Where can I find documentation for the different SEO Pro Tools?
-
I apologize if this has been asked and answered or if the documentation is right in front of my nose, but I can't find it. I'm looking for information that explains what the various tools do and in particular, what each of the fields in the reports mean? For example, what does the "Find Links on this Domain" link mean in a Juicy Linkfinder Report? I know there are lots of resources on SEO and best practices and so on, but wondering if documentation on the specific tools exists. Thanks.

Hi Janice,
We're working on adding more and more documentation to our Help Desk. So you should definitely check that out!

Enjoy!

Wow - thank you Tom. I'll definitely check out these links and just keep reading and learning. Probably the more I know about the SEO concepts, practices and reports, the easier the tools will be to use. Thanks again.

Here you go, I managed to dig up informative blog posts for most of the active tools:
Trifecta

Competitive Link Finder
http://www.seomoz.org/ugc/competitive-link-finder-provides-qualitative-link-building-ideas
Linkscape

Hi Janice,
I'm not aware of any central location for all the docs. The main page has short descriptions:
Then some tools have their own help section:
http://www.seomoz.org/rank-tracker/help
Others have a longer description on the page:
http://www.seomoz.org/crawl-test
The other good resource are the blog posts where tools are introduced, which are easiest found by googling the toolname, for example:
http://www.seomoz.org/blog/goodbye-page-strength-hello-trifecta-seomozs-latest-analysis-tool
I know you were maybe looking for something longer and more details, but I'm afraid that is all I'm aware of. I think the introductory blog posts are pretty thorough though. Hope this helps!

Finding Related Keywords and/or Phrases
I'm diving into unknown territory and looking for keywords and phrases related to a prospective new clients business. He knows some of the general terms, for example, water removal. What tool works best to find related search terms and the number of searches for those keywords/search terms. I usually use the Google Keyword Tool but going to give moz a try. Love to be able to get local search data as well. Thanks!

Can I setup SEOmoz PRO's 3 organic traffic metrics within Google Analytics (as custom reports)?
I like the 3 organic traffic metrics in SEOmoz PRO: 1) Organic Search Visits
Moz Pro | | AndreVanKets
2) URLs Receiving Entrances Via Search
3) Non-Paid Keywords Sending Search Visits They rock - especially for a high-level view of SEO / Organic performance. Is it possible to setup these metrics as custom reports directly in Analytics? Does anyone have these reports setup? Or maybe there are similar custom reports that give a similar high-level view?0 -
Can the link acqusition tool / web directory list be used for non-english language enquiries?
Hi there, We are currently in the trial period of seomoz pro and have been testing all of the availiable tools. We are very happy with OSE and the other professional tools however we have discovered a barrier in our research methods. 1, Does anyone know how can you use the link acqusition assistant for non-english enquiries? The suggested search queries that are automatically generated are "submit site" "submit url" etc, but this has almost no use for a non-english keyword. - Also are the results only displayed for google.com - is there no localization at all of search enquiries? 2, The list of directories provided by seomoz link: http://www.seomoz.org/directories are anglo-centric. What are the availiable options for non-english speaking directories / local directories NOT based in the United States? Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated!

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?
