Top Pages metrics in OSE
-
Not sure if this is an API question or a feature request, but wondering if other folks had a way to do this:
In OSE there is the dashboard for a specific URL that is entered into the search bar, giving you metrics at a glance on it.
But I often find myself going to the Top Pages tab to get a sense of the domain as a whole.
First off, wouldn't it be nice/is there a way to build my own "dashboard" based on info from that section?
Specifically, I'd love to see at a glance the number of "top pages" that exist (many websites are well under the 10,000 page limit for this section, but there's no quick glance metric showing that)
One thing that would be very handy for me would be a breakdown of HTTP Status info across the whole domain, as being able to see the raw total of different statuses (and the percentages of each based on the total number of pages) would be really helpful, giving me a sense if I should dig into any issues before exporting the list to CSV.
I've found myself needing this type of info for multiple domains at once, so what would be REALLY cool would be a Google Doc where I could paste in different domains in one column, and this info being returned in other columns.
I've searched through the Q&A and didn't find anything like this, and I didn't know how easy/hard any of this would be to do, but I was wondering if anyone else had a sense of how to solve this problem and how feasible it would be to tackle it.
Thanks!

Hey Joel,
Thanks for the feedback on this and the links, while I'm not a coder, I'll definitely dig into the apps already made!
Appreciate the response!

Hey John,
Thanks for the question. You'll probably want to spend some time reading up on the API:
http://apiwiki.moz.comYou can also see some of the different tools already made for the Mozscape API:
http://apiwiki.moz.com/gallery/appsIn theory you should be able to put something like this together with the right coding know-how. It's just not something we can assist with too much as it's kind of beyond the scope of the typical support we provide.
Thanks! I look forward to seeing what you put together.
Cheers,
Joel.

What does "ffspl" mean in a url-metrics result set?
So I've got this server-side JScript object I've declared which works nicely for us. var mozObj = new MozInteraction()
API | | StevePoul
.setMethod("GET")
.setHost("http://lsapi.seomoz.com")
.setPath("linkscape/url-metrics")
.setCols(parseInt("11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111", 2))
.setLines(10)
.setAccessId(accessId)
.setSecret(secret)
.setExpires((new Date()).addDays(1).valueOf())
.generateSignature(); etc etc The setCols call sets the Cols value to the maximum possible: 9007199254740991. The weird thing is that in the JSON response I get a whole pile of column names that I can't find descriptions for in the documentation at https://moz.com/help/links-api/making-calls/response-fields e.g. ffspl1 ffspl2 ffspl3 ... fuspl0 fuspl1 fuspl2 fuspl3 ... pfspl0 pfspl1 pfspl2 pfspl3 ... puspl0 puspl1 puspl2 puspl3... etc1 -
Number of Pages Crawled dropped significantly
Number of total pages crawled on the latest report is about half the number from one week ago. No major changes to the site. Number of issues also dropped (not surprisingly). Why has the number dropped so significantly from week to week?

And are the issues actually cleared up, or just not counted because the crawl is so much smaller?0 -
Sitemaps and Indexed Pages
Hi guys, I created an XML sitemap and submitted it for my client last month. Now the developer of the site has also been messing around with a few things. I've noticed on my Moz site crawl that indexed pages have dropped significantly. Before I put my foot in it, I need to figure out if submitting the sitemap has caused this.. can a sitemap reduce the pages indexed? Thanks David.

Frequency of Moz page authority updates?
I have some new pages on my site, and Moz gives them a very low PA ranking. I am wondering if these scores are updated monthly or quarterly? I'm not sure how frequently to check back for updated scoring.

How do batched URL metrics work in terms of rows and rate limit?
I am using the free API plan to get URL metrics and batching my calls like this: https://github.com/seomoz/SEOmozAPISamples/blob/master/php/batching_urls_sample.php How does this work in terms of rows and limits? If I do a batch of 10 urls does it count as 1 row? or 10? Do I have to wait 10 seconds before calling the next batch?

Is Url-Metrics Historical data available via API?

Does Moz's crawlers use _escaped_fragment_ to inspect pages on a single-page application?
I just got started, but got a 902 error code on some pages, with a message saying there might be an outage on my site. That's certainly not the case, so I'm wondering if the crawlers actually respect and use the escaped_fragment query parameter. Thanks, David.
