Image alt tag
-
Just started using SEO Moz. I entered an alt tag for a featured image on a wordpress website, however, When I conduct a page grade, SEO Moz still indicates that there is not an image alt tag. Any suggestions?
-
For the key words to be recognized, I have to input the image in the text editor section as opposed to using the Set Featured Image in wordpress.
Thanks for your feedback.

Just to add if you're lazy you can also use screaming frog which will pick up any missing alt tags.

Hi,
Have you checked the source code to see it the alt tag is actually there?
ie in firefox/chrome > right click > view page source
Looking for something like:
If it is there then perhaps you need to wait for Moz to re crawl the site, if not and it's definitely on the image alt in wordpress media then you may need to look at your theme. Establish if the theme utilises the alt element and if not then you may need to add it yourself (via a child theme preferably)

Unsolved Website Traffic
Greetings All. I'm working on a new business website for a client, and I've been accessing the site numerous times daily (troubleshooting, confirming changes, etc.). I've been using Google search to access the site, and I use a VPN so that my IP would be random. So I would presume that the site traffic should be increasing. But on the last Moz Pro crawl, the site traffic was still listed as 0.

Is there a minimum amount of traffic required before Moz recognizes it or is something else going on?

Alerts of missing H1 tags that are already there
Hi - I'm new to Moz and this forum. After getting a bunch of odd alerts about 803 errors, I signed up for the Site Crawl v2 Beta. Now, I'm not getting any 803 errors, but I am getting alerts that say I'm missing H1 tags on numerous pages. However, there are H1 tags on all pages of our website, and when I search the source code, the H1 tags show up. If someone could help me figure out why I'm getting these alerts, and what I can do to "fix" them, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
