Page title not being read
-
Hi all I have been testing my site with the Moz on page grader recently and every page seems to come up with the same issues. The keyword doesn't seem to be in the title tag or the title tag isn't there.
Could anyone tell me why this is?
This is an example of a page it is happening on https://www.sbat.com/tips/todays-free-horse-racing-tips
I used several versions of the Keyword including
free horse
Racing tips
Horse racing tips
and it seemed none of these were picked up.

Hmm, that is weird that they are not showing up. I would try submitting the URL into Google's URL submitter: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/submit-url
Hopefully by doing this, Google (and Moz) will index the correct title tags so when you use the Moz Page Grader it pulls the most accurate information.
Hope this helps!

Thank you for providing that additional information and I apologize for the delay.
I had a chance to look into this further and it looks like it is recognizing that you have these keywords in the Title, it's just making some additional suggestions around the placement of the keywords.
For example, when I ran a search in the On-Page grader for the URL https://www.sbat.com/tips/todays-free-horse-racing-tips and the keyword of "racing tips", the only thing it's returning a suggestion on is the placement of the keyword in the Title tag to be at the beginning. I also ran this same search in the Page Optimization tool within your campaign and the same suggestion came back there as well. It is recognizing that that keyword exists in the Page Title, however: http://screencast.com/t/04pn1vTDPUi and http://screencast.com/t/RQQDuo9CqF
I hope this helps! Please let me know if there's anything else I'm able to assist with.

This page should be crawled daily as it is updated daily. The title tags have been in the code for 2/3 months.
Thanks for looking though

Hi there - Kristina from Moz's Help Team here. It'd be helpful to know what keyword you were using to check your page with on the On-Page Grader in order to troubleshoot this for you. Can you update this post with that Keyword and I'll be happy to take a further look for you!
Thank you,

How long ago did you add that title? That page was cached by Google today, and the title shows up in search results. If you added it recently maybe MOZ hasn't picked up the change yet.

Why is Moz Crawling More Pages Than My Site Actually Has?
Hi I have a site that only has 5k pages but Moz has crawled 50K pages on the site when I initiated the site crawl. I don't exactly know why Moz is reporting me back so many pages but I was wondering why this is and if any of you out in the Moz community know anything about this. Thanks

MozBot Finding Duplicate Pages That Aren't Duplicate
I've been reviewing the technical audits for my campaign in Moz, and noticed I had a number of duplicate content issues that I'm not really sure how to address. When I click on the links of what the duplicates are, they are all different links that have different content/images. Based on what I was seeing other's wrote in the forum, this could be because the code base is really the same between these pages, and many of these were using query parameters (I'm assuming that is why the code is almost exactly the same across these pages), so example: website.com/tags/KEYWORD1?type=KEYWORD2 is a duplicate of website.com/tags/KEYWORD3?type=KEYWORD4 I was reading that I can use that URL Parameters area in google search console, but my search console says that the googlebot isn't experiencing issues, so I wasn't sure if that was the right move. I can't do the canonicals because these pages all have different content on them, and I know duplicate content is a big SEO issue, so I really wasn't sure what my next steps should be. Thanks for the help!

Crawl Diagnostics: How many pages (deep) will it crawl for dup content
Does anyone know how deep the crawl diagnostics will crawl when searching for dup content? Will it crawl the entire site, or will it only crawl "x" amount of pages? Thanks!

Moz's on-page grader
Hello, I am having an issue with Moz's on-page grader. Grading the page, http://www.babyklar.dk/tigerspring/26-ugers-springet.html for the keyword 'Tigerspring 26 uger' I am receiving the error message: 'Exact keyword is used in page title' - tagging it as a highly important but easy fix. But I only have the words "Tigerspring 26 uger" in the title, so how can this not grade as Exact keyword? Is there somthing wrong with the system? Or is it me? Thanks very much. Best regards

I am doing the On-page SEO for a website that's never had any SEO done before. I will start with the Pages. Is it necessary to do SEO/Keywords for older Posts?
Using the On-Page Grader to perform SEO on pages of WordPress website. This website never had any SEO done before. Should I go back and perform the same work on the Post Pages?
