Creating a campaign for a folder is not possible
-
Hi There!
I just signed up for a free pro account to see whether it is something for us as a company
I tried to set up two campaigns.With the first for our root domain (koopgoedkoop.nl) it all went perfect. I am now trying to set up a campaign for our BBQ page (http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues.html)Â but I can't? Is it because our URL ends with .html?
Here's a screenshot: http://bit.ly/x2zdCd Thanks for your help in advance!

Hey Do,
You are trying to target one page and not one sub-folder, this is causing the error which Roger "detected".

I feel really, really stupid but I have no idea what you mean with sub-folder and one page (sorry, rather new to SEO AND blonde ;-)). The page I am linking to is our BBQ category page. Is that not possible?

It can happen to anyone.So first of all, with question like this you can always go to the help team, they will be more than happy to help you out and can help you step-by-step to resolve issues.
Secondary, I am happy you came to the community, because we are here to help:
I would advice you to target the /garden/ sub-folder or the http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues/
This way you will provide Roger a sub-folder and not a single page

So instead of adding the url: http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues.html try using http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues/
It should do the job.

Will using "http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues/" do the job, even when the link doesn't work? (when you go to that link, you are redirected to the home). Or should our IT department first fix that the links work without the .html?
(Thank you for your patience :))

Hmm... I will tell you a less good news... There you are creating duplicate content, because it is not a redirect and you don't have a canonical neither.
Regarding the original question... I would address the helpteam regarding this one, because they can tell you in details if Roger-bot will crawl your data (as you have requested) or not. you can contact them at help@seomoz.org

Alright, will do. Thank you for your time!!

(Check for those duplicates too, it can cause you some trouble if not eliminated)
