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) 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!
Regards, Do

This why I am here for
Good luck!
(Check for those duplicates too, it can cause you some trouble if not eliminated)
-
Alright, will do. Thank you for your time!!

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

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 :))

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.

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

How do you create tracking URLs in Wordpress without creating duplicate pages?
I use Wordpress as my CMS, but I want to track click activity to my RFQ page from different products and services on my site. The easiest way to do this is through adding a string to the end of a URL (ala http://www.netrepid.com/request-for-quote/?=colocation) The downside to this, of course, is that when Moz does its crawl diagnostic every week, I get notified that I have multiple pages with the same page title and the dup content. I'm not a programming expert, but I'm pretty handy with Wordpress and know a thing or two about 'href-fing' (yeah, that's a thing). Can someone who tracks click activity in WP with URL variables please enlighten me on how to do this without creating dup pages? Appreciate your expertise. Thanks!

Rankings confusion in pro campaign
Hello Moz-world! I recently set up a new campaign, and the crawl is still in the process of wrapping up (been 4 days). When I look at my rankings it tells me "not in the top 50" then when I scroll over, it shows me that my client is ranking in position 3, in the instance of one keyword. Anyone know why there is a discrepancy between what the report shows, and what it shows when you mouse over the rankings? Thanks! Tyler

First Campaign: No email when each step is completed?
I joined SEOMoz 6 days ago and set up my first campaign straight away. On my Campaign Overview, it says: "Here's what you can expect over the coming days (we'll send you an email when each step is completed". But I've not received an email saying that any of the steps are completed, so I haven't really used any of the tools yet as I wanted to wait until I had something to work with 🙂 Since it's almost been 7 days (will be 7 tomorrow), do I assume that most if not all of the stages have now been completed and I can get started? Thanks, Iain.

Which URL to use for my campaign?
My outdated CMS redirects from a clean url root domain to an ugly url. Should I use the ugly one to start a my campaign? So when you type in www.site.com it redirects to www.site.com/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4/Home.htm Should I use the url it redirects to when starting a campaign?

Does it make sense to have multiple campaigns for one website?
I'm new to SEO and SEOMoz. While setting up my campaigns, I was a bit confused. Do I need to setup separate campaigns for different pages of my site? For example, I run a proofreading service: www.kibin.com I obviously want to track keyword on the main page (like proofreading service), however, I also want to track keywords (like 'essay editing') on www.kibin.com/essay-editing Should these be two separate campaigns or do I just put all the keywords into one campaign for kibin.com? Thanks!

Issue with Data Updates on Campaign
I'm reviewing a campaign I am running for a client, the Keywords data has not updated yet even though it's supposed to update every monday. The competitive analysis shows a date of August 14, which is odd becuase I'm on a trial account?

Is it possible to use the RankTracker to track specific location rankings?
We are a regional store and tracking the "global" rankings isn't super useful. We need to know what our organic rankings are for our specific market area. Is this possible with the SEOMOZ Rank tracker tool? I didn't see this option but I just wanted to check over here since it seems like it would be a pretty common issue. Thanks!
