Issues with Page Grader Tool and competitor KW Rankings
-
I'm having two very frustrating issues with Moz:
-
The page grader tool is not 'connecting' the correct keyword with the correct URL. For instance, if I want to rank for Dallas Motorcycle Accident Lawyer and create page of optimized content at Dallas.Zdfirm.com/Motorcycle-Accident, Moz doesn't grade THAT page. It grades Dallas.ZDFirm.com which to no surprise rates as an F. This is happening with both web sites on this account so much that the page grader tool is not delivering any value.
-
My competitors keywords are not tracking properly. They are showing for "not in the top 50" for keywords that they are on the first page for. Again, this is for both domains on this account.
Thanks,
Brian

Hello Brian, thanks for the heads up! This is Abe from the Moz Help team. I hope I can help.

The page you are trying to grade has a pop up with a Yes or No question, that our crawler can't get past. Make sure to use the on page grader tool with pages that do not have pop ups or mandatory questionnaires that show up when you go to the address. We do hope to add the ability to bypass these in the future.
-
Make sure you are tracking the exact url that your competitor is ranking for in Google. If your competitor ranks for www.example.com and you have example.com (non-www) in your settings, we will not be able to display the correct results. Make sure to indicate the version you notice them ranking for in Google, in your campaign settings.
I hope this helps! If you need any more help or have questions, please write in help@Moz.com and ask fro Abe

The keyword thing is a common problem that's never been fixed. Some weeks it's accurate, some weeks it's not.

Unsolved Page Optimization Loop
When I am trying to optimise a page within MOZ this message box appears: dcf38be5-eff4-4317-87ab-ab560e8fea7c-image.png I click 'Track Keyword' and it just loops round with the same message over and over again. I have already added this particular keyword to be tracked but I still get the error message. Can anyone help?

What is the difference between the "Crawl Issues" report and the "Crawl Test" report?
I've downloaded the CSV of the Crawl Diagnositcs report (which downloads as the "Crawl Issues" report) and the CSV from the Crawl Test Report, and pulled out the pages for a specific subdomain. The Crawl Test report gave me about 150 pages, where the Crawl Issues report gave 500 pages. Why would there be that difference in results? I've checked for duplicate URLs and there are none within the Crawl Issues report.

Duplicate Page Content Report on Moz - Still ranking in Google Results?
Hi, I am experiencing 2 issues with the Duplicate Page Content in Moz. Every week it is notifying me of new duplicate content - so it seems to be missing duplicate content each week and the crawl is never above the 5000-6000 page mark, which means that it is under 10K which is the limit, so presumably everything is crawled in that one go so surely it should detect all of the dupe content on 1 crawl as opposed to having to do various crawls to detect it no? The dupe content report shows me pages that indeed have duplicate content but after checking, these are ranking on Google for their terms... ? Is the duplicate page content report incremental ? Will it add more duplicate content and increase the report every week or does it just show that week's results? If so, it's a bit like chasing my tail... Help!
