On-Page Report Card with https
-
Hi,
Our site has a 301 redirect to https and I'm getting two different grades for my pages depending upon whether I type:
https://www.domain.com (gets an A grade)
or www.domain.com (gets a C grade)
Is there a setting I need to use to make sure my campaign knows our site is at https?
Thank you

Hi there,
I'd have to know the keywords you were using to see for sure. But I just tested a keyword from your campaign and saw similar results. It's most likely because When you run the report without the http you aren't getting the credit for the canonical tag you have.
When you run it for https, you are getting the credit for appropriate use of the rel canonical tag.
That's why you're seeing two different scores.If you want to get more in depth, you're welcome to provide keywords here or email help@seomoz.org
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Joel. -
Hi Prasad,
Thanks for the reply!
It's actually not help with the grade that's the problem. It's the fact that www.ownmyip.com gets a C grade and https://www.ownmyip.com get an A grade. I'm wondering why the same page grades differently depending upon the use of https or http.
Maybe it doesn't matter to our SEO but clarification would be cool.
Thanks again.

Hi,
I have not find any place to set the domain is http or https. But you can have an idea about the reason to happen like this by go through the suggestion given by On-page Optimization tool.
Also better if you can post here, what are the suggestions you got with that C grade. Hope it will helpful for others to give you a good response.
Anyway I always suggest you to use actual url to check the on-page report when using the tool.
Regards
Prasad

How to deal with filter pages - Shopify
Hi there, /collections/living-room-furniture/black
On-Page Optimization | | williamhuynh
/collections/living-room-furniture/fabric Is that ok to make all the above filter pages canonicalised with their main category /collections/living-room-furniture Also, does it needs to be noindex, follow as well? Note - already removed the content from filter pages, updated meta tags as well. Please advice, thank you1 -
Combine poorly ranking pages into a single page?
I'm doing on-page optimizations for an apartment management company, and they have about seven apartments listed on their site. Rather than include everything on the same page - /apartments/apartment-name/ - they have the following setup: /apartments/apartment-name/contact /apartments/apartment-name/features /apartments/apartment-name/availability /apartments/apartment-name/gallery /apartments/apartment-name/neighborhood With very few exceptions, none of these pages appear to rank for anything, and those that do either rank very poorly for seemingly random keywords or for keywords like the apartment complex name (alongside the main landing page for the complex). I'm of the mind to recommend combining the pages into a single one that contains all the info, eliminates the chances for duplicate content (all of the neighborhood pages contain the same content verbatim), and prevents keyword cannibalization. Thoughts? Thanks.

Duplicate Page Titles
It seems as though we are being flagged for duplicate page titles when really they are slightly different. Is it better to remove the "dart board" or "dart board backboard" from all the product titles? We were doing this for optimal SEO - to rank for the search of "dart board" - but is it really hurting us? for example, our product titles are: Obama dart board backboard, Texas dart board backboard, Oklahoma dart board backboard, etc. Yet they are being flagged as duplicate titles.

Updated page not ranking.
Hi Guys. Bit flummoxed by this. I've recently updated our Mid year diaries page to be this years mid year products. i.e) Diaries that go from 2015-16 not 2014-15. Last year we rank really well for the search term 'mid year diaries 14-15'. All i've done is update the page to be focused on 2015-16 diaries, but when i type in 'mid year diaries 15-16' it's no where to be seen in the SERP. Even our home page is ranking higher! I'm really puzzled about this, nothings changed apart from the year! The only reason I can think of is that Google is reading the file name of the images which are related to lasts years products? For example the file name might say mid year diary 2014-15. Do you think this is what's effecting us? Very puzzling 😕 I've submitted it through Webmaster tool btw 🙂 Isaac.

If I put 'keyword/url' combination to 'stop run weekly', will it dissapear from the summary page in the on-page grader?
The summary page of the on-page grader chooses the keyword and url combination itself. Now if I choose another combination, I would like the former to dissapear from the summary page. The only option is 'stop running weekly'. But will it disappear from the list also?

Home Page Keyword Retargeting
Hi Guys! I have a question regarding the risk of **re-targeting **your homepage to another **keyword. ** To give a little background: I am working on a clients site that targets a keyword we initially thought during the keyword research phase, would be an appropriate target. What we found out is that it is not. Everything in analytics points to this keyword not performing well. We now want to re target the homepage to another keyword target. My questions are: How risky is it to do this given we have already done a fair amount of link building to the home page with anchor text from the initial keyword target? Will this look suspicious to google? What sort of things should we consider before moving forward with this change?
