Yes, they will count. Take a look at EGOL's answer on this.

RE: Url structure with dash or slashposted in On-Page Optimization
It's such a subtle difference SEO wise (if, in fact, there is a difference at all) that it really works out to what's best in terms of the user experience (internally or externally). I wouldn't waste much time considering it--just pick the one that seems to work best for your architecture/visitors and go with it.

RE: My website disappears off google!posted in Search Behavior
Any drops in traffic during those times? How many times has it disappeared? If you made substantial changes to the pages that were showing up in the results (content, navigation, programming), that could possibly cause such a thing.

RE: Reasonable Cost for Link Building Serviceposted in Intermediate & Advanced SEO
Alan,
I have feeling that if you have to ask that question and your thinking starts off in the under $500 range, you may have a hard time understanding or recognizing why the actual cost for what you're looking for is going to be so much higher--and what you will actually be getting for your money. In any case, you should be prepared to sign a year agreement that binds you to pay a total yearly sum and that stipulates exactly what your contractor is going to achieve for you. Absent that, one or both parties is very likely back out early because of misunderstandings of what is being provided and/or what is required.
Linkbuilding is by no means a causal engagement--the future of your company/website is at stake. Just as you would educate yourself for any major investment by your company, you should be very, very well educated on the topic of linkbuilding before investing your company's money in it.

RE: Text analysis Tool: WDF*IDF - Within Document Freqeuncy x Inverse Document Frequency / tools?posted in Moz Pro
My personal feeling about term frequencies on pages is that it's like chasing your tail. Whatever way Google uses term frequency measurements is so wrapped up with a bunch of other machine learning algorithms that you couldn't possibly come to any real conclusions about its employment as a stand alone factor.
It's time to jump off the frequency bandwagon. As Matt Cutts says, Google is moving from "strings to things"--meaning a more holistic understanding of the page is where things are going.
