Can SEOMoz crawl a single page as oppose to an entire subfolder?
-
I would like the following page to be crawled:
http://www.ob.org/_programs/water/water_index.asp
Instead, SEOMoz changes the page to the following subfolder which is an invalid url:
-
Yes. I think that will solve your problem.

Collin,
The address:
http://www.ob.org/_programs/water/
is an invalid link that does not exist - it's something that SEOMoz created, assuming that the valid link, which is a single page, is under that subfolder. So what you suggest is creating a redirect from the invalid link to the single page, correct?
-
By Resolve, I mean that the URL in question actually needs to end up showing the user content and not be a blocked page.
If you go to this address:
http://www.ob.org/_programs/water/
it gets a 403 server error. I'm not sure how SEOmoz handles this, but my gut tells me you'd probably be safe to just 301 redirect that URL to the following:
http://www.ob.org/_programs/water/water_index.asp
However, if that doesn't work, you will need to add content to and allow users to browse that specific page.

Hi Collin.
Thanks for your feedback. Now when say "resolve", what does that actually mean?
-
According to their "Set up a Campaign" page, subfolder is as specific as it gets. They mention that the subfolder must be resolved in order to be crawled.
Alternatively, if you're mainly interested in on-page items, you can use the "on-page optimization" tool under "Research Tools" to grade specific pages on keywords. Though I would suggest just resolving your .../water/ to actually show a page, then crawl the whole subfolder.

Pages extensions
Hi guys, We're in the process of moving one of our sites to a newer version of the CMS. The new version doesn't support page extensions (.aspx) but we'll keep them for all existing pages (about 8,000) to avoid redirects. The technical team is wondering about the new pages - does it make any difference if the new pages are without extensions, except for usability? Thanks!

Why would SEOMoz and GWT report 404 errors for pages that are not 404ing?
Recently, I've noticed that nearly all of the 404 errors (not soft 404) reported in GWT actually resolve to a legitimate page. This was weird, but I thought it might just be old info, so I would go through the process of checking and "mark as fixed" as necessary. However, I noticed that SEOMoz is picking up on these 404 errors in the diagnostics of the site as well, and now I'm concerned with what the problem could be. Anyone have any insight into this? Rich

Can you use aggregate review rich snippets on non-product pages?
It seems like the intended purpose of the aggregate review rich snippet is for an individual product page like a page for Madden 2013. However, what if you created a single page for all football video games that you sell and put reviews on this page for different games in this category. Could you still use the aggregate review markup for this page?
