My title has a TM symbol and Moz says I don't have the keyword in my title
-
Moz gave me a poor rating because I don't have the keyword in my title but I do, it just has a trademark symbol.
Pelican 1500 Case is the keyword I'd like to rank for on this page: http://www.thepelicanstore.com/pelican-1500-case-1014.aspx
Moz says the keyword doesn't exist on the page. Should I ignore it, remove it or otherwise change it? I feel the trademark symbol would help with CTR in the title.
-
I am sure it is not seeing the exact match because of the TM, I am just wondering if it is something I should consider changing or ignoring. I will send an email right now Chris. Thanks!

Ignoring Moz's recommendation was what I was leaning towards, I just didn't want to assume. Every time "Pelican" is used, I have the TM symbol, I suppose I could exclude it in the body copy and sub headings to be sure.
-
Its likely because its attempting to find an exact match so if you have Moz tracking [Pelican] it won't see [Pelican] as the same thing.

Im not sure how the trademarked symbol would play into click through rates but when I put the url in screaming frog and checked the source code I can see the keyword in the title. You can also run a search by "site:thepelicanstore.com/pelican-1500-case-1014.aspx" and you can see the title showing up in Google's search results.
I would ignore the moz rating

How Does Moz Spam Score Increase and Decrease?
Hello Moz Community, I'm facing spam score issue on my site General Queen according to MOZ my website spam score is 30% but anybody can explain how can i decrease it? Firstly I disavowed all low-quality and high spam score links (6 months ago) but my spam score was not decreased after that I created some high-quality and 0 spam score backlinks but still, my spam score is same 😞 According to Moz link explorer, my domain backlinks spam score ratio was below; Stats of 14 July 2019 .. Screen shot is attached 1-30% .. 45.3%

31-60% .. 32.1%
61-100% .. 22.6% Stats of 13 June 2020 .. Screen shot is attached 1-30% .. 65.1%
31-60% .. 30.7%
61-100% .. 4.2% You can see a huge difference in the backlinks spam score in it. But why my spam score is still 30%? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks & Regards, abu1NiB XGLkr5z1 -
Internal Equity-Passing Links not getting crawled in Moz Open Site Explorer?
Internal Equity-Passing Links not getting crawled in Moz Open Site Explorer. What is the cause of this? We've checked the robots.txt and htaccess file, but so far we can't find anything that would be blocking Moz from crawling the internal links. We manage loads of other clients on this platform and this is the first time we've run into this issue. What else can I check?

Moz Pro: Linking RDs to Page much lower than Google Search Console
I'm trying to use the Analyze Keyword tool in Moz Pro, and in the SERP Analysis table, my page has a PA of one, and zero root domains linking to it. If I look at the page in Google Search console, it says I have 229 root domains linking to the page from well known domains like github.com, meetup.com, stackoverflow.com, etc. This particular keyword has been tracked in Moz for the last 6 months, but I just noticed that it was extremely low. I am relatively new to Moz, so forgive me if I sound confused, but can someone explain to me how the numbers can be so low?

6 Months and still no PA/DA or links by Moz Explorer?
Hi, It's been 6 months and my site is still showing no PA/DA or backlinks according to moz opensite explorer. I know that it has backlinks as I created them myself, and I know its crawlable and the links is there as GWT tells me so. Also you can check for yourself on ahrefs.com. Is Moz indexed pages that much smaller then the other crawlers? The site in question is amanandvan247.com. Thanks.

How Does Moz Assign Domain Authority?
When I use Site Explorer to test the following URL, http://jennathuening.results.net/site/index.php, it renders a domain authority of 47. (Clients site on real estate host) There are no page social metrics: no Facebook share no Facebook likes no Twitter tweets no Google+ plus 1's no "just discovered" in 60 days no one has made a post in 3 weeks much or most of the content is duplicate content across all affiliate sites inbound links - only one link - a 301 redirect http://jennathuening.results.net/ Images - 18 (Alt tags missing: 18) Created - 1998-10-15 Registered Org - REMAX RESULTS is associated with ~416 other domains Whois SEO Score 68% AND YET IT HAS A ROOT DOMAIN OF "47" and page authority of 33 More confusing, its page authority of 33 is at that top on blue background and then page 30 just listed below. When I use Site Explorer to test the following URL, http://www.homedestination.com, it renders a domain authority of 26. (Site personally owned and continually update with highly optimized fresh, relevant, quality content with grade "A" moz ranked pages and blog posts) 92 Facebook share 68 Facebook likes 13 Twitter tweets 420 Google+ plus 1's 2 "just discovered" in 60 days Images 25 (Alt tags missing: 0) inbound links - on 48 Root Domains Created - 2002-08-15 9 new indexed blog post so far in August / 19 new indexed blog post in July Whois SEO Score 100% AND YET IT HAS A ROOT DOMAIN OF "26" and page authority of 36 While I am sure there are many other factors as well; it still is hard to see where a "smaller guy" could ever be given an even opportunity to play in the same SEO arena. Could you help me understand better? I like to build a stronger marketing and optimization strategy as we are just beginning AdWord campaigns. | SEO Score | 100% |

How long does it take for moz to index new domain?
Hi, Two months ago we changed our site www.jicht.nl to jicht.nl. Everthing is redirected properly but the page authority remains 1. How long does is take rogerbot to index the site without www? Google rankings are also dropping so there might be a bigger issue. Thanx

Moz & Other Sites Not Showing in Link Profile?
I'm curious to know why Moz, YouTube, G+ and some other links are not showing the OSE link profile as NOFOLLOW or DOFOLLOW for our website whiteboardcreations.com? When doing analysis, we see a lot of companies YouTube pages with their NF link and G+ page links and even see a lot of the Moz community members with their Profile pages showing the NF link or the DF links. I'm confused as to why OSE is not picking up any of our links from those respective sites. Any thoughts? Thank you in advance. - Patrick
