What's with the new Q&A set up?
-
In the old Q&A set up your response was automatically given a thumbs up by you so that you got a mozpoint for every response you gave. Now you have to manually thumb up your responses. Why was this change made? Can we get it back to the way it was?
-
SEO Moz only gives out 20 Moz points per month for responding for asking or answering questions or leaving replies. After that I you can still thumbs up your own question, response, etc.
-
Likewise.

Here's the blog post: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/pro-qa-forum-upgrades-changes
-
That makes a lot of sense - I had been wondering how many people got "answers" that really didn't help as much as another might have had someone not skipped it because it had "appeared" to have already been answered...
-
Hmm that's actually a bug I believe... I don't think you should be able to thumb yourself up at all. I'll need to check on it, but I think you shouldn't be able to.
-
Hey Alan, that isn't a bug. We're asking people to mark questions as "answered" and until they are, they say unanswered. Even though someone has left a response, the question may still not be answered.
-
Hey guys, I'm just about to publish a blog post that talks all about a bunch of new changes. The focus is for people to earn points for not only participating but adding value as well. Sadly we've had people who are only focused on gaming the system and creating silly questions or adding spammy answers just to gain points. So we've taken quite a few measures to give people MORE points for valuable answers/questions and less points for non-valuable ones. The post is going up in the next 20 minutes or so that has quite a bit more information.
Thanks!
Jen

There's bugs I think. Questions still showing as unanswered even after responses, points not being credited right away after answering (at least that's been my case since last night. So I reported it over at the help desk.
-
Good call, thumbs up for that I will overlook it as well, it would just be nice to not have to remember to do it all the time.
-
I noticed that too. Kinda sucks. SEOmoz doesnt want to comp too many memberships i guess. Kinda lame, good thing SEOmoz is awesome, willing to overlook it.
BTW it's funny that you noticed that, yet neglected to thumbs up your own post on a question about the very subject.
-
I gave you a thumbs up for reply so that it feels a little less awkward
-
It is kind of weird manually giving yourself the thumb.

Duplicate Content & Rel Canonical Tag not working
I'm really questioning the legitimacy of the duplicate content flags with moz. I'm building a website that sells home decor products and a lot of the pages are similar in structure (As would be expected with a store that sells thousands of individual products). It seems a little overkill to me to flag the following pages as duplicate content. They have different urls, titles, h1, h2, and h3 tages, different meta tags, etc. Right now, it's saying that the following have duplicate page content: http://www.countryporchhomedecor.com

http://countryporchhomedecor.com/park-designs/rag-rugs/redmon-rag-rug-36x6 Any ideas? Also, it seems like it's not honoring the rel-canonical tag. It keeps saying that pages with a rel canonical tag are duplicates when some of the urls that it's flagging shouldn't even be indexed because of the canonical tag. The "pi" in the query string should not be indexed! http://www.countryporchhomedecor.com/bedding-&-quilts/shams/standard-shams?pi=18&page=3

Does SEOmoz have a Keyword Research tool similar to, say, the Google AdWords tool or the WebCEO Keyword Research Tool? And where might that be? (Sorry, I'm very new to SEOmoz Pro.)
I'm looking for an SEOmoz version of the classic WebCEO Keyword Research that would give you effective suggestions based on a keyword inquiry. I've made the switch from WebCEO, but I'm trying to find something similar to that Keyword Research tool. Am I going to just need to use the Google AdWords tool for this function or does SEOmoz have it's own version?

Reminder: PRIVATE Q&A going away
Hello everyone, Just a quick reminder that today is the last day to ask a private question before we shut down private Q&A (see the full announcement at http://www.seomoz.org/q/private-question-shutdown). We encourage you to submit your private question before 12:00 Pacific Daylight Time today (so in the next two hours). After that, you will no longer be able to ask new private questions, but any questions that have been asked will be answered over the next few days. ONLY private Q&A is shutting down. Public Q&A is here to stay! You'll be seeing more activity in public Q&A from associates as they answer questions and endorse answers, and more feature development in public QA during the year.

Fetch googlebot for sites you don't own?
I've used the "fetch as googlebot" tool in Google webmaster tools to submit links from my site, but I was wondering if there was any type of tool or submission process like this for submitting links from other sites that you do not own? The reason I ask is, I worked for several months to get a website to accept my link as part of their dealer locator tool. The link to my site was published a few months ago, however I don't think google has found it and the reason could be because you have to type in your zip code to get the link to appear. This is the website that I am referencing: http://www.ranchhand.com/dealers.php?zip=78070&radius=20 (my website is www.rangeroffroad.com) Is there any way for Google to index the link? Any ideas?

What's Your SEOmoz Favorite?
Obviously, SEOmoz is full of awesomeness. But I'm curious as to what sections, tools, etc. of SEOmoz are the users' favorites? For me, it's a close race between the blog, Linkscape/Open Site Explorer, and the search overlay tool on the Mozbar. What are your favorites?
