Moz Reporting a brand page as KW stuffed for the the brand KW, not a problem i presume ?
-
Hi
if I'm getting a keyword stuffing warning on Moz for a brand page for the brand name kw that shouldn't really matter should it?
Moz just oversimplifying it since seen the brand name says 27 times on a page think it's stuffed, but if its a 2000 word page all about the brand, those occurrences are totally natural & hence Google will think so too generally speaking?
Thanks

Hi Dan!
Thanks so much for the question! The On Page Grader tool will look for a specific number of instances that a keyword is used- once that limit is reached, the flag for keyword stuffing will be triggered regardless of the total size of the document. I hope that helps to clarify how the tools works! If you have any other questions or need anything else, please feel free to email us at help@moz.com.

cool thanks, yes its all natural, its a brand page on my ecommerce store for one of the vendors whose products i sell , so all natural

Google would be intelligent enough to think around that scenario, unless the brand term was not from a brand-aligned query-space
For example, if you're "Coca Cola", well you can tell from Google's results it's a brand query-space. Google knows that 'coca cola' is a brand and will act accordingly
If however, you're trying to cheat the system by 'warping' a well known keyword into your own brand-term (say your company is called "car insurance") - then Google may be far less forgiving

great thanks for confirming that Joram

You should indeed always judge the number of occurences in regards to the total number of word on the page. In this case this is only 1,4% which is absolutely normal.

Why did Moz crawl our development site?
In our Moz Pro account we have one campaign set up to track our main domain. This week Moz threw up around 400 new crawl errors, 99% of which were meta noindex issues. What happened was that somehow Moz found the development/staging site and decided to crawl that. I have no idea how it was able to do this - the robots.txt is set to disallow all and there is password protection on the site. It looks like Moz ignored the robots.txt, but I still don't have any idea how it was able to do a crawl - it should have received a 401 Forbidden and not gone any further. How do I a) clean this up without going through and manually ignoring each issue, and b) stop this from happening again? Thanks!

Custom Report Dates
Is it possible to run manual reports for set dates? I would like to give a current standing report to a client rather than wait a whole month.

Ranking report not accurate
I've justed signed up for SEOMOZ and testing out the ranking report software. For a client that I'm doing an audit for I've ran a ranking report against the keywords. Using Chrome Incognito I've checked the ranking and they are on the 1st page but the ranking report is showing they aren't in the top 43, any ideas why this might be? I've checked my setting and set up and that's all fine.

Image Asset pages shown to have Page Authority

Duplicate Page Titles and Content
The SeoMoz crawler has found many pages like this on my site with /?Letter=Letter, e.g. http://www.johnsearles.com/metal-art-tiles/?D=A. I believe it is finding multiple caches of a page and identifying them as duplicates. Is there any way to screen out these multiple cache results?

Page Rank and offline sites
I have a domain with PR6 according to the Historical Pagerank Checker. But that last PR was calculated 2 years ago. I brought the site back online a few days ago and have checked that many/most of the backlinks are still valid. It is now in the Google index but the Historical Pagerank Checker shows PR0. Will it get back its previous rank or something close to it? How long will it take?
