SEO Campaign for testing site?
-
We are in the process of a website redesign and have initiated an SEO campaign on the current site to set benchmarks. Does it make sense for us to run a separate SEO campaign on the testing site as well?

Hello!
If the site is live and reachable without a username/password, it wouldn't hurt to have crawl reports to make sure it will be free of any broken links and factors like title and meta descriptions are still visible.
Hope this helps

Crawl test
I used to use the crawl test tool to crawl websites and it presented the information in a really useful hierarchy of pages. The new on-demand crawl test doesn't seem to do this. Is there another tool I should be using to get the data?

Crawl still in process for 3 days. Not sure why the site isn't being crawled
I added a new site to the crawl, but it seems to be stalled. It was supposed to crawl Feb 19, but it is still in process Feb 22. It tried to crawl the site and there was a robots.txt issue, but that issue was resolved way before the 19th. Not sure what is going on. this is for the clear lake campaign.

Can I retrieve a deleted campaign?
Is there any way for me to retrieve a deleted campaign (it is not listed in my 'Archived Campaigns')? If this is not possible, am I able to set up a new campaign to retrieve the historical data lost from the one that was deleted? Thank you

On page SEO Report Sucks
Hey. I'm trying to get a PDF of the on page report so I can see a list of each issue. This works well if you're logged in and just navigate through the different tabs, but not so well if you export. All I get is an overview of the number of the priority issues, but not the URLs and the specific problems. I know you can export a CVS, but that's not a very good branded way to export this. What I'd like to do is export a report that is fairly gainular so I can provide "before and after" reports for work we completed. As is stands now, I have an overview PDF which sucks and can't provide any more details or a CVS which has all the details in the world, but is so in depth it's hard to navigate, especially for clients who don't know what they're looking at, not to mention it's not branded!!! There should be way more options for reporting here. Please let me know if you can do something about this or if I'm just missing something. Thanks. Micha

I can't activate a campaign...
I have about 12 campaigns in my account. One of them has disappeared. If I deactivate every campaign I have, the dashboard still says that I have one campaign active. Yes, I know which campaign is active-- it's the missing one. The only evidence I have that the missing campaign is still "there" is the one active campaign that remains open, but not displayed anywhere. Yes, I am absolutely sure I didn't delete it. But that's only my first problem. So now that all of my campaigns are visually archived, I can go in and activate them one at a time, and that works. Except for one campaign. I have one campaign that simply will not allow me to activate. It does not give me an error message when I click activate. I just get the jquery "waiting" animation and then...nothing. This is kind of urgent and I emailed moz during normal business hours with no response yet.
