Will MOZ be updating there tools with regards to the new Meta Description length?
-
Now that Google has increased the number of characters allowed for meta descriptions/snippets when will MOZ be updating the tools to cater for the new lengths?
I'm sure a lot of my Meta descriptions that are being flagged as too long with disappear once updated.
Cheers

Ah this is good news OCD panic over
Thank you for the update

Good news!
It looks like we will be making changes to the max character count for meta description! Keep your eyes open!

Haha!
I do have another option which may help in the interim if it works within your SEO strategy. Because they are all of the same type and if you're confident that you don't need to know about any of them, you can ignore the issue type in your campaign.

Hi Eli,
Thank you for the update. My OCD is kicking in with 1000s of meta descriptions highlighted as being too long. Hoping when it is updated that most will go away

Thanks for reaching out!
We're keeping our eyes on the news — the product team may decide to update our tools to be in line with the new guidelines, it's just not on the roadmap quite yet!

Are there any plans for a Moz connector to Google Data Studio
Hello all, As title reads, are there any plans for a Moz connector to Google Data Studio to help automate reporting? I'm surprised this doesn't exist already because Data Studio is so heavily used. Thanks in advance. Simon

One of my Moz Campaigns was accidentally deleted. Any tips on getting it back?
I had a campaign setup with all of my keywords meticulously labeled and branded. Then by mistake, it was deleted. Is there any way I can restore/get the data back for an accidentally deleted campaign?

Is there a way to filter the new KW lists by KW's that are triggering certain SERP features? (Videos, Quick Answers, etc...)
I've been creating KW lists using the new Moz Pro tool and I love the quick visualization of all the different serp features those keywords are triggering in aggregate, however I'd love to be able to filter the list to see which keywords are triggering videos without having to do a SERP Analysis one at a time to see the listings. Is there a way to do that? Thanks!

New Design on New Ranking Charts
I logged in today to find the ranking chart on a specific keyword changed dramatically. It used to pop up first thing when you went to analyze a keyword and now it's hidden under a pulldown. Which is fine, I will get used to all the new changes. It only took me a few minutes to find it (ha). Is there a writeup on what was reorganized anywhere? I could not see it on the blog (other than the Keyword Difficulty changes but that doesn't say anything about this) or in the Hub. The way it was laid out before was extremely compact. It showed the keyword at the top with the current weekly ranking. Then listed the chart below with the competitors. You could easily get it on a snapshot for management. Now, when you are viewing the chart, you don't know what keyword you are looking at when viewing it on the screen (you have to scroll up - or have a really large monitor) and you have to hover to see what position it's at. If you look at the two attached images, it used to be more compact. I'm not including where the competitors are listed for privacy reasons 😉 but on the old version it made very easily digestible screencaps. Now, I know, I know, it's all there... Yet every Monday I do a snapshot of the top 10 keywords we look at and send it in an Excel file (with VARIOUS other things) and the big boss looks at it every single week. Since he's the one paying and I'm about to hear a complaint shortly, I thought I would send feedback... (I'm trying to check boxes... is Moz Pro called Moz Analytics now? When I look at my campaign, it says Moz Pro... doesn't say anything about Moz Analytics. I feel super old right now! Sorry! 🙂 sIzxEi5b7d vCUukpOrHSdn

Posted by Link on Moz - Broken
I wasn't sure which category to place this in as Support doesnt feature Q&A or the Moz site in general so I dropped it under other research tools to which the Q&A kind of is 🙂 Now I am not sure if it is just me and that you have rectified the issue, but when ever I click on the "posted by" links to the user. I am getting a page not found error. The links in question can be seen in my two grabs and effect all posted by links on the Q&A section of Moz. A simply trailing slash after .com "/" will do the trick 🙂 https://moz.comusers/view/636129 - BROKEN
