Problems with Moz tools
-
Hello,
I am having real problems with Moz tools.
I can log in to Moz analytics (crawl diagnostics) and analyse one site and I get 2 [internal] duplicate page errors
Yet when I enter via pro.moz.com (crawl diagnostics) I am finding over 100 duplicate page content warnings?
Any idea why this is happening?

Hello Luke, I'd love to help. This is Abe from the Help team at Moz. I don't believe that this should be happening and I'd love to help fix this with you. Can you please send a ticket to help@moz.com with Abe in the subject line and include the site in question? This way, you don't have to public post personal info and I can personally look into this for you.
I am confident that we can get the correct data for you after a quick investigation

I'm in the same boat as David Liu over here. I have submitted a few help tickets over time, and one of the responses I received back is that "The crawl report in PRO is on a slightly different schedule than Moz Analytics." I can understand that a different schedule could mean slightly different results, but in my case, I'm seeing huge differences between the crawlers (hence, I continue to submit tickets for my accounts).

I'd assume Moz Analytics still has some bugs to be worked out. Analytics and PRO report different numbers on virtually everything for our sites, from traffic to keyword rankings.

Keyword explorer tool - keywords by domain functionality
Hi, We have issues with the new searching for keywords by root domain functionality in keyword explorer. We are based in Australia and need rankings for google.com.au, which is what we have set up within our MOZ campaign ranking reports. The explorer tool rankings are way off and not accurate for our site's actual rankings. Also, many of the top, high volume keywords that we are tracking and for which we rank on first page for are not even appearing when I do an explorer search using our root domain. Is the root domain functionality within keyword explorer providing results based on google.com rather than google.com.au? Does this mean that if we are outside the US that we can't use the tool as it is not accurate? Cheers, Damien

Is Moz Bot Broken?
Moz Bot says I have millions of issues with duplicate content. One item says that it has over 50 duplicates! I downloaded the CSV it gave me to look into it. All of my products have many different ways to get them, so I've set up rel=canonicals for the master one. So, I'd assume Mozbot would ignore those. But the interesting thing I've found is that of these 50 duplicates, some of them (on the same CSV I downloaded) are completely different products, with completely different URL's. and completely different titles and completely different meta descriptions and completely different product descriptions. So, 3 questions: Is Moz bot broken? Does it not recognize canonicals? Why is it seeing 3 very different products as exactly the same product? I'm so confused and since I work for a national company, the only way I can give actual examples is through a private message session. I guess I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this issue? Because I'm completely baffled.

Monthly Data Option not appearing in Moz AGAIN
Hello Again, It's a real shame that I seem to come to this forum to only complain about your product again and again. I remember a time when I used to really respect this company, but your tool is absolutely abysmal. Anyway, my latest issue (to add to the pile) is that campaigns that have been in my account for almost 2 months STILL do have options for me to make monthly reports on. What's wrong now? Edit: I just checked the date I added these profiles, it was around the end of last month, so one and a half months ago.

Can the Moz tool identify variations of a Chinese language branded keyword?
We've recently started a trial of the Moz Pro service and are tracking a selection of keywords. Our primary band / product name is 功夫英语(Kungfu English), so we've set a rule that any keywords containing those four Chinese characters (功夫英语) should be marked as a branded keyword. However, in the "Non-Paid Keywords Sending Search Visits" section of our traffic report, we see a few variations on our brand name that are not being marked as branded keywords. (See attached Images). Based on our rules, shouldn't these variations also be marked as branded keywords without our needing to manually add them as such? Or have I misunderstood the intent of this rule? For the English text, the brand rule about words containing "kungfuenglish" seems to have resulted in all of "www.kungfuenglish.com", "http://www.kungfuenglish.com", and kungfuenglish being labelled as branded keywords. However, I'm not seeing the same sort of result with variations on the Chinese keyword, 功夫英语. KedTi1D.png z5bcUIt.png
