Still Getting Keyword Self-Cannibalization
-
I used the onsite optimization and made some changes to my post, but am still getting the Self-Cannibalization mention in my results.
It lists this:
"Real Estate Careers | Keller Williams | Career In Real Estate" as the link that is not supposed to be there.
This is not a link, but the title of the post. What am I missing?
-
yes, i'm using 'real estate careers' as the keyword. when i run the report, i get an 'a' with the only error being the cannibalization.
i've been tweaking other pages on my site and am seeing the same thing on most of them....

The On-Page optimization report requires two input factors: the URL and the keyword.
You offered the URL so we are half-way there
What is the keyword you are trying to optimize the page for?
I tried using "Real Estate Careers" as the keyword. Your page scored a "B" and was successful on 34 of the 36 metrics tracked by the report. There was no error related to duplicate data or cannibalization.

hey ryan,
i'm running my pages through the on-page optimizer and am getting a notice that I'm Self-Cannibalizing my page by linking to "Real Estate Careers | Keller Williams | Career In Real Estate".
This is not a link, but the title of my post...why is it saying this?
plugin http://www.youdrivethesuccess.com/ into the on-page optimization tool and you will see what I'm talking about...let me know what you think. thanks.

Hi Brent.
We need further information. Your question leaves us open to making too many guesses.
-
When you say "I am still getting self cannibalization in my results", what results exactly are you referring to? The SEOmoz crawl report?
-
Where exactly does it list "Real Estate Careers | Keller Williams | Career In Real Estate"? The "Title Tag" field?
-
Which field says there is a duplication? The Duplicate Page Content field?
The report name, the type of duplication (field name), and the URLs involved are what is necessary to offer a specific reply.
Generally speaking, there are a few possible causes of content duplication. The most common is a need for canonicalization. Often there are multiple URLs which lead to the same exact page. Canonicalization is one way you can declare the primary URL for a given page.

Domain still not being found in search
Hi guys, I've been handed a client who needs some seo work. I've tweaked one of their pages to focus on a chosen keywords about 4 months back but still the site is not even visible using the new Domain Analysis tool from moz and it still won't rank at all for the keywords. Am I missing something here? Is there something blocking the SERP from listing the website? I've ran a site: search on Google and it returns 283 results on the website. It's puzzling me as there clearly is something stopping it from being ranked. The domain name in question is: https://cloud9inecommunications.co.uk Thanks in advance.

How can I create a keyword ranking report with a custom date range?
I need to see change since campaign inception, and would like the flexibility of other date ranges. (in a list form, not per keyword) Does Moz have a way to do this yet? This is the one feature I really need that Moz hasn't historically had. Can the API be modified for this? Would appreciate some feedback guys!

I have included the rel="canonical" tag in all my product pages, but still getting canonical error in MOZ reports for more than 6 month ! I would like to know if my code is wrong or the MOZ report system is not working properly. Here is an example of my canonical code in line 84 rel="canonical" href="http://www.doornmore.com/slab-single-door-80-fiberglass-courtlandt-1-panel-arch-lite-glass.html" /> Thanks Shayann

No longer in top 100 for branded keyword - How!?
Got a weird one here... Won't give away actual URL but for this example let's say client's site is: www.purplebananas.com Many of the longtail keyword-targeted subpages/posts are still ranking pretty well. We recently went through and optimized the site based on poor scores we found from crawl reports from SEO Moz, which included renaming some sub-pages, eliminating duplicate content pages, archives, etc (it's a wordpress site, about 4 years old). This site used to rank at the top or near it for the search "purple bananas". However, after we optimized the site it's almost completely fallen off the radar of Google, turns up way over 100 for the search "purple bananas". Strangely, if we search "purplebananas" we're at the top still. Any idea what's going on here? Are we potentially over-optimized or something weird for our own brand!? Any troubleshooting tips? FWIW the changes were made about 6 weeks ago and while we're steadily building links, I don't think this is the standard "Google dance". Thanks!

How Tro transfer Keywords from one campaign to the other
I have defined a list of keywords (along with labels) in a campaign that I no longer use. I would like to use the same keywords along with the brands and labels in a new campaign . Is there an automated way to do this ? Or do I have to do it manually one after the other ?

Regarding Avoiding Keyword Self-Cannibalization
I ran some of my pages through the 'on-page report card' and one thing that kept popping up was to Avoid Keyword Self-Cannibalization. I thought the best SEO practice was to have anchor text at the end of your article that matched your target keywords. Is this not accurate? Please let me know the best practice so I can make sure my pages are all optimized correctly. Thanks. Here is an example: http://www.youdrivethesuccess.com/culture/real-estate-commission-split/
