After running my first campaign, what should I tackle first?
-
I'm in the 30 day trial period of SEOMoz Pro. Ran my first campaign and there are many improvements to be had across the board. Looking for some sort of guidance as to what I should focus on first.

You're welcome Randy, am glad to have helped
The Pro Tools are excellent, the guide should help to get the most out of them. Work through it in whatever order seems logical and most apt for your site.

Exactly what I was looking for. The Pro User Guide was going to be my next question but you've beaten me to the punch. Thanks!

Hi Randy
I'd suggest checking out and working through the SEOmoz Pro User Guide, which can be found at http://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/20027997-campaign-set-up
As your campaign is already setup, start by looking at Crawl Diagnostics and addressing any issues there, then check out the Rankings Report to see how your SEO endeavours are doing (helps if you have visitor numbers as well from Google Analytics linked-up).
From there, look at your On-Page Reports, then your Link Analysis.
After you are comfortable that your site is in great shape, start looking at Competitor's sites strengths and weaknesses and your Off-Page SEO (the all important inbound links, which of course requires great content on your site to gain maximum benefit from this).
That should get you off to a great start.
Regards
Simon

There are a lot of different things you can focus on to improve your SEO results, Randy, and this is my personal preference as far as order:
- Keyword research - make sure you're optimizing for the right keywords that you can realistically rank well for
- On-page optimization - make the code and content changes necessary to improve your SEO results
- Off-page optimization - build those relationships and get those back-links that help the search engines see your site as an authority site
Use the SEOmoz Pro tools for each of those areas and I think you'll start seeing good results in your charts.
I hope that helps!

Campaign Crawl
I have a site with 8036 pages in my sitemap index. But the MozBot only Crawled 2169 pages. It's been several months and each week it crawls roughly the same number of pages. Any idea why I'm not getting fully crawled?

Issue with Data Updates on Campaign
I'm reviewing a campaign I am running for a client, the Keywords data has not updated yet even though it's supposed to update every monday. The competitive analysis shows a date of August 14, which is odd becuase I'm on a trial account?

Can I combine SEOmoz Campaigns.
Basically I am in internal SEO. We subscribe to SEOmoz and we have 5 campaign spots. each with their own allocation of keywords. Ideally I only want to track our site and not 4 other's. I've currently setup the campaign a couple of times with different keywords, but it would be much better if I could choose what allocates to what. I.e. 2 campaign tokens to one site and 3 to another or just 5 to one site. Is this possible, and if not why not?

Same keywords in 3 campaigns being counted against total kws.
I have the same kw sets across 3 campaigns but are being counted against the 300 total count. Shouldn't they only count once? Thx!

Campaign Reports Question
Hello everyone. I'm new to SEOMOZ and sort of a beginner with this SEO stuff but this does seem like the place to be to learn things. I spent quite a bit of time reading the blogs and found them very helpful - including everyone's comments. I'm not sure what to make of a couple of my campaign reports. I'm going through my campaign reports and have a few questions. I guess the easy way is to break this down. Question 1: Crawl Errors: I"m getting duplicate content/page errors for the following pages. http://www.njsigncrafters.com and http://www.njsigncrafters.com/index.php Am I losing a bit of google points because of this and do I fix it by using a redirect? Question 2: When I look at my on-page analysis I'm getting grades of A-F. I'm figuring maybe I should have some recommendations about what to do but SEOMOZ gives me a grade and then leaves it at that. Besides reviewing my on-page factors am I missing something simple that I"m supposed to click on to see recommendations? I suppose once I get used to the way things work I'll get this SEOMOZ site figured out.

Creating a campaign for a folder is not possible
Hi There! I just signed up for a free pro account to see whether it is something for us as a company 🙂 I tried to set up two campaigns. With the first for our root domain (koopgoedkoop.nl) it all went perfect. I am now trying to set up a campaign for our BBQ page (http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues.html) but I can't? Is it because our URL ends with .html? Here's a screenshot: http://bit.ly/x2zdCd Thanks for your help in advance! Regards, Do

How long does it take for a campaign website crawl to be completed?
Our campaign website crawl has been 'crawling' now for 5 days. Is this a normal phenomenon or is something hanging up?
