that search query. So, something must be wrong with the report - either we're 1 down or "not in the top 50 is wrong."
