What does this mean ? This page still ranks very bad at Google. So what does it mean that it recives a grade A ?Also, if this URL recives Grade A. It should clearly be optmizied very good on the Keyword. Stil its on page 9 in google. That is very very low on this keyword. Alot of bad blogs, foreign pages, pages without the keyword in heading, pages without any good content etc. rank better.Does this score have anything to do with ranking on google ?Something is clearly wrong with this page. The on-grade tool wont tell me what that it is. And probably dont understand either, since it gives A. Is there anywhere I can check this page on what is wrong with it ?http://www.butikksiden.no/archives/5-toffe-canada-goose-jakker and Canada Goose jakker

Thanks! I Guess getting more backlinks is the ones I am missing. Anyway I Thought the Open Site Explorer was checking backlinks and taking this into account for total score. So when I score higher than many pages, this should be taken into account. Still I am way below these pages.

My page now moved 5 pages up on google since I posted this post. I wish I would have any answers on why it was so low rated and why it suddenly move 5 pages. If someone could show me any tools for this it would be great!

Also I dont see any improvement list for my page in my right hand column of the On page grader. How should I get this ? The only thing that I see is default suggestions below the grading on how to improve a page, or any site.

Hi Kim,

As Peter has suggested, the page grading is simply one of your tools in your SEO arsenal. Assuming all things are equal (backlinks etc) and you page is better optimised than your competitor, then yes, you should be rating higher.

Having looked at your page, yes it's a grade A, yet there are still some things that you can improve upon - they are clearly marked in the right hand column. Try doing that, first.

Secondly, keep building on your backlinks and you social media pages.

Remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint!

Hope that little helps.

Hi Kim

Moz's On-page grader tool is used to give you an understanding of how well optimised the page is for SEO. As you will have seen, it covers a range of different tests checking each one against the keyword you have told the tool you are optimising that page for, and gives it a score A to F based on how well optimised it is for the technical on-page SEO factors.

However, a grade A score does not give you any guarantees of how well that page ranks on Google. What it means is that most if not all things on page that are set up correctly for SEO. How highly a page ranks in Google is based on over 200 elements some of which are covered by the on-page grader but many won't be such as off-page ranking factors including back links, social etc. Consider the on-page grader as one of the tools in your SEO toolkit.

In terms of worse pages than yours that rank higher, it can be confusing and frustrating, but there is no simple answer. However, I recommend looking at doing a competitor analysis for the keyword to compare your page with what competing pages are doing. Look at the keyword difficulty tool to do this: https://moz.com/researchtools/keyword-difficulty.
