Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks, Peter, for taking your time to look at this. I am sure I am just looking at something incorrectly. I have responded to the ticket, but we may want to post the answer to this here, in case it helps someone else.

I have been noticing that the Rankings listed in the emails are far different from the ones in my report once I log in. Any idea what this is about?

Often the rankings in the email are much better then in the report. And I am talking about on the same day as the email was sent out, not a week later.

I looked at Meta tag verification errors, and am beginning to think that another staff member may be working off an much older copy of the index page when certain changes are required and that is how this is happening. In which case, the HTML file would work better. We are going to try that will all of the sites and see if that reduces the problem, or if it keeps happening. And THANKS for the link to the verification errors. I Googled and Googled this issue, even on their own forums, and nothing.

I see these on my dashboard. I am a webmaster with a lot of sites in GWT, and they will all be verified with the meta, and the next time I log in, in a few weeks or a month, several are labeled as: Verify This Site, again. Arggg.

I used to use those, but found that dumb people on their staff wouldn't recognize that file and would sometimes get rid of it. Arrrgggg. Might have to try it again and just tell them again to leave the file there. Thanks for the tip.

Why do these keep changing for sites that I have verfied over and over and over and over? About a month goes by and the meta code has changed and the site is unverified again. Seems like a trick to force you into logging into Webmaster Tools all the time. What gives???

Thank you so very very much!!

I sent you the URL by private message.

Due to necessary pagination on the site that sells thousands of products, and due to products being assigned to more than one category in the Miva Merchant store, we have been battling duplicate content, and Meta tag issues.

I asked lot of questions on the Miva forum on how to use rel canonical in Miva, and got this script below to use. It was supposed to solve all of our problems, but now it seems that every page of the site is under Rel Canonical Notices in the Crawl Diagnostics.

I am not sure I am reading the Notices correctly, and if we achieved what we want or not.

Here is an example of one listing:

URL: http://www.domain.com/ABUS.html
Tag Value: http://www.domain.com/
Page Authority: 28
Linking Root Domains: 1
