Sorry Alan,
Obviously misread what you were asking.
The answer is No. You cannot change the domain name. The following is from the FAQ on campaign setup:
Q. Can I change the domain later?
A. You cannot change the domain of a campaign once it is created. If you need to track content, rankings, etc. on a new subdomain or domain, you must create a new campaign. Don’t panic – archiving and adding campaigns is easy.It is also not possible to duplicate the campaign and change details, so you will need to archive the old campaign and create a new one, but that is not so difficult to do.
The most arduous part of re-creating a campaign is adding the keywords, but this is also quite simple. All you need to do is export your keyword list to csv from the old campaign, open it in Excel, select the keywords in the first column and copy to your clipboard.
When you create the new campaign, just add one "placeholder" keyword in the screen that asks for keywords, then continue setup. When the campaign has been created, click "Manage Keywords" link at the top of the Overview page and paste the keywords from your csv file into the input field. Click Add Keywords and you're done.
If you choose a "placeholder" keyword that was not in the original list then you're fine. If you used one that was already in the list, you will just need to delete the duplicate so it does'nt mess up your reports.
Hope that helps,
Sha

Thanks but I want to change the domain name, not simply the name.
i could not see how you can change the domain name.

Hi Alan,
You can change the campaign name by clicking Settings in the campaign.
Just change the information in the Campaign name field and save.
Hope that helps,
Sha

Alternatives to Domain Authority
Is there another metric (or metrics) that is similar to the Moz Domain Authority that doesn't fluctuate as much? I've been reporting it on a monthly basis for about a year, but lately it seems like it's been going up and down every few weeks.

Can not start a SEO MOZ campaign?
I keep getting this message, I have a 301 from my domain to my domain with the www prefix. What's the deal? We have detected that the domain www.photosbykristopher.com and the domain photosbykristopher.com both respond to web requests and do not redirect. Having two "twin" domains that both resolve forces them to battle for SERP positions, making your SEO efforts less effective. We suggest redirecting one, then entering the other here.

SEOmoz Campaign Setup: What would you do?
I've been using moz for nearly a year now. Initially when I set up our site (rac.com.au) it was as a single campaign for the rac.com.au domain. However, our business has a number of different product offerings and marketing teams (Insurance, finance, travel/tourism, automotive, security etc) - would I be better off setting each of these 'sub' brands as a campaign on their own using the 'folder' campaign setup? For example, have a campaign setup for the Insurance business (rac.com.au/insurance) folder, Finance business (rac.com.au/finance) and so forth? The advantage I see to the folder campaign setup is more specific reporting for each of the business units. Are there disadvantages to this? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Ryan

SEOmoz indicating duplicate page content on one of my campaigns
Hello All, Alright, according to SEOmoz's PRO campaign manager, one of my websites is returning about 2,700 pages that supposedly have duplicate content. I checked a few of them manually and am not seeing where the issue lies. Is anyone else experiencing something similar to this and do you know if it is just a glitch with the crawl? Here are 2 of the pages it is indicating have dup page content: http://www.dieselpowerproducts.com/c-3120-1994-98-59l-12v-dodge-cummins-carbon-fiber-hoods.aspx http://www.dieselpowerproducts.com/c-90-dodge-cummins-94-02-59l-12v24v.aspx Any insight would be greatly appreciated! -Craig
