Mozbar and Firefox: Feedback please!
-
Hey MozBar fans, we're thinking of focusing more on Chrome and moving away from Firefox. Our reasons:
- Maintaining two platforms increases development cost.
- Each new Firefox version released takes up to a month to be approved by the Mozilla store.
- There is not as much design flexibility in Firefox.
But we would love your feedback before we make our final decision on this. Would you still use the MozBar as frequently if it was only available in Chrome? Thanks!
-
Hi Mike- yes, this would definitely be included.
Thanks!

If i had specific investigations to carry out i would jump on Chrome and likely use it, as i do now with other tools, yes.
-
Important:
If you do this, please can you add the 'export to csv' feature to Chrome? Currently I don't see it there, so use Firefox for that
If I lost the ability to do the csv export of serps... I'd be upset! Still wouldn't moan too much as Moz has so much else that's great, but I would be upset none the less!
-
I use Chrome and always check moz bar on my searches. Sometimes on a second search on the same keywords on chrome when i add my web branded searches name moz bar does not appear.
But anyway great job.
-
Thanks for feedback! Do you think you would stop using the toolbar completely? Or would you use it in Chrome?
-
Firefox is my primary browser and would be a real shame to lose this functionality, find it very usefull for spotting things during normal browsing and work. Understand why you want to do this however but from my selfish point of view its a shame.
-
Use chrome so cant say I will miss the firefox one much, especially if more awesomeness added! (sorry guys!).
-
or visa versa...
-
I too use Firefox, so would be a shame to loose it, but can understand your reasoning. Maybe if the 100% was put into the Chrome version to make it even more awesome then it would be ok I suppose (if you must).
-
I use Firefox along with most of my colleagues and would much prefer it on Firefox, as mentioned it is nice to have options but I'd hate to see it go to Chrome only.
-
Use chrome regularly but I DO like having the option
-
Hi Kerri,
I use Firefox as my main browser, but I do have a handful of Chrome only toolbars and extensions that I will use if the need arose. Personally I prefer all my favorite tools on my main browser (especially the PA and DA on MozBar) but it's not the end of the world if I need to head over to Chrome for a session.
Thank goodness for multiple monitors!

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

Mozbar - SERP Control Panel - Export to CSV - Update
Hi I asked a question on 22nd Sep and 16th October about Mozbar: "I have been exporting SERP results using the Mozbar, but I don't get PA and DA data even though this is shown in the SERP overlay. The data is shown in excel as being 'undefined'. Anyone else having this problem?" I was told that this was a known issue and a fix would be available within weeks. Is there any update on when this update is likely? Thanks again for your assistance. Neil
