Moz Q&A is closed.
After more than 13 years, and tens of thousands of questions, Moz Q&A closed on 12th December 2024. Whilst we’re not completely removing the content - many posts will still be possible to view - we have locked both new posts and new replies. More details here.
Does anybody know of a good bulk import http response checker? The one I was using has disappeared and I can only find checkers that only take one URL at a time.

An example of something I'm looking for but I want to check multiple checkers: http://web-sniffer.net/

screaming frog does not seem to export the whole chain though when there is more than one redirect in a chain. Did you experience the same thing, as it may be a glitch on my side?

Jeremy - it's available in the free version and if you click on Mode > List you can upload a file. I'm crawling 75K URLs and had to manually increase my memory so it would crawl faster.
Instructions on that here:

Good luck!

I looked at screaming frog, I didn't see anything that indicated how you would provide a file of thousands of URL's on the same domain to be checked? And I don't want to crawl the website, I just want it to check the 1 url and provide a response then go to the next one. Where would one find this feature in screaming frog?

As the thread discusses, a while back we started using Screaming Frog and love it. Recommended.

Jeremy/Kurt - I'm in the same boat. Have 75K URLs I'm trying to check as part of a link pruning project.
There's actually another Moz Forum post (http://moz.com/community/q/mass-404-checker) that has a very similar ask and responses are largely the same.
Below is a link that was mentioned in this post, but I've tried it a few times and it keeps getting hung up on any list over 100 URLs.
http://www.tomanthony.co.uk/tools/bulk-http-header-compare/
Below are the only other ones I've found, but again are limited to 100 or less URLs.
http://tools.seobook.com/server-header-checker/?page=bulk&typeProtocol=11&useragent=1
I feel like this is such a common problem for people trying to do any kind of mass back link research project. I'm also looking for something that checks follow vs nofollow so I can further narrow my list.
Maybe we should just create the tool? : )

Not sure if we are attempting to do the same thing but in looking at the tools recommended here not sure they do what we are looking for. We would like to take a list of 100,000 URL's and have some software check the response code for each one. We don't want it to crawl a site just the individual URL provided and then go on to the next one in the list.
Anyone know of a tool that can do this?
Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi Anthony - we found Screaming Frog a few weeks ago. Definitely a solid tool.
-
Check out Screaming Frog - It's an SEO spider that crawls your site pretty quickly - giving a multitude of useful seo data - including response headers. Two drawbacks: 1) it costs roughly $130 and 2) it has difficulty crawling sites with more than 100K pages. I believe Audette Media is coming out with an industrial strength crawler this summer but don't have a lot details yet. Hope this helps.

Hey,
The Crawl Test includes the http status code for each page if that's what you're after. Then you can download it as a .CSV

EDIT - Didn't realise this was PRO but you could always do the free trial

so far no luck!

Did the SEObook tool in the link below solve your problem, or are you still looking for a tool?

Adwords Duplicate Keywords with Different Match Types - Good or Bad?
If you have the following keywords in an Ad Group advertising for a product, let's for example call it "target" product [target product] "target product" +target +product I've found that the exact match keyword has the highest conversion rate in almost all circumstances. So it would make sense to have a higher max bid on the exact match then phrase or broad batch. Even with lots of negative search terms to maximize conversion on the broader matches, if the bid is the same as exact match, the cost per conversion will be much higher (too high.) However in chatting with an Adwords Support Rep (on a different matter) they stated after looking through my account at the end of the chat: " duplicate keywords will impact on quality score. your all keywords will compete with each other" However many of the ad groups in question these duplicate keywords have quality score of 9 and 10. So obviously if there is an effect it seems it may be minimal. I thought it was pretty common for people to bid higher on more exact match and lower on more broad match. What's the real story here? Was this support rep not seeing the big picture?

What is the best way to update Adwords final URLs if I'm moving to a new CMS?
Hi there - One of my clients is redeveloping its website. That means, the domain is remaining the same, but the whole site is being rebuilt in wordpress so all the adwords final URLs need to change OR be redirected. There are 550 live adgroups and 3400 ads. We haven't set up tracking. I can't find anywhere what the best thing to do is in this case. The key issues seem to be: 1. 301 redirects - given we have to do these anyway as part of migration, this seems to be the easiest path as Google is ok about redirects as long as they don't go to a different domain. From what I'm hearing, you don't get adversely impacted in terms of quality score etc. This has the huge advantage that you don't have to edit the ad therefore no loss of statistical history or risk of downtime whilst you wait for approval. HOWEVER, there is some concern that if you then redirected again IN THE FUTURE, the redirect might not work (in some browsers) or cause a loop. I'm also concerned that it's messy to leave it like that (ie: with the wrong URLs throughout). 2. Buik updating ads - I don't think this is an option as if you bulk download and then reupload, Google will see this as a new ad, and delete all the statistical history - I'm also concerned that that WOULD impact quality score as you'd be starting from scratch! 3. Changing each ad individually - as far as I understand you'd have to create copies of all the ads (so that you keep the history of the old ones) and effectively create new ones with the correct URL - one by one. You end up with a messy account (a lot of paused ads) but you keep the history? This is obviously the most time consuming and I can't see a way of avoiding ads having to go in for approval again, given the urls are all different, so you'd have to do this a an ad level, not an adgroup/campaign level etc. People redevelop their websites (without changing domains) all the time. It seems strange that no one is mentioning this problem! Any ideas?! Many thanks

Google URL Builder / Campaign Tracking on two Different Domain using the Same Analytics Code
Hey Everyone, I think I know the answer to this but I'd like to get some confirmation. I currently have a landing page at "www.xyz.com", it's a separate domain in which only the landing page exists and not a vanity URL which redirects. However, the navigation and all the links on "www.xyz.com" actually link out to "www.abc.com". The domain / landing page "xyz" has the same analytics tracking code as domain "www.abc.com". My question is this, if I use Google URL builder to create custom URL's to track for each ad that I'm running in Adwords, will this data show up in the analytics of "abc" even though it's a separate domain because it has the same analytics code? In other words, does campaign data show only if the domain and the google analytics code line up, or does the domain not matter and as long as you have the same analytics code (despite two separate domains) that campaign data (built through Google URL builder) will show? My hunch and best guess it that as long as the analytics code is the same (regardless of a separate domain) that the data in campaign will show with the custom URL's I build. I'm aware that I can test this and I will but I'd like to get an idea from the community first to make things easier. Anybody have experience with this? Answers greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Near-duplicate content for landing pages - use noindex?
We want to create 5-10 near-duplicates of our homepage to use as landing pages – nearly all same text, but some different images. We want to make sure Google doesn't ding us for duplicate content. Is the best way to do that to tag each of these pages with "noindex"?
