Tool?
-
Hi mozzers,
I was wondering if theres anything out there that would crawl a site and sort your pages into the number of words they have?
-
Analyze Page, within the SEOmoz tool bar, offers an HTML text character count. This isn't scalable in the way you describe though. I also checked a desktop crawling tool that I use, Screaming Frog, but it doesn't provide that feature. Sorry.

I know that the Bing IIS SEO Toolkit will show you the content length of every page on the site. If you run a site analysis just go to Content >> Directory Summary and choose the relevant directory- you will see a column for content length next to each page. Just export to excel and you can sort in any order you want.
If your pages have a strange amount of code in them it won't be quite as accurate as you want though - it doesn't actually count the words as far as I know.

How long does it take for Webmaster Tools to index a site?
I submitted my client's site about a week ago. It had 138 links, it's still at 43 links. Should it be taking that long to index? Thanks! Luciana

Should I use the Google disavow tool?
Hi I'm a bit new to SEO and am looking for some guidance. Although there is no indication in Webmaster tools that my site is being penalised for bad links, I have noticed that I have over 200 spam links for "Pay Day Loans" pointing to my site. (This was due to a hack on my site several years ago). So my question is two fold. Firstly, is it normal to have spammy links pointing to your site and secondly, should I bother to do anything about it? I did some research into the Disavow tool in Webmaster tools wonder I should use it to block all these links. Thanks

Webmaster tools crawl stats
Hi I have a clients site that was having aprox 30 - 50 pages crawled regularly since site launch up until end of Jan. On the 21st Jan the crawled pages dropped significantly from this average to about 11 - 20 pages per day. This also coincided with a massive rankings drop on the 22nd which i thought was something to do with panda although it later turned out the hosts had changed the DNS and exactly a week after fixing it the rankings returned so i think that was the cause not panda. However i note that the crawl rate still hasn't returned to what it was/previous average and is still following the new average of 10-20 pages per day rather than the 30-50 pages per day. Does anyone have any ideas why this is ? I have since added a site map but hasnt increased crawl rate since A bit of further info if it helps in any way is that In the indexed status section says 48 pages ever crawled with 37 pages indexed. There are 48 pages on the site. The site map section says 37 submitted with 35 indexed. I would have thought that since dynamic site map would submit all urls Any clarity re the above much appreciated ? Cheers Dan

Web Master Tools: change of address
Hello, Hope you can help with an issue I'm having:www.brand-kw1-kw2.com (eg name of course) has moved to www.brand.comAll settings are done - like I did before when moving and setting up a new domain for an older site. (30q redirects - all versions are verified in WMT).However, when the change of adress features is "called out" I get the message: "We couldn't verify www.brand-kw1-kw2.com To submit a change of address, www.brand-kw1-kw2.com must be verified using the same method as brand-kw1-kw2.com. Add www.brand-kw1-kw2.com to your account and verify ownership, then try again." So dose it basically saying that I have to use the same method to verify both the www and non-www version ? Dose it make sense ? It sounds silly. Again, all version are verified and visibile in WMT already - I don't know how in the past those verifications were done but everything is looking good now. Is here a fix for this issue ? (I've moved several but this is the first issue I've encountered) Many thanks.

Google Webmaster Tools: Keywords
Hi SEOmozzers! I'm the Dr./owner/in-house SEO for my eye care practice. The URL is www.ofallonfamilyeyecare.com. Our practice is in O'Fallon, MO. Since I'm an optometrist, my main keywords are "optometrist o'fallon" and "o'fallon optometrist". As I get more familiarity with SEO, Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools, I've discovered the Keywords that Google feels best represent my website. About a week ago I noted Google counted 21 instances of "optometrist" on the 28-30 pages of my website, which ranks as #32 in the most common keywords. #1 is "eye" with 506 instances. Even though 21 occurrences seemed low, I went though every page adding "optometrist" a couple times in the body where it would naturally be appropriate. I also added it to the address shown on the footer of every page. I changed the top navigation option of "meet Dr. Hegyi" to "our optometrist". I must have added at least 4 occurrences to every page on my site, and submitted for a re-crawl. I even tried to scale back the "eye" occurrences on a few pages. Today I see that Google has re-crawled the site and the keywords have been updated. "Optometrist has DROPPED from #32 to #33. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions why I'm not seeing increased occurrence in Googles eyes? I realize this may not be a big factor in SERPs, but every bit of on-page optimization helps. Or is this too minor of an issue to sweat? Thanks!

Having some weird crawl issues in Google Webmaster Tools
I am having a large amount of errors in the not found section that are linked to old urls that haven't been used for 4 years. Some of the ulrs being linked to are not even in the structure that we used to use for urls. Never the less Google is saying they are now 404ing and there are hundreds of them. I know the best way to attack this is to 301 them, but I was wondering why all of these errors would be popping up. I cant find anything in the google index searching for the link in "" and in webmaster tools it shows unavailable as where these are being linked to from. Any help would be awesome!
