All in favor of an "Announcements" category section say MOZ!
-
So this is just a thought. I am not Rand, therefor I am not the Moz man himself, and therefor I am not telling anybody how to run this website or forum. But, I've been thinking... and usually that a dangerous thing. So many times when I answer a question I end it with:
- "Keep me posted"
- "Keep us updated"
- "Good Luck"
In the same light there have been plenty of times when I have had my questions answered by people like EGOL, RobertFIsher, KeriMorget and they have said that they have wanted me to keep them posted.
Now sure, some of you are sitting there being Melancholy Mozzers thinking that all those wonderful people are just being polite by adding some nice parting words... but what if I they are being Sincere Seoers? What if I WANT to fill them in and don't want to ask a question? What if... THEY REALLY LIKE ME?!?!
I could also send a DM to those 3 people, I mean let's get honest I'm not THAT popular.... but I can dream can't I?
Again, this isn't really an SEO question, more of a thought on where I'm supposed to give updates on my project. In all honesty I do want feedback on what I'm doing, and sometimes I don't even know what questions I'm supposed to ask!

Don't forget too that most of us who reply to questions also enable the ability to be notified by email anytime another reply is added. So even months later, if you update the question with a new response, most of the original participants will get a heads-up about your addition.

I would love it there was a project tracking feature!
Something where I can plug in any changes that were made things like that. Almost like Basecamp + Moz Yet something that I could share with the forum.
I will def keep that in mind and make sure I update my questions!
-
As Keri suggests, I think that it would be great to add an update to the original question.
We would like to hear if you tried anything and how it worked. That type of sharing is a way for everyone to learn - especially if you tried something that we suggested and it didn't work out.
I am glad that you are interested in doing this. So many people ask a question, we spend time to reply and they never even return to the post to disagree with us.

Yeah, I did notice that, I wasn't exactly sure as to how it functioned. Thank you for clarifying the timeline too!

Usually, the best place for an update is within the thread itself. Did you know that we have an "active" tab (which links to http://moz.com/community/q/active ) ? This will sort questions by most recent activity, so even if the question is six months old, if it has a new comment, you'll be able to see that come up on the home page of that tab.
Keeping the question updated within the question is great for people who come to the site a year down the road and wonder what happened in a particular situation, especially if they are not a Pro member and can't add a question to the thread.

In the Moz Site Crawl, what does "External Links" mean?
I thought I knew what it meant but am finding instances where the value in the column, "Linking Root Domains" is greater than the value in the column, "External Links?" Thanks!

Moz Content --- for SEO or simply user engagement?
What is the primary function of Moz Content? It looks like it is most useful for managing content as a user engagement tool. Our content strategy is centered on boosting organic placement - with user engagement as a nice but unessential side product. Besides providing general descriptive details of a site's content / authorship - how can Moz Content help with SEO?

Moz crawler only crawls one page?!
Hello there, I'm using Moz for a while and I'm very pleased with the tool and community. But for the first time I encountered a problem. We are trying to run a crawler for a client's website but only one page (only the homepage) was crawled. We tried to do a test on a more detailed level (maybe there is something wrong with the homepage). My campaign test's crawl came back for the Producten folder (level deeper than homepage), and it was also only a 1 page crawl with a 200 status. I did look at the robots.txt file now, and it is very restrictive, but there is nothing that I can clearly see that would explain why the crawl isn't working. Hopefully someone can point us at the right direction. Thanks in advance, Jeremy

MoZ vs Alexa & Moz vs Google
My colleague is continuously arguing with me why i went for Moz and why not for Alexa, He also says when Google is there then why Moz. I tried on my part to convince him but he has his own learning. Can anybody help me make him understand otherwise my job will become hard if he remains doubtful about Moz? Looking for down to earth and an honest feedback. Thanks Tanveer

Can the Moz tool identify variations of a Chinese language branded keyword?
We've recently started a trial of the Moz Pro service and are tracking a selection of keywords. Our primary band / product name is 功夫英语(Kungfu English), so we've set a rule that any keywords containing those four Chinese characters (功夫英语) should be marked as a branded keyword. However, in the "Non-Paid Keywords Sending Search Visits" section of our traffic report, we see a few variations on our brand name that are not being marked as branded keywords. (See attached Images). Based on our rules, shouldn't these variations also be marked as branded keywords without our needing to manually add them as such? Or have I misunderstood the intent of this rule? For the English text, the brand rule about words containing "kungfuenglish" seems to have resulted in all of "www.kungfuenglish.com", "http://www.kungfuenglish.com", and kungfuenglish being labelled as branded keywords. However, I'm not seeing the same sort of result with variations on the Chinese keyword, 功夫英语. KedTi1D.png z5bcUIt.png
