Hello, this is cTory/cRaven. I am frustrated about SEOmoz, and I need someone to help me. On SEOmoz, you have these web crawlers into your Wordpress blog, and it will display "meta tag descriptions missing." They tell you to use Yoast Wordpress seo, and when you get your website crawled agian, it will say the same thing "meta tag descriptions missing." I filled out the meta tag descriptions and titles. It doesn't matter if you use the Yoast or the All in One seo plugin, it will say the same thing. I am not even getting any visitors either.

Also, other then that, is there anything else they do instead of crawling your pages? In SEOmoz, where are the building links, article submittions, backlink indexers, social bookmarking, rss submits? And my most favorite thing about seo, blog networks submissions. If SEOmoz doesn't have anyother features to give you traffic, why on earth would anyone spend $99/month? lol. I never heard of anyone getting visitors by adding just meta tag descriptions. If someone tell me what is the catch of SEOmoz, I may change my mind.

I am new to white hat traffic solutions. I need to use SproutSocial and SEOmoz correctly before my 30 free trial expires by June 8th 2012. I am used to the cool gray hat solutions from SEO Link Robot and Magic Submitter like blog networks submissions, link building, article submittions, backlink indexers, social bookmarking, rss submits, creating email accounts and verifying them, etc. And soon, I can get my hands on black hat softwares like Xrumer and Scrapebox for forum posting, and comment blogging.

Attracta is already a waste of time and money to many people. You don't need money for submissions to top 100 websites, you can do that yourself. And their link building tool does not work.

Can someone please tell me what is so great about SEOmoz? I just don't get why is it so popular.

Alexa Traffic Rank, SEOmoz.org
Global Rank: 377

But this main question is, how do you recieve traffic from SEOmoz?

    They dont give you traffic they show you what backlings other websites have and they have a lot of seo resources by that i mean videos and advices , its nothing automated , you just have to read and putt to pracctice. They dont have a software that creates backlinks or generates traffic .

    It's easy to buy popularity once you convince people to give you millions of dollars.

    SEOmoz raises $18 million, Brad Feld joining board — and yes, the deal has closed - GeekWire

    You don't.

    In case, you're serious. No they don't sell traffic. SEOMoz doesn't do any work for you. They teach you how to do it yourself. They are both popular and hated because they teach 'whitehat' techniques that are likely to be within Google's guidelines.

    The $99 you pay is mostly for Open Site Explorer. For competitive analysis and link research, it's more than worth it.

    The other tools I will admit aren't essential and have been of little value to me.

      I've seen a few things on SEOmoz that made me want to leave the site, shaking my head wondering If their anything more than SEO 101. Maybe their focus is all about people new to SEO (IDK), I'm sure it's the largest audience as far as related traffic.

      I think SEOmoz is best at selling their brand, because I don't see much effort going into content besides basic SEO that you can get directly on Googles own help pages.

    Their linkscape index is cranky at best, takes ages to update. There are better paid tools for getting the info you need like Majestic SEO.

    The only way your gonna get traffic from SEOMoz is to sign up, create a profile and do some guest posts, get some juicy backlinks...

    Juicy backlinks sounds like something they would sell at outback steakhouse.

    The SEOmoz premium service is actually pretty good. I'm not a fan of the Open Site Explorer, but they do have some other tools that are extremely helpful.

    Give the 30-day free trial a try and see what you think!
