Welcome to the Q&A Forum

As far as I know, there is no way of preventing those subdirectories from being included in the the .com's campaign except by use of the robots.txt, which you wouldn't want to do since you do need those crawled for their individual campaigns.  It would be nice to be able to "deselect" pages or folders from an existing campaign, wouldn't it.  You could include that in a feature request to the Moz, if you wanted.

I'm getting warnings for too many on page links and rel canonical notices for pages such as: VPN Express - Personal VPN Guide http://vpnexpress.net/%25%25term_title%25%25/android-os/11510 VPN Express -

Why the .net is ranking and the .com is was the first question that went through my mind too. Looking at the link profiles for the two domains the first impression is that the .com domain should rank because it's got loads more links than the .net domain. Virtually all of these links come from the .net variant of the domain. If you look a bit closer you'll see that wireless.com has external links from wireless-alarms.net & resonsesecurityweek.com. (And wireless-alarms.net is redirected to .com so I'm sure google wouldn't count these.) Wireless.net has links from: cheviotsecurity.co.uk & saboteurcrimeprevention.com. So out of the two, the .net looks marginally stronger.

It means that you have 9 further keywords ranking from position 4 - 10. It specifies the top 3 because, as you know, these are the sought after positions and take the majority of the clicks.

Hi, Here's a link to the error I'm getting. Thanks. 7usM1tz.png

Yes it helped! Thank you very much I really appreciate the time and effort you put into responding. I just have a few additional questions. 1. I expected some sort of penalty because a sample of the backlinks I analyzed (which their previous SEO firm built) were of the spammy blog comment variety or 404's (I reckon it's best to just disavow these ones?). Is there a template or something I can use as a guide for emailing webmasters a backlink removal request (With the proper instructions of how to within it). Also thank you for recommending Link Detox. What do you thin k of http://www.removeem.com/self-serve.php as Thomas suggested? It seems to be vetted by Moz and they have an automatic service for contacting webmasters. It must be insane trying to contact 4000+ webmasters. How do you even organize something like that? 2. I'm afraid I was not being clear. My issue is not domain migration after all. I think the issue is just a canonical issue. Basically they were using a very bulky CMS and I used wordpress to redesign their website. I also moved them to a faster dedicated server. The nameserver has not yet been pointed to the new server yet. The problem is some of their old URLs look something like oldpage/old-section1.html and on the new wordpress site everything is neater /more-descriptive-new-page/ So this is just a canonical issue correct? I just have to sort through all their pages and find the corresponding one on the new site? 3. I put up a temporary redirect just to do some quick A/B URL split testing on the entire website. I thought it might be a bad idea but I wanted to get some preliminary results in as visual website optimizer did not do the job for me that I wanted.

Hi David, That's got to be disappointing! There are a few different things that could be going on, either with our crawler or the links themselves, that might be causing them not to be picked up by OSE. Without knowing what the links are, it's difficult to diagnose what the issue might be. Could you please send us an email to help@moz.com with some examples of the links you're seeing that aren't showing up in OSE? We'd love to get this resolved for you.

Follow the Google Guidelines if you want Google to index your site is my suggestion. I took a couple of long phrases from your site, and found them in several other places on the web. The duplicate content isn't helping, in addition to the things mentioned previously.

You can manually crawl up to 3000 URLs at http://pro.moz.com/tools/crawl-test.

Great to hear!

Open Site Explorer (OSE) and Majestic have their own indexes, with different URLS in them. OSE currently has 77 billion URLS in it's index, and Majestic has 438 billion unique URLS in it's Fresh index. There is some overlap, but they are not identical datasets. Neither will have ALL the backlinks going to your site. If you look at Google Webmaster Tools or Google Analytics, you tend to see some additional URLs linking back to you in there. If you can afford to use both OSE and Majestic, then do that, otherwise pick one and try to work with that. Hope that helps, James

mtthompsons Thanks for the comment. I have had a look and this tool looks useful. Thanks.

Try turning personalized search off, using an URL like this: https://www.google.com/search?q=keywords+to+find&gl=us&pws=0 At least for me, what I see there matches what Moz shows, although those are the results shown to a person in god knows what location with personalized search off, they match Mozs'. Hope that helps.

This is the exact answer that you want if you have any issues running into problems once you have isolated them with screaming frog you can easily pick them out and redirect them either through your host or through a plug-in depending upon where you're hosted and how your site is being managed.

Hey Courtney, I just wanted to update here and let you know I've responded to your email. We'll continue through there so we can discuss your campaigns with respect to your privacy. For anyone else, this appears to be a one-off authentication issue. I will update this thread if it turns into anything pertinent to the community at large. Cheers! Joel.

Right now, you can only grade one keyword phrase at a time per report, but you can run multiple reports. So in this case, you would have to run 3 reports and receive 3 different letter grades. If this is a functionality you'd like to see, we do have a Moz Feature Request Forum: https://seomoz.zendesk.com/forums/293194-Moz-Feature-Requests Users can submit new ideas, and the community votes them up. Our product team then uses this forum for new features and determine what to build next. Hope this helps. Best of luck with your SEO.

Hello Tuzel, Thank you again for your help. Plugin could not be deactivated as it left translation and original all in one page. I found out that I could also use this code in the header.php of the website Hope it will work, seems less strong than canonical, maybe better try with this first

Thanks all for your responses.

Hey there, Thanks for reaching out. I took a look at your campaigns and it looks like you've got all your campaigns setup as subfolder campaigns like this: http://www.example.com/product-title The problem is that all the links on your pages go to different subfolders. So there are actually no links to any other pages under that subfolder. I would recommend to look at setting up a subdomain or root domain campaign to catch everything regardless of which subfolder it's held in. I hope that helps. Also make sure to check out the link that Mike posted for you. Cheers, Joel.
