Get up and running with the Moz tools.


  • I use Mozbar to check for nofollow links on any website. Recently I changed from Chrome to Firefox and it appears that the link highlight function is behaving different on the latter.
    On a page with nofollow in the robot.txt links are highlighted both when selecting nofollowed (pink) and followed (green) links. In Chrome it used to highlight only the nofollow links (as is correct in this case) Did anyone notice this behaviour too? Seems like a bug.

  • Ok I've installed a few tools over the past week but I'm pretty sure at one time in MozPro I entered three competitor's domains and a list of KWs and it showed our ranking vs theirs for Google and Bing.  I cannot for the life of me figure out how I did it or how I see the data. Is this going to be in one the reports that comes out every Tuesday (haven't gotten my first one yet)? Sorry for the newbie question.  I've been tearing my hair out, searched the forum real quick and didn't see it.  It's late and I want to wake up and be productive. Thanks all!

  • For instance how do I use the Rank Tracker or Keyword Tool. I want to get the most out of Moz and I need a resource that explains it. Thanks

  • Hi Mozers, I am pretty new to SEO and wanted to know what are the solutions for the various errors reported in the crawl diagnostics and  if this question has been asked, please guide me in the right directions. Following are queries specific to my site just need help with these 2 only: 1. Error 404: (About 60 errors) : These are for all the PA 1 links and are no longer in the server, what do i do with these? 2. Duplicate Page Content  and Title ( About 5000) : Most of these are automatic URL;s that are generated when someone fills any info on our website. What do I do with these URL;s. they are for example: _www.abc.fr/signup.php?_id=001  and then www.abc.fr/signup.php?id=002 and so on. What do I need to do and how? Plzz. Any help would be highly appreciated. I have read a lot on the forums about duplicate content but dont know how to implement this in my case, please advise. Thanks in advance. CY

  • I recently signed-up for a new pro account.  As I was adding my first subdomain everything was fine until I was asked to link to GA, when I clicked yes I got this error message: 403 Forbidden Now every time I click on set-up campaign I get taken to a page with nothing but the 403 Forbidden text.

  • Hi everyone; I've used Screaming Frog in the past and it's simple: you enter the URL to the box and click "start" and.. voila: as the button says, the crawling starts. I've had the Pro version of Moz for a while now and haven't really 'done' anything with it. I'd like to crawl a website and thought it would be as easy as it's always been with Screaming Frog... but, for some reason, I can't find the 'way' to do it. I find it really frustrating especially cause I feel like an idiot going around in circles thinking I'm missing something really obvious... Until I realised the only solution was to ask here! So... how in the world do you crawl a website using Moz tools? (Pro version) Thanks!

  • Hi everyone, This seems to be a fairly common query on the Q&A section, but I haven't been able to find a solution by reading through previous threads. When I try to set up an SEOmoz campaign for spryz.co.nz, I get that ol' favourite error message: 'We have detected that the domain spryz.co.nz does not respond to web requests. Using this domain, we will be unable to crawl your site or present accurate SERP information.' The problem isn't being caused by a Robots.txt file, and the site has experienced 99% uptime since it was launched.Traffic stats show that visits are coming through to the site via the search engines, suggesting that it may not be all crawlers that fail to access the site. I've tried to set up this campaign several times throughout the day, since I've read that sometimes Roger goes on the blink, but I've still not been successful. Any suggestions as to why Roger might be unable to crawl my website would be great.

  • "Is there an seomoz Pro User Guide that comes with my subscription? Something like and  overview of all the tools and how a new user would employ them to begin optimizing their site?" I saw in Scribd a SeoMoz Guide for Pro users but where is it in SEOMOZ to download?
