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

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!

SEOMoz reports and 404 errors
My SEOMoz report shows a 404 error, found today for this url: http://globalheavyhaul.com/google.com i do not have this anchor text anywhere on my website. How did Roger figure out that somebody looked for that page? Do I need to worry about 404 errors that are the result of user mistakes, instead of actual bad links?

SEOmoz Keyword Ranking - Does it work for local search?
I was just wondering how SEOmoz calculates keyword rankings up and down every week. Shouldn't there be a way to have SEOmoz calculate rankings on a Local and Non-Local Basis? For example I have "Local Dentist" as a keyword in SEOmo for my dental client. SEOmoz shows that we are not in the Top 50. | Local dentist Keyword History Ranking Analysis | Not in Top 50 | Moved unknown 0 spaces | Not in Top 50 | Moved unknown 0 spaces | Not in Top 5 | If I change my location in Google browser to the zip of where the office is located, we

FF SEOMoz toolbar issue
I sent the email below to help@seomoz.org on the 12th April and haven't heard anything back so thought I'd fire it up here in case someone has a solution for me... "For the past month or so I've had an issue in Firefox where my SEOmoz toolbar appears to not sign me in, or allow me to sign in. All metrics are 0 for all websites/pages and if I click the login button, nothing happens at all. If I click the Quick Links button the drop down menu appears but whichever option from the drop down I choose, nothing happens. I'm funning Firefox 11.0 and have attached a screen grab of the bar as it appears no matter where I browse.

Can you set-up a manual SEOmoz crawl?
I received a crawl report yesterday, made some site changes, and would like to see if those changes were done correctly. Rather than wait a week for my automatic crawl to be generated, is there anyway to initiate a manual crawl on a single subdomain as a PRO member? As a PRO member, you can schedule crawls for 2 subdomains every 24 hours, and you'll get up to 3,000 pages crawled per subdomain. When we've finished crawling, your reports will be sent to your PRO email address, which is currently From here... http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test

Campaign warnings and recommendations
How crucial is it to follow / fix the campaign warnings. For example, even though our website is ranking well the campaign report is stating that we've too many links on the majority of pages and the title element is too long. My question is if I make changes based on these recommendations, do you think that we will see a dramatic improvement in our rankings ?

How to track with SEOMOZ a website in several language
Hi, We have a customer with a website in EN, FR and ES. They used Joomfish, so each language is in a subdirectory : sitename/en sitename/fr sitename/es and they want their website to be well placed on the web for all that languages and countries: English, French, Spanish, German and Italian. It is a website for specific affiliation, that's why there is no barriers. What I need to do to use the best way SEOmoz. For the moment I created one campaign following Google US, google Germany and Google France. To go deeper, I would need to create different campaigns in my account? And also, your robot will be able to recognize the different subdirectories and languages? And to improve the SEO of this website, it wouldn't be better to have 3 domains name, one for each country? Thanks a lot in advance for your answer, Anne
