Color coding on SERP reports
-
Hi,
Can someone explain what the green and grey color coding means on the SERP reports, see attached for example.
Cheers,
Adrian

It looks like some of the light greens didn't capture on your screenshot. Here's what it looks like...
-
The green (and the check mark) show the highest number for the given metric for the serp results. i.e. it looks like result 2 has the highest total links.
The grey (and other green shades) are there to show intensity as a comparison to the other results. The more grey the higher compared to the other results.
It looks like the intensity scale goes from white > light grey > dark grey > light green > dark green (check mark)

Monthly Ranking Comparisons on Custom Reports
Hi, We run MONTHLY Moz custom reports that compares rankings from the previous month, but some of the data just doesn't make sense. As an example, in the previous month’s report our ranking for “keyword X” was #3, when we look at the current month’s report our ranking for “keyword X” is still #3, but it shows that it’s gone up by 3 positions. This position change is not true if you compare to the previous month’s report! How can we know what dates we are comparing against? All the best, Lee.

Past reports?
I have a customer report set up for a client set to send weekly. A couple of weeks ago we didn't get the report and nor did we. I can't see a reason why and I can't see a way to get hold of past reports. Does anyone have any idea of how to do this or if it's even possible?

I'm checking keyword difficulty for two different sites. Would love to view the results by site instead of just one large list. Is that possible? Or would it just be easier to keep the lists separate in Excel and just import when I want an updated report?
I have keyword lists for two sites. Is there a way to label them in the keyword difficulty tool (List A, List B) so I can just view results for a particular site? Or do I need to run the report with List A, export results, delete those keywords, then run the report for List B?

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

How to make client reports?
Want to automate the creation of client SEO reports. There used to be report options I thought. Moz just keeps saying coming soon. But I saw moz posts saying there is a way to get to the old "pro reports". How to get that?
