Inconsistent On-Page Grader results
-
Hello everyone!
I am fairly new to the MOZ tools but I'm finding some inconsistencies in the On-Page grader.. I have tested several pages (some of which I know have doos and bad SEO) and the results I keep getting are very volatile.
For example, I have looked at testing http://www.sportingwebdesign.com for "Sports Website Design" - one minute it gave me a grade F, then then 2 minutes after I refresh the page and it gave me a grade A.. I am very confused and a bit worried that this tool may be a bit volatile...
Anyone have any thoughts?

Thomas, are you referring to the on-page grader, or to ranking reports?

I have found that when you test a website on a granular level like with Moz you will see fluctuations.
This is normal however if you see a large downward spiral well obviously something to worry about.
Use Raventools.com, SERPS.com not as a replacement because they're not for Moz however they will I believe show you that fluctuation is completely normal. You can also use http://spydermate.com/ along with authoritylabs.com
please keep in mind none of these will replace what is offered here however they will show you that this is a normal thing. or they will show you you have a big problem. Hopefully you'll just have normal fluctuation.
Sincerely,
Thomas

I keep getting a 429 Too Many Request error for a wp-login page on my website. Is there a way to prevent that from happening, or fix outside of redirecting on the back end of WordPress?
I have a client that keeps coming up with 429 Too Many Request critical crawl errors. I re-directed some of them on the back end of WordPress, but additional keep coming in. The URL has a WP-Login and directs to back end login section. Is there a reason that would come up as an error, how can I prevent it from happening again, and how can I fix the remaining current errors outside of redirecting back to /? Thanks, Kalyn Lengieza

Duplicate Page Content
The site crawl is registering duplicate page content for our storefront site, but the pages aren't the same. They're ascending pages within the same category (ex: Featured, Featured pg2, Featured pg3, and so on). What can be done to fix these errors or prevent them in the future?

Should I be concerned our FWE Mentions report shows tons of non-relevant results?
Our brand name also happens to be a common German word and when I ran FWE for the first time this week, I was surprised to see hundreds of returns for the German word rather than our brand name. Does this affect our SEO in anyway and if so, what can we do to mitigate this? Appreciate any insights! Thanks in advance.

On-Page Grader supporting HTTPS?
Hi there, I am getting the error "Sorry, but this URL is inaccessible" on the Moz On-Page Grader. I have tested with multiple URL's but any that link to my site give the error. I have noticed my site's URL's redirect to https so my question is..is the on-page grader in-compatible with https? Cheers!

On-page Grader API?
Hi guys, I have a massive list of keywords i want to optimise against a specific URL. I'm checking them manually with the MOZ on-page grader to determine if the keyword is optimised for the URL (Grade A score). I was wondering if there is a way to pull the scores automatically for each URL with the MOZ api? Or does anyone know of any tools which can automate this process? Cheers, Chris

Multiple Page Title Elements
I have searched high and low for the source of this but just cannot find it. On-page grader gives the multiple page title elements warning, but I just can't identify where this is coming from. Can anyone, please, point me to the right direction?

Why Moz Rank tracker's results are different from results search in browser?
I would like to perform a competitor rank analysis in Google.gr . I have noticed that the results from the rank tracker for Google.gr are different than the results in Google.gr from a machine located in Greece with no Google account logged in. Could you inform me why such a behavior occurs?
