Pro newbie - What is a "campaign"?
-
I signed up three weeks ago and the first email to me begins with:
The first step in PRO is to set up your campaign. Once we start tracking your site and social media accounts, you'll start receiving handy reports of your data. You can also surface site issues right in the app to help you prioritize which fixes you can make for immediate results.
At this point I don't know what kind of "campaign" this is or what the "app" is.
I have also lodged a ticket because something seems to be broken about my Pro status. I can obviously participate here, so I have a Pro status, but at OSE, it says "Social metrics only available to paid Moz subscribers. Learn more" and hit my Advanced Report limit for the day without seeing any such report.
-
The question was more by way of feedback that the welcome email could expand those concepts with a sentence or two as per the above replies. I signed up but then travelled before using the tools three weeks later and was reacting to an article by Chris Warren at Distilled, which sent me to OSE. And that site didn't think I was Pro. I then wondered if I needed to download some app for a phone. Sorry but it was 7 am on a Saturday morning.
Incidentally, having started a campaign, my ""Social metrics only available to paid Moz subscribers" error message went away, so perhaps OSE gets a prod after a campaign is started?

Hi Ash, and welcome to Moz! I've flagged this question for the help team to come in and answer, and you should be hearing from them soon about OSE.
Here's an introduction to get you started: http://moz.com/help/pro/introduction.
A campaign is generally the website you're working on, and the app is Moz. This just means to put in the website you're working on and we'll start letting you know about any problems we find.

Hey Ash, Welcome to Moz.
Firstly "a campaign" is what you setup to monitor your website's SEO performance. Think of a campaign as like "a project".
"The app" is simply the application/interface where you see all the data pertaining to "the campaign".
If you've not yet setup your first campaign, please go to http://pro.moz.com/campaigns/new and follow the steps.
Once you have a campaign setup go to http://moz.com/pro/home to access it within the app.
Hope that helps,
Woody

Unsolved Moz Pro crawl signaling missing canonical which are not?
Hi,
Moz Pro | | rolandvintners
I'm trying MozPro considering using it.
One of the tool which is appealing is the crawl and insights.
After quick use, I really question many of the alerts, for instance, I got a "missing canonical tag" on this url: https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto#2020 but when I check my markup, there's clearly a canonical tag: <link rel="canonical" href="https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto"> Anybody can explain?
I asked Moz Pro staff when being onboarded but didn't get an answer...
Honestly, I'm questioning the value of these crawls, or may be I miss something?0 -
Page Title "Untitled Document" with mozbar
Hi, I'm working on a big news website (in tourism) and, when checking my homepage with mozbar, I often get: "My Title • Untitled Document" - 69 characters With no apparent reason, If I refresh the page or simply visit it later, it could randomly switch to the "normal" title: "My Title" - 44 characters It looks like completely random to me, like something more is loaded in the first case. I've checked my source code of course, and <title>tag seems to be ok with no other <title> even when I get the "untitled document".</p> <p>I have no idea about that. I don't know if that can be a useful info, but I was trying to understand why the majority of my main keywords searches are only showing other pages (I can rarely find my homepage) even though my home looks correctly indexes and shows as first result for every site: research.<br /><br />Hope everything's is clear....any idea or suggestions?<br /><br />Thank you in advance.</p> <p> </p></title>

Rel=canonical "redirects" to double links
Our devs have set up rel=canonical on our website. First they used relative links href="/dir1/dir2/dir3" for the page http://www.mysite.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/?detail1=1?detail2=2 meaning that it will redirect to http://www.mysite.com/dir1/dir2/dir3, but no luck, the MOZ dashboard showed the tag value to be http://www.mysite.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir1/dir2/dir3, then we have decided to rewrite the code, and now the canonical to http://wwwmysite.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/?detail1=1?detail2=2 looks like href="http://www.mysite.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/" but the tag on MOZ looks like http://www.mysite.com/dir1/dir2/dir3http://www.mysite.com/dir1/dir2/dir3. So what is the problem? I really got a problem or MOZ does? The code on website looks exactly like href="http://www.aaa.com/en/bbb/ccc/vvv/nnn/" rel="canonical" /> for the page http://www.aaa.com/en/bbb/ccc/vvv/nnn/

Campaign set-up: root domain vs. subdomain
Hi, I have a question about the proper way to set up a new SEOmoz campaign for a simple 5-page website (home, about, services, blog, contact). If I'm tracking only www.domain.com, does it make a difference if I set it up to track just that subdomain or should I track it at the root domain? Is it better to use the root domain? Are there pros or cons to using one over the other? If the website is expanded in the future, any future pages will most likely be on the same subdomain (e.g., www.domain.com/page). Thanks in advance! Carolina
