Time out writing responses to Moz Q&A
-
This is driving me crazy and making me wish to destroy everything I can reach with my hands.
I like to write long curated answers to people questions on here. And evidently there's some sort of timeouts in Moz Q&A software.
Because every time I answer to someone I get this fu#@!ng error message...
So I go back, I lost everything and either give up or write one sentence.
-
Hrm... I'll do some digging to see if I can find anything odd/off. And ask some of our other frequent users to see if they're having the same issues.
-
It's a couple of weeks I experience this from different computers. If I write a short answer like this one I have no problem. If I spend some time writing is more likely than not to happen.

Hi Max,
Sorry to hear about frustrating timeouts. Definitely the worst! Forum usability is definitely something we keep an eye on. Right now, there aren't any known bugs surrounding timeouts.
I do suggest deleting your cookies and cache as this could be a cookie fail.
Please do let us know if the problem persists.
Thanks!

This happened to me recently as well. Very frustrating.

That's what I am doing when I remember doing it. But I think someone at moz should look into the error.

If this happens to you often, I'd suggest you either:
- Highlight your entire answer and copy it before you click "Post Response". Even if you get an error, you can just return to the question and paste your response.
- Write your answer somewhere else, and then paste it into the Response box in Moz Q&A. That way you have it somewhere else and can't actually lose it.
This is assuming the error you're receiving is a timeout. If it turns out that it isn't, I'd email help@moz.com.

Can Moz Keyword Explorer help target keywords for Google Images results?
I'm wondering if I can use Keyword Explorer (or maybe another tool?) to target keywords for image rankings. I'd like to play around with optimizing images so that they appear in search results and thus provide traffic - but wasn't sure the best way to track that kind of progress. My ultimate goal is to analyze the difficulty of ranking for a certain keyword via Google images. (I do know to optimize alt tag/title tag/place in relevant article etc, but wanted to know if I could research the difficulty). Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Why is Moz Crawling More Pages Than My Site Actually Has?
Hi I have a site that only has 5k pages but Moz has crawled 50K pages on the site when I initiated the site crawl. I don't exactly know why Moz is reporting me back so many pages but I was wondering why this is and if any of you out in the Moz community know anything about this. Thanks

Moz is reporting weird email address URLs as 'Meta refresh' errors? Anything to worry about?
Under site crawl, Moz is reporting weird email address URLs as 'Meta refresh' errors. The URLs are: http://support@ihasco.co.uk and http://enquiries@ihasco.co.uk Once clicked, they redirect to our homepage. Anyone else ever had this? Is it anything to worry about? I don't think it is, but would be good to get some reassurance.

Are MOZ Analytics dashboards available for other timeframes than the week just gone?
Hi Guys, We're wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to get moz analytics dashboard reports for timeframes other than just the last week? When we view the dashboard report, under the heading there is a 'timeframe' dropdown, however it only ever shows us the previous week as an option. Would be great if anyone knows if this is available now / soon? Cheers, Camille@Trilogy

Moz showing warnings for each dynamic link despite canonicalization?
As you can see in the attached image, Moz is showing a warning for each dynamic URL despite a rel=canonical tag. Is this by design? If so, it is frustrating seeing as it is really just the one page with many links . . . 9h5oDmr.png
