I’m very happy to announce an updated version of our Excel Interface to the seoMoz LinkScape / Mozscape API. Your suggestions have been heeded and the new version is a great improvement over the first.
What’s new?
- Run On-Demand: No more auto-updating. Now, just press Alt+F8 to run when YOU want.
- Rate Limiter: Helps to keep us out of the seoMoz doghouse.
Allows 2 URLs to be processed per second.As of early 2012, the rate limit has been changed to 1 URL per 10 seconds. (for free accounts) - Cleaner Spreadsheet: Removed the “raw” seoMoz response and handles all parsing within the macro.
- Conditional Formatting: Automatically compares scores against all others on the sheet. Highlighting opportunities FTW!
- Stand-Alone Macro: Save the macro to your personal workbook and you can run it against any list of URLs. No need to use *this* spreadsheet every time. (minor tweaks required)

********* UPDATE 12/13/2011 **********
Rolling out December, 16th, 2011, the SEOmoz Free API will be severely limited.
The new rate limit for the Free API is 1 request every 10 seconds.
(Compared to 2 or 3 per second that we’ve been running.)
And batch requests for the URL Metrics Call has been limited to 10 URLs for every POST request.
You can read the official SEOmoz API update here.
