Moz Tool Bar Annoyance - How do I make the green keyword difficulty box go away?
-
A highly annoying light green keyword difficulty box just started showing up to the right of the search box. How do I make this go away?

Glad the reinstall got it working for you.
There's always the API route too for more custom needs. I'm a long time user as well but can get why they alter tools to display more of their toolset. It's likely a tested value-add for many and newer subscribers. Cheers!

Thanks, Jamie. So uninstalling and re-installing did the trick. Thank you. There is now a whole "new" look. My Mozbar used to provide data on black backgrounds. This is now light grey - and the three modes you describe now work. I have to tell you, I really long for the "old Moz days" when the tools were straightforward and simple. They accomplished very specific tasks. So you used a series of them independently, but they were elegant in their simplicity. Nowadays, Moz tools are so over-designed to try to "do" everything for you all at once. Why we need 3 different modes for a toolbar is beyond me. Sigh. If I could have the old Linkscape interface back, I would take it in a minute. I would also take back the old Rank Tracker. I would change OSE back so you can see the full URLs of your backlinks on screen without having to download all the time. Longing for the good ole days. #rantover

Hi Jen,
Do you have the bar in "DA mode?"
Click it once to put the bar into DA mode which is "half off" or click it again to disable it.
If you don't get those different modes when clicking the "M" button I would uninstall and reinstall the chrome ext.

Hmm. Could be a bug because for me it stays off while using Chrome as a browser. Can you share your browser and OS specs? Staff should be able to better trouble shoot after that. Cheers!

Thank you, Ryan. But, that does not make it go away permanently. Every time I enter a query, it reappears. I'm a Pro member since the days of Linkscape and I am usually signed in. This is so highly annoying, especially since I have to screen grab a lot. I have been using the Moz Tool Bar since inception and this just started happening. Was there a new release? At this point, I am going to uninstall the extension and use OSE directly. If someone knows how to disable this permanently, please advise.

Hi Jen. If you click the Moz "M" to turn off the tool bar it will go away. Click it on if you want it and other features to display again. Cheers!

Moz claims we have meta noindex but we don't
Hi, I'm encountering an issue where moz scan says we have meta noindex, but I have confirmed across several of our pages that this simply isn't true. I have confirmation that the below tag is present: name="robots" content="index, follow" /> I also verified our https header through https://www.webconfs.com/http-header-check.php and see nothing indicating that we are sending any no index headers. Why would the crawler report this when it doesn't seem to be the case? Let me know if I need to provide more information.

A good ranking Tool to generate reports for multiple markets
Hi, Unfortunately, Moz doesn't offer any feature to generate 1 report with the multiple keywords I have across different campaigns. Since I am running around 10-11 campaigns, it's quite time consuming to create the reports manually. Could you please suggest any good tool/service that can generate a report for multiple keywords across different campaigns ?

Google Penalty Tools?
Does Anybody heard about this tool? http://fruition.net/google-penalty-checker-tool/ ? Why MOZ cannot provide the same tool with all the inner and analytic data Rogers have? Did you see a penalty tool alike? For the recent two updates, I think that there is no real "penalty" per-se. Most of the sites I checked lost position on some keywords, and gained better position on other sets of keywords. If this statement is true - We need no tool at all 😉
