Wrong coded entities
-
Hi, i one of the description text I have found some wrong coded HTML entities. Do you know if someone can fix this bug (see pic) ?
-
Hey all,
Thanks for the heads! I'll get this taken care of.
Cheers,
Joel. -
A quick note to help@seomoz.org would be the fastest way. I'll assign this ticket to the help team, and they can get the encoding error fixed. Thanks for pointing it out!

I know, just wanted to tell SEOMoz that the programmer fucked it up with the double entities encoding and I didn't know where to post it / report the bug.

don't pay any attention to that. nothing is wrong, it is just a SEO suggestion to add a bold or strong etc, tag to your keyword phrase on page to give it a little more SEO weight.
For example if your keyword is "Barack oBummer" they are suggesting you code somewhere on the page like this:
Barack oBummer or
Barack oBummer

Is Search Visibility actually weighted by search volume at all? Everyone seems to think so, but that seems completely wrong?
As I've been exploring Moz more, I've been looking into search visibility and what it actually represents. While searching for answers on Moz, I've seen several posts that all seem to think the search volume for keywords matters at all for the search visibility metric, and I'm wondering why anyone thinks that, when everything from Moz seems to indicate otherwise. https://moz.com/help/guides/moz-pro-overview/rankings/search-visibility describes the calculation as taking the CTR for each keyword, based on rank, summing those, and dividing by the number of keywords. This describes a simple, and completely unweighted by search volume, average. This means that if you are tracking 10 keywords, and rank #1 on 5 that have a search volume of 0-10, and are unranked on 5 that have a search volume of 70,801-118,000, that would generate exactly the same search visibility score as if you rank #1 on the 5 high volume, and are unranked on the 5 low volume. The above all makes search visibility look like a much less valuable metric than if it were appropriately weighted by volume, as well as potentially very misleading, since the % relates solely to the number of keywords in your analyzed segment, rather than to the % of search volume that you're obtaining (unless a) all of your keywords are the same rank, or b) all of your keywords have the same volume). Am I missing something, or is everyone just giving Moz way too much credit when it comes to the value of the search visibility metric?

Screaming frog, Xenu, Moz giving wrong results
Hello guys and gals, This is a very odd one, I've a client's website and most of the crawlers I'm using are giving me weird/ wrong results. For now lets focus on screaming frog, when I crawl the site it will list e.g. meta titles as missing (not all of them though), however going into the site the title is not missing, and Google seems to be indexing the site fine. The robots.txt are not affecting the site (I've also tried changing the user agent). The other odd thing is SF gives a 200 code but as a status tells me "connection refused" even though it's giving me data. I'm unable to share the clients site, has any one else seen this very odd issue? And solutions for it? Many thanks in advanced for any help,

Errors in my coding how significant is this regarding rankings ?
I posted a question on here yesterday about the homepage asking for advice regarding the content and then was told by two people were very helpful bbut moved over comment not on content but to say taht the major problem was that the coding on my website basically has too many errors which would result in me receiving lower rankings in the search engines. I realise this website is old-fashioned Dreamweaver template which was constructed several years ago which I've updated and I'm certainly not a professional, but I watch my Google analytics and there doesn't seem to be any significant change in the stats from this time last year. This is the site http://www.endeavourcottage.co.uk/ I realise the site is old format and has been around for several years it's just from customer feedback they seem to think it looks okay for the products old cottages but I guess technically it's not the best now. I have run a test using Silktide Nibbler - a free online service that gives you a good complete overview of your website with an overall score. And it did give my website an overall good score but did point out errors in the coding but when I checked some of my competitors near the top of Google for the short tail keywords some of them also have errors in their coding, very similar to my own error score.. I then went to Google Webmaster tools and there were no warning messages. So the big question is how important are these errors scores when it appears that most of the top competition also are in the same situation? I think it's quite possible I could do with a redesign using responsive design Best Alan

GA Profile - Change UA code
Hi I have two sites under one account in GA. The two sites have the same UA code but with different suffixes (-1 and -2). I want SEOMoz to only track the -2 site but I am unable to enter the UA code directly. Is there a way to do this, or do I need to set-up a new account in GA? Any help appreciated. Chris
