API Limit
-
I have some problems with API Access. All time i send more than 10 requests per second i got HttpError() {\n "status" : "503",\n "error_message" : "This request exceeds the limit allowed by your current plan. To increase your request limit, see: http://www.seomoz.org/api/pricing"\n}.
My Plan is Low Volume and continually got this 503 error. How to solve this?

Hi Walter,
Thanks for writing in and sorry for any confusion.
It looks like you actually have the PRO level API access and there is no Low Volume subscription on your account. For the PRO level API, the account is actually rate limited at 1 request ever 5 seconds and it does look like you are getting the correct access for that plan level on your account.
If you would like to sign up for the Low Volume API subscription, you can fill out our Order Form at http://goo.gl/BTbyy and we will get you set up right away.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Is there any way to get historical API data?
I'm looking for a way of requesting domain authority and some other stats via the API for several previous months. I noticed on here: http://apiwiki.seomoz.org/what-is-the-mozscape-api

It says "SEOmoz PRO members now have access to historical API linking data - read about this great new feature on our blog!" but i could not find this blog post anywhere and maybe I'm misreading this line anyway.0 -

What's the future of SERP Tracking? And... Is SEOMoz's SERP Rank Tracking in compliance with Google Adwords API Terms of Service?
My question is: Is SEOMoz's SERP Rank Tracking in compliance with Google Adwords API Terms of Service? Background: The reason I ask is because Raven Tools is now removing their SERP Reporting tool because it uses scraped Google position data. So, it looks like SEO's will either have to find a new rank tracking tool or find new ways to traffic the effects that rankings have on a website traffic volumes. For instance, there is a way to get the position a search results was in Google when it was clicked. We could create a secondary profile in Google Analytics for each client and use a custom filter to record the position that the keywords was in when the search result was clicked ( http://www.seomoz.org/blog/show-keyword-position-using-filters-and-advanced-segments ) Or perhaps we'll have to use Google Webmaster Tools' SEO Report to get data somehow ( http://support.google.com/analytics/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1308626 ) What are your thoughts on this? As you know, ranking data is still a great way to show clients if they are gaining or losing visibility in the search engines. It helps SEO's to report how effective their efforts have been. Because other ranking software companies uses Adwords API data to show the keyword search volume and advertiser competition of a keyword, they can not or eventually will not be able to use scraped ranking data any more. But, if another rank tracking tool out there doesn't need to be in compliance with the Adwords API TOS because they don't use that API to show search volume and advertiser competition, they can still technically provide their ranking data and not be violating any TOS, right? I'm just trying to understand the best way to continue reporting impact of organic keyword rankings on a website. Does the SEOMoz SERP Tracker comply with Adwords API? Is there another rank tracking tool out there that already is using Average Position data from the GWT SEO Report tool? Should we all just stop reporting rankings to clients altogether? Scott

Learn SEOmoz API (and more)?
I'm sorry for this very basic question. The reason why I'm asking is that I wan't to start to use SEOmoz API (and later on Majestic SEO etc.) I have search on the web about API in general, SEOmoz specifically, in Q&A and asked around but:
Moz Pro | | OscarSE
I really can't get my head around what "set of skills" I need to know to be able use the SEOmoz API? And other APIs for that reason. Do I need a programming skills, or just knowledge how each specific API works(+ common sense)? Or both? I'm sorry if this is off topic but the main reason why I'm asking is that I wan't to start to use the SEOmoz API. If you could provide a link or two about where I can start to learn about how this works, I would really appreciate that!0 -

Linkscape API having bugs
Hi, We are using the SEOMOZ Linkscape API (url-metrics and links) but the the API is not working well. We are sometimes (without any proveable reason) getting an http error with code 401. Like I said earlier it happens sometimes really often and sometimes just once. What could be the reason for this? We have an account with the following login seo@traffic-builders.com. Thanks in advance!
