Hi,
Has anyone made functions to get link metrics from SEOmoz API in Google docs spreadsheet?
- Page Authority
- Domain Authority
- Linking Root Domains
- Total Links
_Thanks to Tom Critchlow I got the social metrics, now I just need the ones from SEOmoz api. _
Any help would be sweet.

Hey, as promised - here's Ian's post about using the SEOmoz API with Google Docs:

Thanks, awesome work
-
I had a play with this (having been inspired by Tom's great SEO tools with spreadsheets article) I played around with Google docs and some of the sample code to query the SEOMoz API.
(BTW I don't think all the data you're looking for is available with the free API.)
I knocked together a google docs spreadsheet that does the query, hope you find it useful as a guide till someone (Messrs. Critchlow and Lurie?) posts something more user friendly.
To use it, make your own copy of the sheet, then:
- enter your member ID and secret key in the blue cells (D1 and F1) - you can get your info from www.seomoz.org/api
- type a number into B1 for the expiry interval,
- the search query should be self-explanatory (cells A4,B4 and C4)
As you'll see from the code, I'm no Google docs expert, but hopefully you'll see how the call gets put together.

Cool. Looking forward to it.

Hey - I've been working with Ian Lurie from Portent and he has a blog post on it's way that details how to do exactly this! Look out for it in the next week or so

Google Analytics - Dashboard Question
I'm looking to set up a dashboard widget in Google Analytics that does the following but can't : Shows traffic sources in a table as the dimension, and wanting to show goal completions to a specific product page and then only show what the average time spent (by source) on just those product pages. It looks like it's showing the whole session duration for the entire source, but I want to create a secondary filter that is only showing the time spent on those specific pages. Can anyone help - or is this possible? Thanks all!

Bing vs Google Keyword Research
Hi All, I have carried out keyword research based on Google Analytics, Keyword Planner, competitors and various other toolsets.
Reporting & Analytics | | Mark_Ch
My research has been based on performance metrics favored towards Google.
I'm looking to research keyword traffic metrics and suggestions based on Bing Ads Intelligence. My Logic
I have compiled my master list based on Google metrics.
I will carry out Bing search traffic metrics based on my Google master list.
I will carry out Bing keyword suggestions based on my Google master list. My Questions
#1 Will my logic yield me any favorable benefits based on the high number of Google users vs Bing users
#2 Should Bing favor a particular keyword with high search traffic compared to Google, is there a fear that creating a 'seo user friendly website page' could dilute link juice based on the high Google users. Any other useful advice would be welcome. Regards Mark0 -
Wordpress + Google Analytics = Pulling My Hair Out
Hey Mozzers, Quick question for you- I have analytics set-up for a personal site I run and I know, verifiably it's receiving traffic, however, whenever I access my Google Analytics dashboard, it says I've had zero visits. Interestingly, today I had a colleague check the site from a foreign country and I could see the page views (within 15 minutes), however, I could not get any information about the site viewer. I have verified that the Analytics profile is 'receiving data' (which it is) and my Google Webmaster Tools is not reporting any issues? Finally, I went ahead and updated my profile so that it is pulling from 'www.mydomain.com' instead of 'mydomain.com', I don't know if that'll make any difference, but likewise, I didn't want to go and create the 'little kid in the elevator' analogy, where I'm just pressing a bunch of buttons just because they're there. So the only changes I've made thus far were deactivating Yoast's SEO plug-in and manually placing the GA code in the header and updating the 'Website's URL' in the profile settings tab of GA from 'mydomain.com' to 'www.mydomain.com'. With that, I am stumped and praying another one of the esteemed Mozzers out there may be able to help me resolve this. Any thoughts?

Analytics/Google Keyword comparison
Hi I'm trying to establish a methodology to best show the gap between potential and realised organic keyword traffic. To obtain potential keyword traffic I'm using the Google Adwords keyword tool to derive local monthly search volumes for exact keyword matches. However, I'm confused as to which is the best way of getting a comparable metric from Google Analytics (GA). I was using custom reports and the 'organic searches' metric. However, this provides different values to a standard report selecting non-paid search in the default advanced segments. What is the best report/metric in GA to use for both organic and paid search volumes that would be comparable to the Google Adwords keyword tool. Also, I'm having problems getting my kids to eat their greens, any advice! 😉 Thanks Neil
