Hi Chiaryn:
I thought this would be a really helpful platform however it is more frustrating than not. I am not able to add competitors in my campaign. I am able to change the 3 that appear in the campaign but NOT able to add a competitor.

Hi Angelos,
Thanks for writing in. Unfortunately, at this time, we are only able to track competitors at the subdomain level within the campaigns and we can't limit it to just the specific subfolder or page. I'm really sorry about that!
If your competitor only has one page that is relevant to your business, you may still be able to get valuable information by adding the subdomain, since we will only report on the URL from their site that is ranking for your specific keywords.
I would recommend adding a request for the ability to limit which pages of the competitor subdomain we track to our feature request forum. Here's the feature request forum we use to collect ideas: http://seomoz.zendesk.com/forums/293194-seomoz-pro-feature-requests
You can add your request there and vote for other features you'd like to see, both of which help our product team in deciding what to build next.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

The problem is not that the link is new ( which is not ) it tells me that i cannot add links with /path.
The only problem is that the link i have as a competitor is www.competitorslink.com/magazine
nothing else.

What's the exact problem you're facing? Sometimes competing pages may cause problems if that page is relatively new. Plug the URL into http://www.opensiteexplorer.org and see if that page's stats have been indexed by SEOmoz yet. If you get some stats and still can't add your competing page, then I suggest you open a help ticket with the moz team

How better can we compare with a competitor ?
We were ranking 1st to 5th spot for the keyword, "PSD to Joomla Template" for this page, http://www.qubesys.com/psd-to-joomla-template/ for last 2 years! But since last 6 months, we are getting like 0 traffic to this page and absolutely no leads. We just tried to compare with a ranking competitor who has been on top for last 7-8 months already, www.joomla6teen.com/Convert-PSD-to-Joomla-Template.html I just compared it with my page, http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/comparisons?site=www.joomla6teen.com%2FConvert-PSD-to-Joomla-Template.html&comparisons[0]=http://www.qubesys.com/psd-to-joomla-template/ I see our page wins in PAGE METRICS , but falls in SUB DOMAIN AND ROOT DOMAIN Metrics . Whats that ? How do we know, what all things we need to improve at ?

What's the best way to discover my business and search competitors?
I am trying to figure out who the real competitors are for the domain that I have been recently handed. Other than the client's references, which I don't think are the real competition (they are his benchmarks), how do I go about discovering the true competition? What the simplest, most effective way to go about discovering my business and search competitors? Given that this is a web portal, aren't both of the latter the same?
