Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi there! We'd be happy to send you a Roger keychain. Can you send us an email with your address to community@moz.com? Thanks!

Most users express that they really don't like these automated replies. Do think about whether it might turn people away rather than welcome them.

I advise you that I won't really be able to offer you a definitive answer. More, I put this as discussion so to entice people in offering their ideas and so trying to help you and the community. Sincerely, I don't know if exists a "definitive" tool doing what you're asking. Did you try Rmoov? Or the SEOGadget Link Cleanup & Contact tool? Or the same LinkDetox, which has a good contact retrieval tool inside its links analysis one? Another good tool is Linkrisk.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone is able to respond to this one please? Or not many using nanoRep out there Thanks in advance!

Thanks, it definitely seems that results vary greatly by keyword. I've noticed sometimes BuzzFeed is great and Yahoo Answers has junk...but in your case the results were the opposite. Thanks again for the feedback.

You can actually accomplish exactly this with a special feature of Pingdom's Uptime Tracker, Stuart. When you set up an Uptime Check for your form page, you can designate the check as a Transaction Monitor. You then use the excellent little editor wizard to create a multi-step process that will automatically fill in the fields of your form with your designated text, and then trigger the submission of the form. (Hint: use a unique email address or content submission to make downstream filtering of the submitted form and email notification easier). You can do this kind of tracking for 1 URL/form with the free account, or you could monitor several forms with the paid accounts (about $120 for up to 10 URLs). Downside is, the slowest you can set up the monitor is for once every hour, so you'll be getting a lot of emails You'll want to set up some automated email management to handle this. The upside is, you can be immediately notified by Pingdom alerts (email, SMS) if the web form is failing for any reason. You'll need to set up your own monitoring of the downstream email delivery process though to catch issues like spam blocking. (Though surely you've got a whitelist entry in place on the spam filter to ensure those form submissions get through?) In addition, if you wish, you can also set up a check that monitors an IMAP email server as well to know within a minute whether your Exchange server ins't responding correctly. Lastly, if you're using Google Analytics event tracking on that form submission, you'll need to apply an IP address filter for Pingdom's IP addresses to the Analytics profile to keep the form testing from totally screwing with your Events data. Does that sound like what you're looking for? Paul P.S. Have never tried this with a captcha-protected form - no idea how you'd handle that.

It all depends on how and why the 404's are there and if they are linked to. I have worked with a client who killed about 35,000 pages over the course of about a month (to get rid of duplication) and it only had positive effects. -Andy

Michael, Can you provide some information on the "intermediate page"? Can the intermediate page be within the same domain or should it be a different domain altogether? Regards, Carlos

Great news, Andrea! Thanks for the update.

Hi I have found that there isn't one community management tool that does ever thin that I want it  to do. If I had to choose my favourite I would probably say Hootsuite as it is the one that I find ticks the most boxes. If you have the pro version there is some very nice features that allow you to creat teams and assign posts to different team members. The scheduling and link shortening features are nice as well. You can also save searches and do some other nice things with it. But I also use a range of other community management tools as well. I would also check. Out Conversocial, Bitly, Tweetreach and Buffer too. I did a post about these tools a while ago. You will find links to each of them here http://www.conorbarron.com/?p=234 I hope that this helps. If you have any more questions please let me know.

Hi Guys Thanks for the great advice here. I see that the last reply was in 2011. I am wondering is there any new plug-ins that people would recommend? Thanks

Hi Oleg, Thanks for the informative reply. Yes, if we can do a 301 redirect, we will - but what if we cannot? Do I need to properly optimize for recent updates the old category URLs since they will be crawled? Do I have to worry about duplicate content between old and new? What is the best approach if a 302 is all that we have?

I have always used Bing's and see the benefit. I will give Google Webmaster Tools another shot. I generally regard the Moz community and participants as more of an authority regarding questions on related topics... thanks "Mashed Up Website Development"

Hi Amy, Not sure if this is a publicly revealed info. Here is a relevant discussion on the subject with possible alternative metrics. Hope this helps

Hi Bruce Thank you for your answer. What do you think of using Amazon SES instead of mandrill as it's cheaper overall? We are planning to use Amazon SES for all outgoing emails, Sendy app (sendy dot co) for Newsletter sending and Zendesk for sending support emails. Thoughts?

Hi Chanan, thanks for your question! Do you mean inbound or outbound email? That is, are you looking for recommendations for SAAS that will scrub your email lists for marketing campaigns?And if so, how do you currently send email to your lists? Or did Oren answer your question? Please clarify, thanks! Christy

I am glad to hear that went so well. Did you use the attorney I suggested his links right here http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=jr2gdPY-88w watch video then just kidding ha ha sincerely, Thomas

I'm currently seeing EXTREME failures, even on branded terms. It optimizes for CTR rather than Conversion Rate. Or at least that's what I've seen. I don't understand the rational behind it. I would suggest testing it on a lesser converting campaign but one still with more than 15 conversions/mo. I agree that lower-volume terms & conversion optimizer don't work well together. I'd suggest instead coming up with a bid management strategy to execute for some of the mid volume keywords and managing them on a more individual level. When you get the account strategists, on a completely unrelated topic, you should ask for a list of betas that your account qualifies for! I'm sure you already do that, but they aren't much good at anything else.

We try to keep it as basic as possible by using Bufferapp. Using tools with too many functions hurt productivity (in my case) for teams, especially if it's about social media.
