Why does the Moz Tool Bar show code as HTML text for my site?
-
When I run my site in the Moz Tool bar, all of the page elements are read correctly except for HTML text.
Sample page: http://www.lifeionizers.com/blog/alkaline-water/electrolyzed-reduced-water
Instead of the text on that page, the tool shows Javascript code:
/*
With a very high character count for text (14,247).

We have a partial victory! The Moz Bar works on the blog, but it appears we have a problem with a noscript script on other pages of the site, such as the homepage. The Moz On Page grader works for blog pages now as well. Before this fix, it was showing all F's, no matter how well optimized the page was.
Thanks!

Hey,
I took a closer look at your page and it looks like what's happening is that you had a Facebook Script snippet in your body.
I used Chrome's Dev tools to move the script from the body to the end of the head and Mozbar is showing proper words now: http://goo.gl/Zpcwme
It's important to note that I'm not a Javascript developer, so I don't know if there was an explicit reason to have that code there. Generally scripts will need to go in the head tag or on a separate page and referenced. You'd want to confer with your dev team on this to make sure that's a viable solution for you.
But that is what's going on.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Joel. -
I removed the Javascript comments but it didn't fix the problem. The Moz Bar now shows the same line of code without the comment code:
(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsB...

Hi Karasd,
Thanks for writing in. Looks like the MozBar crawler isn't quite smart enough to figure out some of the code on the page, specifically this snippet:

How accurate is Moz Rank Tracker tool? It's showing different results than a Google incognito search.
I have a keyword/url combo with Moz Rank Tracker showing 3 spots above what a Google Incognito search showed. I performed my Google Incognito search based on these suggestions: https://moz.com/community/q/best-and-easiest-google-depersonalization-method Is the Moz Rank Tracker tool off?

Moz Keyword Tool Monthly Volume
Ive recently put together a Keyword List of about 100 keywords on the Moz Keyword Explorer tool. One keyword, aerial filming, stood out as very low search volume of 51 - 100. I took the same 100 keywords and passed them through the Google Keyword Planner by Google AdWords. Aerial Filming has an average search volume of 1k - 10k according to the Keyword Planner. Even though Keyword Planner gives me a range of 1k - 10k, the lowest number is still 10 times higher than what the Moz Keyword Explorer was indicating. This drastic difference of volume was consistent across all 100 keywords. All of the Monthly Volume numbers were divided by 10. Why does Moz Keyword Tool display a search volume that is 10x less than what Google Keyword Planner is suggesting?

500 errors showing up differently on moz and google wmt
Lately, I've been having the issue of a large increase in 500 errors. These errors seem to be intermittent, in other words, Google and Moz are showing that I have server 500 errors for many pages but, when I actually check the links, everything's fine. I've run tests to see if there is any virus on the server or if I have any corrupt files and as far as I can tell, there are none. I'm left with the possibility that maybe one of my plugins is causing this issue (I'm built on top of Wordpress). Moz is showing that I had nearly five hundred 500 server errors on the 12th or the 11th. On the other hand, Google shows that on the 13th I had 179 server errors and then an additional 200 for the 15th. I'm assuming Google is slow to find or report these things? I would like to know which is more reliable so that I can try to figure out which of these plugins may be causing the problem, if any or if I'm investigating this the wrong way, I'd love to have more suggestions. Thanks in advance! Sorry, the url is http://www.heartspm.com if you'd like to take a look.

Monthly Data Option not appearing in Moz AGAIN
Hello Again, It's a real shame that I seem to come to this forum to only complain about your product again and again. I remember a time when I used to really respect this company, but your tool is absolutely abysmal. Anyway, my latest issue (to add to the pile) is that campaigns that have been in my account for almost 2 months STILL do have options for me to make monthly reports on. What's wrong now? Edit: I just checked the date I added these profiles, it was around the end of last month, so one and a half months ago.

Open site explorer linking root domains
My company has been trying to increase the number of linking root domains for a specific page on our website using our PR company and press releases that are sent out and linked back to this page. This is working nicely, but the number of linking root domains is still not increasing under the "linking root domains" tab. I am noticing the correct links to this domain under "fresh web mentions" though. I know this tool can take a bit to update, but it has been quite some time and I still only see the one link.
