Confused by Moz page grading tool
-
Can anyone shed any light on why moz ranks this page an F: http://www.traditional-cleaning.co.uk/cleaning-in-tynemouth.htm for 'cleaners in tynemouth' and 'cleaning in tynemouth'
Many thanks!

I actually show both terms graded as a C for that page. If you run the page grader again (http://pro.moz.com/tools/on-page-keyword-optimization/new) it actually lists out exactly what items it looks for and doesn't find and those are the reasons why the grade would be lower. If there is a green check mark to the left of the item then that means it was able to find this on your page, if the green check is missing then that is something you should focus on.

Should you do on-page optimization for a page with rel=canonical tag?
If you ad a rel=canonical tag to a page, should you still optimize that page? I'm talking meta description, page title, etc.

Reducing multi-page website to one page & SEO ramifications?
Hello there! I just want to check in before I do this. I am reducing a multi-page website to one page (temporarily, but for at least 4-6 months). I will be 301 redirecting all old pages to the one, new home page. The new home page has a lot more content, long and short keyword phrases. Aside from losing the benefit of internal links, will reducing the number of website pages hurt a ranking? Does having associated keywords on other website pages provide benefit to another (in this case Home) page? Thanks so much for your invaluable advice!

Local Service Pages
We've all been here before if you do local. What type of content should go on a local service page when dealing with multiple service locations? You could: Describe Services List Local News Articles List staff in that location (although I would prefer in the staff page for that city) Testimonials from that location or service But what happens when you are describing something that needs no explanation. Or a medical procedure that requires no localization and altering the wording can actually cause legal problems if misstated. Matt Cuts recommends a few sentences to a paragraph to describe a service, but my experience hasn't found this to hold up locally. Any ideas or suggestions about how this could be remedied?

On Page Report Card F Grade Critical Factors
The website and page in question is http://www.upstrap-pro.com/ I sell non-slip camera straps and FYI for key word(s) camera strap(s) we were for a number of years on page 1 or 2. Google sold our registered trade-name _UP_strap® all over the web including Amazon. And of course we were hijacked for the keyword. Be that as it may According to SEOMOZ there are many errors on our homepage. I am having the host look at a number of SEOMOZ's report findings. Two critical findings that are making me nuts because I do not have the tech chops to understand why are: 1) Accessible to Engines <dl> <dt>Explanation</dt> <dd>Pages that can't be crawled or indexed have no opportunity to rank in the results. Before tweaking keyword targeting or leveraging other optimization techniques, it's essential to make sure this page is accessible.</dd> </dl> 2) Appropriate Use of Rel Canonical <dl> <dt>Explanation</dt> <dd>If the canonical tag is pointing to a different URL, engines will not count this page as the reference resource and thus, it won't have an opportunity to rank. Make sure you're targeting the right page (if this isn't it, you can reset the target above) and then change the canonical tag to reference that URL</dd> <dd>So here is the code:</dd> <dd>```

Different page for each product colour?
Hi Guys, I've just read an ecommerce article that suggests it's a good idea to have a different page for each colour that the product comes in. However surely this will mean duplicate content? What are your thoughts? Have you put this tactic into motion and how did it go? Thanks, Dan
