What's the best way to switch a campaign from sub-domain tracking to root domain tracking?
-
I realized after the fact that one of my campaigns also has a mobile website sub-domain that I'd like to track (ex: http://m.website.com). How can I switch this campaign over to root domain tracking without deleting everything and starting over?

Thanks Peter!!

Hello there!
Thanks for writing in! This is a great question indeed! In our campaign tool, because the need to have the correct rankings tracked which is directly tied to sub vs. root. Our tool doesn't have the ability to edit root or sub domain information once the campaign has started With that being said, I would recommend you download your historical rankings and relevant information using our export CSV function to preserve your historical information. Once you have done that, archive the campaign and start a new one with the correct root domain tracking.
One way to get this feature added into our next iteration of tools is to go to our feature request, chances are that other people are thinking the same great idea you are! You can visit that by going to this link: https://seomoz.zendesk.com/categories/6327-known-issues-feature-requests.
I hope this helps! I am going to leave this question open so other folks can chime in on this topic, perhaps there's a web dev wizard or a excel data master that can figure out a work around
Best,
Peter

I'm thinking there's got to be a way. Many people set up their entire sites with dozens of root domains. The real issue is whether that has to be done at the initial setup or not. Don't forget you can also email [email protected]

Thanks for the suggestion Marisa, but unfortunately all 5 slots are taken, and I'm hoping that by tracking at root level it won't require depletion of those very valuable spots just to track the mobile version.

Do you have a free campaign slot? You could start an additional one just for the mobile site. But if there is a possible way for it to be added to an existing campaign, I'd like to know the answer to this as well.

'Too many on-page links': doesn't add up...
Hi All, I'm fairly new to the site, have had a full site crawl and am somewhat confused by a large number of pages (82) reported as showing 'too many on page links'. Mine is a new e-commerce site selling a project management methodology. I have about 80 pages which describe individual templates and contain internal links to additional, related content on the site. The crawl warnings define too many on page links as roughly 100 "on any given page" yet almost none of the pages flagged contain more than 20-30 on links. Any thoughts and ideas about (a) the degree to which this will aeffect my ranking in practice and (b) how to resolve it gratefully received! Thanks in advance, Felix

Issue with Data Updates on Campaign
I'm reviewing a campaign I am running for a client, the Keywords data has not updated yet even though it's supposed to update every monday. The competitive analysis shows a date of August 14, which is odd becuase I'm on a trial account?

Can someone explain to me why OSE shows two different numbers for Linking Root Domains in the header and in the results area?
See Photo Below. 271 in the header, 500 plus in the results section. I just want an accurate number to chart my progress from here on out. Majestic numbers seem inflated too much. Google Webmaster Tools too. g58HX.png

Yo-Yo-ing rankings - what's going on?
I'm getting a little fed up and exasperated - if I'm honest! Our seoMoz rankings are yo-yoing on a weekly basis - extremely. One week we're in the top 3, the next week, we're not in the top 50. The week after that, we're back in the top 3. Then we're outside the top 50 again. I understand rankings go up and down sometimes - but this is every week, without fail. Not only that, but I also check my rankings with cuteRank and Firefox's Rank Checker and while those rankings are consistent with each other - seoMoz's rankings are always different and the only ones that Yoyo. Further, it's not just our rankings that Yoyo - it's those of our competitors too. They follow the same pattern except that when we go up, they go down, and vice versa, I'm just a little lost and unsure what to do, and I can't believe really that this is a true reflection of what is happening to us on Google every week. I know rankings change but surely Google aren't throwing us around like this? It is making doing any SEO on the site impossible because I never know where I stand. Any ideas or help would be wonderful. Thanks.
