Learn SEOmoz API (and more)?
-
I'm sorry for this very basic question.
The reason why I'm asking is that I wan't to start to use SEOmoz API (and later on Majestic SEO etc.)
I have search on the web about API in general, SEOmoz specifically, in Q&A and asked around but:
I really can't get my head around what "set of skills" I need to know to be able use the SEOmoz API? And other APIs for that reason.Do I need a programming skills, or just knowledge how each specific API works(+ common sense)? Or both?
I'm sorry if this is off topic but the main reason why I'm asking is that I wan't to start to use the SEOmoz API.
If you could provide a link or two about where I can start to learn about how this works, I would really appreciate that!

You will generally need programming expertise, to write a program to pull and display the data from the API.

Thank you David, but I know there is well documented information about the API itself. I think this apiwiki is for someone that all ready understands the concepts of API.
The problem is not the information, the problem is that I don't really have a grip of what set of skills you need to work with SEOmoz (or Majestic SEO API.)
I'm sorry if I'm totally off topic for SEOmoz Q&A but I some one can point me in the right direction.
Thanks!

SEOscar - I've not used the API myself, but there is some decent documentation, including a Getting Started Guide in the Mozscape section of the site. I'd be inclined to start there.
Check out the Wiki page as well: http://apiwiki.seomoz.org/

Why does Seomoz report other values then Google Webmaster?
Dear Seomoz Community I check my Seomoz ranking from time to and today I saw a big discrepancy between the reported domains linking to my site in the Site Explorer and Google Webmaster tools. Seomoz reports 19 linking domains

Google shows 150 domains linking to my site. Is there an explanation for this discrepancy? Thank for helping me out 😉0 -
Do SEOmoz private questions get answered?
I submitted a question on September 30 and never received a response. I then followed up on October 6 and had an exchange with the support staff, who first told me that the question would be answered and then a couple of days later told me that they had no record of the question. By chance, I had taken a screen shot showing confirmation that the question had been sent (just something I did to remind myself to follow up if I didn't get a response!), which I sent to them along with the question again. That was four days ago, and I've heard nothing since then - not even an automated email saying that the question was received. Is it common for it to take almost a month before a response is received, and to have to follow up multiple times just to get an answer?

Does SEOMoz ever work?
Hi, I've signed up for the free 30 day trial and I'm on the edge of not actually subscribing to the service. I go through the Q & A boards which I find really interesting and hope I can add value there in the future, but the tools interest me more (and this is where the issue lies. Do they ever work? The Keyword difficulty tool just constantly says to come back in 20 minutes and I don't think the Rank Tracker has worked for at least half my freebie 30 days. Have the tools always been this flaky or is it a blip?

SEOmoz crawl error questions
I just got my first seomoz crawl report and was shocked at all the errors it generated. I looked into it and saw 7200 crawl errors. Most of them are duplicate page titles and duplicate page content. I clicked into the report and found that 97% of the errors were going off of one page It has ttp://legendzelda.net/forums/index.php/members/page__sort_key__joined__sort_order__asc__max_results__20 http://legendzelda.net/forums/index.php/members/page__sort_key__joined__sort_order__asc__max_results__20__quickjump__A__name_box__begins__name__A__quickjump__E etc Has 20 pages of slight variations of this link. It is all my members list or a search of my members list so it is not really duplicate content or anything. How can I get these errors to go away and make search my site is not taking a hit? The forum software I use is IPB.

Possible to force the SEOmoz Ranking Report to update?
Hi guys, I have added about 100 keywords to my Rankings Report in SEOmoz and I'm just wondering if there is a way to force the application to get my rankings ASAP rather than waiting a while for the rankings to come through? I'm in a bit of a hurry! 🙂 Thanks. C.

I want to hire someone to write some PHP code using the SEOmoz API.
...but I'm not sure how to go about it. What I need is simple: all I want is to be able to paste a list of URLs (different domains), and have the program return the Page Authority for all those URLs. I understand I can use the free SEOmoz API, particularly the URL Metrics API. Then I want to export the data to an Excel file. That's it. Problem is, I have absolutely no clue how to do it. Obviously I'd pay someone to do it. Pay very well if you can do it professionally and quickly. How can I go about finding the right person for the job? Apologies if this is not the right place to ask this, but I don't know where else to go. Thanks.
