Moz / more changes on the way?
-
I love Moz and the community and all the tools here. I admit I haven't rolled around in all the new things rolled out a few months ago.
I thought there were more changes on the way but I wasn't sure if those already happened and I missed them or if I need to be patient?
Affiliate program, client reporting?
Thanks for any response. Have a great weekend!

Hi Matthew,
Thanks for the question. There are a lot of changes and improvements that were already rolled out with Moz Analytics. Some of the more prominent ones include:
- A more robust custom reporting platform
- A new integrated brand & mentions section that allows you to track mentions of branded terms, competitor mentions, and industry conversations.
- More integrated link data with link opportunities called out
- An expanded rankings section
- A new traffic-focused dashboard showing metrics and progress across your different inbound channels
- Matt Brown wrote a field guide to the tool soon after launch which provides some more details: http://moz.com/blog/a-field-guide-to-moz-analytics
- Another addition you might not know about is a new alerts feature as part of Fresh Web Explorer. This allows you to set up email alerts anytime your brand is mentioned in web content that was recently published. It's like Google Alerts, but more robust.
All that said, this is a platform that we are very actively working on. A few things that are up and coming in Moz Analytics:
- Monthly timeframes, which will allow you to see your data broken down by month for higher-level views and comparisons.
- Better interfaces to gain insights now that so much keyword data is Not Provided
- A little further out: A new section focused on measuring the effectiveness of published content and finding ways to make your content marketing more effective.
We are also focused on making improvements to some of our most popular tools, like Open Site Explorer and Fresh Web Explorer.
We went through a period in which our tools were a bit stagnant while we worked to ship the Moz Analytics platform. Not that it's out, we will be shipping new capabilities and features very frequently.
If you have specific features you are looking for, I encourage you to add them to our feature request forum. We try to make sure we respond to each request so you have an idea of where it lies in our current priorities.
I hope that helps. Let me know if I can supply any more details.
Best,
Adam

Hi Matthew,
Thanks for the post and glad to hear you're enjoying Moz Analytics!
Regarding the Affiliate Program, it's been placed on hold for the moment. I'm not sure when it will be renewed, but I'm sure it won't be too long. And I'm not sure what you mean by client reporting, but custom reports for campaigns are now up and running. We're hoping to have the monthly time frame up by the end of Q1 and multi seat out by the end of Q2. Hope this helps!
Best,
Sam

Accuracy of Moz Keyword Tool
I understand that no search tool is entirely accurate, but I'm seriously beginning to doubt the accuracy of the Moz keyword tool search volumes for keywords. For example: I entered "largest police departments" and it says 0-10 per month in the US, despite the fact that that term is directly responsible for 200 hits per day. Many alterations of that keyword come up with 0-10 or not determined. This is not a small error -- and it repeats over and over for other search terms that I have already ranked for in the US. It's gigantically inaccurate in a massive scale.

Moz Keyword Tool Monthly Volume
Ive recently put together a Keyword List of about 100 keywords on the Moz Keyword Explorer tool. One keyword, aerial filming, stood out as very low search volume of 51 - 100. I took the same 100 keywords and passed them through the Google Keyword Planner by Google AdWords. Aerial Filming has an average search volume of 1k - 10k according to the Keyword Planner. Even though Keyword Planner gives me a range of 1k - 10k, the lowest number is still 10 times higher than what the Moz Keyword Explorer was indicating. This drastic difference of volume was consistent across all 100 keywords. All of the Monthly Volume numbers were divided by 10. Why does Moz Keyword Tool display a search volume that is 10x less than what Google Keyword Planner is suggesting?

Moz Rankings vs DuckDuckGo
Hello, So we have a client that’s only interested in a handful of keywords. We would like track his rankings through a Moz Campaign but he currently uses Duck Duck Go to check them. Strictly from an accuracy perspective (and not necessarily added features like Mobile Rankings) is there any arguments we could use to convert them to Moz? If not we will let them know but any input would be appreciated. Looking forward to hearing from all of you! Thank you in advance for the help. Best,

Performed a Moz Crawl Test - Says I have 107 External Links on Homepage??
Hello Mozzers! Exactly at the title suggests, I performed a crawl test on one our sites and the report says we have 107 external links on the homepage and another 34 on one of our internal category pages. On both of these pages I can only find 7 external links, anyone know why the crawl test is saying this? And if Moz is finding these external links could google be doing the same and punishing our site for the high number of external links? Any response appreciated! Richard

MOZ On Page Grader Not Seeing Changes
Hello all, I've been doing some SEO work recently and using the really handy A-F rating on MOZ on page grader as a guide. It's worked great so far on my sites up until today. I've made some small changes to a site such as the title and MOZ isn't seeing these changes. For example if I were to put 'banana' in the title of one of my other sites and re-run the on page grader with 'banana' as a keyword, instantly MOZ would say this keyword is used in the title once. I've done the same to another site and the same thing hasn't happened. I did a test and wrote all the keywords from the title in the on page grader and it still said they appear 0 times in the title. Am I missing something here? The site is different from the others, it's flat html and not CMS, but the SEO changes I've made are still the same. Thanks!

On Page Grade - Moz Analytics
When I go to search overview I can see my on page optimization grades, but when I try to use the on page grade optimizer for different keywords and url's I get the error. "The URL you entered does not appear to be returning a page successfully. Please make sure that you've entered the URL of valid, working page." However, I know it is a valid url and I get the error even if I use the same url and same keyword I can see the grade for from the search overview. Also, if I try to regrade the page nothing happens and where my previous grade and analysis was located I now have nothing. Any information about why this is happening? Thanks for the help.
