How do I know which keywords to track in my MOZ Campaigns?
-
Good morning Mozzers from the London, England.
This may be a silly question to many of the community, but here goes "How do I know which keywords to track in my MOZ campaigns?"
I work in the gyms section in the UK and am tracking keywords like "Gyms in Liverpool" or "Manchester gyms" which send me some traffic.
I can see search terms like the above do send me traffic from Google's Webmaster Tools, but obviously this tool won't highlight the keyword opportunities I am missing out on because I currently don't rank.
Any guidance on this dilemma would be hugely appreciated,
Kindest regards
Ben

Hi Ben,
If you are already getting some traffics from some keywords. You can try out for Google Keyword Planner (https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner) and Keywordtool.io as advised by Martin. Also, you can Access your Google analytics in broader way by connecting it to MOZ pro Analytics> Keyword Ranking to get keywords based on your website and its competitors automatically.

Hi Ben
Have you already optimised your website for keywords? If not then follow Martijn's advice, if the current website is optimised then simply track all keywords which you are currently trying to rank for.
Kind Regards

Hi Ben,
I would start off with doing some extensive keyword research to find the best keywords that are you related to your business. Tools you could use for that are Google Adwords Keyword Tool and Keywordtool.io. Next to that there are more than dozens of great blog posts on how to do keyword research, like for example: http://blog.kissmetrics.com/keyword-research-part-2/ and http://www.viperchill.com/keyword-research/

Is it possible to block Moz from crawling sites?
Hi, is it possible to stop Moz from crawling a site at the server level? Not that I am looking to do this or anything, but here's why I'm asking. I have been crawling a site that is managed (currently by 2 parties), and I noticed that this week pages crawled went from 80 (last week) to 1 page!! I know, what? See my image attached... and the issues all went to zero "0"....! So is it possible that someone can't prevent Moz from crawling the site at the server level? I checked the robots.txt file on the site, but nothing there. I'm curious. dYNUwjd.jpg

How to Properly Set Up My Campaign
My url www.pcf.org redirects to ttp://www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4/Home.htm because of my old CMS and this cannot be changed. Should I set it up as a Subdomain, root domain, or folder? For example using the homepage url http://www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4/Home.htm I get the following results: subdomain: You've decided to set up a subdomain campaign, but entered the subfolder path:

www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4. Don't worry, we'll switch that for you and crawl everything on your subdomain: www.pcf.org. If you meant to set this up to only crawl pages in the subfolder /site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4, click "Go back and Change" and choose the subfolder option in step 1. root domain: You've decided to set up a root domain campaign, but entered the subfolder path: www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4. Don't worry, we'll switch that for you and crawl everything in the subfolder /site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4. subfolder: It looks like you submitted a URL that relates to an individual file: www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4/Home.htm
rather than a folder:
www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4. Don’t worry, we’ll switch that for you and crawl everything in that folder instead. If you meant to set this up for a different folder, click ”Go back and change” and enter a different path. To complicate things further, as you move through the site, the only part of the URL that starys consistent 100% of the time is: http://www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/ Depending on where you are on the site, it appends the url. For example: One page is http://www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.6185669/k.9792/Sherry_Galloway.htm while another is http://www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5800843/k.94DE/Everyday_Heroes.htm0 -

Moz Toolbar Analyzer - Links
On the moz toolbar there is an Analyze tool. The third tab is for viewing Page Attributes. That page contains a section called On Page Links. I can see the External Link count, but I need to drill down further to look at these external links. I have viewed a page and don't see the external links this tool is seeing. I have searched the page, the source code, and used other tools on the page. The numbers don't match up. Is there a tool which lists all the external links on a given page?
