Michael,

It's the same - just the wording is different. For some reasons Analytics prefers to use sessions instead of visits.

rgds,

Social Visit in the dashboard

Hi there, the social visits in the dashboard look like are collected just from facebook social network. In fact if I check the social report in Google Analytics the number of facebook referrals sessions is the same of the number of Social visits from MOZ Dashboard. What's the reason why? How can I resolve this problem including visits from Linkedin, Pinterest and other social network in the Social visits in Moz Dashboard? Thank you

Other Visit in the Dashboard

Hi there, I would like to understand if in "Other visit" could be included traffic from adwords. I see a 97% decrease of this value concerning of my internt site and I need to understand the reason. I switched out an Adwords campaign last month, so I thought this decrease could be related to this aspect. Thank you. Massimiliano

I'm setting up a new campaign and getting the error "This does not appear to be a valid URL" What's wrong?

I've tried multiple times (over 2 days) with every variation of the URL with no luck. Any ideas for why the URL does not seem to be working?

What is the "other" group in traffic to your site on the moz dashboard ?

What is the "other" group in traffic to your site on the moz analytics dashboard ? "Not provided" is in search - organic search history so it's not that.

How do you "Moz Crawl" a website? Newbie...

Hi everyone; I've used Screaming Frog in the past and it's simple: you enter the URL to the box and click "start" and.. voila: as the button says, the crawling starts. I've had the Pro version of Moz for a while now and haven't really 'done' anything with it. I'd like to crawl a website and thought it would be as easy as it's always been with Screaming Frog... but, for some reason, I can't find the 'way' to do it. I find it really frustrating especially cause I feel like an idiot going around in circles thinking I'm missing something really obvious... Until I realised the only solution was to ask here! So... how in the world do you crawl a website using Moz tools? (Pro version) Thanks!
