How Old or How Often does the "Beginners Guide to SEO" Get Updated

Good morning
Just wondering how often does the intro/beginners guide get updated?
I often refer back to this guide for some "back to basics"
Regards

Hi George!
The Beginner's Guide to SEO is an evergreen piece of content that we update on a regular basis. SEO best practices change at a rapid rate due to updates in the algorithm and shifts in the industry, so we try to update the guide every 1.5-2 years, depending on the changes the update needs to reflect. The last update was released in May of 2012 (you can read more about what we changed here), and we've got another update in the works that will commence later this year.
Thanks for referring back to the guide for your SEO basics, and happy reading!
Ashley

The Pros & Cons of Free SEO Reports
Are the numerous Free SEO reports that are available around the internet, where I simply put a website address in and wait for the results actually any good? I tend to stick with Moz & Semrush which takes a little time pulling all the information I need together, but many of our clients are being approached by SEO's waving these free reports at them. Should I see these reports as valid, or ignore them and only concentrate on Moz. Any views will be greatly appreciated. -Christina

How do i get the crawler going again?
The initial crawl only hit one page. Set up another campaign for another site and it crawled 260 pages. How can I get the crawler started up again or do I really have to wait a week ?

Is there a way to get the SEO campaign crawl to run from outside the US?
We are working on a international site that uses IP redirection. I am currently trying to crawl and monitor the Australian version of the site, however the pro-campaign crawler is running from the US and only giving me US data. Is there a way to tell the crawler to run through a local proxy so we can track international versions? Thanks!

The "Social Media Monitoring" tool in research tools
I used this tool once and noticed it provided nice links to where listed keywords were posted in articles, forums, blogs, etc..., since that time @3 weeks ago... it lists an "error" to links and/or doesn't provide them in a linkable list below to access. Is this tool being worked on or will it be available in the future? Thank you.

How can I update On Page Optimization Reports following 301 redirect?
A few weeks ago I ran the SEOMoz On Page Optimization Reports for one of my sites. At the time, the site homepage was duplicated .com/ and .com/index.html (I know!). The On Page Optimisation Reports I ran at the time obviously included both as individual pages. I've now corrected the duplicate issue with a 301 but the On Page Optimization Reports are still looking at the rankings for .com/index.html and therefore showing "not in top 50" for keywords where I'm actually ranking 1st - any idea how I can get the reports to update so they don't continue to look for .com/index.html? Thanks!
