Seomoz or GWMT correct?
-
I'm getting a few 404 errors show up in seomz, but a few thousand in gwmt.
These are old site url's that may have been missed by redirects.
Which one should I believe/attack first?

Thanks.

Yes, I have experienced the same with Google for this sort of issue where SEOmoz works effectively to let us know weekly crawl status report of our website.

Hi Vacbag,
I would suggest to go with the ones in SEOMoz and work your way down the list from GWT later on. The reason I mostly do this is that the results from the SEOMoz are more accurate (which means that the results are more up to date). But I would also look at the GWT errors after that, my experience however is that these errors are not always up to date.
Hope this helps!

Referral exclusion not working correctly?
Hi!I've added our gateway payment system to the Referral Exclusion List a few months ago. Nevertheless, it continues to appear as a referral, and obviously taking almost all of the revenue. Does it work for you? Do you know why could it be not working for my website?Thanks for your response!

I have few similar job forms that were created for different positions. SEOMoz says, its "duplicate pages". So how do I resolve it? I want my jobs to be searchable in Search Engines.

Google Analytics Customer filters & the correct syntax
Good afternoon from torential rain and thunder Wetherby UK 😞 Ive been delving into the world of custom filters in Google analytics and Ive hit a problem. Apart from Googles advice being out of date (wont get into that one) I wanted to set up clone a profile of an existing site and set up a filter that would exclde USA traffic. But a country can be called many things e.g. United Sates USA America so how do you know what is the correct name to put in the filter pattern box? Here is a screen shot of my efforts :http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/filter-toexclude-usatrafficcopy.jpg (I chaned it to United States) So my question is where is there a list of the correct syntax for the filter pattern box? Taker for example you wnated to set up a custom filter to include just Palm OS traffic apprently from reading this the correct filter patter is Palm OS, i only know that from this http://www.e-nor.com/blog/web-analytics/tracking-mobile-devices-in-google-analytics Whilst Google has lots of documentation about filed patterns as documented here http://support.google.com/analytics/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1034380&topic=1034830&ctx=topic Where in the name of flying spacial jockstraps is there documentation for the correct filter pattern syntax. Help my head hurts 😞

Using the SEOmoz API with SEOTools for Excel
Hi there, I'm trying to use the SEOmoz API in Excel, to get the Domain Authority and MozRank for a bunch of URLs. I've tried multiple techniques, but I can't get it to work. The code I currently got is from SEOGadgets post, and I'm using the SEOTools for Excel plugin. Here is what I got: =JsonPathOnUrl("http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/url-metrics/"&A3&"?Cols=68719476736";"$..pda";"<httpdownloader cache="false" pause="1" authenticateuser="REDACTED" authenticatepassword="REDACTED" requestmethod="GET"></httpdownloader>") The problem is, it always returns 1 for every URL. Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong? Or show me an easier way to do this? I have double checked the API keys and tested on multiple URLs.

Distribution of SEOMOZ Ranking Metrics across all Monitored Websites
Hi, I'm looking into building a tool which would incorporate SEOMOZ ranking metrics and I have a few questions with regard to the ranking data which will help me develop it correctly. I have done a few searches, for the information but haven't found an answer to these questions on seomoz - if they exist somewhere then I would be grateful if you could point me in the right direction. 1/. When looking at the values of metrics such as MozRank and DA, is there any information on how this values are distributed amongst the ranked website - EG The mean / median values of DA and MozRank etc of all websites monitored is X & Y . If there were any distribution graphs for these values then even better. 2/. Along the lines of the above - are there any online resources showing similar information for google PR? 3/. What is the calcuation used in the scale of MozRank and DA - ie We have a scale of 1-10 for these values - be we also know the scale in not linear but logrithmic - ie Double the Links of a DA 5 website and you would not end up with a DA 10 website - so what is the calculation which defines the scale. A WBF about google PR by Rand indicated that a value of between 8-9 is used in Google PR - but what about the values used for DA and MozRank etc? Many thanks for your help

Why doesnt Seomoz give daily ranking updates
Although a little obsessive I can't be the only one checking rankings on a daily basis. Indeed if such a practice was not widespread then software such as linktracker wouldnt exist. It's a shame that Seomoz has the functionality to check rank, however chooses to only do so once per week. Therefore we pay for tools such as link tracker in addition to Seomoz. Here starts a petition for daily updates!!! 😉
