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!

Hi
Am a new user too and unable to connect to my GA account. Similar situation to the one described above. Can you please let us know the solution. thank you
-

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.

Links and images in custom css are not recognised by Moz Toolbar or Yoast plugin
Hi, I am building a website in Wordpress and when checking the pages through Moz toolbar or Yoast plugin, I notice that these don't recognise the internal links in custom CSS and the images neither. Here some code to clarify how it is built: [vc_row][vc_column width="1/2"][ultimate_heading main_heading="Veldrijden" alignment="left" main_heading_margin="margin-bottom:20px;"][/ultimate_heading][vc_single_image image="6497" img_size="full" onclick="custom_link" link="http://k488239.hosting.kinamo.be/activiteiten/veldrijden/"][vc_btn title="Meer info" color="mulled-wine" align="left" link="url:http%3A%2F%2Fk488239.hosting.kinamo.be%2Factiviteiten%2Fveldrijden%2F|||"][/vc_column] The links are embedded in images and in 'More info' buttons. Also the internal links in the main website navigation are not recognised, but the normal a href links are recognised. For the images it is a little different: the alt text from the images gets recognised by Moz, but Yoast says there are no images on the page. The only thing I can think of that there is no 'a href' in the links and for the images that it has something to do with the page builder. Can this effect my SEO results? Thanks.

Does "Disallow: /xmlrpc.php" in robots.txt affect moz tools ability to fetch DA?
Just checked a website for Domain Authority using Moz' tool, however it returned 1 for DA, which should be unlikely. I have been trying to find the problem and found "Disallow: /xmlrpc.php" in robots.txt. Could this affect Moz' tools ability to get the required data?

How can I find duplicate pages from a Moz Crawl?
We have many duplicate pages that show up on the Moz Crawl, and we're trying to fix these but it's very difficult because I can't see a way to isolate the code where the duplicate is found. For instance, http://experiencemission.org/immersion/ is one of our main pages, and the crawl shows one duplicate of http://experiencemission.org/immersion. It appears that one of our staff manually edited the source code in one of our pages but forgot the trailing slash. This would be an easy fix but the problem is that this page is linked to internally on our website 2423 times, so it's next to impossible to find the code that is incorrect. We have many other pages with this same basic problem. We know we have duplicates, but it's next to impossible to isolate them. So my question is this: When viewing the Moz Crawl data is there any way to see where a specific duplicate page link is located on our website? Thanks for any and all help!

Suggestion: Moz Domain Authority should take disavow into account
Since Moz is trying to predict how Google ranks your site, and Google claims to take the disavow file into account, I'd like to suggest that Moz allow webmasters to upload their disavow file. I imagine this data would be useful to Moz in determining Domain Authority (they may even think of other ways to use it and might even help come to a conclusion on the great debate) and it gives a chance for sites to improve their Moz DA when they are bombarded by spammy links. I'd love to hear the community's thoughts on this idea, as well as the what Wizards of Moz have to say.

Google Penalty Tools?
Does Anybody heard about this tool? http://fruition.net/google-penalty-checker-tool/ ? Why MOZ cannot provide the same tool with all the inner and analytic data Rogers have? Did you see a penalty tool alike? For the recent two updates, I think that there is no real "penalty" per-se. Most of the sites I checked lost position on some keywords, and gained better position on other sets of keywords. If this statement is true - We need no tool at all 😉

Can we export branded reports from Moz Analytics Beta yet?
Hey guys, Just looking around the new Moz-alytics (droooool) and it is superb, but are we able to export and build reports from it yet? Or is this something that will be in the final release? Apologies if this has already been asked. Regards! Joe Sturgess
