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.

How to increase Page Authority
Hi All, I have had some free time lately and have wanted to try and figure out how Moz calculates page authority and what I can do to increase page authority. For instance, I have a real estate site (As some of you may know already) and of course there are places like Zillow.com who have amazing Domain Authority and even page authority for a certain address. So this is just some random address to where most of the local sites I compete with have a PA of 1. Is there a way to get that PA up? Would it be sharing it on Social Media, or writing a blog post about it (which I of course would not want do do with every listing (hundreds) but was curious how Zillow could have such a high page rank on a property that maybe came up a day or two ago. Examples: zillow: http://goo.gl/99A57C my site: http://goo.gl/K6xmW6 Thanks for any guidance!

On-page SEO in Shopify
Can I successfully perform on-page SEO in Shopify much like I would in a WordPress website? Reasons why I am asking: No plugin I know of like SEO-All-in-one, yoast or any plugin I know of.... URL is www.yourwebsite.shopify.com - Will my on-page efforts be fruitless with this kind of URL. Will the MOZ 'on-page grader' work properly with pages at www.yourwebsite.shopify.com or www.yourwebsite.com? Any Advice, pitfalls of performing on-page and off-page SEO in Shopify? Can you recommend an SEO plugin/APP for Shopify? Will I need a developer/coder to perform SEO in Shopify - Title and Descriptions? Best tool to find long-tail keywords? Thanks. JOE

Deleting old obsolete pages from the Page Grades section?
Last year we did a total site overhaul, moving from an old ASP site setup to a new WordPress set up. I notice that there are still a handful of old ASP pages being graded still - and turning up as F of course. I tried marking them and deleting them, but hitting delete makes the check box clear, but does not remove the page. How do I get them totally out of grading circulation? Also, some of the links are showing with session info and extra unnecessary characters - how can I clean those links up?

URL inaccessible for On Page Grader
I am trying to use the on page grader however it is not working with my website. The URL is as follows: https://capbeast.com. I have been trying to read in older posts to see if https is now supported or not but have not found anything. I know there is no robots.txt issue as I am able to run the crawl test on our website fine. Is the issue on my end in regards to configuration or is due to DDos attacks? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

On-Page Grader is not counting H2 and H3 Keywords
I used on-page grader in one of my webpages and it showed the limit of 15 keywords used. The problem is that it counted only when the keyword appears in the Title, URL, Meta Description, H1, Body and IMG ALT. If you take into account the H2 and H3 tags, the count will go to 22. Is there a problem with the On-Page Grader Tool or it's not a problem to go above 15 keywords if they are in H2 and H3? Here's the link for the page: http://www.tororadar.com.br/acoes/bbse3-bb-seguridade/cotacoes-bovespa Keyword: BBSE3 Thanks in advance.

Find all the back links to all the posts/pages within the blog subdirectory only.
Hi, I am new to Moz. I using the open site explorer to find backlinks for a website's blog. The website itself is huge. I want to find all the backlinks to all the posts/pages within the blog subdirectory only. Not the regular website. I ran a few reports, but it is giving me links to that page, not all the sub pages.Fi

Inconsistent On-Page Grader results
Hello everyone! I am fairly new to the MOZ tools but I'm finding some inconsistencies in the On-Page grader.. I have tested several pages (some of which I know have doos and bad SEO) and the results I keep getting are very volatile. For example, I have looked at testing http://www.sportingwebdesign.com for "Sports Website Design" - one minute it gave me a grade F, then then 2 minutes after I refresh the page and it gave me a grade A.. I am very confused and a bit worried that this tool may be a bit volatile... Anyone have any thoughts?

Is it no longer possible to export the On-Page grader reports?
Hi Everyone, I was just trying to export the On Page Grader report for my clients website, and found that there is no longer that option. Is this a permanent change with the new branding? Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks very much.
