Is Moz really able to track G+ properly
-
Hi,
I have invested a good deal of time building a G+ community, from nothing to 137 (as of today) We post regular good quality mini blogs and images. We interact with communities and link back to our our own blog. We don't sell on it, it 100% user friendly content. I am getting 10 or so shares per post and 20 or so likes 2-3 times week. My questions are this:
Why can't Moz track page views or post activities for posts on different communities? With all this work we still not able to fully intergrate G+ into our Moz view of the world
Thanks James

Great,
It would be nice to see 'page views' as trackable metric. I will check out those tools you mentioned to see if it will bring that data in.
We have launched a cross platform promotion and are tracking it by the seat of our pants!

Did you mean G+ communities or Pages? Moz can track G+ pages, not communities though.
I think Moz analytics is more interested in your actual engagement on your page and leaves the stuff outside it, to you. I would advice the use of Circloscope to manage circles for communities but In terms of tracking each move you make in communities then http://www.circlecount.com/communities/ might help a little. Not much, but you might find it useful
Thanks

Best reports for competitive social engagement insights? (Moz or not)
My client, in a large industrial sector, is trying to find or purchase good data for their industry as far as benchmarks for social engagement. While the DIY tools have social trackers, many require you to connect to the account you want to measure - so competitive research is a non-starter. What would you use to build a spreadsheet of social engagement metrics from a set of, say, 10 competitors in a niche vertical (e.g. industrial robotics?)

Facebook and Google+ Not Properly Picked Up
Hello, I have been having issues for some time now getting my Google+ and Facebook activity to show in the social media section of site explorer. Was anyone else having this same issue? I have verified my website to both pages and the Facebook page receives a considerable amount of traffic so it is very confusing to me. Any help is much appreciated. Thank You Steve

Why has SEOmoz added G+ code to multiple pages?
Hi, If you look at SEOmoz's Blog pages, you'll see they have added the G+ rel="publisher" code. On http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1708844 Google says: "A rel="publisher" link from the main page of your website to your Google+ page." Is there any benefit to putting this code into the sites template (adding it to every page of the site) when it could be added to just the homepage? Not a criticism, just curious to know how I should implement the code on my own site (concerned that adding it to the site template is a kind-of link out on every page of my site) Cheers FashionLux

Linking Facebook - Twitter - Website - G+ Profiles
During a spectacular presentation at Seattle Interactive Conference, Rand discussed how Google is able to see linkage between different social networks and a Google profile. Outside of setting up your Twitter feed to send loads of messages to your Facebook fans (or vice versa), is there a best way to communicate the "linkage" between your social media profiles to the search engines? Eg - How do you best signal to Google that your Twitter, Facebook, G+ and your website are from the same entity?
