Can you change the websites in your PRO Dashboard?
-
Hello,
I set a client's website in one of my 5 campaigns in my Pro Dashboard. But my client changed his domain. I don't see an option to change the domain server in the Campaign settings.
Is it possible?

Interesting. Keep us posted, will you Eblan? I'm curious to know how this works out.

I really hope I'm wrong & Jesse's right, but as I say - not how it's worked for me. I think you're safest to do both and cover your bases as you say. Worst case, all works as you hope and you can just delete the campaign I suggested.
I'm sure I saw a similar question which the Moz staff responded to saying the domain redirect wouldn't work, but haven't' been able o find it for you.
Good luck!
Paul

I will try this for sure once I have no campaigns left. Thank you very much for your time Nakul.

Thanks a lot Paul,
I guess I will do both. Just want to try Jesse's idea and verify it if I can. As usual, your info is of great help. I think I should set up the new campaign ASAP like you suggested, it is better for me and my client. Can't risk all the valuable info to get wasted.
Cheers!

Unfortunately, in my experience it's not going to work the way you hope (and assume), Eblan. Even with the redirects in place, it hasn't worked that way for me.
For example a clients site was domain.ca and they switched to domain.com. The campaign no longer collects data for the on-page reports for the original domain.
My advice would be, if you have any campaign slots left, create a new campaign for the new domain right away, so it can begin collecting data as soon as possible. Then if the old campaign drops out as I suspect, you'll have the new one up and running with as little lost data as possible (You can copy/paste keyword lists etc across from campaign to campaign).
The old campaign can be archived to free up another slot when you need it, but still keep the data available for future reference if you need to go back to it. That is to say, don't delete the old campaign, but archive it instead.
And if it turns out I'm wrong and the redirects work for you, you can just nuke the recently created campaign and get a free slot back.

No new info yet. I guess i'll wait for the next crawl this thursday. What you say makes a lot of sense though.
thanks Jesse!

You might want to email [email protected] with your campaign old domain and new domain and they "might" be able to help.

I don't see why not. Roger should follow your redirects just like any bot would. I'm assuming your campaign is still reporting normal stats? OSE working with the old domain, advising that it's redirecting?
-
The site is completely redirected to the new domain. Does this mean I can keep my current campaign? would be nice.
-
As far as I know, you will have to delete the campaign and start over. But I must ask.. did your client not redirect the domain?

Best blog practices for website
For my Insurance website blog, I use MOZ to help me find high DA authoritative sites, then either generate ideas from them, or rewrite the copy. If I rewrite the copy, I tend to pull from 2 - 3 top authoritative sites. Just so I don't get in trouble, but still offer the most concision information. _My question is, Is this ok to do? _ Secondly, I just read that on some .Gov sites the information is public, and that you can use it as long as you give credit. _My questions is, how do I tell which information is public? _ Thank you in advance 🙂

Can you explain social indicators in Open Site Explorer
My Google +'s for my domain were 403 last month and 35 this month.... Based on this I'm assuming OSE's numbers are not cumulative. Are they based on the previous month or a different time period? Any explanations would be helpful. Thanks!

Is it possible to override the 10k pages crawl limit on PRO?
Hi There, Just signed up for PRO and I love it! We have a particularly large website (tons of content) and the 10,000 page limit is holding us back from getting really exhaustive analysis. Is there any way to up the limit for a single crawl? Thanks!

Can I change Keyword Analysis from Google USA to Google Brasil:
I am on SEO MOZ pro and I am running an analysis on some Keywords. I would like to see how competitive they are on Google Brasil, but I only see GOOGLE USA and don~t know how to change it.

In competitive domain analysis my website shows pages that I no longer have.
When I go to my campaign, link analysis, under competitive comparison/followed backlinks, the 5 pages under Anchor Text/Target URL, supposedly on my website, are not on my website anymore. I recently moved my domain name to another server (before signing up for seomoz) and deleted the forum associated with my website. Those 5 pages are all from that now extinct forum. What's going on?
