Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi David! Each week you will receive reports for your campaigns summarizing your Keyword Rankings, On-Page Grades, and Crawl Diagnostics. These are great ways to track a campaign's progress week by week. I would also recommend watching the Insights tab of your campaign's dashboard to see where Moz is suggesting to focus your efforts. You can read more about that here: https://moz.com/help/guides/getting-started/action-dashboard Additionally, creating Custom Reports for a campaign is a good option to track exactly what kind of information you need, and send it directly to your client. More information on those can be found here: https://moz.com/help/guides/search-overview/custom-reports I hope this is helpful Thank you! Kevin Help Team

Hey Cindy! This is Michael on the Moz Help Team! You can absolutely set up a second idential campaign with different competitors for prupose of tracking 6. This is actually the recommend workaround for our campaign limitation of tracking 3 competitors. Keep in mind that the 2 campaigns will most likely not update at the same exact time, but if you remember the day of the week that you setup the origianl campaign, you'll want setup the second campaign on the same day to keep their data gathering in sync. I hope this helps! If you need more details guidance on moving forward with this option in your account, feel free to reach out to us at help@moz.com. Our Q&A forum is a great place to get some quality answers to your queries, but help tickets can help ensure the privacy of your account details. Cheers!

After looking at the source code for your homepage, here are the anomalies I've found: A dozen or so links like https://static1.squarespace.com/static/ are in your header. I assume these are due to having built your site through them, but these will still count. The "Loving @ Your Best etc." image at the top is a link to the homepage, but so is "Home". That's a bit redundant. Each of your navigational items (couples therapy, counseling, etc) is an on-page link which is probably an unnecessary design choice. The biggest issue s that you have both your desktop and mobile links on this one source page. That's a big no-no; instead, you should have the page that's fetched determined by whether a user is on mobile or not, and then have a separate page for both. This is likely the biggest source of your headache here. I hope that helps, Travis.

I presume everyone here has seen the news about UK Moz local now available but just letting you know here just in case not since at least 3 of you have expressed interest on this thread: https://moz.com/local/overview All Best Dan

Hi there! This looks like a great approach. If you have any questions or issues with the tools along the way, please send us a message at help@moz.com and we'll take a look Thank you! Kevin Help Team

I'm so sorry that you ran into this issue, Thomas! We were making a quick change to our campaign settings and it caused a short outage in the campaign set-up widget for the search engines. Everything should be up and running smoothly again, so please give your campaign another try and let me know if you need any further assistance with your account.

I'm afraid you would have to create a new campaign (you can just archive that wrong one) this is because Moz crawls that URL so if you were to change the URL the previous crawl would be wrong. it would get very confusing have more than one website in a report so its easier to just create a new report. Hope that helps.

Good Morning Ian Oh i see ! in that case then yes Screaming Frog would be a good way of seeing what pages have been optimised for what target keywords. Quake probably too although i havnt used that myself for a long while. Also for a quick browser based view of what a page is optimised for is SEOXRay if its still going. As well as Jasons advice to look at OpenExplorer backlink anchor text profiles, although for new sites are unlikely have developed much of a backlink profile and OE wont have indexed all backlinks/pages so i would still concentrate on looking at the on-page optimisation. All Best Dan

That may be the case - the reports should all be sent from noreply@moz.com but they should be coming through now.

I always see it as your online 'popularity score', based on various items such as off page (blogger outreach, online partners and PR) and on page SEO (engagement, behavioural, tech etc.)

To expand upon Mike's answer, you should be able to connect additional Google Analytics accounts within your campaign settings, like so: http://www.screencast.com/t/bQrQbLpN

It has been a lot more difficult getting this data since Google started masking the keywords people type into their searches from webmasters.  I remember having access to really useful data on this but now it is minimal.

If you have the Medium price plan or above the reports are branded. As far as i am aware its branded not white label, you can always export to an excel sheet and create your own report or download the branded report and send it from your own email address. Hope that helps.

Hi  lissola Great question and I am afraid our current platform does not have that capability. It is something we will consider if we decide to update or change our platform.

Hi Chris There are multiple ways of doing this, but I will give you a quick evaluation process and pass along some resources as well. I would first pull backlink reports from the following sources: Google Search Console Majestic Ahrefs OSE The reason for multiple sources - different tools provide different sets of data. What you get with Search Console you might not get with Majestic which won't be the same as OSE and so on. By pulling multiple sets, you see different angles. I would then assess the source of the links in the following ways: Does this link help my website? Is this link relevant to my website? Would I trust this site (that's linking to me) if I landed on it? Is the website or content in which I am being linked from topically relevant to my website? If you check metrics - does anything about the metrics (domain authority, page authority,Majestic, SEMRush traffic/ranking data, etc) make me feel uneasy? Are the links from directory templates? (example) Inspect URLs with blatant spam words Free Porn XXX Submit Directory Paid Links URL Sex etc. Check for multiple domains and URLs on the same IPs This can usually show link farms or spam What you are essentially doing is a backlink audit at this point - defining which links are valuable and relevant, and which links are toxic or spammy, categorizing them for link removal or disavow. You can also look into tools that help score your backlink profile like LinkRisk. You can categorize what you find into a Google Sheet or Excel with tabs as easy as "Good", "Bad", "Remove", and "Disavow". Categorize each tab by: Source of link Anchor Text Type of link IP address Contact information of source webmaster (if you want to update good links or remove bad links) Dates of outreach to webmaster (I usually go 3-4 times) I would make sure you check out the resources in this answer as they provide a lot of great tips and resources to help you. It's a lot of research and common sense, but once you get the hang of it, it's not bad at all - you will learn a lot. There's no right or wrong way of doing it, just stay focused and you will get your own system fleshed out before you know it. Hope this helps a bit! Good luck!

thanks a lot.

Hi, To stop moz crawler you have to mention below text in robots.txt for dev.domain.com User-Agent: rogerbot Disallow: / Hope this helps. Thanks

You could block the site for all bots except rogerbot ( Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; rogerBot/1.0; http://www.seomoz.org/dp/rogerbot). Alternative would be to use a local crawler like Screaming Frog (and modify the spider settings so that it ignores the robots.txt) rgds, Dirk

I have competitors under each campaign, too.  But it is limited to three competitors in each campaign, and I have a lot more than four websites I want to be able to compare.  I suppose one way to get at this would be to check ranks manually every day for a week or two to get a sense of whether there is intra-week variation.  I don't think I'll put forth that effort, though.  Switching the one campaign to Monday would be way easier.  Still, any other opinions or resources are welcome!

Hi there I personally like option 2 as I can keep all of my information in one place and label that information accordingly. There's really no wrong or right way to do it, that's upto you! Whatever works best and helps you make the best decisions is the route I would take. If you have multiple competitors in different seasons, maybe a couple different campaigns would be good to set up for you. But as you said same competitors, I can't see a reason to have your information strewn about multiple campaigns. I can see that getting confusing, but I am basing that off of how my mind works. Would be interesting for you to keep tabs on what you choose to do and turn it into a YouMoz post showcasing your findings - I can see this helping a lot of people! Hope this helps a bit! Good luck!
