      I installed the Moz toolbar and I don't understand it and it covers up important parts of websites and makes them inaccessible. I want to get it off my computer. I installed it in chrome. How do I get it off?

        Hi Bonnie, Linda and Justin are absolutely right. You can follow their instructions to uninstall the toolbar permanently.

        If, however, you'd like to be able to temporarily disable it, you can toggle it on and off using a keyboard shortcut: Cmd + Option + Control + M on OSX, Shift + Ctrl + Alt + M on Windows. You can also toggle it on and off by clicking on it's bookmark icon.

        For a good overview of what you can do with the Moz Toolbar, as well as how to configure it to meet your needs, check out the video at http://moz.com/help/guides/research-tools/mozbar. Best of luck!

          I actually ended up installing it on my home computer as well as my work computer--I find that I have come to rely on it as a quick-and-dirty gauge of the quality of the website I am visiting...

            LindaLV is right. Here are some screenshots to help you out.

            1. Expand the hamburger menu. Then navigate to Tools > Extensions (#1 attachment)

            2. Either disable or delete the Moz toolbar. (#2 attachment)

            That said, I recommend leaving it installed. I don't use it terribly often, but then there are those times that it comes in really helpful. So for most of my browsing, I leave it disabled. If you find it's covering up content while you're browsing, you can just click the toolbar icon to disable it and make it inactive. That's how I browse most of the time. (#3 attachment)

              In your chrome browser, there is a little "hamburger menu" on the top right (three horizontal lines, stacked).

              Click that, go to tools > extensions and you should be able to delete it there.

              ps- What do you find that it covers up?

                Limit MOZ crawl rate on Shopify or when you don't have access to robots.txt

                Hello. I'm wondering if there is a way to control the crawl rate of MOZ on our site. It is hosted on Shopify which does not allow any kind of control over the robots.txt file to add a rule like this: User-Agent: rogerbot Crawl-Delay: 5 Due to this, we get a lot of 430 error codes -mainly on our products- and this certainly would prevent MOZ from getting the full picture of our shop. Can we rely on MOZ's data when critical pages are not being crawled due to 430 errors? Is there any alternative to fix this? Thanks

                Moz not updating the spam score metrics

                Hi Experts, I have done everything to come over the following metrics flagged as spam on my website by Moz, few months ago. But, Moz has not updated the spam score yet. ✓Low MozTrust or MozRank Score - improved from 2 to 4.5
                ✓Large Site with Few Links - My website have more than 6K backlinks
                ✓Small Proportion of Branded Links - My website have a good amount of branded backlinks
                ✓Thin Content - Every webpage on website has more than 500 words content
                ✓External Links in Navigation - There is no external link in navigation other than social media links
                ✓No Contact Info - The proper address has alreay been placed on website footer
                ✓Low Number of Pages Found - I am wondering if there are any standard score or number of links to reach to remove these flag?
                Also, please suggest some ways that will help me improve moz spam score at faster rate. Thanks for your help in advance!"

                Moz Keyword Tool Monthly Volume

                Ive recently put together a Keyword List of about 100 keywords on the Moz Keyword Explorer tool. One keyword, aerial filming, stood out as very low search volume of 51 - 100. I took the same 100 keywords and passed them through the Google Keyword Planner by Google AdWords. Aerial Filming has an average search volume of 1k - 10k according to the Keyword Planner. Even though Keyword Planner gives me a range of 1k - 10k, the lowest number is still 10 times higher than what the Moz Keyword Explorer was indicating. This drastic difference of volume was consistent across all 100 keywords. All of the Monthly Volume numbers were divided by 10. Why does Moz Keyword Tool display a search volume that is 10x less than what Google Keyword Planner is suggesting?
