Google Analytics Constantly Failing to Integrate
-
I am receiving this error daily. What's the story?
There was a problem with your Google Analytics connection on one or more of your campaigns. View your campaigns to reconnect Google Analytics and view traffic metrics.

Hi Unikey!
I took a look at your campaigns and I do see invalidated tokens which would require the above steps but making sure that you are completely disconnecting/deleting the profile from settings in the campaigns which will be the only way to create new tokens. If you see the message return, definitely make sure to revoke the tokens first then follow the re-connect steps.
Hope this helps!

I've been having the same issue for about a month now. Was just looking for a solution when I found this Q&A. I have tried reconnecting and everything goes through ok, but then when I click into any campaign it starts giving me the message again. So, I followed the procedure that David_Lee described above, but sadly got the same result. Any other ideas?
Update: After about 5 minutes the error went away, everything seems to be working correctly now. Perhaps the error message was cached?? or took a few minutes to resolve... not sure. All I know is what David_Lee suggested seems to have worked. Thanks

Hi Aaron
What you may need to do is revoke your GA token and completely re-connect.
-
First log out of any and all google/gmail sessions so you are prompted to log into the appropriate affected account.
-
Follow this link https://accounts.google.com/b/0/IssuedAuthSubTokens. This page displays the current OAuth tokens you are using.
-
Once you reach the page, simply press the revoke button (illustrated on this screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/vjh3KrjRRIe) for services that you are not using right now.
-
Once you are done with, that simply go back to your campaign settings, disconnect your GA profile and reconnect (do not reauthorize or it will not work)
Let me know if this helps!

Hi there,
I think I recall recently reading that Google Analytics was hit by a DDoS attack (which isn't a concern for consumers, just in case you don't know what a DDoS attack is). This had led to many campaigns having the same issue. However, I've personally seen this resolved as recently as today with some of my campaigns.
Bottom line - I suggest performing the reconnection to GA and making sure your information is (still) accurate. I had to do this, and my integration is working well now.
I hope that helps - Cheers!

How can a page have high Google/ organic traffic but show no ranking keywords in Moz?
We have a page on our website with a higher than average number of pageviews, 85% of which came from Google organic search. When I research this page by entering the URL into the "exact page" keyword research tool, Moz says it has no ranking keywords. How can a page be earning organic traffic without ranking for any keywords?

Blocked Resource in Google Index. SSL certificate blocking 718 pages seen in Google Search Console.
My google search console indicates that my SSL certificate is blocking Googlebot. I was wondering if the blocking of my SSL certificate to the GoogleBot is causing any issues. I I'm not sure if this was only blocked recently by Volusion (my host) as a means of accommodating my ssl certificate not being able to address the various url versions of my site, or is this just commonplace and not really harmful to my indexing. I tested one of these "blocked" urls in the robots.txt tester and it showed that the Googlebot was allowed. Could it be just the SSL certificate at the bottom of the page is blocked? Thanks

KW Explorer is Working to Disambiguate Keywords Google Merges Together
Hey gang, Russ Jones from Moz has been doing a ton of heavy lifting work to try to get around the new problem posed by Google AdWords recent change to merged-keyword volume data. But, we're fighting back against this obfuscation in Keyword Explorer. I'm sharing two emails (slightly edited) from Russ about what we're doing here: Introduction to the Problem: Google Adwords Keyword Planner is the primary source for keyword search volume (how often a keyword is searched monthly on Google) for much of the search marketing industry. While Google has grouped together highly-similar terms for a while (especially misspellings), in June of 2016 they dramatically increased this keyword-grouping. This means similar phrases like "keyword rank", "keyword ranking" and "keyword rankings" would all be reported as having the same, combined search volume, rather than their individual search volumes. If you were to take Google's numbers at face value, you might think there are 3,000 searches per month for these 3 terms, when in reality there is only 1,000, divided amongst the 3 terms. How we are addressing it: Moz's Keyword Explorer uses a blend of data sources, not just Keyword Planner, to build our volume metrics. This gives us a distinct advantage in that we can adjust the volume of words that deviate dramatically in one data set verses another. Take for example the phrases "keyword rank", "keyword ranking", and "keyword rankings". While Google Keyword Planner might report all of these as having 1,000 searches per month, Moz Keyword Explorer can detect that these numbers are significantly higher than what our models would predict given our other data sets. We can then adjust the volume accordingly. Moreover, given our huge keyword data set, we can also identify grouped phrases (like these 3) and divide the volume proportionally to what we see in our other data sets. Thus, we address the grouping problem from multiple directions. Here's email #2 from Russ, detailing more of how we're attacking this: I have been working pretty much non-stop on this keyword volume disambiguation problem (finding the real search volume of individual keywords when Google clumps several together). I think I have settled on a pretty good solution and am working on getting it all in. For example... Google Keyword Volume for the phrases "briefcase for women" and "briefcases for women" are both at 3600 because they have been lumped together. My disambiguation script says the singular (briefcase for women) should be 2731 and the plural should be 869. Google Trends roughly agrees with this, showing that the singular is searched more than 2x the plural: https://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=briefcase%20for%20women%2C%20briefcases%20for%20women&cmpt=q&tz=Etc%2FGMT%2B4 Basically, Keyword Explorer should already be providing some more accurate/segmented numbers than AdWords, and in the future, we'll get even better thanks to our clickstream data and our evolving models. Any questions, let us know!

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
