Traffic suddenly dropped from reports
-
Hey,
I have a campaign, where in the past week all the traffic has dropped from the moz report (it registered 3 organic and 61 referral visits and nothing else)
All other data remains. I checked google analytics and it's the same - traffic has suddenly dropped from 300 per day to 10 per day. It happened on April 1st (April fools?).
I thought it could be a www. or non www issue, but this shouldn't affect analytics data should it as you only have on property there?
Site is still receiving usual amount of traffic as I can check with Jetpack (it's a wordpress site)
Any suggestions really appreciated.
Cheers

Hey there!
Your traffic data in your campaign is imported directly from your Google Analytics account. We don't change or alter it, so if you're seeing dropped traffic there can be a few different causes.
If your traffic in your Moz campaign is lower than what you're seeing in GA, this is likely due to a connectivity issue the prevented us from collecting your traffic data on a daily basis. Oftentimes this is caused by expired or invalid tokens. We recommend reconnecting that token to restore traffic data. You can double check this by heading into your Traffic from Search section and switching the timeframe to daily. You may see missing data points from the days it wasn't connected.
If your Moz traffic matches what you're seeing in GA (as it sounds like is the case for you), this might be an issue on GA's end. We would recommend troubleshooting with Google to find potential causes.
Traffic drops can also be due to SEO-related issues. Unfortunately, we can't diagnose SEO root causes for you, but you can definitely use Moz Pro to research why it might have happened. Did you have an increase in crawl errors that might be preventing people from reaching your site? Did a competitor make big strides recently? The Q&A forum is a great place to reach out to SEO experts who might be able to help. You might also consider reaching out to an SEO consultant to look into the issue!

Number of Pages Crawled dropped significantly
Number of total pages crawled on the latest report is about half the number from one week ago. No major changes to the site. Number of issues also dropped (not surprisingly). Why has the number dropped so significantly from week to week?

And are the issues actually cleared up, or just not counted because the crawl is so much smaller?0 -

Ranking Drop for August 2016
We've been working our way back after all Google's been doing this year. We'd been sitting in the 30s most of the year, but even with some improvement in keywords as well as backlinks, we just dropped from 31 to 26. Is there a way to find a report or at least some insight as to why we dropped 6?

Detecting Direct Traffic on Website
Hello everyone,
API | | SarahVonnegut
I noticed that most of the traffic we receive on our website comes from "Direct visits", and after doing further research it seems very difficult to gauge where these direct visits come from. What I was looking to do is find some kind of survey provider that can track visits from direct traffic visitors and poll them specifically on how they heard about us. Does anyone know of a service like this? Thank you for your help!0 -
New Moz reports
The new MozPRo reports do not give me the same level of data as my previous reports on the old platform, including detailed keyword reporting. I recently discovered that even if I schedule a monthly report, I still only get weekly data. Is it just me or is anyone else struggling with these new reports?

Can't remove "insights" section from report.
The items in the "insights" section of the Moz report have an "x" which can be clicked in the designer to dismiss this data from the report. However, these items still shows up in the report anyways. Buggy. How can we work around this bug?

Moz crawl error? DA & Linking domains significant drop.
Hi guys! Our site www.carwow.co.uk appears to have been punched in the face by the latest Moz update. It's claiming our #linking root domains has dropped from 225 to 135 and has subsequently hit our DA from 38 to 35. We haven't disavowed any links and our off-site strategy has been going well the past 2 months. Search performance has increased by around 15% (around 5k sessions) and rankings have improved week on week. Any idea if this is a Moz error? That's almost a 50% drop in linking root domains. Thanks, James
