Is there a way to track mobile rankings vs desktop rankings in Moz?
-
With the new release of Google's mobile algorithm we want to start tracking keywords mobile vs desktop. Any suggestions?
-
I have done that for my mobile domain, m.ramjet.com, and i am seeing the same stats as I have on my desktop version. Any suggestions?

The way that I tracked mobile performance (before my site became responsive) was in GWT. If you go to Search Traffic > Search Queries, at the top of the page select filters, Search > Mobile. This will give you a pretty broad scope of where some of your key terms fall. Here is what you should see.

Jared - so sorry for the delay here! Essentially with Moz we don't separate any data out within a specific campaign but that's not to say you can't do so. For example say you have a website domain.com. if users are redirected to a domain.com/mobile or mobile.domain.com you can set these up as different campaigns so that you can track them separately. If the website is a responsive domain and all of it lives under domain.com and adjusts to the screen size Moz will not be able to track it separately.

James can you elaborate a bit on your answer?
-
Right now we do not have a dedicated workflow for mobile vs. desktop pages however if they are contained in their own sub folder or sub domain you can set up a campaign used Advanced Features in the campaign setup.

At the moment a few workflows can include addressing any errors in "Mobile Usability" in GWT under Search Traffic; looking at landing page performance under Audience >> Mobile >> Landing Page as a secondary dimension and comparing that to results in desktop; and parsing out mobile visits with secondary dimension as source / medium (looking at google / organic)...
Not very exacting, but you should be able to get an idea pretty quickly of whether or not mobile is performing drastically different than desktop percentage-wise.

Lack of UK Keyword Volume Data In Moz
Is it just me or is there a considerable lack of keyword Volume data for UK Google search terms on Moz? I have 53 keywords and not a single one has any keyword volume data - these are not obscure terms and include the following as examples... leather satchel, leather laptop bag, satchels, leather bag, leather backpack, leather school satchel. Without this information aren't a lot of the services offered by Moz rather academic as it is impossible to know which terms are really worth targeting. What is the solution? I could use US data and hope it is similar but this seems close to a deal breaker for UK subscribers.

Crawl Diagnostics: Exlude known errors and others that have been detected by mistake? New moz analytics feature?
I'm curious if the new moz analytics will have the feature (filter) to exclude known errors from the crwal diagnostics. For example, the attached screenshot shows the URL as 404 Error, but it works fine: http://en.steag.com.br/references/owners-engineering-services-gas-treatment-ogx.php To maintain a better overview which errors can't be solved (so I just would like to mark them as "don't take this URL into account...") I will not try to fix them again next time. On the other hand I have hundreds of errors generated by forums or by the cms that I can not resolve on my own. Also these kind of crawl errors I would like to filter away and categorize like "errors to see later with a specialist". Will this come with the new moz analytics? Anyway is there a list that shows which new features will still be implemented? knPGBZA.png?1
