Time out writing responses to Moz Q&A
-
This is driving me crazy and making me wish to destroy everything I can reach with my hands.
I like to write long curated answers to people questions on here. And evidently there's some sort of timeouts in Moz Q&A software.
Because every time I answer to someone I get this fu#@!ng error message...
So I go back, I lost everything and either give up or write one sentence.
-
Hrm... I'll do some digging to see if I can find anything odd/off. And ask some of our other frequent users to see if they're having the same issues.
-
It's a couple of weeks I experience this from different computers. If I write a short answer like this one I have no problem. If I spend some time writing is more likely than not to happen.

Hi Max,
Sorry to hear about frustrating timeouts. Definitely the worst! Forum usability is definitely something we keep an eye on. Right now, there aren't any known bugs surrounding timeouts.
I do suggest deleting your cookies and cache as this could be a cookie fail.
Please do let us know if the problem persists.
Thanks!

This happened to me recently as well. Very frustrating.

That's what I am doing when I remember doing it. But I think someone at moz should look into the error.

If this happens to you often, I'd suggest you either:
- Highlight your entire answer and copy it before you click "Post Response". Even if you get an error, you can just return to the question and paste your response.
- Write your answer somewhere else, and then paste it into the Response box in Moz Q&A. That way you have it somewhere else and can't actually lose it.
This is assuming the error you're receiving is a timeout. If it turns out that it isn't, I'd email [email protected].

Is MOZ any good to analyze an e-commerce site? How come that a cms page can be seen as duplicate content with a category page?
Hi Guys, I've been using Moz for quite a long time now for 2 of my shops. Now I am in the process of launching the second shop and I just don't understand how is it possible that a cms static page (About US) to be seen as a duplicate content with other 96 pages - including product pages and other totally different pages such as delivery information, category pages, returns and so on. Really MOZ?? Is it me or you?? Your help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Moz Keyword Explorer how long does it take to gather metrics
Looking at some low volume keywords, I get lots of "Gathering Metrics". These don't seem to be updating with metrics. How long does this typically take, should I set and come back in a couple of hours, overnight? Should I leave the screen open, or will this stop it working? Justin

Is Moz Bot Broken?
Moz Bot says I have millions of issues with duplicate content. One item says that it has over 50 duplicates! I downloaded the CSV it gave me to look into it. All of my products have many different ways to get them, so I've set up rel=canonicals for the master one. So, I'd assume Mozbot would ignore those. But the interesting thing I've found is that of these 50 duplicates, some of them (on the same CSV I downloaded) are completely different products, with completely different URL's. and completely different titles and completely different meta descriptions and completely different product descriptions. So, 3 questions: Is Moz bot broken? Does it not recognize canonicals? Why is it seeing 3 very different products as exactly the same product? I'm so confused and since I work for a national company, the only way I can give actual examples is through a private message session. I guess I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this issue? Because I'm completely baffled.

How is Moz's DA score so high?
Obviously they make the tool that measures this, but is their own score inflated because of this? I know DA isn't strictly a measure of popularity, but Moz's own score seems a little _too _high compared to some other sites... 92 - Moz.com 90 - Salesforce.com 87 - Airbnb.com 84 - Priceline.com 83 - Squarespace.com Can someone shed some light on how DA is actually measured?

I have been unable to use the export button on any of the Moz pages.
Every time I click the export button on the upper right portion of the page, it says "preparing to export", but either nothing is exported or a blank document is downloaded. I was specifically working with the Fresh Web Explorer but have noticed this on all pages. Is anyone getting this export function to work?

Keyword Grader & OmniExplorer_Bot Question
I found this in several of my clients Robots.txt "User-Agent: OmniExplorer_Bot Disallow: /" Right now I cannot grade any of them that are on a particular platform that has that written in. Would this block the keyword grader? Thanks!

When Moz provides an on-page grade report card, what tells Moz which keyword to grade for?
I just started working with the on-page grader and of couse am particularly interested in fixing my pages with not so stellar grades. Can someone tell me how SEO Moz decides what keyword to grade a page for? I receive a report each week that tells me how many pages I have with A's, B's etc. But what tells Moz to grade a page for a particular keyword? Is it the first keyword listed in the meta description?
