Difference between SEOmoz Pro and Mozscape API
-
Hi,
I probably put this question in a wrong category, so I'd like to ask again.
I am new in SEOmoz and writing this from Japan.
I have couple of questions and really appriciate if you can help me to understand SEOmoz. better.First of all, what is the difference between SEOmoz Pro and Mozscape API?
I signed up for 30days free trial and now continue being $99 PROmember.
Is that correct that rate limit is one request every 2 seconds with PRO?and also want to know about free API that I found after signed up for PRO.
Is there any restrictions on free API except for rate limit is one request every 10 seconds?The main reason I signed up for SEOmoz was to use the API link metrics, and because of the language I got really confused now.

understand. But there are some advanced people who want both . Just follow your competitor. I need both Because of issue and limitation. example you have a system only possible to see up to 10k backlink . But if I need 100k backlink analysis what I can do. also cost too high. No sense with 500$. how its possible majestic only charge 50$ provide us all everything including api access with 5 million backlink. I believe both will be same product in your seo moz. If you survey you will se most people use your competitor link metrics because reasonable and high. as a millionaire company seo experienced I see that how they sell the product. If you test it for few days you will see the response. Thousand of people serious interested your product also use seo moz product improve your sales. Most people want to use both link metrics for serious research.

They are different products, and different types of people want each product, so we have separate plans. There are people who only have the API and do not use Pro, and many people who use Pro who have no need for the API.

Thats is my question why pro membership and api seperate.
Paid access to Mozscape is separate from PRO membership.
We will get the access the api until pro membership expire.

Was the period at the end accidentally included? Try:

Hi! We have more information on this at http://apiwiki.moz.com/free-vs-paid-access.

But
I believe seo moz give us api access free for pro user. please look your competitor such as majestic seo. if we their membership receive free api use ability. So if seo moz do it . Its helpful for us no need extra more payment. its not realistic a seo moz pro membership don't have access to their api even after pay 99$ per month.I hope seo moz will give us free access with api. atleast for seo moz pro user.

Thanks Martijn.
It helped me to understand more about the difference between those. -
Hi Shinya,
Let me try to help you out, hopefully if I say something wrong the Moz staff will correct me. The difference between SEOmoz Pro and the Mozscape API is that the API only covers details about the data you see in Open Site Explorer. As it's an API it will provide you with raw data.
The SEOMoz Pro campaigns will give you via dashboards insights in how your pages are marked up with the right code for search engines.
You're right about the rate limit of requesting every 2 seconds. There's a difference for the API besides the difference in rate limits for paying customers. You won't get acces to some parts of the API for retrieving metrics. You can find a complete overview of the methods you can request over here.
Hope this helps!

Is it possible to submit a page to the seomoz index?
We recently got added to dmoz and botw and would like to see those links considered in our domain authority as we are tracking our progress and comparing ourselves to other sites. Is it possible to submit links to the seomoz index manually to have those tracked? (If I am even understanding this correctly)

Why do the Ranking Report emails differ from the acutal Ranking Report?
I have been noticing that the Rankings listed in the emails are far different from the ones in my report once I log in. Any idea what this is about? Often the rankings in the email are much better then in the report. And I am talking about on the same day as the email was sent out, not a week later.

Question about SEOMoz Pro and Root Domain vs. Subdomain tracking
I currently have two Pro campaigns set up. They are both tracking the root domains of two different e-commerce sites. I also am tracking three competitors for each company, in each campaign. I have those set up by subdomains, like so www.Competitor.com. So in my Historical link analysis I am getting MyRootDomain.com, compared to www.competitor1.com, www.competitor2.com and www.competitor3.com Is this a problem? Would it be better for me to switch my company campaigns to track subdomains too, or to switch my competitor tracking to root domains. This is probably pretty rudimentary, but it never even occurred to me until just now. I realize that if I switch to subdomains for my own company tracking this would necessitate setting up a completely new campaign. This would be a problem because I am maxed out on my 1,000 keywords. Last but not least, does the fact that I have been tracking my own site root domains compared to competitors subdomains mean all of my competitive domain and link analysis is, well, garbage?...because I haven't really been comparing the same things?

Duplicate Content and Titles in SEOMoz reports
I've had to rename some of the pages on my site and also move them to different locations. I placed a rel="canonical" on the old page pointing to the new one. The reports on my PRO Dashboard are telling me that I have Duplicate Content and Page Title errors. Do the SEOMoz automated reports take the rel="canonical" link into consideration or do I need to remove these pages and do a 301 redirect from the old to the new page?

SEOMoz only crawling 5 pages of my website
Hello, I've added a new website to my SEOmoz campaign tool. It only crawls 5 pages of the site. I know the site has way more pages then this and also has a blog. Google shows at least 1000 results indexed. Am I doing something wrong? Could it be that the site is preventing a proper crawl? Thanks Bill
