Changing the Timeframe of Historical Crawl Data
-
Hello,
Just read a great post about the implications of duplicate content for sites after the most recent Panda update:
In the post is an image or crawl data history that shows months, not days or weeks, worth of trending data as it relates to duplicate content.
So my question is this:
How do I change my view/date range on my own campaigns so that I can view the trailing months of data rather than only what seems to be the past 4 weeks or so? This would really help me identify the impact of some on page changes we've recently made for a client.
Many Thanks,
Jared

Sorry for the very slow response. Your data is still there (nothing lost), and is displayed historically in the graphs, but the detailed data is only shown for the latest week or day. We have 2 projects on our roadmap that will make this better in the platform. The first is monthly timeframes, so you can see changes in larger chunks over months instead of weeks. The other, is the ability to look at the detail data for past weeks (and months when that is in place). I don't have a timeframe on historical yet, but we should have more clarity around our plans for that feature in January.

I have a campaign that has been configured for a month (trial) which we upgraded into a paid package... can only see the last week... has historic data been lost?

Hi Jared,
It looks like this is cleared up, but wanted to follow up.
Pete's correct in that we only collect data from the start of a campaign, but will collect and display it for months following. In the future, we will be looking to add finer control so that long histories can be better displayed and managed.
Please let me know if there are other things we can do with this feature to make it better for you!
Thanks,
Adam

No worries - I know we're looking to add to the history functionality, but I'm not sure if you can control the date-range yet. I pinged the product team, so they'll chime in if they can tell you something I can't.

You know, looking at my other campaigns I'd imagine you're right on. Sorry, I didn't even think of that before I asked the question. In fact, maybe it was wishful thinking on my part that I had more data for this particular client.
Thanks for the quick response.

I think we only collect data from when the campaigns are first created, so it might vary depending on the account age, but I'll check that with the product team and get back to you. That graph was just the default for me.

Rogerbot did not crawl my site ! What might be the problem?
When I saw the new crawl for my site I wondered why there are no errors, no warning and 0 notices anymore. Then I saw that only 1 page was crawled. There are no Error Messages or webmasters Tools also did not report anything about crawling problems. What might be the problem? thanks for any tips!

Why have I stopped receiving emails about crawl reports and rankings reports?
I used to receive emails weekly telling me a new crawl had completed and the reports were ready and also another email saying the new rankings and on page reports were ready to view - I am not getting these anymore. Does this mean these are still happening but I need to find them within the package or has something changed? Thanks

Third crawl of my sites back to 250 pages
Hi all, I've been waiting some days for the third crawl of my sites, but SEOMOZ only crawled 277 pages. The next phrase appeared on my crawl report: Pages Crawled: 277 | Limit: 250 My last 2 crawls were of about 10K limit. Any idea? Kind regards, Simon.

Why is the SEOmoz crawler crawling the old version of our website?
Hello, I'm a new SEOmoz member. On Dec. 2nd, after completely redesigning our website, we migrated to a new hosting company by switching our DNS to the new server. The vast majority of the URLs have changed and we configured redirects of the old URLs to the new ones. Although, this task is not completed yet. After the migration, I created an account on SEOmoz to be able to track our progress and find the issues to fix to optimize our SEO. For some reason, in the SEOmoz reports it is the old URLs that show up. Unless the crawler does not actually crawl the pages and only uses the indexed pages to generate its report, I don't understand how could this possible. Anyone has a clue? When will the new URLs be indexed by SEOmoz and the major search engines? Thanks for your help!
