Can you change the websites in your PRO Dashboard?
-
Hello,
I set a client's website in one of my 5 campaigns in my Pro Dashboard. But my client changed his domain. I don't see an option to change the domain server in the Campaign settings.
Is it possible?
-
Interesting. Keep us posted, will you Eblan? I'm curious to know how this works out.

I really hope I'm wrong & Jesse's right, but as I say - not how it's worked for me. I think you're safest to do both and cover your bases as you say. Worst case, all works as you hope and you can just delete the campaign I suggested.
I'm sure I saw a similar question which the Moz staff responded to saying the domain redirect wouldn't work, but haven't' been able o find it for you.
Good luck!
Paul

I will try this for sure once I have no campaigns left. Thank you very much for your time Nakul.

Thanks a lot Paul,
I guess I will do both. Just want to try Jesse's idea and verify it if I can. As usual, your info is of great help. I think I should set up the new campaign ASAP like you suggested, it is better for me and my client. Can't risk all the valuable info to get wasted.
Cheers!

Unfortunately, in my experience it's not going to work the way you hope (and assume), Eblan. Even with the redirects in place, it hasn't worked that way for me.
For example a clients site was domain.ca and they switched to domain.com. The campaign no longer collects data for the on-page reports for the original domain.
My advice would be, if you have any campaign slots left, create a new campaign for the new domain right away, so it can begin collecting data as soon as possible. Then if the old campaign drops out as I suspect, you'll have the new one up and running with as little lost data as possible (You can copy/paste keyword lists etc across from campaign to campaign).
The old campaign can be archived to free up another slot when you need it, but still keep the data available for future reference if you need to go back to it. That is to say, don't delete the old campaign, but archive it instead.
And if it turns out I'm wrong and the redirects work for you, you can just nuke the recently created campaign and get a free slot back.

No new info yet. I guess i'll wait for the next crawl this thursday. What you say makes a lot of sense though.
thanks Jesse!

You might want to email help@seomoz.org with your campaign old domain and new domain and they "might" be able to help.

I don't see why not. Roger should follow your redirects just like any bot would. I'm assuming your campaign is still reporting normal stats? OSE working with the old domain, advising that it's redirecting?
-
The site is completely redirected to the new domain. Does this mean I can keep my current campaign? would be nice.
-
As far as I know, you will have to delete the campaign and start over. But I must ask.. did your client not redirect the domain?

Potential spam websites with high DA linking back to us
Hey everybody, I'm going through all my sites and disavowing crap links. However, I'm having trouble distinguishing which high DA sites to disavow. What would you do? For example:
Moz Pro | | MEllsworth
https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/spam-analysis?site=busca.starmedia.com&target=domain&source=subdomain&page=1&sort=spam_score and https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/spam-analysis?site=cc879fe.activerain.com&target=domain&source=subdomain&page=1&sort=spam_score They both have tons of backlinks - both good and crap. The first has a DA of 72 and a Moz spam score of 4/17 and the second has a DA of 86 and a Moz spam score of 9/171 -
How you can manipulate your MOZ DA
I have become frustrated at MOZ in the last few months, none of my backlinks have made it into the index. Old back links. Long story short, I figured out the issue and I figured out how anyone can manipulate their DA. I wrote a blog post about it here, http://blog.dh42.com/manipulate-moz/

Is there any way to change the domain in a campaign here?
When I started the campaign I used site.com but now I have an external blog at blog.site.com and is hosted on tumblr. This site gets lots of errors showing on the campaign because insists on following no-follows. If I change the campaign to www.site.com then blog.site.com will not be part of the campaign. It does say in the help that it will NOT track sub-domains, but it does and hence my problem. So, I am not sure if the rest of the info there is old. 'Does the Web App track the subdomains of my campaign’s domain?
Moz Pro | | oznappies
A. Unfortunately we do not currently track subdomains as a part of the
domain you enter. Instead, you must create another campaign slot for any
subdomains you wish to track.' Any ideas on where or how to do this?0 -
Website migration
hi, I have to "refurbish" a website from scratch. This domain is quite old (2004) and has got a good audience. 1/ Is there a tip or a tool to guess with witch kind of framework (cms) is it made from ? I mean drupal, joomla, ezpublish, wordpress ..as i can't see it from code source. 2/ Have you got any method to migrate the old database (seems to be iis with asp language) into a new one (i work with php mysql) ? 3/ In order not to loose rankings in Serp, is there a tool to list the main urls with best link juice ? I will then redirect them with a 301 redirection in an .htaccess file. Many thanks..
