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.

Our engineers are working on improving how custom reports are scheduled but it won't affect when the data is collected as that will depend on the campaign creation date. The best day to create a custom monthly report will be either on the 4th or 5th of the month as all monthly collections for the previous month are available by the 4th. So currently the system will schedule the report based on the day it was created which means if you set one up on the 10th of the month, it will generate on the 10th the next month, but once the data is available by the 4th you can always manually export the report at anytime.

Hm, well as long as you have your reasons, but it is very frustrating!
Please take note of my Monthly Report point though, this would solve a lot of users headaches.

Hi Paul
Importing traffic data from Google is a limitation of their API so it's not that we won't import data from previous weeks, we can't. Search engines do not have a way to provide us with ranking history as well so when you are first setting up a campaign it is exactly that moment when we start collecting data but not before.

In the nicest possible way, that's not exactly very useful.
I don't see why I can't make a 'monthly' report at the start, but it does not fill up with information until there is any available. At the moment, i'm having to add a client and then wait for almost two months before I can create a report template for them. Why can't Moz just drag in Analytics information from the past month if it's availabe in Analytics?
As far as i'm aware, Moz does not add anything to it, it just pulls in old data already present but waits to do so.

Hi Paul
Our tool will only build monthly data for campaigns created that have more than 21 days for the same month. Your campaigns created on 4/8 will have April data but not the ones created on 4/9 as it is exactly 21 days but no more. All of those campaigns will have May data by the 4th day in June.
The last 5 campaigns created on 5/23 will have monthly data for June only which will appear in July. To make sure you will have the current month collected for new campaigns we recommend adding them between the 1st and the 7th just to be safe.
Hope this helps!

Moz claims we have meta noindex but we don't
Hi, I'm encountering an issue where moz scan says we have meta noindex, but I have confirmed across several of our pages that this simply isn't true. I have confirmation that the below tag is present: name="robots" content="index, follow" /> I also verified our https header through https://www.webconfs.com/http-header-check.php and see nothing indicating that we are sending any no index headers. Why would the crawler report this when it doesn't seem to be the case? Let me know if I need to provide more information.

MozBar: Page Title (and other data) inconsistent with HTML
In using the MozBar Chrome extension, I have noticed that the data about a page that MozBar displays is sometimes inconsistent with the "head" tag in the HTML of the page. Am I misunderstanding where MozBar is getting the data it is displaying? Other SEO extensions like "META SEO inspector"do not display these inconsistencies. EupH5sG

Download of current keyword rankings WITHOUT historical data
Hi there, I would like to download the current keyword rankings within a campaign without the historical data i.e. I need only ONE row for each keyword. I read an earlier post that suggested setting the data parameters within the last update period but I can't do this on my MOZ interface - whatever I set the dates to, I still get multiple rows for each keyword. I guess there must be a way to do what I need but I can't see it! Please advise. Many thanks

Why do my Moz duplicate content results show me pages with no noticeably similar content?
Sometimes the "Pages with Duplicate Content" results under Content Issues show pages that, from what I'm able to see or otherwise test, have no duplicate content, save for the same navigation that exists on all of my pages. For example, a recent issue said that the following pages had duplicate content:

Are we actually getting accurate data on keyword volumes from Moz (or other sources)?
I have a client who does patio furniture repair and restoration. When performing keyword research in Moz for terms like "patio furniture repair" I see that only 11-50 people in the entire US are searching for this term according to the Moz data. However, running an Adwords campaign currently and our top keyword is the phrase match for "patio furniture repair" which has generated over 100 clicks in just a couple of months in ONE county. Is there a better way to research more accurate results on search volume estimates? This makes organic SEO and keyword targeting hard! Thanks, Ricky

How long after you create a campaign can you see a monthly view in dashboard?
I created a campaign on June 13th, 2017 and It's been about a month & two weeks and I'm still only seeing 'weekly' in my dashboard. I have tried searching how long it takes to be able to view monthly but I haven't found much information. Any help is appreciated! sXEAC8k.png

How do you feel when Moz marks one of your questions as "answered?"
Hi everyone, This is not meant to be snarky at all, so I just want to preface my question with that. So, since the new re-branded Moz rolled out last year, I'm sure many of you have noticed that if you ask a question and it is answered by a Moz associate, your question is marked as "answered." I'm sorry, but I don't like this. Here's why, I'm the one who asked the question. I should be the one who determines if the answer was adequate for me, or if it didn't sufficiently answer my question. This is particularly true when my question doesn't have to do with a customer service issue or a Moz tool question. If I ask a question about SEO, Content, CRO, marketing or any other subject, I feel like it should be me and only me who determines whether or not I feel like my question is answered. In addition to this, Moz is actually depriving themselves of useful UGC by shutting down questions in this way. How? Because when the rest of us who frequent the Q & A see a question that's already been marked as "answered" we tend not to open it, read it and respond, because we think that person has already gotten what they needed....when in fact, it could be that a Moz associate has jumped in and marked their question as answered when it really wasn't. Consequently, we all miss out. I propose/move that Moz associates can only mark questions as "answered" when they pertain directly to Q & A about Moz tools, service and support. All other questions must be marked as "answered" only by the asker or closed as "answered" after they have been dormant for 6 months or more. Can I get a second (motion) ?
