Still not got any index update data.
-
Is anyone finding that they haven't got the results of the update yet? I have tried some competitors and they are not updated either.

Hi Trevor, Andrea from the Moz Help Team here Our Index rolled out yesterday and the blog post went live this morning, I'd recommend checking that out as well as the Q&A thread from Rand that it mentions which covers fluctuations (or non-fluctuations) with PA/DA scores. Hope that helps but we're available to assist if there are any other questions!

Not sure if it's because I'm UK based, but my index data has not been updated yet either.

API v1 still gets new data?
Hello! Do the v1 API endpoints provide fresh data, or do I need to use the v2 endpoints for fresh data? According to the v1 API docs "This guide outlines the endpoints for now archived Mozscape API endpoints." Does this mean that the v1 API only serves archived data? Thanks!

Moz Api Integration with Google Data Studio
I want to automate my competition research process. Right now my competition research is completely manual which is ok if working in a small project. Usually, start looking at Google for the best sites for a specific niche. In an excel sheet insert the URL in a column and start to put information in next columns, information such as DA, PA, backlinks, page speed, schemas validation and stuff like that. As I mentioned for a small project I usually take 10 websites as a reference to analyze how difficult can be rank a website. The problem starts when I have to scale when I have to evaluate 100 or 200 or even more websites in different niches or target location or industry. Does not make sense keep doing manually. So my question is there any way to connect the Moz API to Google Data Studio or Google Sheet

January’s Mozscape Index Release Date has Been Pushed Back to Jan. 29th
With a new year brings new challenges. Unfortunately for all of us, one of those challenges manifested itself as a hardware issue within one of the Mozscape disc drives. Our team’s attempts to recover the data from the faulty drive only lead to finding corrupted files within the Index. Due to this issue we had to push the January Mozscape Index release date back to the 29<sup>th</sup>. This is not at all how we anticipated starting 2016, however hardware failures like this are an occasional reality and are also not something we see being a repeated hurdle moving forward. Our Big Data team has the new index processing and everything is looking great for the January 29<sup>th</sup> update. We never enjoy delivering bad news to our faithful community and are doing everything in our power to lessen these occurrences. Reach out with any questions or concerns.

10/14 Mozscape Index Update Details
Howdy gang, As you might have seen, we've finally been able to update the Mozscape index after many challenging technical problems in the last 40 days. However, this index has some unique qualities (most of them not ideal) that I should describe. First, this index still contains data crawled up to 100 days ago. We try to make sure that what we've crawled recently is stuff that we believe has been updated/changed, but there may be sites and pages that have changed significantly in that period that we didn't update (due to issues I've described here previously with our crawlers & schedulers). Second, many PA/DA and other metric scores will look very similar to the last index because we lost and had problems with some metrics in processing (and believe that much of what we calculated may have been erroneous). We're using metrics from the prior index (which had good correlations with Google, etc) until we can feel confident that the new ones we're calculating are correct. That should be finished by the next index, which, also, should be out much faster than this one (more on that below). Long story short on this one - if your link counts went up and you're seeing much better/new links pointing to you, but DA/PA remain unchanged, don't panic - that's due to problems on our end with calculations and will be remedied in the next index. Third - the good news is that we've found and fixed a vast array of issues (many of them hiding behind false problems we thought we had), and we now believe we'll be able to ship the next index with greater quality, greater speed, and better coverage. One thing we're now doing is taking every URL we've ever seen in Google's SERPs (via all our rank tracking, SERPscape, the corpus for the upcoming KW Explorer product, etc) and prioritizing them in Mozscape's crawl, so we expect to be matching what Google sees a bit more closely in future indices. My apologies for the delay in getting this post up - I was on a plane to London for Searchlove - should have got it up before I left.

August 3rd Mozscape Index Update (our largest index, but nearly a monthly late)
Update 5:27pm 8/4 - the data in Open Site Explorer is up-to-date, as is the API and Mozbar. Moz Analytics campaigns are currently loading in the new data, and all campaigns should be fully up-to-date by 4-10pm tomorrow (8/5). However, your campaign may have the new data much earlier as it depends on where that campaign falls in the update ordering. Hey gang, I wanted to provide some transparency into the latest index update, as well as give some information about our plans going forward with future indices. The Good News: This index, now that it's delivered, is pretty impressive. Mozscape's August index is 407 Billion URLs in size, nearly 100 Billion (~25%) bigger than our last record index size. We indexed 2.18 trillion links for the first time ever (prior record was 1.54 trillion). Correlations for Page Authority have gone up from 0.319 to 0.333 in the latest index, suggesting that we're getting a slightly more accurate representation of Google's use of links in rankings from this data (DA correlations remain constant at 0.185) Our hit ratio for URLs in Google's SERPs has gone up considerably, from 69.97% in our previous index to 78.66% in the August update. This indicates we are crawling and indexing more of what Google shows in the search results (a good benchmark for us). Note that a large portion of what's missing will be things published in the last 30-60 days while we were processing the index (after crawling had stopped). The Bad News: August's index was late by ~25 days. We know that reliable, consistent, on-time Mozscape updates are critically important to everyone who uses Moz's products. We've been working hard for years to get these to a better place, but have struggled mightily. Our latest string of failures was completely new to the team - a bunch of problems and issues we've never seen before (some due to the index size, but many due to odd things like a massive group of what appear to be spam domains using the Palau TLD extension clogging up crawl/processing, large chunks of pages we crawled with 10s of thousands of links which slow down the MozRank calculations, etc). While there's no excuse for delays, and we don't want to pass these off as such, we do want to be transparent about why we were so late. Our future plans include scaling back the index sizes a bit, dealing with the issues around spam domains, large link-list pages, some of the odd patterns we see in .pl and .cn domains, and taking one extra person from the Big Data team off of work on the new index system (which will be much larger and real-time rather than updated every 30 days) to help with Mozscape indices. We believe these efforts, and the new monitoring systems we've got will help us get better at producing high quality, consistent indices. Question everyone always asks: Why did my PA/DA change?! There are tons of reasons why these can change, and they don't necessarily mean anything bad about your site, your SEO efforts, or whether your links are helping you rank. PA and DA are predictive, correlated metrics that say nothing about how you're actually performing. They merely map better than most metrics to Google's global rankings across large SERP sets (but not necessarily your SERPs, which is what you should care about). That said, here's some of the reasons PA/DA do shift: The domains/pages with the highest PA/DA scores gain even faster than most of the domains below them, making it harder each index to get higher scores (since PA/DA are on a logarithmic scale, this is smoothed out somewhat - it would be much worse on a conventional scale, e.g. Facebook.com 100, everyone else 0.0003). Google's ranking algorithm introduces new elements, changes, modifies what they care about, etc. Moz crawls a set of the web that does or doesn't include the pages that are more likely to point to a given domain than another. Although our crawl tends to be representative, if you've got lots of links from deep pages on less popular domains in a part of the web far from the mainstream, we may not consistently crawl those well (or, we could overcrawl your sector because it recently received powerful links from the center of the web). My advice, as always, is to use PA/DA as relative scores. If your scores are falling, but your competitors' are falling more, that's not a bad thing. If your scores are rising, but your competitors' are rising faster, they're probably gaining ground on you. And, if you're talking about score changes in the 1-4 points range, that's not necessarily anything but noise. PA/DA scores often shift 1-4 points up or down in a new index so don't sweat it! Let me know if you've got more questions and I'll do my best to answer. You can also refer to the API update page here: https://moz.com/products/api/updates
