On Page Grader - We have keyword in Meta Description But does not show up
-
The on-page grader is not counting/picking up the keyword in the meta description.
We have double checked the meta description and re-uploaded the page, and checked the source code on-line.
The keyword is there in meta description, but not showing up in on-page-grader.

Appreciate your pointing out the spamminess of the description. All of the page description are being revised.

Thanks for pointing out what we all missed here ... sometimes working long hours results in missing the easy mistakes.

Mike's absolutely right. More importantly (and no offense) that is a terrible description line.
I would worry more about readability and less about keyword stuffing in your meta description. This is the second line that's going to get someone to click on your link instead of everyone else's.
Try and think of how it will look on a SERP instead of what keywords it has. Think about why you would click your link instead of some other link. That's the most important factor in this particular line of code, if you ask me.
You can have the best organic placement possible but if your site looks spammy and boring you won't get the clickthroughs you want.
Good luck!

Hi David,
In looking at your source, it looks like your meta description is, "Buy Trust Deeds from Trimark Funding Inc. - Buy Trust Deeds for High 9% Annual Returns - Consistent Monthly Income."
The keyword is in the meta keywords tag, but not in the meta description tag.
Hope this helps.
Mike

Moz Bar Not Showing DA?
Hello all, This could be something to do with our site or the Moz bar on Chrome, I just need to know which it is so if it is our website we can look into it further. On certain sections of our website the Moz bar doesn't display any Domain Authority, not even zero, the bar just isn't present. These types of pages are php which pull in data through a feed daily. Speaking to an SEO expert they said it could be where the page is being updated so frequently, or it could be something more sinister and technically not quite right. Does anyone have any ideas? Is the Moz bar just not working for these types os pages or is it more likely something to do with my site? Ironically it's these pages which I'm having trouble with that are not showing in SERPs! Thanks! 3Foorka

Keyword Ranking Report Blank
I have a custom ranking report set up to run every month. The module that shows the overall changes (how many improved, how many dropped, number in rank #1-3, etc.) populates with data, but the keyword ranking for tracked keywords listing is blank for all keywords, all search engines. I haven't changed anything in my campaigns - why is this reporting blank? Thanks!

On Page Grade - Moz Analytics
When I go to search overview I can see my on page optimization grades, but when I try to use the on page grade optimizer for different keywords and url's I get the error. "The URL you entered does not appear to be returning a page successfully. Please make sure that you've entered the URL of valid, working page." However, I know it is a valid url and I get the error even if I use the same url and same keyword I can see the grade for from the search overview. Also, if I try to regrade the page nothing happens and where my previous grade and analysis was located I now have nothing. Any information about why this is happening? Thanks for the help.

Keyword Difficulty Tool limit?
Is anyone else having trouble getting results from the Keyword Difficulty Tool today? I submitted 20 keywords for basic analysis, and it has been pending for almost an hour. I restarted my machine, logged in and out - no change. I pulled a few hundred keywords successfully yesterday. Does anyone know if there is a limit to keywords pulled within a 24-hour timeframe? Thanks!
