Did Moz recently change how it calculates keyword difficulty?
-
Did the keyword tool recently change? What is Grepwords? Why do all my long-tail phrases show as "not available?" Just wondering...
-
I see over 50% "not available" for keyword volumes (when working with swedish keywords). These are not long-tail keywords and Keyword Planner in Adwords show these as having search volume.
How can this be?

Hey Allison!
We did make an unexpected change due to losing access to Bing's API for their search volume. We found that Grepwords' API has access and for an emergency solution we worked out an arrangement to partner with them to restore access to Google's Search Volume, which we lost direct access to a long time ago. We are seeing some long-trail phrases return no results but are not seeing any issues, Google may not have data for those keywords.
Hope this helps!

Links on my website do not get highlighted by Moz bar in Chrome
I've used the Moz bar for many years to quickly figure out if a link is followed or no-followed. I recently used a Wordpress plugin to build lists of subjects and excerpts of pages with appropriate links. An example is at https://www.chicagotraveler.com/chicago-parks/ This is the main Parks section page. Below the map is a set of links and descriptions of each park in this section of the site. The problem is that when I use the Moz bar to look at this page, the links are not highlighted no matter which settings I click on. Followed, No-followed, External or Internal. I've looked at the code and while there is a bit of css nearby the links, they look fairly normal. Does this mean that moz thinks there is something wrong. Do you think google will also ignore these links? Should I scrap the plugin and build and maintain these lists manually?

Moz Crawl Report showing non-existent Duplicate Errors since new reporting layout
Hi Moz Community, Since Moz changed to the new style of Crawl report, we've seen a jump in duplicate errors for our site. These duplicate errors do not exist and were not present on the Crawl reports before the report change and also we have not made any changes to the flagged pages on our site since then either. When you download the report data in csv it appears that the Moz report is mixing up data for two or more pages on the site. e.g.in csv for 'Page1' data, it will show the meta description for 'Page2' and 'Page2' shows that for 'Page1', so this then gets flagged as duplicate, however looking at the actual Meta description assigned onsite, both Page 1 and Page 2 are completely unique. Has anyone else experienced this and Moz Team - are you looking into this? Thanks, V

Moz Report: Number of Domains linking to Domain
In the Moz report, what does the "number of domains linking to domain" indicate? I'm analyzing our competitors link profile and noticed some numbers as high as 2369232? Is there a form that explains the reports a little more in detail? Thanks,

Can we export branded reports from Moz Analytics Beta yet?
Hey guys, Just looking around the new Moz-alytics (droooool) and it is superb, but are we able to export and build reports from it yet? Or is this something that will be in the final release? Apologies if this has already been asked. Regards! Joe Sturgess
