What to believe Google's Comp or Moz's Opportunity/Potential graph
-
Hi!
I'm newbie and I really don't know which info is best to dial in with the keywords. Google tells me that my keyword is in high competition, but Moz suggests that I have very high opportunity and potential with low difficulty with the same keyword...
Maybe I need some sleep and come back later :-).
Many thanks!

Thanks! Now I understand the main difference a lot better!

Hi Papa -- Google's number is for paid search. They're just telling you how much competition there is for the paid/AdWords results. Moz's KW Explorer tells you difficulty for the organic (non-paid) results. They're two entirely different things! More here: https://moz.com/help/guides/keyword-explorer

Trying to connect Google Analytics account But it's not listed in the drop down box
I'm trying to connect a Google Analytics account but when I go through the drop down box with our list of clients it doesn't show up. It is listed in our agency Analytics account. We have 30+ accounts on GA. Any reason why the account wouldn't make it into the list? Thanks, ~Anjolie

Moz Analytics - Custom Report Question
Hello Moz Forums! I'm having problems building custom reports for my clients. So, i've managed to put together a few reports and I've set these to be scheduled for weekly automated emailing! Now, here's the problem, before sending it to my clients, I was testing this by sending it to myself. This is what I receive: http://www.freelance-seo.co.uk/images/Moz.png I don't really want my clients to see 'By Moz!' everywhere when I send this out, is there a way to change this automated mail? Or a way to just just send the PDF without a link? Alternatively, have I just failed in using this product? Edit: Just to clarify! The 'simply change your report settings' option, just takes me to an option to edit the report title, not the email in any way.

Can I use wildcards "*" when setting up a new Moz campaign?
Basically I would like the Moz crawler to focus on a specific section of our domain. We do not bucket things via folder groups, so the use of wildcards would be applicable to us. Our URL structure: www.domain.com/some-stuff-here/p12345 Is the example below a valid input to track the above URL structure? www.domain.com//p Thanks.

Is there a difference between Moz Pro and Moz Analytics?
I thought that Moz Analytics was now included with Moz Pro. Is this true? I have Moz Pro and I was using the beta version of Moz Analytics back in October. When I log into Moz Analytics, the latest data stops at October 27th and there is no data after that. Is that an indication of when my trial period ended? I have the basic Moz Pro, does that include Analytics portion? Thanks!

I can't add Google+
I just signed up for the beta analytics, when trying to add our CEO Google plus it asks to create a new G+ profile? Why can't I add her Google + without creating a new one?
