Occurrences of Keyword - Report card
-
Hi
WHen I run the report card for a particular keyword - URL its says "Occurrences of Keyword 0" however I there is the keywords in the page at least twice and exact match of keywords x1 ? any help would be appricated. For some reason google is just not indexing any keyword that I have optimized page for either. I have checked and they are all "follow" thanks

Thank you for your help.

Hi Pania,
Any chance you could share the URL and the keyword combination you're using? If you're not comfortable sharing publicly, feel free to write the help team (help @ moz.com) and they should be able to get things sorted out for you.

Hi Pania, has this issue been sorted out?

Hi Pania,
Sorry to hear about the confusion with the On Page report card. In order to help, there's a couple things we can do;
- If you're comfortable sharing, you could post the keyword/URL combination and the community here may be able to diagnose the problem
- Otherwise, this may be a good problem for the help team (help@moz.com) as they will keep all your information private.
Regardless, we'd love to help you get to the bottom of this. Cheers.

I wonder if you might be thinking that placing keywords in the keyword meta tag is what you are supposed to be doing. Be sure that the keywords you are optimizing for are in the body of the page, not just in the meta description tag.
Also as a matter of semantics:
- Google indexes a page regardless of what the page was optimized for (provided, as you mention, it's not prevented from doing so). You can check if your page is indexed by typing this search: site:[your domain.com] or site:[your domain.com/specific_page]
- Google provides results for pages that are optimized for specific keywords and that it determines are the most appropriate for the search query.

Ok, so I think this question is kind of confusing...
On-Page report card only checks for exact match keyword within the page... for instance if the keyword is “whiteboard markers”, it will only search for the exact keywords instead of keywords attached with it... this means if you have used the word “whiteboardmarkers (without space)” or “whiteboard with markers” it will not e considered as the keywords that you are trying to check within the content.
If the keywords available within the content are not exact match they will not be counted as keywords in this report card!
If you are using the exact match keyword and Google or Mozbot cannot read your content at all then maybe you are using iframe to display the content on the page or some similar factor.
Hope this helps!

Keyword cannibalization
Hello - We have a blog that ranks for 124 different keywords (URL: https://www.clickboarding.com/18-jaw-dropping-onboarding-stats-you-need-to-know/), and it's cannibalizing other keywords that I'm writing blogs specifically for. For example, the blog mentioned above ranks for "employee onboarding process," and I have a different blog I wrote with "employee onboarding process" as the focus keyword that's not ranking at all. Any suggestions or insight is hugely appreciated! Julie K.

Keyword stuffing - on page grader count
I used the on page grader for my homepage, www.cprnj.com, and it said the keyword "physical therapy" was used 26 times in the body of the page. But I can't find more than 4. How exactly is keyword stuffing accounted for, and is there some place that I am not seeing the keywords?

Branded keywords
I'm trying to understand this concept a little further. Say if I create a branded keyword, "dc widgets" I then start to add keywords such as "maker" "toy" and apply the branded keyword to it. Does this mean that they then become "maker dc widgets" and "toy dc widgets" ? What purpose does branded keywords offer?

How to change the compare date range on the keyword rankings report?
I'm new to SEO Moz, but not to SEO. I like SEOMoz's keyword rankings, but I also like to show clients improvement (hopefully) from the previous months' ranks. The default appears to be 1-week. How can you show improvement/decline from the previous month?

Problem with the keyword difficulty tool
sorry if this has been asked/been written about previously, I had a search but couldn't find anything. I am using the keyword difficulty tool to narrow down on some keywords and whilst the % score for each keyword is being displayed, the Google Adwords data is blank. It just shows the animation as if it was pulling the data but after some ten mins or so not data is pulled, just the animation still running. Is there a problem with the tool or does the problem lay at my end? Thanks, Carl

Where is the keyword difficulty tool data sourced from?
I also use Market Samurai, and I've noticed what seem to be big discrepancies with the keyword data presented by this (data comes from Majestic SEO) and the Keyword Difficulty Tool. To take just one example, I analyze the term "how to remove tea stains" In the Keyword Difficulty Tool, this returns the following: Root Domain Linking Root Domains: 2,233 Page Linking Root Domains: 4 When I use Market Samurai, however, the data returned is: RDD (Domains linking to this domain): 19,911 RDP (Domains linking to this page): 19 I thought that these two metrics were the same for both tools, but I've written them out in case someone sees a difference. As I say, Market Samurai data is sourced from Majestic SEO - a reputable SEO company - but I have no idea where the Keyword Difficulty Tool data is from, nor why these differences are so pronounced? Are they indeed the same metrics in both cases, or am I missing something? Any insight would be much appreciated.

On Page Report Card... with or w/o local modifiers?
Hey all! So I am curious how you recommend using the "on page report card" (which is really helpful) along with the concept of local modifiers. IE, here is a term I am going after: business forums but really I care about a specific location: business forums | Greensboro NC So the word I hear is typically to do your keyword research & page optimization FOR the primary term, but then tack on your local modifiers after. So which do you run reports on? Probably both is the best answer, eh? Obviously my local sites won't have a shot at ranking nationally/internationally for such a broad term as "business forums", especially with some monster sites out there with some serious clout. This is more of a best practices question. Thanks dudes.
