Import Keywords from 1 campaign to another

[Reena81]

Hi There,

I've got one campaign set up and just created another in my dashboard.

I have roughly 300 keywords added and categorized in campaign 1.

I want to export these exact keywords, (and to also remain categorized the same), into campaign 2.

How can I do this without having to add each keyword individually and recreating the categories again?

Basically, I want to export my keywords/copy/past from one campaign, to another.  I don't want to set everything up again.

How can I do this?

Thanks,

Reena.

It actually wasn't that bad.  There was no need to edit out any of the categories or add comma when you pasted in.  However, all the category information was lost.  Still want the "copy to another campaign" button.

Abe, please add this feature to the next update.  Kinda a no brainer to have it, and you don't.  Thank your for your recommendation, and I'm about to go do it, but I'm taking the time to write this post, and it should be entitledREALLY?

Hi,

Thanks for your response.  There is definitely no option to "copy to" and "edit".   When you select add/manage, there is only the option to "delete".

Can you some upload a screenshot of where these buttons are?

I have attached what I'm seeing.

(Also Abe's recommendation, means you have to manually set the categories again for each campaign, which we'd like to avoid doing).

Thanks,

Reena.

Abe,

Thank you for the reply.

So to save time for anyone else that needs to copy keywords between Campaigns, the short answer is:

There is no internal feature for this. You need to export your keywords then import back into a different campaign.

Hello Reena,

Happy Monday! This is Abe from the SEOmoz Help Team. While there are several ways to copy and paste the keywords over, I will give you my recommendation.

1- Open the keyword rankings page with all of your keywords that you would like to copy.

2-Click on Add/Manage keywords button

3-Drag over all of them and right click->copy

4- Paste the keywords stacked on top of each other in an excel sheet (repeat for each page of keywords)

5- Copy the entire column in excel with every keyword

6- Open new campaign that you want these keywords in

7-Go to Rankings and then Click Add/Manage Keywords button

8-Paste the keywords all at once into the Add Keywords to Your Campaign box

This will do it Let me know if you need anything else. I hope this helps!

Seems like this should be obvious... but it eludes me.

Please specifically tell me where to find these  "copy to" and "edit" buttons.

Kind of strange that several people keep asking the same simple question.

How do we copy keywords between campaigns?

Thanks.

Hi Webdeal,

Thanks for your response.  Although, I can't find the 'edit' button.   Could you let me know which page this is on?

Thanks,

Reena.

I'm looking for this functionality as well, but I don't see the "copy to...." function or "Edit" button anywhere.  Where exactly can I find those?

Thanks

Hi Reena,

there is an option there  "copy to..."  when you click "Edit"  button

Select all you keywords first, click Edit"  button, click on "copy to..." 
and select where do you want to copy them

Cheers
