Hi,
I see but it can be a reason, they are identical. Try to change twitter and property and check. It is possible that SEO MOZ crawler/scaner looks only for "description" ?
-
That's funny coz twitter:description and OG:Description are two different metas, not the same as description
-
Hi,
As I see in the code you have exactly the same descriptions
"A photographic collection of hunting animals. See how these built for the kill creatures rule the jungles. A nature photography extravaganza."
for:
meta name="description"
meta name="twitter:description
meta property='og:description'
and it can be a reason.

My Mozbar SERP overlay stopped working when I updated to Firefox 20.0!
I tried restarting Firefox, rebooting my computer (Mac), uninstalling and reinstalling the Mozbar, still nothing. I use that data a lot, so I'd love to get it back...

Mozbar Chrome Extension
Hello Mozzers! The Moz extension for Google Chrome is a big help while doing link prospecting, competitor research, etc. The two parts that really help me with that is the MozBar button for quick stats and how SERPs have domain data, etc, etc, under each result. The issue, however, is that the SERP control panel is dead smack in my way... Its one of those things thats been bothering me for months but dealt with. Is there a way to permanently keep it closed? Here is an image for reference - http://i.imgur.com/9ruJHHc.png -> "SERP control panel" is whats bothersome. Thanks, James

How accurate is the MozBar "Followed Link Highlighter"
I'm currently doing some research on blogs to guest post on and I want to make sure they are providing DoFollow links out. are the green links displayed from the MozBar simply links that don't contain the HTML element "NOFOLLOW" or is it more in depth tan that? according to this article there are TONS of different ways that people can place a NOFOLLOW link on their site http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/identify-nofollow-juiceless-links-guide.html Thanks

Strange Website Activity
Hello, I have been building websites for about 4 months now and finally had my first real success with a website. I found a niche that I was able to get on the first page with. This site was fine and then boom it dropped to #17 around the time of the recent Google changes. So I just thought it was that, I decided to add it as a campaign on here. This is when I noticed that the pages were not being crawled. So being new at all of this, I researched that. Of course, the main things were is the privacy and robots.txt. It is running on wordpress and I know not to set the blog to private, but I wasn't familiar with how to edit the robots.txt. I found a good plugin that easily allowed me to set the text to allow all bots. It seemed to be set to the normal wordpress settings before, and I never had a problem with any of my websites not being crawled. Anyway, once I just set it to allow all bots on ALL of my website, the pages started being crawled again. My traffic went back up and I was on the first page all day yesterday. Today, so far big drop off. So, I deleted the campaign and set up a new one. Sure enough no pages crawled yet. I made some security changes using Bulletproof Security and another plugin to see if that effects it. Nothing yet. I am just really confused as to what is going on, so if any of you have any ideas that would be great. It is a simple site, and I made some changes like theme when I was trying to figure out why the pages weren't being crawled. So it is not the most beautiful design right now. Also, I try my best to put up well-written useful content, so I don't think that is the issue for the rankings drops. I don't have many if any actual backlinks yet because of the newness of my site, could be the reason for it acting strange BUT none of that explains the pages not being crawled at the same time my site drops????? Sorry so long but had to explain it all! Thanks in advance to anyone who has anything to say about this situation! Edit: I should clarify, I put the the security plugins on yesterday while I was on the first page and have deleted them to see if that allows the pages to be crawled. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

Latest OSE Update - Strange Numbers and Links
Hey everyone. I just checked our website in OSE with the latest update and noticed some strange numbers. The number of linking domains skyrocketed from 300 to 785 which definitely caught me off guard. Like all good SEOers I work hard to get links, but in a typical month I usually get between 40 and 50. To suddenly jump up by over 300 seems odd. Digging deeper, I noticed that some of the incoming link domains could be considered less than trustworthy (pages filled with links), while others I couldn't find at all on the page in question. I also never ever asked for any of these links, nor did anyone on my team. Should I be worried? I've heard of websites who purposely gain bad links to their competitors in order to penalize them. Is there an easy way to find out if this is going on? Could this possibly be a problem with OSE and just reporting non-existant links? Thanks for your feedback! Andrew BTW, the website in question is www.gooverseas.com
