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)Â 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

This why I am here for
Good luck!
(Check for those duplicates too, it can cause you some trouble if not eliminated)
-
Alright, will do. Thank you for your time!!

Hmm... I will tell you a less good news... There you are creating duplicate content, because it is not a redirect and you don't have a canonical neither.
Regarding the original question... I would address the helpteam regarding this one, because they can tell you in details if Roger-bot will crawl your data (as you have requested) or not. you can contact them at help@seomoz.org

Will using "http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues/" do the job, even when the link doesn't work? (when you go to that link, you are redirected to the home). Or should our IT department first fix that the links work without the .html?
(Thank you for your patience :))

It can happen to anyone.So first of all, with question like this you can always go to the help team, they will be more than happy to help you out and can help you step-by-step to resolve issues.
Secondary, I am happy you came to the community, because we are here to help:
I would advice you to target the /garden/ sub-folder or the http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues/
This way you will provide Roger a sub-folder and not a single page
So instead of adding the url: http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues.html try using http://www.koopgoedkoop.nl/tuin/barbecues/
It should do the job.

I feel really, really stupid but I have no idea what you mean with sub-folder and one page (sorry, rather new to SEO AND blonde ;-)). The page I am linking to is our BBQ category page. Is that not possible?
-
Hey Do,
You are trying to target one page and not one sub-folder, this is causing the error which Roger "detected".

Istvan

HTTPS Move and Moz Campaign
We moved our site over to HTTPS this week and I was wondering if I need to create a new Moz campaign? I'm aware you can't change a website address in an existing Moz campaign, however the website listed in the current campaign contains no http//www. and seems to only be entered as example.com. Anyone have a suggestion for this?

What's the best way to switch a campaign from sub-domain tracking to root domain tracking?
I realized after the fact that one of my campaigns also has a mobile website sub-domain that I'd like to track (ex: http://m.website.com). How can I switch this campaign over to root domain tracking without deleting everything and starting over?

Is there a way to perform a crawl diagnostics without creating a campaign?
If you wanted to perform a crawl diagnostics but your campaigns are at full capacity are you able to do this and how (or does this mean you will have to remove one campaign to make space for another)?

UK and GB when selecting targeted engines in campaign management
HI Anyone know the difference between selecting UK or GB when choosing your engines to track keyword rankings? Is it that one of the options only includes pages from the UK while the other tracks all pages, but from a UK rankings point of view - ie pages hosted overseas will still rank. - if so, which is which? Or, and this is very unlikely, is it simply that the GB data does not include Northern Ireland as the UK is technically the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. NI is in UK but not in GB. Nice and confusing! Thanks

Campaign 4XX error gives duplicate page URL
I ran the report for my site and had many more 4xx errors than I've had in the past month. I updated my .htaccess to include 301 statements based on Google Webmaster Tools Crawl Errors. Google has been reporting a positive downward trend in my errors, but my SEOmoz campaign has shown a dramatic increase in the 4xx pages. Here is an example of an 4xx URL page: http://www.maximphotostudio.net/engagements/266/inniswood_park_engagements/http:%2F%2Fwww.maximphotostudio.net%2Fengagements%2F266%2Finniswood_park_engagements%2F This is strange because URL: http://www.maximphotostudio.net/engagements/266/inniswood_park_engagements/ is valid and works great, but then there is a duplicate entry with %2F representing forward slashes and 2 http statements in each link. What is the reason for this?

Can I do a campaign for just a page?
We've been doing a lot of building and work on just  one category page, but when i try to put it in the campaign it won't let me do any url that has a sub folder like  www.mainsite.com/keyword-page. I can only do www.mainsite.com, and when i select the other campaign options like root domain or sub folder, roger pops up with an error. Is anyone else having this problem?
