Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks so much, John. I appreciate your prompt and thorough response. I guess I need to check why the redirects are not working the way they are supposed to. However, Google Webmaster does seem to see them because they do not flag duplicate titles etc. I am not sure what you mean with the comment on the active class. Would you mind explaining that? Thanks!

No problem, first time setting up can be tricky. Good luck.

Alright. Having over 100 errors and warnings had me worried. Sounds like its not that big of a deal. I did notice some issues where it looks like my blog page and some other pages are not being indexed. Any insight on this?

Judging by the code and the link examples you shown above seems to be it.

Hi Geoff, It looks like in the time since you posted this question and today, your site authority has grown. As the previous two respondents noted, what you were seeing was the effects of your domain being so new. Not only does it take Google some time to pick up on things, but most tools/data providers that show us metrics around inbound links and authority update their indexes/data sets every month or so (perhaps quicker, but not by much since it's so expensive to crawl the web). Important to keep that in mind when you're looking at your own site(s) or those of competitors. I don't see any links pointing to your site in Open Site Explorer or ahrefs - it's unlikely both tools are "wrong" here. If you know of specific pages/sites that are linking to you, I'd recommend double checking that those pages/sites are actually being indexed by search engines. You can be seeing a link behind a login wall or similar barrier to search crawlers that, for all appearances, is SEO friendly, but because the page isn't being indexed it never counts towards your authority. I'm marking this question as answered since it seems that the issue you were concerned with has been corrected. Best, Mike

www.ahrefs.com you can see history there. Free version is limited only for some quests daily, but paid one is very good.

Hi Cody, Thanks for writing in and sorry for the confusion. It looks like there was a syncing error when we updated the information at the beginning of the month. I have reset the connection to your account and you should be seeing better data for that time period. Please let me know if you are still seeing any issues on your account. -Chiaryn

So glad I could help get this figured out! Sometimes it just takes another set of eyes. -Chiaryn

Hi Adam, I really appreciate your patience with me.  I have done as you have suggested and added the canonical tag to my pages and fixed the links, and told Google which is my preferred url.  I think I have setup the 301 redirect - how will I know if it has worked?  How long will it take? Thanks again for your help. Cheers, Tammy

Hi, The tool you are requesting is SharedCount. Also you may consider using the following tools social media analysis tools Topsy Buzzmetrics Socialmention Radian 6 Twitsprout Truesocial metrics. Also you may like reading this post on tacking your social media strategy. Hope this helps Cheers!

Hi Darcy, I'm going through a process at the moment of a very thorough analysis of every tool I can get my hands on - more from a technical perspective because I was getting sick of the varying results from different tools / utilities. I wrote my own scraper utility to get live results from Google as well. I tested 800 keywords using broad, phrase, exact, etc and the results from Google compared to every tool out there is different. I'm currently writing a document on all of this. Maybe I should post it somewhere, I don't know, but my strong feelings at this point is: check with each provider (of the online tool or downloadable software) whether they use broad match, phrase match, or exact match. SEM Rush displays results for "phrase match" but shows [exact match] search volume for that phrase. You almost need a database to remember what criteria each tool uses to return results. do they allow you to filter results by domain (google.com, google.com.au, etc)? in addition to the above, do they allow you to filter results by only showing results for that country (eg, if you can select "Australia", do they search on google.com.au AND give you the choice to see results for only .com.au domains, or all results that google.com.au would offer up?) How recent is their data? Everything costs money - whether it's in API units from Google, API units from a competing tool, or even time and money spent on writing their own scraping software. Free tools aren't going to update their databases every day. SEOMoz (who I've found to be quite accurate) updates their Keyword Analysis Tool database monthly. A lot can happen in 4 weeks. Getting this information can be tough. You need to email each vendor and get their answer - and then trust their answer. Tough one... but how savvy is the developer of the tool? I've written my own tools and it's damn hard to get accurate data even from Google directly! There's so many variables. Poorly written software returns poor results. In writing my own stuff, different proxies would return different Google results, even different user agents (web browsers) would return different results. You need a thorough understanding of the technicalities behind obtaining data from or about Google. There's a few considerations off the top of my head. As I say I'm still putting together my findings. I'm using this reply as an opportunity to hopefully spark a little discussion on this as I think many people have the same problem. The immediate solution? Write your own software, or use a few tools and average the results. I'm quite the analyst so varying results do my head in. However at the same time, is your goal to get 100% accurate results, or get a good "feel" for the competitive landscape and move on? Sometimes I like to get things perfect, other times my client doesn't have the time to wait, and I'm not paid enough to be that anal!

We did just update OpenSiteExplorer this afternoon, but I believe it is fully rolled out with updated data. We don't have the number of servers that Google or Bing have, and we're not able to crawl as deeply as they do. That said, we do try to crawl the most important links on the web, and provide metrics you are not able to get from the search engines. We update OSE about once a month. We have more information about the index in this afternoon's blog post at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/november-mozscape-index-is-live Hope this helps!

Hi one time i have read an article about this: http://www.wordstream.com/articles/ultimate-guide-to-keyword-competition maybe can help you Ciao Maurizio

Hey there, There is not way to track ROI or revenue through our SEO tools. Sorry about the confusion. Here is a good article about ROI and KWs http://voices.yahoo.com/web-analytics-tracking-seo-keyword-roi-success-10801793.html?cat=15 Thanks for the great question and your patience. Nick

Hey there! Thanks for writing in. I downloaded the CSV from your Travel Pack campaign. It looks like all of the duplicate content pages are in the CSV that I exported. I found them by sorting the the rows in Excel. Here is a good guide on how to get started sorting in Excel: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/sort-data-in-a-range-or-table-HP010073947.aspx Thanks! Nick

Hi Dino, I've been on SeoMoz for about 3 months now. I've found the Link Analysis to miss out on some of the links. And besides it only updates once a month - around this time. I've had better results picking up my backlinks using Google Webmaster. It updates the links more frequently, and I am able to pick up many more backlinks that are not coming up in the Link Analysis report. Thanks! Zakaria
