Hi James,
www is a subdomain. The root domain is the non www version.
As far as I'm aware you cannot change the setting once you have created the campaign. There is certainly no option that I can see in the campaign settings screen.
If the definition above does not clarify for you then best to email help@seomoz.org so that SEOmoz staff can take a look at it for you.
If you haven't already caught up with it, there is quite a lot of really good information in the Pro Help Files
There are also a few pre-recorded webinars on the SEOmoz Webinars page as well as a link to register for the Weekly Intro webinar that happens every Friday morning (Seattle time). I found all of these to be very helpful when I started out my Pro account.
Hope that helps,
Sha

Removing Domains From Disavow File
We may have accidentally included the wrong domains in our Disavow file and have since removed most domains leaving the only very highly rated spammy links (using moz's new spam score)in the file. How long can it take for to google to recognise this change?ThanksMike

Domain authority drop
Hi SEOmoz gurus, The last 2 months I am seeing a drop in the Domain authority for some of my clients. Some of them are old sites. Some are new (less than 6 months old) For the old sites I thought the reason for the drop might be caused by discounting the value of low quality backlinks. But this cannot be the case for the new sites - they have high quality backlinks from newspapers and I can't make any sense of the drop. Has anyone else experienced the same issue? Might this be caused by a change in SEOmoz algorithm? Thanks!

What keywords should I use in my campaign.
I am a chiropractor. I only compete against web sites in my town. Should my key words be neck pain, back pain? Or should it be neck pain Bloomington Illinois and low back pain Bloomington Illinois? I am referring to the campaigns I just started. (I am new)

Why Even Publish Dates for the Next OSE Data Set?
I just noticed on the Linkscape calendar the update that was supposed to happen yesterday is pushed back to the 6th. It would be better not knowing. Is this a possibility? Or use the calendar internally, I don't care. Credibility in any announcement or claim looses muster once you do not do what you say you are going to do over and over again. Just a thought..

Help with On-page Optimization in Campaign Manager
Hi, I don’t know if I am incredibly stupid or am just missing something with the on-page optimization report page. I have 11 key phrases set up covering five or pages. When I grade each key phrase against the page I have optimized for it using the on-page keyword optimization (Term Target) they score A/B’s. The issue I have is the campaign manager on-page optimization report only appears to check all the key phrases against the home page, as it shows several F reports. How do I set it up so it grades each key phase against the correct site page. Thanks Fraser
