Can I use the keyword explorer to find negative keywords?We focus on a few things in our business that we focus on but the feedback that I get from the tool is not helpful
-
All in all,this business focuses in a very small area,and there are things that others in our business do that we do not.Yes,a guy that knows nothing about SEO...
This is a junk removal business,and some of the competition do everything.This is a small outfit that only hauls junk.Much of the competition that we have sells junk bins,we do not.We just haul junk..we do not paint,or any of the things that they do.
I just keep getting things sent to me me in my list here about bin sales etc,and it is making impossible to search for keywords without a way to manage what is coming in some way..Google let me do this,but I am just hoping to use this tool entirely if I am going to pay for it.Maybe I am lost being new,and confused.
How can I use this tool?
Are there any settings,or anything that you can teach a non SEO minded guy like me?
Thanks

Thanks my friend.
I suppose that the more that I mess with it the more it will fall in to place.
So far I have been able to remove some of the thing's that we do not use from our path.
thanks

Negative keywords would have their biggest value as a way to filter out unproductive queries in paid search... not SEO.
Yes, the keyword explorer can help you build a long list of negative keywords for your adwords/paid search campaigns. As such you could use those negative keywords on the adgroup, campaign or account level and save your client alot of money in non-converting clicks.
For organic search, you'd really be using Keyword Explorer to get ideas for keyword phrases you can/should compete for.
Hope that helps!

How to find lost internal links
I've been seeing a large decline in internal followed links over the past couple of months and am trying to figure out the cause. My developer says there have been no changes to the site that would cause this. Is there a way to find what internal links have been lost?

URL column of Link Explorer reports do not have the protocol (http or https)
I exported from Link Explorer. In the URL column, there is no protocol for each URL. Isn't the protocol part of what makes a url? I'm crawling each with http:// and https:// but it feels like this info could just be in the report. Am I missing a step?

Can you do custom date comparisons in Moz?
The only options I see in the tab is weekly and monthly. What if, for example, I wanted to compare stats over a 3 month period? Or compare stats from the same month last year? Is that possible? Or even the stats from the beginning of a campaign? Do you have to manually track them?

Discrepancy between OSE internal links and Webmaster Tools
Hi, We have been attempting to increase our rankings for our key term for a number of months now, and we are seeing an unusual discrepancy between OSE and Webmaster Tools that we believe may be causing us harm. OSE shows our homepage, www.unionroom.com, as having only 27 internal links (only three of these aren't 301's too), whereas Webmaster Tools is showing just over 1,500 internal links to the homepage. The three pages that OSE are displaying as linking back to the homepage are the homepage, our blog and our accessibility page. These pages are all ran off the same template and have the same header and footer (with three home links spread across header and footer). You can see our confusion! Is this a case of OSE's stats being incorrect (the website has been live for ~6 months) or is there an issue with our in-linking structure that we are missing? Thanks!
