How to exclude a specific subdomain from SEOMoz Campaign?
-
Forgive me if I've overlooked something obvious, but how can I exclude a subdomain from a campaign? I want to crawl/analyze mywebsite.com, but not subdomain.mywebsite.com
Thanks in advance...

We're curious as well. This would be a feature that we would like to see.
-
Has this option been enabled as of yet? to change?

Hi there Aaron,
Thanks for the question, at this point we do not have that feature built into the campaign feature. We are hoping to add that to a future version of the tool, however we don't have a firm ETA. If you like to be kept in the loop you could subscribe to us on our FB page or our Twitter @SEOmoz
Best,

I have an existing campaign setup, is there a way to change it to only the root domain at this point?
-
Hey Aaron,
An other option would be dependent on how the site is setup. If you want to block the one subdomain and everything else exists on another, you could set your campaign up as a subdomain campaign for the one you want to crawl.
The downside is that if the site is spread among several subdomains you want to crawl you won't get everything.
I hope that works out for you.
Cheers,
Joel. -
Thanks Joel. Unfortunately this particular subdomain is a CNAME to a hosted service where I don't have the ability to update a robots.txt file. Are there any other options?
-
Hey Aaron,
Thanks for the question!
The way to do that would be to actually set a robots.txt file under that subdomain and block the user-agent: RogerBot with a Disallow: /That will let our crawler run loose in your site without touching that subdomain.
I hope that helps. Let me know if you need anything else.
Cheers,
Joel. -
Hi there,
On the campaign setup, you are given 3 options there:
subdomain, root domain and subfolder.
Try to change the setting to root domain so that only the mywebsite.com will be crawled and analyzed.
Hope that helps!

Does a subdomain hurt/help a domain?
My organization's website currently hosts research databases on a subdomain. We're relatively new to MOZ and when I ran a crawl of my site, it came back with 30K issues.... 98% of which are on this subdomain. I wish I could just remove it and call it a day, however, real and active researchers use it regularly. My question is: Does a subdomain hurt/help a domain? I'm seeing mixed results via Google search and browsing this forum. I'm concerned that I will not be able to fix these 30K issues as I do have access to maintain this database... and just by looking at it you can tell it was built in 2005 and hasn't been updated from an SEO perspective since. Any suggestions?

Multiple Sites/Internal Pages Campaign
Can MOZ do reports/ranks/campaigns separately for each of our sites, then do separate keyword campaigns for specific internal content pages of each of the websites? For a law firm with both a defense and family law sites. We have multiple pages within each site, we will need to do separate and individual campaigns for assault, burglary, traffic tickets, ect. in our defense site. And we'll need other specific campaigns for other specific content in out family law site. Will Moz be able to accommodate our needs with their $99/mo plan or is that service only available for higher packages? (or is it even possible in ANY of their packages???) Thanks.

http://footdistrict.com/new-balance-gm500mbn.html?___store=footdistrict_en
http://footdistrict.com/new-balance-m400nnb.html?___store=footdistrict_en My guess is that this is due to the fixed footer that we have set where modal windows pop up with delivery info and so on. As such, all the content within it is repeated through all the pages What do you recommend me to remove this duplicate content? I have read about duplicate content issues but they don't usually deal with div tag duplicate issues, modal windows and so on. Thanks Regards0 -

Tracking Local Keywords in Campaigns.
When selecting keywords to track in campaign mode, how should I enter the keywords for a company located in a city that shares the same name as another city in a different state? My assumption is that if you're searching for "Garden City Plumber" within Garden City Michigan that Google will know your IP and show local results (as opposed to results from Garden City California). If I want to track the key phrase "Garden City Plumber" in campaign mode how will SEOMoz know which city to deliver results for? Thanks in advance.
