Is SEOMoz better than Traffic Travis ?
-
I've been trying both programs for the free trial and I'm not sure which one is exactly better.
they seem to me that both give a similar asepct of research, However SEOMOZ seems to be updating more frequntly. On the seconnd hand, traffic travis is way more cheaper only $97 one time fee as apposed to SEOMoz $100 per month
Could someone convince me SEOMOZ is the better tool?

Its a travesty to compare moz with small software like Travis .
Moz has
- Backlink checker with world known metrics PA(Page Authority) ,DA (Domain authority).
- Web based power which is highly greater than the software one.
- Rank checker and so many tools that Travis cannot even imagine.
Now let's see what traffic Travis can work for
- one-time payment and few number of tools.
- Way way cheaper then monthly subscription and not even $ 97 as you said but it's available for around $ 37 on some coupon sites like http://www.discountmycart.com/
so it is quite funny to compare both!

Thanks for the reply. I would have to agree that the caliber of the data from SEOmoz seems to be much more credible to other platforms, such as Traffic Travis. Really the only point I'm caught up on is the Keyword Difficulty rating as its the only major point of discrepancy. For the time being I will leave my trust with SEOmoz, but it would be interesting to know why the two tools are so disparet when it comes to rating keyword difficulty.
Agreed on all points regarding the quality of both SEOmoz tools and its awesome community. Thanks again for taking time to respond.

I can't speak much about the qualities of Traffic Travis, in part because I know of no serious SEO that uses it. This isn't a judgement of the software, but has more to do with experience level. SEOmoz is geared for intermediate and advanced SEOs (and beginners who are willing to learn - all the resources are here) Whereas as Traffic Travis seems more aimed at the beginner SEO or those not able to invest as much time and/or resources into the process. (Just guessing here)
The last thing I want to do is "sell" SEOmoz or disparage a competitor, but there are a lot of things that SEOmoz offers that I don't think can be matched by a one-time desktop software purchase. These include:
- SEOmoz Metrics - Gold Standard here. Moz metrics are used (and resold) by more companies than any other SEO metrics on the market. And metrics like Domain Authority are correlated with rankings closer to anything else. An SEOmoz membership gives you full access to Open Site Explorer and complete backlink analysis - the same data that other companies buy direct from SEOmoz.
- Weekly crawls and reporting by rogerbot - the SEOmoz crawler. This is one of the most complete and easy to use SEO site audits around.
- Learning resources. This includes monthly webinars, full access to the PRO Q&A and more.
- Special resources like full access to the PRO only Directory List
- A full suite of SEO tools, including complete access to the MozBar.
- And a kick-ass community.
Over 50% of SEOmoz members stay 18 months or longer, and many have stayed for years.
At the end of the day, I always encourage folks to try the Free Trial (now it sounds like I'm selling, damnit). But it's a no-risk affair and you'll probably learn more in one week than you have in the past few months.

good morning! My team uses both seomoz and Traffic Travis. We are having a similar issue of trying to figure out which one is best for what task. The main issue seems to be consistency. When we run the same keyword through traffic travis and seomoz., TT says the keyword is easy and seomoz tells us its difficult. This leaves us scratching our heads a bit. Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and good luck.

Traffic Travis?!.... More like Traffic Travesty!
Joking aside, nothing in my opinion comes close to what SEOMoz offer; the tools, linkscape/open site explorer use and knowledge available from the team and forum is light years ahead of what you can get elsewhere (plus the community is nice).
SEOMoz are at the forefront of new tools and ways of doing SEO, and this coupled with the tool-set and knowledge base is what you're paying your $99 a month for. Traffic Travis only seems to offer a more limited tool set without any automation features.
SEOMoz all the way!

SEOmoz Dashboard Report: Crawl Diagnostic Summary
Hi there, I'm noticing that the total errors for our website has been going up and down drastically almost every other week. 4 weeks ago there were over 10,000 errors. 2 weeks ago there were barely 1,000 errors. Today I'm noticing it's back to over 12,000 errors. It says the majority of the errors are from duplicate page content & page title. We haven't made any changes to the titles or the content. Some insight and explanation for this would be much appreciated. Thanks, Gemma

Does anyone know of a crawler similar to SEOmoz's RogerBot?
As you probably know SEOmoz had some hosting and server issues recently, and this came at a terrible time for me... We are in the middle of battling some duplicate content and crawl errors and need to get a fresh crawl of some sites to test things out before we are hit with the big one? Before I get a million thumbs downs- I love and will continue to use SEOmoz, just need something to get me through this week ( or until Roger is back! )!

New To SEOMOZ, 2 Questions...
Hi, 1. I got signed up with SEOMOZ yesterday and would like to know about the competitive analysis tool. I saw in a demo video of SEOMOZ that there was an aspect of Social links (Facebook etc) included in the analysis, I can't see this in my analysis however. 2. Is it possible to change websites over time? Let say in a few months I want to work on a new website, can I remove one of my 5 and add a new one? Thanks! James

SEOMOZ Canonical notices using Wordpress
I keeping getting the notice from SEO Moz Crawls relating to Canonical issues. I have tried Yoast SEO, All-in-One SEO and both insert the appropriate canonical code... Can anyone help determine why the crawls report this notice? Check out seoontario.ca\testamonials for an example. Could it be because the site in my SEOMOZ crawl does not have the http:// prefix? I've now installed FV Simpler SEO, a variant of All In Once SEO, but am getting the same canonical code...

Ranking better
Hello there, I am after some specific guidance on how to rank well for the keyword ‘Translation Services’. I have managed to get the site www.pstranslation.co.uk to page 2 of google UK for this key term. The difficulty is I seem to have run out of steam now on how to get higher rankings. After spending a considerable amount of time creating content and gaining links I managed to get the site from around page 15 on google uk to page 4 then to page 2. That’s where it seems to have stopped. I (think I) have got the onsite SEO pretty well nailed. I have got some good linkable content (http://www.pstranslation.co.uk/infog_languages.html,http://www.pstranslation.co.uk/language_resources_indus.html) and have plans to produce a more. Experience working within the language industry tells me that a top 3 position on page 1 for this keyword can very lucrative so my main focus of SEO is to rank well for this key phrase. There is a very good chance you reply will simply be get more (better) links and if it is that’s fine but is there anything else I can do? Am I missing a very obvious trick anywhere? Looking forward to your reply.
