I have a client with a wordpress.com site.
-
Is it possible to manage a campaign for such a site on Moz? It looks like in order to be able to add an independent Google Analytics tracking id, he has to upgrade to a business account. Does anybody have any experience with this?
-
Thanks Chiaryn! I've set it up, and will follow up with my client on the other stuff.

The traffic section is an integration that you can add to your campaign, but it is not necessary for the majority of the reports we run. Pretty much all of our reports are generated with proprietary data collected by our own crawlers and do not rely on the integration to be set up. Having a GA account connected to your campaign can certainly add color and insight to these other reports, but it is not required for our tools to run on the site.

I'm sorry, as follow up - I'm confused - from the screenshot that I attached, I was under the impression that Google Analytics was important to show traffic data? Am I missing something?
-
Thanks Chiaryn. I'd prefer to move this client off of Wordpress.com, but that's a discussion for him, not here :). Good to know - I'll get the campaign started today.

Hey Cindy, you can definitely track Wordpress sites with our tools.
You don't need to add any type of tracking code for our tools, so you can just enter the homepage URL in the campaign creation and get started from there. All of our reports are generated by accessing the site directly and crawling through the links to pages we find there.
I'm afraid I don't have any advice on the Google Analytics issue, though, since I haven't managed a Wordpress site myself. So I will leave that open to our community members to answer.
Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.

Site Crawl - Crawls only homepage?
Hi Moz Comunity! Joined Moz just 2 weeks ago and slowly trying to get used to tools available in here! Great tools and info available on this site! My concern is that Site Crawl of Moz in my Campaign seems to have crawled only my homepage and no other sub-domains, is there any reason for this? FOr some reason it seems that Moz interacts only with my homepage? Even when I tried the Keyword Exlporer set on Keyword to see if any of my pages rank for any keywords, it seems only my homepage was ranking for a few keywords. It's possible my other sub-domains don't rank for any keywords yet but still, seems suspicious... I have added a link to Site Crawl that says it has crawled only 3 pages on my site, and all are my homepage... Thanks for any help! Jacob s!AlxV7sobbcgmhJB_fXcF4EPzbPSovA

Open site explorer
Excuse my ignorance but I am very new to all this. I have a new site www.sassandgrace.co.uk and am using MOZ to try and get it right first time. On OSE I am seeing different results for http://www.sassandgrace.co.uk/ and http://www.sassandgrace.co.uk i.e with an without / ) and different results again for http://sassandgrace.co.uk These differences relate to the social page metrics but I would be keen to get one consistent reading. What do I need to do? Also, I know that I have links to the site but none are showing at all. On google console there are a couple showing but I know that there are many more. Is it just a matter of time before they are 'found' or is there something that I should be doing? Sorry for what are probably very basic questions but any help is appreciated.

How Do I Scan My New Site & Grade My Work With The Robots Turned Off? For Pre-Inspection before I launch my Site?
I have a new site that has all the bots turned off so google can't index my site until I'm finished it. I've been working on this site for a couple months now optimizing and I was wondering if there was anyway I can run a preliminary scan on the site for my titles, URLs, Headers, Alt Tags and pretty much anything else that will grade my work and tell me if i did anything wrong? Can MOZ do this with the Bots turned off? Thanks

I would like to find out where all this traffic is coming from. It is most likely from an out of date sales site etc, but it's important to find out as it could be the result of hacking etc. It appears the page is linked to another site and I would like to find out which one(s) Entering the page url is not getting results, can anyone help?

New to using MOZ. Familiar with Google Analytics. With MOZ is there a code snippet to include on my site?
Just taken over web marketing responsibilities at my company. Will be doing some major website upgrades soon. I'm not familiar with MOZ and don't want to overwrite anything. So when setting up MOZ, is there a code snippet that goes anyplace on the site like there is with Google analytics? Thanks.
