Is there a way to download a report showing all meta descriptions for our web pages?
-
I see how to look at data for web pages with meta descriptions that have been flagged as being less than optimal. Is there a way to do a complete download of the meta descriptions on all our pages? (good meta as well as not so good) Thanks! Lydia

Absolutely, there are a few ways you can gather meta descriptions for your web pages. One method involves using tools like Screaming Frog or Sitebulb, which crawl your site and generate reports containing various SEO-related information, including meta descriptions. These tools can export reports in different formats like CSV or Excel, allowing you to analyze and review your meta descriptions easily.
Alternatively, if you have access to your website's backend or content management system (CMS), you might be able to extract meta descriptions directly from there, either through built-in reporting features or by exporting the necessary data.
Would you like more specific guidance on using any particular tool or method?

Hi Lydia - Dave from Moz support here.
If you have a Site Crawl or On Demand Crawl of your site. You can export a CSV of your "All Crawled Pages". This will include a column of Meta Descriptions for each page crawled. This export will also include information of other data that we report on.
We hope that helps, if you have further questions on this, feel free to reach out to help@moz.com.
Thanks!

Hey Lydia!
You can simply perform a site crawl using using Screaming Frog. From there, you can select the "Meta Descriptions" tab and click "Export" which should provide you with all of your site' meta descriptions.

No backlinks reporting in MOZ OSE?
We have a bunch of links and none of them report in MOZ OSE. Does the MOZ OSE tool have a cache that takes a while to refresh? We have recently moved over to CloudFlare and since the move the numbers do not add up. Here is a link to a ahrefs screenshot. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. moz.png

None of the pages crawled contain an email address or links to a social profile...
I'm trying to reduce the amount of spam flags our website has using the Open Site Explorer tool. Currently, we have 2/17 flags based on: Large Site with Few Links - We found very few sites linking to this site, considering its size No Contact Info - None of the pages crawled contain an email address or links to a social profile The "few links" can be ignored, we're working on this. We don't have a visible email address on the website and we don't particularly want one. We prefer customers to fill out our online form or to call us. Moz say "none of the pages crawled contain an email address OR links to a social profile" - we do have social buttons on every page of the website, but these are official Facebook and Twitter buttons that are rendered with Javascript, so don't actually appear in the page source on load. If we replace these with actual links to our pages using Facebook and Twitter icons, will this flag be removed since Moz are saying "or links to a social profile" - making it sound optional. Thanks!

Why is the company reference of "designed by" with a link back my web development site not being indexed as a link?
Using the Mozbar I am analyzing my links and my competitors links. I am noticing other web developer sites are getting credit/index links from all their client's websites with the "designed by...." link in the footer. However, for me I only see one "inbound link" in the link analysis report. Sometimes I notice a company getting several inbound links on one site they built. I have built many other sites and have my company link below on all the footers. Why are the other sites not showing up as "inbound links" on the link analysis report? Thanks for your help! Nikki

Sites internal links are not showing as inbound links
My sites internal links are not showing as inbound links while my competitor site’s internal links are showing as their inbound links (In OSE). Is my site’s inter-linking weak? Or there could be other reasons.

Why does facebook, twitter, pinterest show up for links?
Hello, As I have used site explorer on competition sites, I am curious what I need to do to have my facebook, twitter, and pinterest links to shop up as a backlink? I see some other sites have it, even if its a nofollow, but curious if I am doing something wrong? I have had accounts since last year. Just curious if I am doing something wrong, Thank you Chris
