How to make a Crawl Report readable?
-
Hi!
I am trying to find out how I make my CSV report neat, so I can interprete the report.
I know have a CSV report with just numbers and text all in one column. I tried the button text to columns but that doesn't work because when I do that at column A it overwrites column B in which I have the same problem!
Thanks

Hi Lonneke
It depends on your version of Excel, but it sounds to me like you are opening a file that is CSV (comma separated values) and excel isn't seeing the comma as a delimiter.
When you first open the file, there should be a wizard that lets you specify that it is a delimited (not fixed) file and that your delimiter is a comma. That should fix your problem....

Hi Carole,
Thank you for your help. Before I can use a pivot table, I first need to split the columns with the data to different columns. How do I do that? I now have things like 'no,no no no no no, in one cel..

Hi L.B.,
Your best bet is to use Pivot Tables in Excel. With pivot tables, you'll be able to aggregate, sort, and filter the data, which will then become extremely valuable!

Duplicate content report - question on best practice
Hello all, New to MOZ Pro and SEO - so lots to get my head round! I’m working through the Duplicate Content section of the Crawl report and am not sure what the best practice is for my situation. Background: We are a reference guide for luxury hotels around the world, but the hotels that are featured on the site vary year on year. When we add a new hotel page, it sets up the url as ourwebsite.com/continent/country/regionORcity/hotel. When the hotels come off, I redirect their URL to the country or region where we have other hotels. Example: http://www.johansens.com/europe/switzerland/zermatt/ The hotel in Zermatt has come off the site, showing 0 results on this landing page. Question: My duplicate content report is showing a number of these regional pages that are displaying the copy “0 places - Region’ because the hotel has come off, but the landing page is still live. Should I redirect the regional page back to the main country page? And then if I add a new hotel to the site from that region in the future, simply remove the redirect? Should I also delete the page? Any tips would be much appreciated!

Analytics reporting
I am new to the world of SEO and Google Analytics specifically. I want to find a way to easily see top pages, search terms, and traffic. In Moz I thought I could see this by using "traffic from search", but I only see one page that is ghost spam nothing related to any of my pages. I made sure the right account is connected and it is. Any suggestions on how to get this data easily?

Duplicate content in crawl despite canonical
Hi! I've had a bunch of duplicate content issues come up in a crawl, but a lot of them seem to have canonical tags implemented correctly. For example: http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Fireplaces http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Nursery http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Turntables http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Turntables?page=0 Aztec http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Turntables?page=1 Any ideas on what's happening here?

Crawlers crawl weird long urls
I did a crawl start for the first time and i get many errors, but the weird fact is that the crawler tracks duplicate long, not existing urls. For example (to be clear): there is a page: www.website.com/dogs/dog.html but then it is continuing crawling:
Moz Pro | | r.nijkamp
www.website.com/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html what can I do about this? Screaming Frog gave me the same issue, so I know it's something with my website0 -
Do the SEOmoz Campaign Reports follow Robots.txt?
Hello, Do the SEOmoz Campaign Reports (that track errors and warnings for a website) follow rules I write in the robots.txt file? I've done all that I can to fix the legitimate errors with my website, as reported by the fabulous SEOmoz tools. I want to clean up my pages indexed with the search engines so I've written a few rules to exclude content from Wordpress tag URLs for instance. Will my campaign report errors and warnings also drop as a result of this?

No internal links showing up in OpenSiteExplorer report
Hi there A simple one. I was just looking at our site in opensiteexplorer and notice that it says we have no internal links at all: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s244/sh/dd8cc88f-fee4-4ba2-8ec0-f3f8d5c408db/8d3fc3d2aa6fc9d5406051bc91731402 Rather odd as we do. Is this a bug with OSE that anyone knows about or something else? Any ideas / thoughts gratefully received.

SEOmoz ranking report SERP
I was wondering how SEOmoz the SERPs tracks? e.g. the SERP of keyword in the Google US report, doesn't give me the same result as https://www.google.com/search?pws=0&gl=us&q=keyword Does SEOmoz check the google.com SERPs from several locations and calculate an average?
