SEOMOZ Crawler unicode bug
-
for the last couple of weeks the SEOMOZ crawls my homepage only and gets 4xx error for most of the URL's.
the crawler have no issues with English url's only with the unicode(Hebrew) ones.
this is what is see in the csv export for the crawl (one sample) :
http://www.funstuff.co.il/׳ž׳¡׳
׳‘׳×-׳¨׳•׳•׳§׳•׳× 404 text/html; charset=utf-8
you can see that the URL is Gibberish
please help.

Hey Asaf,
Thanks for writing in.
We have a known issue where Hebrew isn't parsed right by our crawler so it has caused issues in the past. The issues have been intermittent but they can affect the data you see. Sorry about that. Our engineers have been working to get a fix out there for the Hebrew character set, so stay tuned.
Best,

SEOmoz PRO: How to manage a Site with 2 languages on the same domain - without mixing up data?
I want to track a "rootdomain" that has two languages on it, the english version is in a subfolder /en/ 1. http://website.de
Moz Pro | | inlinear
2. http://website.de/en/ I want to manage and track each language-version isolated. So I will setup:
1. http://website.de as campaign DE - german
= as Root Domain
But as there are links to the /en/ Subfolder these data will also be included in all reports. And there is still no option in SEOmoz PRO to exclude folders or even urls.?! This will be bad when wanting a clear report of just one Language Version. 2. http://website.de/en as campaing EN - english
To track as "Subfolder" will not work beacause this option will only consider exactly this subfolder... So is there a way to see data just only for one language Version?0 -

Firefox Export to pdf Bug?
UPDATED: Okay, it works in Chrome, but not Firefox 13.0.1. In Chrome, a new page is loaded with the .pdf, but in Firefox the page is requested, i can see the keyword and the URL being passed to SEOmoz, but there doesn't seem to be any response and the page is neither reloaded or redirected. Nothing happens. I'm happy to use Chrome, but is this a bug for Firefox 13? Does anyone else experience the same lack of result in Firefox? Thank you, Michael I run an Onpage Analysis Report, and click the "Export to PDF" button. The page shows as connecting, but then when it stops, I'm still on the same page and cannot find the pdf in my inbox or in my downloads file. Where do I go to retrieve the pdf once it's generated? Thank you! Michael

Could SEOMOZ make a tool thats connected directly to Webmaster Tools?
Could SEOMOZ make a tool that Crawls Internal Links that's connected (or crawls) directly from Webmaster Tools? (So link metrics on our domains would get updates more often) This would eliminate the cost of crawling the entire internet. I hate having to wait a month to see updates on my domain metrics and links. I would like to see updates regularly on my own domain. I understand you can just look at Webmaster tools to see your latest links but they don't have any link metrics. So it’s difficult to see your best links. If this already exists please refer me? Otherwise please show your support for this being developed?

How to work round issue with SEOMOZ not supporting SSL?
I have a website that it running via SSL, to secure the website, to reassure the customer is browsing (and so will be purchasing) on a secure website, and to show off the green address bar which many of my competitors do not have. However in my campaign I am getting on Links showing, with my rank reporting '1', surely this cannot be! I asked a Help question, and the only response was: "Unfortunately, we don't currently support https for our linkscape crawls. This is definitely something that we plan to implement in the future though! I hope that helps and I apologize for any inconveniences!" This definately does not help.. Is there any way of working around this issue, or will I be forced to cancel my SEOMOZ membership?

I want to hire someone to write some PHP code using the SEOmoz API.
...but I'm not sure how to go about it. What I need is simple: all I want is to be able to paste a list of URLs (different domains), and have the program return the Page Authority for all those URLs. I understand I can use the free SEOmoz API, particularly the URL Metrics API. Then I want to export the data to an Excel file. That's it. Problem is, I have absolutely no clue how to do it. Obviously I'd pay someone to do it. Pay very well if you can do it professionally and quickly. How can I go about finding the right person for the job? Apologies if this is not the right place to ask this, but I don't know where else to go. Thanks.
