How to set the crawler or reports to ignore
-
I have a mobile version of a site with a URL string that disables the mobile view on smartphones (view full site), string is like this example.com/page-name.html?mobile=off
I need the seomoz pro reports or crawler to ignore it because the crawler visits both versions of the site then reports them as duplicate content. Is there a setting page I haven't visited yet that will set this?

Thanks for the confirmation. I hadn't wanted to put that in the robots file because if inquisitive, non-robot traffic if you get my meaning, but in it goes; can't stand seeing errors.

Got it, thanks for jumping in so quick.

Hey Str8,
Donford is correct. You would need to specifically block our crawler from the mobile pages in your robots.txt file. Unfortunately, we don't currently have a way to disregard specific pages or errors in the web app, but we are looking to add that function sometime in the future.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi Str8
**user-agent: rogerbot disallow: /*mobile=**
I think may do the trick... somebody may need to confirm this.

Issue with Opesiteexplorer report
Hi, When I pulled backlinks report for my website from opensite explorer. I see the backlinks listing for my homepage is duplicated with index page. Ex. For a external website my homepage www.website.com as well as www.website.com/index.php shows as backlinks. Note: I had given rel=canonical tag to my homepage and index.php is 301 redirection to the homepage. I find this error only to my homepage and I don't find this issue to my inner pages. I would like to know whether this is an issue with opensiteexplorer or a problem with my homepage url. Your answers are appreciated.

Optimization report card says "F" but I'm ranking #1
Using the SEOMoz pro tools and several of the terms I have listed get a report card of "F" but they also show Google rank of #1, #2. Is this unusual? And should I spend a lot of time "fixing" this if we're already ranking high?

Best Automated Report?
I would like to implement a reporting function to my website to offer a bit of value and information to potential clients. I am thinking along the lines of a simple input form to include a business name and url. The output would be a clean, branded (my business, url, phone) report that shows opportunities, lowest lying fruit, keywords most prominent, and any errors. I found this site - http://www.analyticsseo.com/ but, it seems pretty expensive. Does anyone have any suggestions on another suite that might work? Many thanks!

Is there anyway i can change a campaign setting once it has been established from root domain to domain? I could just start a new campaign but that seems a bit of a pain.
