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?

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

Adwords enhanced campaigns - Specify alternate destination URLs
Morning Mozzers, I am setting up a new campaign for a client, they would like to target mobile devices which evidently i can no longer do with enhanced campaigns; however i have increased the Mobile bid as much as possible and set the default CPC low to try and minimise appearance in desktop search. The client has a desktop and a mobile version of the destination page but the site will not direct users to the correct page based on their device as they are two separate domains. As such i want to know if i can specify an alternate destination URL for an ad in Adwords based on if the click comes from a mobile or desktop device? The other option is to set all my Ads within the Adgroup to have mobile as the device preference and just use the mobile landing page, but not sure if there is a neater solution here? Thanks, Tom.

Trademarked words in in Google Adwords ads - Why do competitors get to use them?
Hi, The keyword I want to use in my ad is trademarked, so they disqualified my ad. The trademark was specifically cited as the reasoning. I tried this across maybe 5 different ads. All disqualified The thing I don't understand is that there are like 10 other advertisers who are actively using this "trademarked" word in their ads. It's not like 1 scooted past Google, there's a ton of advertisers doing it. So how do I get past them or were they grandfathered in or something? FYI... I tried dynamic insert to see if that could my "trademarked" word in the back door, but no luck. Any other ideas? Thanks!

Two google analytics accounts on one site.
I've got a client who is using a third party for cpc ads, to track these we need to give the third party admin access to google analytics. Being that we are seeing massive discrepancies in reported cpc ads and refunds etc.. have been offered, I can't trust that as an admin they won't delete the profile with all data proving reason for refund. Can we create a second google analytics account (not profile) to protect the data? We want to give access to sensis to the new account so we can start seeing the cpc separation in traffic source from now while ensuring the existing account can't disappear.
