Creating a campaign and connecting it to Google Analytics
-
I want to create three campaigns in Moz and connect them to my Google Analytics account. However, two of the domains I am trying to create campaigns for are joined in Google Analytics. Do I need to separate the two in Google in order to create separate campaigns for each in Moz?

Hi Erik,
Thanks for writing in. Can you clarify a bit on how you have the profile set up? Do you track the same UA code on both domains, as with this method: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1034342?hl=en? If so, we aren't able to break out the data into the separate domains and we can only track the traffic data based on actual code and we don't see the domains associated with the code to be able to break the data out.
In order to track domain specific information, each domain would have to have its own UA code in order for us to provide domain specific information through our connection to your GA account.
I hope this clears things up. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Not sure why the 2 domains are linked in GA.
Although it's not ideal to have 2 lots of GA code on sites, it may be worth doing so that you have separate data for each domain, although it depends why you linked them in the first place. You can then link them to your Moz campaign.
I would keep the old GA code on the site to get the historical data.

It won't be necessary for Moz itself to separate your Google Analytics accounts to create the campaigns like that as you can just use these profiles in both the two campaigns you want to create. However it would maybe a good idea to separate them to in your GA account. But that's your choice of course!

Why are the rankings of my keywords different to rankings from other programmes such as 'Access my Lan' and 'Firefly'? Does SEOMoz count 'Google Places and Maps' in their rank count? Im thinking this could explain the difference

How seomoz sets the country for google to monitor my rankings?
In some of my campaign settings I use specific country for search engine (e.g. "Google Slovakia"). Some times I check the rankings manually too. My process for this: 1. Open a new Chrome incognito window (be sure that that's the only open incognito window) 2. go to google.sk, type in the keyword 3. at the bottom of the page select advanced search, select language: slovak, resubmit the query That's it. With my process, the monitored keywords are not there were seomoz reports them. So the question: with what settings (domain, language anything else) seomoz is tracking the rankings in country specific search engines?

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 Manager Keyword Rankings all messed up???
My campaign in SEO Moz Campaign Manager has just ran it's weekly crawl, and all my keyword rankings are messed up. 18 keywords have apparently dropped by massive amounts, but when I do a physical search, they haven't moved. Also Keyword Tracker agrees with the physical search, so why is the Campaign Manager showing the wrong rankings all of a sudden??

About the rankings report in the Pro Dashboard, does it track the ranking of every page on a root domain, or just the home page or whichever page you set up the campaign with?
I noticed that one of the pages on my root domain has a #5 rank for a keyword, yet the ranking report says that there are no results in the top 50. So I am assuming it is only tracking the home page. That is one thing I liked about the Rank Tracker, that it would find any page that was ranking on a root domain. Thanks, Lara
