How to use MOZ to improve my website

[Steplead]

Hi,

I am new for MOZ, have no idea how to improve my website with the function of MOZ, can anyone share their experience for using MOZ service. the more detail the better!

Thanks a lot in advance!

John

Thanks for helps for everyone, it took me some time to read each answer, and also spend few days to study MOZ. My initial conclusion is the function of MOZ is to promote the idea of SEO, but not provide any specific SEO service for specific website except for some tools and report. So I am missing or misunderstanding MOZ's service, it will be always welcome to help me out by correcting my opinion. Anyway, thanks again for all the time you've given to me, and good to you all!

-John.

Robert,

Thank you so much for the kind words about Q&A. Christy Correll and I are the two people who are the most involved with Q&A on a day-to-day basis, and it's awesome to know that the conversations here are what led you to sign up!

I actually joined MOZ purely because I was following the QA reading the new topics each night for a few weeks. That was what convinced me to join. I have come across so many problems with MOZ and honestly still do not have any idea what I am really doing but I can post in QA which is good.

The on-Page grader is my favourite tool for a beginner like myself. But I am hoping in time they fix the issues I have found and I am sure there will be plenty more out there worth me taking up the $99 a month. (Fingers Crossed)

Hi John,

Welcome to Moz. We are glad you are here! You asked a great question, and have already received some solid advice. See how friendly folks are around here? A similar question was asked last week at http://moz.com/community/q/make-the-most-of-moz. You may want to take a peek at it, as Peter Lunn and Cyrus Shepard linked to some excellent resources there.

Cheers,
Christy

it sounds like you're in the same boat I was 6 months ago, so I can tell you, you are already using the most important tool Moz has to offer: this q/a forum. Granted, you should definitely take advantage of the 101 videos and tutorials, but it's amazing the quality of info top level people in this industry will give you, just because you asked.

Good luck!

Moz is great because it provides metrics and information about your site.  SEO is still an art and a science.  The tools that Moz has won't rank your site.  They will help provide invaluable information about your site.  You'll still have to choose the best path for your marketing strategy.  For example, if Moz tells you that you have 25 pages of duplicate content, it doesn't do anything for you unless you know how to act on that information.  If you haven't done so already, I highly recommend reading over Moz's beginner guide to SEO. I'm not saying you should learn SEO (you probably already know alot) but the guide has information in it that may help you think about how to use the tools that Moz offers.  (http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo)

I run a few campaigns in Moz and each of them are set up completely different. Here is a help guide for each of the tools here on Moz and how they can be used to extract data.  http://moz.com/help/guides/research-tools.  If you look at the left sidebar, you'll see links to the specific tools.  On each of those tabs there are videos, a how-to section and FAQs.  By going through each tool and seeing what each does, you'll be able to see how to effectively use the tools to generate the type of data you need to develop an awesome web strategy.

On-page SEO checking tool  was a big draw for me to moz, i would go through your websites landing pages with the moz on-page grader tool

Actually most of the tools you get full access to are pretty sweet, Opensite explorer for your own link profile and looking at competitors i also find very useful.
