Too many on-page links
-
I received a warning in my most recent report for too many on-page links for the following page: http://www.fateyes.com/blog/. I can't figure out why this would be. I am counting between 60-70 including all pull downs, "read more's", archive, category and a few additional misc. links. Any ideas or suggestions on this? Or what I might do to rectify? Perhaps it's just an SEOmoz report blip...
We currently don't have the post list rolling to additional pages so it's kind of passively set up to be endless, but it's in the works.

Thank you Keri very much, I will read the article.

Here's an explanation from an SEOmoz staff member about what that notice means and when you might want to do something and when to not worry:
-
I am very sorry if I am writing were I am not suppose to, I just found it as a topic of too many links on page. I am very new to seo and do not understand 95% of it. The website I have a problem is http://villasdiani.com It is one big mess. I do not know why on the main menu, when I click on villas or boutique hotels shows that they are archives, or why when I try to add Facebook admin on SEO from Yoast it brings me to page not found, we are not ranking on anything and now I tried Seomoz and it shows me too many links on page, which is actually sitemap...I thought that is what the sitemap is about...I am absolutely confused:-(

PS - I just viewed your bio and am very impressed to learn that you are 16 and have been doing SEO since you were 12. WOW. I really am impressed.

Thanks, Charles. I appreciate the time you put into your replying to my question. I hope my responses do not come off as defensive, but since you gave me a list of changes I thought I would fill you in on our reasoning behind the issues you bring up.
I believe the archives and tags on the right sidebar to be necessary and handy for our visitors.
As I mentioned, we are in the process of limiting the number of post excerpts/links showing on the main blog page. Thanks for your tip to limit to 10.
Why would you remove the footer text? It's true that we serve those areas listed and I want that on-page info included.
I hadn't thought of the duplicate content issue when using excerpts- not sure if it applies. And would love to not have to create additional writing tasks. Anyone else have an opinion about that?
We are not interested in using a template for our blog. We prefer to have our site design remain consistent on all pages of the site. We are using a template- that we designed. Perhaps I don't understand your advice on this.
All of the images in the blog have alt tags: EXAMPLE: title="soc_signals_4754681424" src="http://www.fateyes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/soc_signals_47546814243.jpg" alt="The effects of social media on search engine results pages (SERPs) - social signals and Search engine optimization (SEO)"
1080 monitors: We are designing for iPad first and foremost and it's not a responsive theme.My original impulse was to give a catchy title to our blog so I studied a lot of blogs and found that it seemed most appropriate to keep the blog title short and concise. It also seems smart to keep it short to allow for longer post titles.
Thanks again.

Problem with On-page
I have an issue. I have added 5 keywords but when i go to the "on page" tab. They are not there... So i press on "Add keyword" and it takes me to another page where i can see all my keywords. So i go back to the "on page" and no keyword shows up. I wanna have a summary of the weekly crawl for the on page of these keywords and it's not showing up 😞 Anybody knows why?

SEOmoz Not Picking Up Links
I'm finding that SEOmoz often doesn't pick up on many of the links my client's websites are attaining. The links do appear in search engine and often have a high domain authority (often PR links, which I why I follow up to see if they've been picked up). I do tend to see many of the links appear in webmaster tools, so it's a little frustrating that they don't appear, even after months of pages being live. Thoughts?

On Link Analysis tab I my best pages are 301 and 404 pages.
I looked on my redirrect file and found that /* redirects to /v/404.asp.
Moz Pro | | sbetzen
However if you look below at the link analysis the 404 page is getting a 404 error.
The homepage ecowindchimes.com/ is getting a 301 (but I don't know where it is going to).
The third one is also redirected. 1. [No Data] ecowindchimes.com/ ||| 301 ||| 2 ||| 36 2. 2. [No Data] ecowindchimes.com/v/404.asp ||| 404 ||| 2 ||| 34 3. [No Data] 3. ecowindchimes.com/index.html?lang=en-us&target=d2.html ||| 301 ||| 1 ||| 33 So I have 2 questions: 1) should this be fixed? and 2) how? This is a volusion site and I believe the "catchall" redirect was done by them0 -
Is the on page optimization tool not working?
i received a grade f for one of my keywords/page. i corrected some of the points but when i tried to submit the form again, it doesn't check off those corrected items. is there something wrong with the tool right now? also, how does the tool work if i'm targeting 2 different keywords for one page? e.g. digital marketing philippines and digital marketing agency philippines I'm pretty sure one of the keywords will have problems with at least 3 critical and high importance on page factors (broad keyword usage in page title, exact keyword usage in page title, etc.) is there an effect if there's a critical factor left unchecked because using both keywords in the title might look redundant?

Not all pages are being crawled
I am set up on the PRO plan, I was under the impression that it would crawl up to 10,000 pages. My site has just over 200 pages, but whenever I am crawled it only crawls 121 pages. Is this normal? It's hard to know how reliable my data is because a significant amount of pages are missing.

How to rank each page correctly in the search engines
Hello everyone, I am new to SEOmoz and SEO in general. I am trying to wrap my head around everything and one of the issues I am having trouble grasping is how each individual page on our website plays into ranking for certain keywords. I will explain in more detail below: 1.) We are not a blog, we have a pretty static website. 2.) We can add as many pages to our website as needed (for SEO purposes) 3.) Our site is fairly small, about 25 pages on the website. Now with that information above, here are our main questions & concerns: 1.) What is the best way to rank in the search engines for 50 of our best converting keywords with only 25 pages on our website? 2.) We have 2-3 competitors that rank in positions 1-3 for about 30 of our keywords we are trying to rank for. But no matter what you type in, for example, "cars" "buy cars" "buy a car online" "truck prices" etc, the results that the search engines display our their homepages. Not the other pages on their websites that actually rank for each one of those individual keywords. Is this normal? That is something that we would like for our rankings to do if we have any control over it. 3.) Should each page try to rank for a unique individual keyword? For example, when using the SEOmoz On-page Optimization tool, should I try ranking 2 pages for "buy cars online" or just 1 page? Say my homepage has an "A" grade for the keyword, "buy cars online" but so does my second page on my website. Are these pages essentially competing with each other? Or will the search engines pick their favorite page and display the one they like the best? Any help is greatly appreciated and I look forward to getting this cleared up. Thanks

Where in SEOMoz pro can I determine how many .edu and .gov links a competitor's site has?
Like in the SEOBook toolbar where you can click the information button and get the number of links to the domain and specific page for .edu and .gov sites. Thanks, Daniel.
