I know this is a weird question, I think I have confused myself with different keyword tools. So if you get a score of 10 for your keyword, should you aim to be closer to 1 or 50?

You should aim to be closer to 1, rather than 50.

Why? Because the numbers indicate the ranking or placement of your page on the search results page(s) (SERP). Number 1 indicates a page on top of the search results page (at least for the organic search).

Is there a way to view difficulty for related keyword suggestions?

I'd really like to view the difficulty/organic CTR/priority of suggested related keywords without having to click on each individually - is there a way to do this?

Is there an automated way to import Keyword Rank Tracker data in Google Data Studio?

I am creating an SEO Dashboard in Google Data Studio.
While it's easy to import data from Google Search Console, I have troubles in importing data from Mozzarellas tools. I thought about uploading a CSV file with the ranking to a Google Sheet Document, but I cannot find a way to do this at regular intervals with manual intervention.

Keyword Ranking Report Blank

I have a custom ranking report set up to run every month. The module that shows the overall changes (how many improved, how many dropped, number in rank #1-3, etc.) populates with data, but the keyword ranking for tracked keywords listing is blank for all keywords, all search engines. I haven't changed anything in my campaigns - why is this reporting blank? Thanks!

How does an index page have a higher Authority than the root domain?

So just curious, but on my domain, http://www.bulwarkpestcontrol.com the Page Authority is 59 and the root domain authority 52. That seems odd as it is the same page. Explanation?

How to print segmented keyword lists to PDF?

Hi Moz forum, We're trying to print segmented keyword lists to PDF. Using the 'segmented lists' feature, we have created segmented lists for several different keyword groupings. We are looking to print each list individually as a PDF, but the feature seems to print ALL keywords from the entire campaign. How can we print segmented keyword lists to PDF? Thanks
