Does Moz offer a tool to measure competitor web visitor traffic?

Does Moz offer a tool that does something like https://www.quantcast.com/ ?

There's few tools online offering traffic estimate service. In my opinion none is accurate enough to be relevant. you just need to try them with url of websites you have log access to see how poor their guess are.
as far as i know moz doesn't offer such a tool
if i have to name one of those tool i would name semrush, when I tested it's accurancy I found it to report traffic volumes between 10% and 100% wrong, which is more accurate than many others and it's still giving you an idea of a website traffic

Not exactly. You can however infer some traffic amounts when you're tracking keyword rankings against competitors in a Moz Analytics campaign. You can also get a good idea of how much engagement or traction a competitor is getting from social via tools here as well. Fresh Web Explorer is great tool for the News side this question--tracking sites that are writing about brands, topics, and so on. There's a decent comparison and test on Quantcast and others here: http://moz.com/blog/testing-accuracy-visitor-data-alexa-compete-google-trends-quantcast. Just remember, you'll never know the true numbers unless you have server logs and analytics access.

Utilizing the Moz Location in keywords vs including the location in the actual keyword phrase
I've searched the Moz blog as well as Q&A forums - but I specifically have a question about utilizing the Moz Location in keywords vs including the location in the actual keyword phrase. I've done both and get different rankings. For instance, I have "it company" with the Location set to Corpus Christi, Texas and our rank is #3. Then I also have "it company corpus christi" with the Location set to Corpus Christi, Texas and our rank is #6. Additionally, I threw in "it company corpus christi" with the Location set to National and our rank is #7. What is the best practice and what are the determining factors for the differences? Thank you in advance!

How do you use Moz to research related topics?
Like most of the folks here I'm a pretty big fan of the content that comes out through Whiteboard Fridays, and I try to apply the things I learn, but one of the WBF videos that I'm following along with does not do a stellar job of detailing execution using Moz KW Explorer. https://moz.com/blog/related-topics-in-seo-whiteboard-friday Now granted, this came out in 2016, but I still feel the core principle and strategy results in a higher quality piece of content and is still relevant to discovering and understanding searcher task completion requirements, and drafting content that fulfills those requirements. Towards the end Rand sort of mentions that you'll be able to do this with KW explorer, but I'm not really seeing the functionality. The steps I followed were to enter in the keyword in kw explorer, went to keyword suggestions, and selected "based on closely related topics" and ran it, but received no suggestions - came up blank. I then selected "based on broadly related topics" and the same thing happened. I tried this out with the keyword r22, keeping it very broad to start but that didn't seem to work. So what do you all do to perform this sort of research within Moz? Or do you even feel it's relevant in today's Rank Brain driven world?

Statistics for traffic gone
Hi everyone! For one of my campaigns the statistics are gone for all the inbound traffic.The main graph after logging in (with the different shades of blue) is just a flat line. This maybe comes from that I created a filter in google Analytics some weeks ago (so that I have some introspection into the used keywords that people search for). But also after the deletion of this filer in GA the statistics are still gone. What can I do? Cheers Marc

Why does the moz crawl test lists page twice?
Hi, I'm running into an issue where some crawlers list my pages twice, once with a trailing slash, once without. I first saw it on a few pages with screaming frog, then saw it happen on all my pages with the moz crawler. The site is www.kidsandart.org and its on Squarespace. I grepped the sitemap.xml I submitted to google webmaster and got 167 distinct pages, all of them without a trailing slash. Any insights on why this is happening, and how to regard moz crawler results would be appreciated. thanks Tom

How to make sense of data for this keyword (Moz Keyword vs. Google KW Planner)
The keyword "auto immune disorder" has an avg monthly (local/US) search of 880 in Google KW Planner with "low" competition In Moz, the same keyword has an avg monthly (local/US) search of 5 with a KW difficulty of 71%. I realize that the competition in Google KWP is based on ads, but is there a discrepancy when the search volume is so different in Google vs. Moz/Bing? Based on the above data, it seems like it would make sense to do a Google Adword (high search volume, low competition) instead of trying to rank organically...am I on the right track here? Thanks!
