On page report card 410 error
-
I have been trying to test my site through the on page report card using our primary keyword phrase, however, I keep getting the following error message:
We were unable to grade that page. The page did not load. Got a 410 response code from server
If I try the same search and keyword phrase on other sites, it does work. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Nick,
Sure, URL: http://www.duesoon.com.au/store/pregnancy-pilates/ and keyword phrase 'Pregnancy exercise dvd'. I have tried this tool using various URL's from my site as well as keywords and receive the same error message. I am very new at SEO stuff and we are currently employing our web developer to work on some major keywords for us. I am trying to broaden my SEO knowledge so that I can upload new products and content in a google friendly way, and so that I can identify and target other keywords in the future. Our domain is hosted on our webdevelopers server, so I wonder if the comment Valery made regarding the server blocking the MozBot could be the issue. I have contacted our developer to check.
I very much appreciate everyones help and suggestions as well as the excellent tools and information provided by SEOMoz!

Hey there!
Do you mind sharing the URL and kw? I would love to take a deeper look at the issue.

Hi Naomi,
Since the problem is happening when you are using the On-page Tool, I would suggest you send an email direct to the SEOmoz Help Team providing the URL, keyword phrase and campaign number (if there is one). Any time that you are seeing results from the tools which seem strange, it is a good idea to ask the Help Team
The address to send your request to is help [at] seomoz.org
Hope that helps,
Sha

410 is a weird error to be having; it means 'this page is gone'. Not 'missing' (404) but just 'gone', as in the server knew it had that page at one point and now no longer does. There's only two things I can think of off-hand that might cause it:
1. MozBot is messing up somehow, and returning this weird error message when it should be reporting a 'real' error (e.g. 'blocked by robots.txt', 404, 401, etc.) Double check your robots.txt entries, if any.
2. Your server is somehow configured to give the 410 message to the MozBot. I assume you're not getting this message when you visit this page in a normal browser. On UNIX platforms you might want to check the .htaccess file and see if there are any directives that end in [G], or have custom error handlers like in this article:

Keyword ranking for different page than the page optimized
I have optimized "equipment trailer for rent" on this page: http://www.bigtrailerrentals.com/flatbed-trailer-rentals/equipment-deckover. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me why Google has chosen to rank the keyword phrase for this page: http://www.bigtrailerrentals.com/flatbed-trailer-rentals/equipment-24 This is just one example. It has happened on several of my pages / keywords.

FAQ page structure
I have read in other discussions that having all questions on an FAQ page is the way to go and then if the question has an answer worthy of its own page, you should abbreviate the answer and link to the page with more content. My question is when using some templates in WP, they have a little + button you can click and it reveal the answer to the question. Does this hurt SEO versus having all text visible and then using headers/subheaders? An example of the + button https://fyrfyret.dk/faq/

Pages or Blog posts?
Hi, I am currently building content for a customer's website. There are approximately 50 new content pages I am building about the business, products they serve, how-tos and tips and advice. The website is built on Wordpress so my question is would it be best to post this content as a different blog posts or as separate pages in Wordpress and link them up to a 'hub page' as mentioned on this post about How to rank (point 16) Thanks for any advice.

Search Pages outranking Product Pages
A lot of the results seen in the search engines for our site are pages from our search results on our site, i.e. Widgets | Search Results This has happened over time and wasn't intentional, but in many cases we see our search results pages appearing over our actual product pages in search, which isn't ideal. Simply blocking indexing of these pages via robots wouldn't be ideal, at least all at once as we would have that period of time where those Search Results pages would be offline and our product pages would still be at the back of ranking. Any ideas on a strategy to replace these Search Results with the actual products in a way that won't hurt us too bad during the transition? Or a way to make the actual product pages rank above the search results? Currently, it is often the opposite. Thanks! Craig

View all Page for Product Overview Pages
Hi everybody! We have an ecommerce site with product overview pages, where sometimes there are hundreds of products listed. Usually, we just display 30 and have a button where users can click to see 30 more - or all products listed at once. This is the overview page (as indexed in google): http://www.geschenkidee.ch/aussergewoehnliches.html
On-Page Optimization | | zeepartner
And this is the view-all page: http://www.geschenkidee.ch/aussergewoehnliches.html#all What should I do here? The product overview page will hardly generate more traffic by listing all products (because the overview page will rank for generic keywords, while the product keyword searches will be referred to the specific product pages themselves). I was originally thinking of using rel=canonical pointing to the view-all page. But this would just lead to longer load time. Should we just leave those overview pages or is there a best practice for how to deal with such pages? Thanks for your thoughts on this!0 -
Why does the on page report reports a full path link as Cannibalize link?
On the seomoz on page report i get a cannibalize error. This is due to a link being full path. When i change the link to relative path then there is no Cannibalize error. Should i change the internal links of the site to relative path? I would appreciate your help.

Too Many On-Page Links
Hi All, New to SEOMoz, so thanks in advance for any answers! Looking at our Crawl Diagnostics and "Too Many On-Page Links" is first on the list. The site was build with the intention of users being able to quickly get to where they want to go with drop down menus (sub nav), so we built the navigation using bullet points/css. Yes, agreed there are too many links on each page from our navigation, main nav cats are 4 with sub nav about 40, but what is the best way to resolve the problem other then removing most of the links (from the sub nav drop down)? Could we just use the attribute rel=nofollow for the sub nav links? TIA

Duplicate Page Title
Hi Guys, First off, it's an honour to be a part of this awesome community. I'm using WordPress and getting top 3 rankings for great keywords and I'm very excited, however my page titles are in this format "keyword optimised title here - site name here" eg: "This is my keyword - this is the name of my blog", "This is another keyword - this is the name of my blog", "This is a longtail keyword - this is the name of my blog" SEOMoz is reporting errors because of duplicate page title tags due to the "this is the name of my blog" being in every page title. Will this hurt my rankings? Thanks in advance and keep up the great work! Cheers, Troy.
