Error for a page that doesn't exist.
-
Hi,
I'm just trailing this service, and I have a couple of questions that I hope someone can help with.
1. I am getting a high priority error regarding a page not being able to be crawled - a 4XX error. Problem is, there is no such page in existence. The URL is my site/comments/feed It's driving me crazy.
2. I'm also getting errors based on missing meta tags in blog posts. I am adding tags at the time of posting, so I am unsure why these errors are showing up. Actually, I didn't add tags to all posts - but there are errors on ALL posts, even those I added tags to.
Any help would be wonderful. Thanks!!!

By the way Hugh, if you think the broken link reported by Moz isn't actually there, then you can contact them about a possible glitch here: help@moz.com

Hmm, weird. The broken link is showing up as the important issue. Oh well.
Thanks for the awesome support. I'll keep playing with this.

Your "blog" pages are in fact missing a description. For example: http://photographerinc.com/david/ has no description tag. It has the og:description, but that's not the same.
I wasn't able to find a broken link tho.
-
Sure, it's www.photographerinc.com

Do you mind sharing your Website's address?

Hi,
thanks for the fast response.
Following the error link take me nowhere - if I click the link I get an error saying it doesn't exist. Screen grab below. So, it reports an error, then tells me it doesn't exist. Seems weird.
On the point of the meta stuff, they aren't new. The were entered at the time of the blog postings, but the report says they don't exist.
Hard for my brain to wrap around.

Hi!
The 1st error is given when you are linking somewhere in your site to a 4XX page. Try following the links in hat error report to see which page is linking to that 4XX. Once you find it, simply remove the link or fix it.
The 2nd, if you are just adding the missing tags, it would take at least a week to reflect in the crawl stats in Moz as Mozbot scrapes your site one a week.
Hope that clears it up

How can a page have high Google/ organic traffic but show no ranking keywords in Moz?
We have a page on our website with a higher than average number of pageviews, 85% of which came from Google organic search. When I research this page by entering the URL into the "exact page" keyword research tool, Moz says it has no ranking keywords. How can a page be earning organic traffic without ranking for any keywords?

Moz's on-page grader
Hello, I am having an issue with Moz's on-page grader. Grading the page, http://www.babyklar.dk/tigerspring/26-ugers-springet.html for the keyword 'Tigerspring 26 uger' I am receiving the error message: 'Exact keyword is used in page title' - tagging it as a highly important but easy fix. But I only have the words "Tigerspring 26 uger" in the title, so how can this not grade as Exact keyword? Is there somthing wrong with the system? Or is it me? Thanks very much. Best regards

Why does the moz crawl test lists page twice?
Hi, I'm running into an issue where some crawlers list my pages twice, once with a trailing slash, once without. I first saw it on a few pages with screaming frog, then saw it happen on all my pages with the moz crawler. The site is www.kidsandart.org and its on Squarespace. I grepped the sitemap.xml I submitted to google webmaster and got 167 distinct pages, all of them without a trailing slash. Any insights on why this is happening, and how to regard moz crawler results would be appreciated. thanks Tom

On Page Grader Returning Large # of Keywords
When using the on-page grader the results show the below for a page with a specific keyword in the body only 5 times : We found this keyword used 1100 times. Any Idea why this would be showing such a high number? The keywords are in Thai language but there is a space before and after the keyword. Thanks.

SEOMOZ On page ranking reports update
I've recently made a load of changes to improve the on page ranking report grades for my site. I was givena C grade for this page: http://www.katalysticevents.com/luxury-wedding-teepee-hire-about/ based on two key phrases Wedding Tipi and Wedding Teepeee. I've made all the changes as advised (excluding H1 tag) by the report but when I rereun the report it's picking up old page data and showing the same problems. Is there some kind of cache thing I'm missing here? The confusing thing is I made the same series of changes for this page: www.katalysticevents.com/luxury-marquee-hire-services/ for Luxury marquee and luxury marquee hire and the results are fine...I've got an A grade. Examples are things like ALT image attirbutes which don't seem to show up on the first page but are fine on the second page.

Adding Labels to Existing Keywords
Under "Manage Keywords", I've previously added several keywords that have been tracking for a month. It's easy to remove labels, but how can I add them to existing keywords? I tried re-adding them with the new labels, but no dice. If I delete them, won't the ranking history be deleted as well?

Why isn't seo moz properly crawling my site?
In my campaign results, only 2 pages have been crawled, when there are many more. Also, when I do the on-page evaluation for my homepage and the main keyword, I get a grade of F, with a ton of errors that my page actually does not have. It's as if SEO moz is having trouble crawling through my site. Any ideas on this?
