Ideal Campaign Set Up For Multiple Landing Pages Post Panda
-
I have a local floor cleaning business in the UK. I have various discrete services e.g. carpet cleaning, stone restoration and polishing (a page for each type of stone) that are delivered in distance geographical service areas. Each page is set up to target a "town/service" keyword. In each geographical location I have different competitors
Should I set individual campaigns for each landing page or is one site wide campaign the way to go.
Many thanks

Thank you Megan - Just what I wanted - I had not considered the competitor angle.

Hi David! This is Megan from SEOmoz. You could really set up your campaigns either individually or as a root domain - it just depends on what you think would work best for your needs. Here are some pros and cons, though, that will hopefully help you reach your decision.
Root Domain -
Pros: 1. Might be easier for you to have everything in one spot rather than clicking between campaigns. 2. If you have the same keyword you want to track for everything then you would only need to enter it once as opposed to adding it to each campaign (and thus taking up several keyword spaces out of your allotted 300 instead of just 1)
Cons: 1. You're only given 3 competitor comparisons, so it would be pretty limiting if you have several competitors you want to track against
Individual campaigns -
Pros: 1. You can track up to 3 competitors for each campaign so you would be able to keep an eye on the direct competitors for each service. 2. It might be more convenient to have all of the data separated out to create clear lines between the services.
Cons: 2. It would takes up a lot more campaigns slots
I hope this helps at least a little bit! If you want to send us your specific URLs so we can take a closer look, feel free to send them to help[at]seomoz.org.
Thanks!

Thank you for your repiles Sandip and Keri.
Yes I'm trying to understand how to set up my SEP Moz campaign considering I will have a number of PPC and SEO landing pages. Will a root url cover all the pages or will I need to set campaign per page?

I'm looking at the tags for this post -- you're wondering about how to set up your SEOmoz campaigns, right?

Not sure whether you are talking about PPC campaign or organic SEO...

Why does moz give different page authority to the same page if a visit comes from adwords vs organic search?
When clicking on an adwords ad the page the landing page has a page authority of 26. When clicking on organic search to the same exact landing page the page authority is 37. Why is this. Does moz or, more importantly Google see these as the same or separate pages? Thanks Tom

Is my 404 page set up correctly?
HI there! In using a few different tools, and I have received varied result concerning my 404 page. In WebSite Auditor from Link Assistant, it says my page is set up incorrectly. My webmaster has told me that it is set up correctly, but at this point I'm not entirely sure what's what. Is there another way to test it? I guess i'm not quite sure about the jargon and what "return 404 response code" actually means. Thanks for your help!

Why does one page rank while a similar page doesn't?
We have a blog post (actually several of them that have the same SEO characteristics) that brings a fair amount of traffic to our site (relatively speaking), and according to Google Webmaster Tools it averages in the top 10 in SERPs for various terms. This page has no external links to it, and very few internal links pointing to it. When I run Moz's On-Page Grader for the various keywords it ranks for, the page get's an F on all of them. It was not optimized for any keyword, and it isn't our best content; it was a blog post written a few years ago and forgotten about and was never promoted in any way. The topic does happen to be about something that people search for frequently. According to the keyword difficulty tool, all of the keywords it ranks for have 40-45% difficulty. We have lots of other pages on our site that we have tried to optimize and that get A's and B's in On-Page Grader, that have both internal (from the home page and main menu) and external links pointing at them, etc, but they don't rank well at all. Keyword difficulty for these keywords is in the same range, from 37 - 53%. Why does this one page rank so well when the other pages don't? Additionally, we have been looking at a competitor who has a page that ranks #1 in universal results for numerous keywords according to SEMRush, yet the page gets an F On-page Grader for those keywords. The page has 3 links to it, all from the same domain and it has a very low domain and page authority. The Domain Authority of this page is 47 and the page authority is 33 according to Open Site Explorer (compared with our DA of 30, and PA of 1), and the social metrics are a bit higher than ours, but neither has a lot (they may have 15 likes to our 10). Why does this page rank so well for them? How can we get our Page Authority higher? Thanks for any and all help.

Where do these error 404 pages come from
Hi, I've got a list of about 12 url's in our 404 section on here which I'm confused about. The url's relate to Christmas so they have not been active for 9 months. Can anyone answer where the SeoMoz crawler found these url's as they are not linked to on the website. Thanks

Limit of 3 competitors per campaign
Hello, Can I just check why the number of competitors per campaign is limited to 3? ie. We have up to 20 URLs we want to monitor for the same keywords as us. I understand I can add another campaign to track another 4x URLs, but this will not show those in relation to our main URL/campaign. We would prefer to have space for 12 competitors rather than 12 campaigns. If we upgrade to Elite is the number increased? Might be missing something here, as we are new to SEOMoz, so grateful for any advice. SEOMoz is really great, we have learned so much already. Rich

Why am I getting duplicate content errors on same page?
In the SEOmoz tools I am getting multiple errors for duplicate page content and duplicate page titles for one section on my site. When I check to see which page has the duplicate title/content the url listed is exactly the same. All sections are set up the same, so any ideas on why I would be getting duplication errors in just this one section and why they would say the errors are on the same page (when I only have one copy uploaded on the server)?
