Exporting Google and Bing Search Results
-
Is there away to get a spreadsheet of the pages indexed for a certain domain in google and bing? i.e. I search google for Site:www.domain.com and I want to export a .csv file of all those domains/pages.
Cheers

There is a chrome extension called "scrape similar" that is useful for doing small batches of stuff like this. However it does have a couple of limitations in that you have to view each page & google will not show you all pages of a large domain. However it is quite easy and effective for sites with under 1000 pages.

The process can be sped up using other tools. I use tool that is designed for black hat forum/comment spamming to do SERP scrapes like that. Even if I did such spamming (I don't), I don't actually think this is a very good tool to do it with. However it is rather good at scraping results from google. However, again you are limited to how many results Google/Bing choose to show you.
If you need a bigger list then log files might be the way to do. You can get a list of all crawled URLs for any particular agent (including the likes of googlebot) from your server logs. Some hosts limit the size of these, so it might be worth checking before you start. However the data does get collected. The downside here of course is that you need access to the logs.
Of course crawled is not the same as indexed. Once you have that list you might need a further step to see which is indexed. Possibly cross-referencing it against google analytics landing pages or querying the google cache for that page (SEOtools for Excel from Biels Bosma is good for this).
Similarly, if you have a definitive list of the URLs on site you could start with that list and query which are cached.
Harder than it seems isn't it? Hopefully one of those methods will put you on the right track.

Google Site search operator showing different results than Search Console
Hey everybody, I am seeing some confusing results. I am seeing that in the back of our Search Console we are showing around 4,500 sites indexed. If I use the "site" operator in google, only 2820 show up... any thoughts as to why that happens?

GOOGLE ANALYTIC SKEWED DATA BECAUSE OF GHOST REFERRAL SPAM ND CRAWL BOTS
Hi Guys, We are having some major problems with our Google Analytics and MOz account. Due to the large number of ghost/referral spam and crawler bots we have added some heavy filtering to GA. This seems to be working protecting the data from all these problems but also filtering out much needed data that is not coming through. In example, we used to get a hundred visitors a day at the least and now we are down to under ten. ANYBODY PLEASE HELP. HAVE READ THROUGH MANY ARTICLES WITH NO FIND TO PERMANENT SOLID SOLUTION (even willing to go with paid service instead of GA) Thank You so Much, S.M.

Screaming frog, Xenu, Moz giving wrong results
Hello guys and gals, This is a very odd one, I've a client's website and most of the crawlers I'm using are giving me weird/ wrong results. For now lets focus on screaming frog, when I crawl the site it will list e.g. meta titles as missing (not all of them though), however going into the site the title is not missing, and Google seems to be indexing the site fine. The robots.txt are not affecting the site (I've also tried changing the user agent). The other odd thing is SF gives a 200 code but as a status tells me "connection refused" even though it's giving me data. I'm unable to share the clients site, has any one else seen this very odd issue? And solutions for it? Many thanks in advanced for any help,

Why is MOZ and Google search Volume so different?
A search term in MOZ shows the monthly search volume to be 49K. In Google, the same term shows the search volume at only 1300 monthly searches. Which do I trust? Thanks, Don

What Is he Difference Between Google UK and Google Great Britain
When setting up a campaign for keywords and selected search engines. I am targeting a UK market so obviously Google.co.uk is my main target. However when I set up the campaign i select Google as the SE but it asks me if I want United Kingdom or Great Britain. I selected United Kingdom and it has been returning 0 results for rankings even though I can physically see them in the SERPS. Does anyone know exactly what is the difference between the UK and GB options. I assume I should of specified GB but not sure. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Google SERP count 100
I'm not finding a clear solution to getting 100 results in the Google SERP. I'm currently using Firefox as I use Chrome for being logged into Google (Gmail, Docs, etc.) I tried the Grease Monkey script, no luck. I tried appending the url with &num=100 (looks like that may have been killed in 2010 which may explain why the GM script isn't working). And it doesn't look like any toolbar, SEOMoz included has that functionality, any ideas or places to look? In addition, does anyone have a good SERP numbering tool? If I do a search and the first page, including Local & Organic has 15 results, when I click over to the 2nd page it starts back at #11, kind of defeats the purpose of using a numbering tool 😉 Any help would be appreciated. Thanks much!
