Weird campaign problem
-
I have a campaign that is showing a 302 redirect for my site with the page title of:
http://www.example.com/www.example.com
and no URL under it.
what could be causing this?
Thanks!

Thanks for your help, I have had weird campaign bugs in the past too so I had a feeling that could be the case. I'll try Cyrus' recommendation and hopefully I'll have an answer then. Its great that there are so many people in this community who try to help out with issues like this.

thanks for your help, I'll definitely try this.

Hi CJ,
302s, by definition, don't have page titles (because they redirect - there's no title on the page)
So the URL listed there is the URL. This is a little confusing because of the formatting on the SEOmoz report. By default it displays "Title" "URL", but this obviously doesn't work in the case of redirects. Something our UX people should probably take a look at.
Anyway, whats more important is how to fix this.
1. Download your crawl report in CSV format.
2. Open the CSV in Excel or similar program.
3. Search for the URL: http://www.example.com/www.example.com
4. In the last column you'll find the "referrer" information. This is the page that the broken link was found on.
5. Go to that page on your website. Find the broken link. Fix. (unfortunately, I can't tell you how to do this step.)
Hope this helps! Best of luck with your SEO!

I hate scrolling through the Q&A section and seeing a 0-response question surrounded by so many answered and responded-to ones. Whenever it's one of my questions with no responses I always get the feeling I'm being ignored. Know, CJ, that I'm not ignoring you, I just read your question and honestly have not a clue.
It sounds like it could be a campaign bug. It happens, I've had them happen to me a few times. I've had duplicate URLs tagged as duplicate content one crawl, changed nothing, then next crawl it was fine. Sometimes the crawler hiccups. If I were you I'd pull a manual crawl (research tools), or use Xenu to run one, and see if it's there too. If it is, you can see the referring URL, or at least more information. I could be of more assistance then.
If it doesn't appear in those, well, campaign crawler hiccup/

Found hidden pages of outbound links created via ex-SEO consultant. Best way to detect other possible problems?
We paid for an SEO contract in addition to our new website design (same company did both) and after 12 months cancelled the SEO. I have been very suspicious ever since of our bad page rank and general lack of traffic (despite my efforts) and today found a hidden page of outbound links. Currently in shock that this happened although my own fault for lack of due diligence. The SEO consultants were very unhappy that I cancelled the contract so I am worried about the extent of bad links or negative google juice they may have created (god knows what else they may have done). So my questions are: How can I detect any other (potentially hidden) problems? How can I recover from this - any right/wrong way to approach google? What is the best way to bring this up with the SEO consultants? Thank you in advance.

Campaign data via API
I am currently in the process of building an in house system for managing our clients SEO campaigns. One of the features that we will be including is a customer login where clients can view their reports and site progress. We plan on providing rankings and traffic stats within this which we will collect on a weekly basis to store historical changes. While I could integrate into analytics for traffic and create my own web crawler for rankings, this seems a waste since I already have that data in one central location. Looking through the moz API details it seems to have lots of functions for links but nothing relating to the campaigns. Is there any way or are there any plans to open up campaign data to an API? If I could do this I would certainly upgrade to allow each client to have their own campaign.

Opensite Explorer CSV Problems
I'm getting a few formatting errors in the CSVs I export from Opensite Explorer, after I've opened them in Excel. Specifically, in an Inbound Links export, there are several merged fields creating new rows. This seems to be caused by line returns in the Title column. At the moment I'm sorting these all out by hand, but it's a bit of a chore when there are lots of records. However it has to be done, because you can't sort of filter properly otherwise. Has anyone else had similar problems. If so. I'd really appreciate any tips to a) stop it happening, of b) speed up / automate the process of cleaning up the CSVs. Many thanks Ben

SEOMoz Pro still hasn't crawled 10k pages for one campaign
I looked for a question in the forum already for this but couldn't find anything. Perhaps I am using the wrong keywords, so I apologize if this is a duplicate. I recently signed up with SEOMoz Pro and added two campaigns. For one campaign, 10,000 pages were crawled. For the other campaign, only about 300. It's been 2 weeks since I created the campaigns. Is there a way to force a crawl of the site associated with the second campaign?

My Campaign just picked up the .com.au site and is showing data
I've got a campaign set up here in SEOmoz and it appears that it just started picking up data for a site that is not mine. Our site is examplesite.com and i noticed that SEOmoz has begun including examplesite.com.au and is showing 20,000 302's from this site. The .com.au site is in no way related to our business and should not be tracked in our campaign. Has this happened to anyone else?
