Recommended Q&A Software
-
So I just read an SEOMoz post about the great SEO benefits of Question and Answer sites (or sections of sites) - much like the Q&A section I'm in right now.
I did some googling and haven't really found a good software for implementing (installing, skinning, integrating, etc.) a Q&A section on my website. There are a few out there, but they are pretty basic, nothing like this site or Yahoo Answers.
Anyone know of good software (i'm on a PHP server) to implement Q&A on my site? Something that has the look and feel of this site or answers.yahoo.com, etc.?
Thanks for the help!

Thanks Ryan,
I've heard of drupal but never dealt with it - do you have any idea what software runs SEOmoz's Q&A or, for example, this site: http://www.incorporationanswers.org/ ?
Thanks again

There is a drupal distribution that does this: http://drupal.org/project/drupalanswers

Is it me or is SEOMOZ Q&A slow
I try and answer many questions here on SEOMoz Q&A, but the page load speed seems so slow I think my browser is going to time out. I don't remember it being this slow. Anybody else noticing slow loading (especially when asking, answering, or replying to questions)?

What software can I use on my Mac to open and read a SEOMoz CSV exported file?
I do not want to buy XL or Pages just to read the CSV from SEOMoz. So I bought an app on the AppStore... and this app is unable to read the CSV from SEOMoz. Since I already wasted $2, Id rather avoid to waste more (and avoid that to others too!). What software is recomanded to open these CSV files? Also, I tried Google Docs, but I bumped in their 400K cells limit 😞

Need assistance with tool development using SEOMoz & Google APIs
I don't know where the right place to ask this is, but I work for an SEO agency, and we are looking for someone to help us with development of some tools utilizing the SEOMoz API and probably the Google API as well. Does anyone know where I could find a person with some previous experience with development using these APIs? We've had poor luck just trying to use a developer without specific experience in this area or at least some SEO knowledge. If you're a developer and would like to talk with us, you can contact me directly if you prefer, rather than post your contact info publicly, but I welcome any helpful thoughts or ideas regarding development of SEO tools. Thanks,

A Simple(ish) Q&A Improvement
Hey Roger, In the posting etiquette it states that users should 'find out if someone has already posted your question before adding it' but we all know that is never really going to happen. So, we tend to see the same questions asked again and again when there are already top class answers in the Q&A. So, could you not implement some kind of suggested answer system? So, user posts a question, you analyse it, list potential answers that may provide the answer based on the content of the question itself. If nothing matches, the user can then go on to post the question but in many cases, they would get a top notch answer instantly. I have seen this on other sites and it would certainly cut down on the amount of duplicated questions and the suggested answers could all be hand picked to some extent (good answers, lots of thumbs up etc). So, the Q&A would have less duplication and users would get directed to the best possible answers for a given question in a shorter time frame. Good for those that do the answering, good for the people who have questions - everyone is happy. Just a thought, my tuppence, 5 cents, etc. 🙂 Marcus

Anyway to Verify MozRank & MozTrust Scores w/alternate method?
Hey everyone, I am wondering if there is a way to confirm or reinforce what am i seeing on a webpage using the Moz Toolbar? When I go to this website here: abilogic.com they have a high page/domain trust rank. However, when I filter down to the niche category I would be interested in submitting too abilogic.com/dir/Home/Gardens/ - Then everything, including PageRank, drops to zero. The question I have, is I am not sure if this is really just a poorly constructed and untrustworthy page as identified in the Moz Toolbar. Or is it possible that these page categories have recently been redeveloped or something like that, and that's why the deeper pages are not showing any benefits? Thanks for any help or tips!
