Connect to Google Analytics problem (Moz Analytics)
-
Hello - I recently received the Beta invite to Moz Analytics (very excited). I set up the campaign for our primary site and entered our Google Analytics profile - however, Moz does not seem to accept the profile when I click the "Save" button. All of our profiles are listed w/in the drop-down menu, but after selecting the profile we wish to link/connect to - nothing happens. So we're not receiving any stats w/in Moz from our GA acct.
Please help. I'm really anxious to begin delving into Moz Analytics!
Thanks

Hi Keri
I have managed to connect my GA account a few days back (on Oct 12 I believe) but most of MOZ analytics pages are still showing:
"We are collecting your data now. Check back within 24 hours."
Is this normal? If not what can I do to fix it or could you put me in touch with support?
Thank you vm

Hi Ryan,
Have you followed up with the support ticket that Peter started? That's the best place for an individual issue like this. Thanks!
-
Still unresolved. Moz Support - please flag this as still an open issue.
-
For those who had a problem connecting in the last few hours, please try again. We did have a GA problem overnight that's been fixed. Thanks for your patience!

I'm still not able to connect to my GA account. I see the list of available GA profiles for my GA account listed in the drop-down menu w/in the Google Analytics section of the Traffic Settings. But, as soon as I select the profile I want to connect to, the "Save" button doesn't work.
Moz staff, please help!

I had a situation at a different site that required me to connect my GA account.
My business website's GA profile used to be linked from my personal Google Account. After incorporating as a company, I created a new Google Account and created a fresh GA profile. So I had two tags. When using that other tool, I accidentally connected my personal GA account whose tag was no longer on my business site and it didn't seem to do anything.
It was just something to consider if you were in such a situation.
-
It appears you need to Disconnect from GA and then Reconnect to make it work.
-
Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "and the site has tags of the second account"?
-
Do you possibly have more than one GA account and the site has tags of the second account, i.e. other than the one you are trying to connect?
-
I'm also having a problem with GA. I get a message for all of my accounts that I need to update the GA connection. I go to Setup and click Update. However I keep getting the message that I need to update the GA connection.

Why can I see 404 pages in Google Analytics but nothing in the On-Demand Crawl?
Hello, I'm looking at some Google Analytics data for a website and can see a few 'Page not found's among the Page Titles, looking like these are 404 errors. To get a full list of what's 404-ing so I can get these redirected, the Moz on-demand crawl of the website has come back with no major errors and just a few metadata ones. Does anyone know any potential reasons why the audit has drawn a blank, and is there another way to get a comprehensive list of 404s, as I'm aware the Google Analytics data may not be covering all of them. Thanks very much Becky

Moz Keyword Explorer how long does it take to gather metrics
Looking at some low volume keywords, I get lots of "Gathering Metrics". These don't seem to be updating with metrics. How long does this typically take, should I set and come back in a couple of hours, overnight? Should I leave the screen open, or will this stop it working? Justin

Why'd Moz stop showing the list of users?
Curious to know if anyone else noticed that Moz stopped showing most of the active community users http://moz.com/community/users. It was nice to see who's who from visiting profiles and try to connect with them via email or see their websites, etc. There used to be pagination at the bottom. Why did they stop?

Optimise your Pages in Moz Crawl - where do the keywords come from?
I am just going through my first Crawl stats from the MOZ analytics Under the pages to optimise section I have pages that I have optimised for my best keyword with an A grade that are showing as an F grade and suggesting a different keyword? Where is this keyword coming from? I am assuming that my page has been analysed and a better keyword has been recommended? Can anyone advise? Thanks Roger

Open Site Explorer Problems
I've been checking open site explorer for months now. It doesn't show any changes in the number of root domain links to any of my pages, even though webmaster tools shows a substantial increase in root domain links for each of these urls. Open Site Explorer doesn't seem to be updating. According to Moz, my site is regularly indexed by Moz. But the numbers don't change. I've tested this on a few other sites as well with the same results. How do I get OSE to update the numbers for a particular website?

Moz reporting reliable?
I have been working with our MIS department on addressing our errors on duplicate content and titles caused by parameter URLs. MIS insists that they have solved the problem with canonical tags, which are in place. They said they were getting warnings from Google and Bing, but that after they put the canonical tags in place, those went away. They are questioning the Moz reports, suggesting that I instead rely on SEO Toolit by Microsoft. (As an aside, we are using SharePoint 2010, crossing our fingers for an upgrade to 2013, which presumably will make a lot of the issues we’re having go away). So my questions are: 1) Why are these Moz reports reporting all of these errors that have supposedly been rectified (in 2011)? Do I disregard the duplicate content/title errors on the Moz report and defer to SEO Toolkit, as MIS suggests?
