Changing the Timeframe of Historical Crawl Data
-
Hello,
Just read a great post about the implications of duplicate content for sites after the most recent Panda update:
In the post is an image or crawl data history that shows months, not days or weeks, worth of trending data as it relates to duplicate content.
So my question is this:
How do I change my view/date range on my own campaigns so that I can view the trailing months of data rather than only what seems to be the past 4 weeks or so? This would really help me identify the impact of some on page changes we've recently made for a client.
Many Thanks,
Jared

Sorry for the very slow response. Your data is still there (nothing lost), and is displayed historically in the graphs, but the detailed data is only shown for the latest week or day. We have 2 projects on our roadmap that will make this better in the platform. The first is monthly timeframes, so you can see changes in larger chunks over months instead of weeks. The other, is the ability to look at the detail data for past weeks (and months when that is in place). I don't have a timeframe on historical yet, but we should have more clarity around our plans for that feature in January.

I have a campaign that has been configured for a month (trial) which we upgraded into a paid package... can only see the last week... has historic data been lost?

Hi Jared,
It looks like this is cleared up, but wanted to follow up.
Pete's correct in that we only collect data from the start of a campaign, but will collect and display it for months following. In the future, we will be looking to add finer control so that long histories can be better displayed and managed.
Please let me know if there are other things we can do with this feature to make it better for you!
Thanks,
Adam

No worries - I know we're looking to add to the history functionality, but I'm not sure if you can control the date-range yet. I pinged the product team, so they'll chime in if they can tell you something I can't.

You know, looking at my other campaigns I'd imagine you're right on. Sorry, I didn't even think of that before I asked the question. In fact, maybe it was wishful thinking on my part that I had more data for this particular client.
Thanks for the quick response.

I think we only collect data from when the campaigns are first created, so it might vary depending on the account age, but I'll check that with the product team and get back to you. That graph was just the default for me.

Unsolved Moz Pro crawl signaling missing canonical which are not?
Hi,
Moz Pro | | rolandvintners
I'm trying MozPro considering using it.
One of the tool which is appealing is the crawl and insights.
After quick use, I really question many of the alerts, for instance, I got a "missing canonical tag" on this url: https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto#2020 but when I check my markup, there's clearly a canonical tag: <link rel="canonical" href="https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto"> Anybody can explain?
I asked Moz Pro staff when being onboarded but didn't get an answer...
Honestly, I'm questioning the value of these crawls, or may be I miss something?0 -

Seomoz crawl: 4XX (Client Error) How to find were the error are?

OK Crawl Test Link Question Again!
I've downloaded a crawl test and column G Link Count reads 62 and yep there are a total of 62 links on the page in question. Column AM Internal Links reads 303 and yep there are somewhere in the order of 303 pages pointing at this one. Root Domains is surprisingly low at 6, so maybe there are only 6 domains linking to this page. BUT... External Links read 51. There are not 51 links pointing away from this domain on this page, no way hozay, so can anybody tell me what is meant by 'External Links? A humble thank you in anticipation of an education. Jem

Slowing down SEOmoz Crawl Rate
Is there a way to slow down SEOmoz crawl rate? My site is pretty huge and I'm getting 10k pages crawled every week, which is great. However I sometimes get multiple page requests in one second which slows down my site a bit. If this feature exists I couldn't find it, if it doesn't, it's a great idea to have, in a similar way to how Googlebot do it. Thanks.

Crawl complete, but nothing changed?
Hi everyone, According to my account, the crawl diagnostics were completed yesterday. However, the duplicate page titles that it mentions aren't correct. The changes that I implemented several days ago are not being shown in the report. When I click the duplicate page title links, the latest date in the graph is 3/26. However, it says the crawl was completed on 3/30. Does it take a few days for the reports to match what the crawl actually discovered?

Question about when new crawls start
Hi everyone, I'm currently using the trial of seomoz and I absolutely love what I'm seeing. However, I have 2 different websites (one has over 10,000 pages and one has about 40 pages). I've noticed that the smaller website is crawled every few days. However, the larger site hasn't been crawled in a few days. Although both campaigns state that the sites won't be crawled until next Monday, is there any way to get the crawl to start sooner on the large site? The reason that I've asked is that I've implemented some changes that will likely decrease the amount of pages that are crawled simply based upon the recommendations on this site. So, I'm excited to see the potential changes. Thanks, Brian
