Are there errors in your PRO reports lately?
-
Working with a new client with large websites. On the competitive domain analysis the numbers for my client and 3 competitors was
48 | 52, 51, 55
For 2 whole weeks it jumped to
68 | 48, 43, 51
and there were some really odd supporting numbers such as total links moving from 107K originally to 806K.
Just today, the numbers have reverted to the previous numbers.
I am relatively new to moz and like the reports, but this is very unnerving.
Is there an explanation? Anyone else seeing this?
Added: Aargh. The numbers just jumped back to the previous high numbers. Help.

Hi Mike, I guess the numbers you are seeing are the authority metrics for your site and the competition, although these should not change so drastically, one explanation would be the discovery of new links by RogerMozbot (107k to 806k) and the lost of links from your competition, it could be that those are the actual numbers now and that the information on your campaign is just finishing its update (new campaign maybe?), anyway cases like this are directly related to the tool, so I would advice you to open a help ticket and ask them http://seomoz.zendesk.com/home
Also, check the links from OSE, and compare to the links in Google, Yahoo and Bing, to see where those new links are coming from.
Hope that helps.

Since July 1, we've had a HUGE jump in errors on our weekly crawl. We don't think anything has changed on our website. Has MOZ changed something that would account for a large leap in duplicate content and duplicate title errors?
Our error report went from 1,900 to 18,000 in one swoop, starting right around the first of July. The errors are duplicate content and duplicate title, as if it does not see our 301 redirects. Any insights?

Why does SEO MOZ Pro scan your competitors keyword rankings?
I find the keyword rankings feature of SEOmoz Pro probably it's most useful feature. I was wondering why you can't see your listed competitors stats in comparison?

What does this error mean when starting a new campaign
hi just about to start a new campaign to i can monitor my website and i get this message up but not sure what this means. Roger has detected a problem: We have detected that the domain www.headlineplus.com and the domain headlineplus.com both respond to web requests and do not redirect. Having two "twin" domains that both resolve forces them to battle for SERP positions, making your SEO efforts less effective. We suggest redirecting one, then entering the other here. can anyone please let me know why this message comes up please

How does the PRO Q&A forum work?
OK, so the SEOMoz PRO Q&A forum is officially awesome since the redesign. It works amazingly well guys - thanks for a great resource! I'm wondering, what technologies have you used to make it work so well? Is the Q&A forum totally custom, or does it run on top of another 3rd-party / open source / web app structure? We're thinking about doing something similar for our business (not in the SEO space, so don't worry 😉
