Is it possible to find out where traffic is coming from on someone else website?
I want to know where the new buyers are coming from who are interested in outsourcing. Attached are some of the pages they would be looking at.
Who are visiting these pages and where are they coming from:

The straight answer to this is NO! You cannot look in to analytics data and see who are visiting these pages and where are they coming from but yes you can always look in to their back link profile and see which websites are linking to those pages and guess accordingly.
Just a thought!

iStorm & David have nailed the answer, you should use a combination of semrush & similarweb. I also use moz to review backlinks - as many will be referrals.
So you have three to cross check. Similarweb gives you the "easy answer" however it should then be cross referenced with moz and semrush - to get a stronger understanding.
Leaving aside referrals similarweb - also has a display advertising function, which offers guidance.
-
Try semrush that will give you an idea of how much paid vs organic traffic they have
-
There are other tools out there that will give you some insights into competitor traffic as well.
SimilarWeb (www.similarweb.com) is a great one that will break down an estimate of traffic sources for a domain. They have quite a good supply of data, and I have found their estimates to be pretty accurate.
-
You cannot see there Analytical data but you can get a idea of their referral traffic from open site explorer and their organic keywords / landing pages by including them in your keyword research.

Something happened within the last 2 weeks on our WordPress-hosted site that created "duplicates" by counting www.company.com/example and company.com/example (without the 'www.') as separate pages. Any idea what could have happened, and how to fix it?
Our website is running through WordPress. We've been running Moz for over a month now. Only recently, within the past 2 weeks, have we been alerted to over 100 duplicate pages. It appears something happened that created a duplicate of every single page on our site; "www.company.com/example" and "company.com/example." Again, according to our MOZ, this is a recent issue. I'm almost certain that prior to a couple of weeks ago, there existed both forms of the URL that directed to the same page without be counting as a duplicate. Thanks for you help!

90% Traffic Drop...
Hey Moz Community Our team has been racking our collective brains about a 90% drop in traffic a niche client of ours has seen. The traffic drop occurred September 20th. The site averages 300-400 unique visits a month (very targeted & niche) & dropped to 30-40 uvm. The domain is on an exact match but other then that I can't see anything that would be deserving of such a significant drop in traffic. Our campaign had been performing very well & we were seeing steady gains in traffic & ranking over the long term until September 20th. I'm curious if the exact match update would have such a big impact months after it was released (July/July if I remember correctly). I also didn't think it could be such a big issue because that domain has been used by us for a couple years. Is the Exact Domain Match such a big deal? eJGe3Vw

Blocking some countries and redirecting that traffic
Hi there, I have a video site, which is on CDN and is really expensive to run. So I want to block most of the countries and only keep HQ ones. I wonder if there's a difference if I just block them and show blank page, or if I show them a page with text and let's say a link to a different site or if I just simply redirect to some other site. Do you think I can still get good ranking on google on countries that I don't block?
