Redirect analysis tool
-
I'm looking for a tool like this:
http://www.internetofficer.com/seo-tool/redirect-check/
that can check hundreds/thousands of URLs and give me a report as to which ones have been redirected.
Does anyone know of something that can do this?

Hey John,
I presume you're more interested in external links that are pointing to URL's that are 302'd (temporary redirected) since they are basically missed opportunity along with those URL's that are broken.
Finding both are pretty easy to accomplish once you've run the SEOmoz crawl report. Once its done it should show up here. Download the report and open in excel.
When open, setup the following column filters based on section titles on row 6:
1. Filter to only show URL's that have external links pointing at them (column AO on my report)
2. Filter to only show 302 redirects (column S on my report)
3. Take note of resulting list which are those pages that have temp redirects AND which have external links pointing at them.
4. Now remove the 302 filter and apply filters for 4XX and 5XX "client errors" to find URL's that appear broken to the engines AND which have in-bound external links.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Stefan

I ran the test yesterday using the SEO Webcrawler Crawl Test. The URL.
The site I scanned was a site with three pages on the domain and several thousand external links. My goal is to find out if the external links are pointing at 301's or are broken.
How do I do this with this tool?

A crawl of a website will do this such as the crawl test tool from SEOmoz. This will crawl up to 3,000 pages and can be found under the research tools tab.
Alternatively you could use the Screaming Frog SEO Spider which will crawl 500 urls for free or for £99 a year, the 500 url limit is removed.
Both crawl reports will give you detailed info about redirects.
Adam.

Internal and external links showing in Webmaster Tools but not in MOZ
Hi there I set up a campaign 2 weeks ago but I am registering zero internal or external links for my website. It's a small site with only about 300 external links but they show in Webmaster tools but not in my link report or Open Site Explorer. Do I need to wait until the next OSE crawl or is something wrong with my set up? Thanks in advance! Laurie

SeoMoz: Competitive domain analysis report doesn't add up?
Hi, When I check OSE against the Competitive Domain Analysis report in my account the numbers are way off. If the CDA report was 100%, OSE is showing 30% of that. I'm looking at linking root domains with no filters applied. Is the data not pulled from the same db? Thanks.

How can I tell what day I added my keywords to the keyword ranking tool?
I can't tell if a keyword is newly ranking or if it just started ranking because I added it to the system. I have added keywords piecemeal over several months and I can't remember which ones I added on which date. Can anyone help me with this?

Onpage Optimization Tool - Optimize it? :)
I've been using your on-page optimization tool allot lately, I must say it simply is a great checklist to run a page through and it forces you to think about it a bit more and you notice stuff that you might otherwise have overlooked (read forgot) . But! ('cause there's always a but..) I have noticed a few issues: it could be optimized to recognize plural endings, given this is a hard one since there's allot of languages.. but It would be awesome if it did.. right? (just like the SE's do) I would be more then willing to help with the Danish. Since you already specify what version of google you wanna target eg: ".DK" it might not be all that hard to implement plural? now that we are mentioning other languages.. It would be equally sweet if it would see the correlation between Ø and OE, Å and ÅÅ and so on.. (scandinavian chars for those of you who don't know) again the SE's do For German letters I expect (not sure though, I'm not German, I speak it a bit though, so if your German feel free to correct me 🙂 that the SE's would see the letter Ö as an OE.. Ü as UE, Ä as an AE and so on. Why is the above important? well because that many still use those versions of the letters in URL's. Even though all browsers/mail clients now a'days are able to understand punycode.

How often do you update Link Analysis tool?
Wondering how often SEOMOZ updates their Link Analysis pages? I have had the same status for a month or so - although I know we have added links, etc.

Anyone having problems with the SEOmoz KWD Tool??
Just a quicky: Tried to run keyword difficulty tool reports last couple of days but keep getting error messages regardless of how many words/phrases I request. Is this a general outage or just me? Cheers
