Moz crawl
-
Hi,
1. Is there any way to get the moz crawl to analyse any site like the website auditor tool in seo powersuite on command. It would be good to see what keyword my competitors are using. would also like to analyse my site when i have corrected errors on command.
2. Is google adwords keyword tool still the best keyword research tool? I Don't see anything in the newbie guides to the moz pro tool regarding keyword research.
Thanks!
David.

Hi Chris,
Just read screaming frog is good for 500 urls and then you have to pay, I thought it was too good to be true!

I love Screaming frog its a really handy tool you can also look out in case they left meta keywords in, you can also use tools that pick out keyword density on sites for another indicator.

Thanks Chris!
Just after i wrote question 1, I thought of using the screaming frog tool, I guess the title of the page is a strong enough indication?
Thanks for the links to the guides, and tools It get's a bit overwhelming sometimes it's hard to know where to start!

Hi David,
There is no direct way to see what competitors keywords are but you can use Moz to help work out some sites etc. they may be using see below for some ideas.
1. Here are some good tools if you're a pro subscriber and if not you can still use OSE.
http://moz.com/labs/link-finder
http://moz.com/labs/link-acquisition
and not forgetting the "link opportunities" tab of the open site explorer
It's one of the better one's but you can also research keywords in other ways e.g. seeing what "other users" have searched for at the bottom of the page etc. One great thing you can do in Adwords is (which links to point one) put a competitor's landing page when looking for keyword opportunities There is also a whole blog category if you wanted a look in Moz - http://moz.com/blog/category/keyword-research
Hope that helps a bit, I'm sure some other Moz fans will give some excellent advice too.

A Bazaar 10 Days In WMT & Moz
Hey All, Just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything like this or has any idea what happen to one of my sites last week. I have a lot of question and unanswered weirdness that seems to be occurring in the data. It kind of plays out like this. Noticeable drop off in organic SE traffic WMT kicks out 70% of my structured schema data Moz drops DA to 14 from 17 Moz MR drops from 3.50 to 2.74 Total Indexed pages (as per SEOQuake tool bar) Drops from 500 to 224 All the images submitted via a sitemap have been unindexed according to WMT. This only a 3 month old web site with a minimal back linking profile, we're talking less than 100. No one has been working on the site, the only thing that has happen in the last month is blog post being posted. All unique content and well formatted. Then at the beginning of this week I saw traffic increasing again, and this was confirmed when WMT updated and I got my Moz update. All schema data back in WMT, with no acknowledgement of the drop; the graph just continues in a steady rise as tho nothing happened. Traffic back up to normal levels, as tho nothing happened. I have noticed a 100% increase in the amount of pages being blocked by robots.txt, I haven't changed it, nor has anyone else, it has been the same since the site was launched. I'm hoping that Moz will put the DA and MR back to where they were, and no damage will be done.\ But my question is, What the hell happened? It nearly wiped the site of the face off the earth for 10 days, how do I find out what did it, why and stop it from happening again? I have noticed the number of pages indexed by google, as quoted by SEOquake tool bar not WMT regularly jumps from anywhere from 200 to 500, Any ideas? I know their are many different elements at play here, where do I start, I can't sit back and hop it never happens again. Thank you to anyone that wants to roll their sleeves up and have ago at this one. Best, IAn

301 redirected Duplicate Content, still showing up as duplicate after new crawl.
We launched a site where key landing pages were not showing up in google. After running the seomoz crawl it returned a lot of duplicate pages which may expalin this. The actual url of the page is /design and it was telling me the following were dupes: /design/family-garden-design
On-Page Optimization | | iterate
/design/small-garden-design
/design/large-rural-garden-design
/Design All of these URL's were in fact pointing to the /design landing page. I 301 redirected all of the pages so they all now resolve to /design After running another crawl the day after doing this it's still showing up as duplicate content on seomoz. Does seomoz evaluate the new changes right away?0 -
Reducing number crawl-able links?
Hello, I just like to ask for best practice when it comes to reduce number of internal links on a site with a mega menu. Since the mega menu lists all categories and all their subcategories it creates a problem when all categories are linking to all categories directly.. Would the method below reduce the number of links and preventing the link juice flowing directly from category to category? [(link built with JavaScript and the html5 "data-" attribute) Thinking of using these links to categories in the menu not directly below the parent category.](#)

Error is not going away and crawling
I have fixed an error but its still showing in red as error. Im totally new to SeoMoz and to SEO in general so im not sure how this tool works. Did I fix it correctly or not if its still showing? It was a broken link and now it links up to another page. Do I just have to wait? My website only has 8 pages and on the dashboard it says crawled 8 pages but it takes up to a week for a full crawl? Im really confused. Thank you in advanced!
