Creating a new campaign?
-
Hi,
Upon signing up I clicked the link to create a new campaign, but nothing happened. The background loaded and that was it. I tried refreshing and still nothing.
I went to the Pro dashboard and keep seeing "Oops! Try refreshing the page, if that doesn't work, please click here to contact our help team."
Under campaigns there's no button I see to create a new one. The documentation about it here:
http://moz.com/help/pro/campaign-setup
is outdated.I tried putting in a support ticket but the link doesn't work, just redirects me back to the top of the page. I was using Firefox but switched to Chrome, but neither browser works.
Any ideas? I have to say this isn't exactly the best first impression...

Thank you, Sean! The workaround gets me in with no problem! I tried it on my Mac, and a Windows machine with no luck (the only computer it worked on was my Linux system running Ubuntu) so this definitely helps.
Thanks again,
Robert

Hi Robert,
I am sorry to hear that you having trouble accessing Moz Analytics. We have a small set of users that are unable to access our system. This seems to be an issue only with specific machines, since I am able to access your Moz Analytics account with no trouble, which means that it is a very difficult issue to fix. This may be resolved by trying another computer but if it is not try the solutions provided below:
It looks like our engineers have identified two possible causes and solutions for this issue:
-
Highly sensitive anti-virus software. The way to get around this is to whitelist moz.com in the software. If you are running Sophos Anti-Virus on Mac. Disable the option 'Block malicious downloads from websites, protecting your Mac from obfuscated, polymorphic and zero-day threats before reaching your browser'.
-
Enterprise firewalls that block us, which you may need to work with your IT department on if you do not have direct access to your firewall settings.
You may also want to try to access the site through this link here: http://proxy.freya.moz.com/ which circumvents the database that causes the issue in some networks. This is not a workaround as you will not be able to access all sections of the tools.
Hope this helps and definitely let me know if you have any questions!

Hi Keri,
Thanks for the info. Unfortunately it still isn't working for me. I'll try another computer later today.
Thanks,
Robert

Hi! It looks like you ran across our help information for the older Pro version of the software. Current setup information is at http://moz.com/help/guides/getting-started/campaign-setup, which may help you some. I'd also suggest clearing your cache and Moz cookies, or trying in a different browser.
Our help desk has been assigned this question, but may not be responding right away because of the weekend, so I wanted to jump in with a couple of suggestions. Hope this helps!

Multiple campaigns for one website with multiple services?
Hi. Brand new to Moz Pro today. Question about whether to set up multiple campaigns for one website that promotes multiple services. I own a law firm and we have one main location, one website, 5 attorneys, and about 8-10 practice areas we promote. Each practice area has its own page and related content in the form of guides and blogs. Website is southernmarylandlaw.com. I only have this one website to track and promote, so I initially thought I only have one campaign. But I do want to track these separate practice areas separately. Each will have separate competitors, for instance. Each will need a separate set of keywords. People tend to search for a particular type of attorney, not just for the generic "lawyers." Should I use my 10 campaigns to set up a different campaign for each practice area we promote? Am I doing something wrong by tracking my one website 10 different times in my account? If I do not do this, then how do I possibly track the various practice areas and their separate keywords and competitors? Thanks for all your help and suggestions!

What day of the week should I set my campaigns up on?
I am new to doing SEO, and am not an SEO professional. I'm just taking a DIY approach to learning about and doing my own SEO for some non-profit work and using Moz is my first foray into it. I have a question about which day of the week is best to run my campaigns. I have 5 campaigns running, but I set them up rather haphazardly. So one is running on Saturdays, and the remaining 4 run on Mondays. I am running these campaigns on sites that are not mine. I'm not the webmaster. This is a non-profit, sort of a research effort that seeks to investigate other non-profit websites that all advocate on a particular topic. I'd like to be able to compare the 5 campaigns (e.g., their keyword rankings especially). So I think I should get them all running on the same day. Setting aside that Moz isn't able to let me switch which day they run on, I'm needing advice on how to think about which day of the week I should choose. I haven't been running them for very long and I'm sill a newbie so I don't think it's a huge deal that I'll need to re-setup at least one of the campaigns to get them all on the same day. I've been searching Moz Q & A and google for things like "best day of the week to track SERPs" and "how often to track SERPs" but I'm not getting anything that's helping me think about what's important for choosing a day of the week. I am getting results for other rank trackers out there that let you do more frequent ranking but I'm not quite ready to branch out to other tools, so I really more need some guidance on how to think about which day of the week to choose here in Moz. Blog posts, tutorials, links to related questions, etc on this topic would be awesome, plus your general thoughts and discussion on it would be great, too.

How do I edit my website URL in a Campaign?
The option to change the URL is grayed out. Is there a way to do this or do I have to create a whole new campaign?

'not a valid url' error in campaign set up
I get the error not a valid url when I'm trying to set up a campaign. I know it's a valid url. I have tried with www, non-www, http://, https:// when I do the https it lets me start, but then I get an error that https is forwarding to http and I need to use that. When I then put in the http, I get the original error. thanks in advance for your help.

Down for me? Or everyone? 504 errors on campaigns and research tools.
Additionally direct emails to help@moz.com don't work and return a permanent failure error. There's also no verification email coming through when using the message form page to contact support, I'm presuming it's emailing the above email but also failing.

Setting up a new campaign after deactivating an old one
I set up a new campaign and had to go back to deactivate an existing one before I could activate it. Now I cant find the new one I set up, and when I try to re-input the info to set up the campaign it says that I cant because it already exists. Where do I find the campaign I already set up but couldn't activate??
