I get 401 Your authentication failed, my application has worked for 2 years.
-
I have an old link request application which i have restarted. I have regenerated the api key, however i get 401 Your authentication failed on request.
The test signature works and returns my account no.
Here is my request:
I have replaced my memberID and signature with dummy data to protect my credentials. Is my request string correct?
Also where can i get the expiry parameter?

We had this issue when we moved from staging to production. Worked fine on staging, but not on production.
It ended up the clock on one of our production servers was 6 minutes behind. This caused the expiration to error out. Immediately we increased the expiration, and ultimately set the proper time on the server.
This resolved all issues relating to the following error:
401 Error - Your authentication has expired. Re-send your authentication and try again. For more information on signed authentication, see: http://apiwiki.moz.com/signed-authentication

I have solved this issue

PA Score of 30+ to get Google Features
I was told that my pages would not be awarded a Google Feature until the Page Authority reaches 30. I had Features previously, but no longer. The PA for the URL is currently 22 https://heritageprintingcharlotte.com/products/meter-boards.php I have edited the content, built links and added schema markup to this particular page (and others) I'm looking for thoughts on the 30+ and how to improve PA.

Anyone using Yahoo Small Business? Not sure if SEOmoz works with YahooSB
I am not sure if SEOmoz is compatible with Yahoo Small Business. The crawl states that the title page is too long for over a hundred titles, but they are not. SEOmoz is taking the title page and the parent or catagory page and grouping together. Please only respond if you work SEO for Yahoo Small Business accounts. Would be glad to take discussion thread off line or show the SEOmoz report.

Is there a way to get the domain authority of a subdomain?
For example, www.storage-mart.com and us.storage-mart.com both show the same DA in OSE. I believe it's the DA of the root domain. How can I compare the DA of the 'www' and 'us' subdomains?

I have a Rel Canonical "notice" in my Crawl Diagnostics report. I'm presuming that means that the spider has detected a rel canonical tag and it is working as opposed to warning about an issue, is this correct?
I know this seems like a really dumb question but the site I'm working on is a BigCommerce one and I've been concerned about canonicalisation issues prior to receiving this report (I'm a SEOmoz pro newbie also!) and I just want to be clear I am reading this notice correctly. I presume this means that the site crawl has detected the rel canonical tag on these pages and it is working correctly. Is this correct?? Any input is much appreciated. Thanks

How do data feeds work in product selection
Hi – I don't know if this is an SEO matter or not, but I have data feeds to Google, Bing and thefind.com for all of my products. I have no idea if these feeds help. My guess is that they do not generate much business. For example if I type in "Brass Bookends" our products usually don't show up until the late pages. Using this as an example does anyone know how these sites select the order in which they display products? Another way to phrase this is what makes thefind.com show a competitor's brass bookends several pages before ours? FYI we have been doing these data feeds for a year on a consistent basis so being new shouldn't be a factor. Any insights will be most appreciated. Thanks. Don. www.uniquegiftsanddecor.com
