When using Wordpress, why does it show up so many meta data errors on here and on google webmaster? A list of do's would be good?
-
Using wordpress is a good CMS, yet there sre so many meta data errors occuring, is there a list of what to look out for and good practices when using wordpress?

To answer part 2, if your CSS knowledge is advanced or at least really good, there aren't any design limitations. There are several themes designed for specifically for customization (weaver, blankslate) . Add to that a couple cool plugins (jShortcodes) and you've got total control of the look.

Thanks Dave.
Another question to anyone, does everybody use wordpress as the no.1 CMS, or what alternatives do people consider are just as good for the basis for a veriety of buillding websites like Expression Engine or Modx?
Also, if wordpress is the main CMS used by the majority of web designers, then does that limit the creativity of the web designer by the constraints of the CMS of wordpress?

Gary is there anything you recommend to change in the standard settings that Greg provides, or not to change?
-
Thanks Gary, do you just add the plugin and change a setting or two? Do you have to edit any code in the header editor?

You should have a look for a wordpress plugin that lets you do some basic SEO. Do a search on the plugin search and you will find lots. I personalyl use "Greg's High Performance SEO" which lets me set the meta-description etc. for my blog pages.

This is my newest website with having learnt from previous mistakes, but again this is telling me I've got over 22 tags that are missing some meta description. How do I avoid that? There's a couple of URL's I'll have a look at, but I think sometimes theres not alot you can do. There's something not quite right, any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
....After doing some research on here, would the "rel=canonical" be where I am going wrong? I've added a Canonical plugin to see if that does the trick.

Meta no index crawler warnings
I've decided that the duplicate content issues on my site weren't worth the effort from the amount of traffic the archive pages on my WordPress site received no I decided to no-index them using Yoast. Now I have 60 meta no-index crawler warnings. Should I just ignore these? It seems I get warnings, either way, I use the site. Does anyone have advice on how to move on with this?

I have 2 linking root domains on my URL. But I don't get the whole Root domain thing. So I don't understand how I can improve it?
I have 2 linking root domains on my URL. But I don't get the whole Root domain thing. So I don't understand how I can improve it? I copy and pasted this, from my Links page in my campaign because I can't seem to grasp what a root domain is: 'A higher number of good quality linking root domains improves a page's ranking potential'. Can some one explain to me what this is. As simply as possible. Here's my site www.Thumannagency.com Thanks in advance:)

Why don't Google+ URL's work in OSE?
Is there any reason why Google+ URLs does not work in OSE? Is it just that it is a secure URL or is there something bigger there? Why? Be cool to determine every website the person has been published on; especially if it is rel="author" verified. Jeff

Loss of Google AdWords API
Since August, we've had intermittent access to the Google Adwords API. Like others in this space, they've let us know that our access has been revoked. We've been working to restore this access, but unfortunately, we have not been able to do so. In the meantime we are working hard to find a suitable replacement that is both stable and a good fit for our customers’ needs. We wanted to let our PRO members know, first to apologize, and second to explain how this has impacted your PRO access. We understand how important it is to have all your keyword data in one place, and we're sorry for any disruptions you've experienced from not having this data source in our app.We do want to clarify that this change does not affect your data from Google Analytics. The products affected by this change are our **Keyword Analysis tool and the keyword details and **keyword analysis pages within our web app. We removed this keyword query volume data within PRO a little earlier this year. You can still generate reports, but the metrics previously pulled from the Google Adwords data source is no longer there.The good news is, we don't actually use the Google AdWords data in our calculation of keyword difficulty, so these reports are still 100% accurate—they're just missing the information we usually pull from the API, which you can find on the Google AdWords Keyword Tool here. We're so sorry about this, and understand how frustrating the loss of this data is. We're hoping to have an alternative data source soon, and we will keep you posted as we make progress. Please feel free to comment, ask questions, and get help by replying to this post. Thank you!

My Campaign just picked up the .com.au site and is showing data
I've got a campaign set up here in SEOmoz and it appears that it just started picking up data for a site that is not mine. Our site is examplesite.com and i noticed that SEOmoz has begun including examplesite.com.au and is showing 20,000 302's from this site. The .com.au site is in no way related to our business and should not be tracked in our campaign. Has this happened to anyone else?
