Discrepancy in "np" within in my Moz Report?

| np - /google-structured-data-update/ |In my "New Rankings & Insights | Hill Web Creations" report, while "Google structured data update" moved up significantly, at the same time, "np - /google-structured-data-update/" moved down significantly.
Any insights that would offer a deeper understanding of the discrepancy and how to pull both up?
If this corresponds with Google Analytics, the "np" Acquisitions > Campaigns > Organic Keywords > "Organic Search Traffic" Report, how is Moz rendering is New Rankings & Insights?

So you're tracking "np - /google-structured-data-update/" as a keyword in Moz? If so, you should just delete that because it's not actually a keyword.
The only purpose "NP - /some-interior-site-page/" serves is to regain a small amount of the keyword data GA took from us starting back in 2011. See this article for more details: https://blog.kissmetrics.com/unlock-keyword-not-provided/

It comes for YOUR Moz report - "New Rankings & Insights | Hill Web Creations"
And that is precisely MY question.

Hi Jeannie,
Can you clarify what you mean by this: "np - /google-structured-data-update/" moved down significantly.
"np" followed by a URI string is a Google Analytics hack to show URLs in place of keyword referrer data in organic search. I don't quite know what 'moved down' means in that regard. Are you referring to the sessions associated with that "keyword" in Google Analytics reporting?

Server blocking crawl bot due to DOS protection and MOZ Help team not responding
First of all has anyone else not received a response from the help team, ive sent 4 emails the oldest one is a month old, and one of our most used features on moz on demand crawl to find broken links doesnt work and its really frustrating to not get a response, when we're paying so much a month for a feature that doesnt work. Ok rant over now onto the actual issue, on our crawls we're just getting 429 errors because our server has a DOS protection and is blocking MOZ's robot, im sure it will be as easy as whitelisting the robots IP, but i cant get a response from MOZ with the IP. Cheers, Fergus

Localized pages with hreflang markup being reported by Moz as duplicate content
We have 5 websites, each targeted at a different geography. They are all in English, but targeted per country (e.g. US, Canada, UK, Australia). And we've properly implemented hreflang tags on each page, with the US site being the x-default, and with each country-specific page having a self-referencing hreflang tag as well as individual hreflang tags pointing to the other country-specific versions. All seems to be working properly with the search engines. But, each week in our Moz Pro campaigns, Moz reports the pages as "duplicate content". It seems that Moz does not regard the hreflang tags when deciding if content is duplicate or not. I'm not 100% sure that's what's causing Moz to report them as duplicate, but it's my best guess. To date, I've been marking these as "ignore". But, that creates two problems. First, we have new pages all the time, and so this gets to be laborious. Second, it makes it somewhat likely we might miss a real duplicate content issue. Can someone confirm whether Moz should be looking at hreflang tags before considering pages as dupliacte? And possibly offer any suggestions to us if Moz doesn't do that?

Including "Volume" on the Tracked Keywords Overview Page in Moz Pro
I've searched Q&A but I did not see where this question has been asked before, so hopefully I'm not repeating a question that has already been asked (and answered). For the past couple of years I have been using Conductor Searchlight as our SEO toolset, however recently I have made the decision to switch to Moz Pro. My question is regarding the Tracked Keywords Overview Page. In the current display, the Overview Page shows Keyword, Location, Universal Results, Rank, URL and Optimize. Has there every been any consideration to also include Volume? One of the nice features of CS Keyword Overview page was that I was able to view the rank of all my keywords, and the volume of each, at the same time. We currently track 275 keywords. Some keywords are obviously more important than others. The CS Overview Page allowed me to quickly scan through the list of keywords, see the ones that were within striking distance of page one (by rank), and since I could also see the volume at the same time, it also allowed me to prioritize which keyword to focus on. If two keywords were both ranked "11", but one had triple of volume of the other, it makes sense to focus on the one with the greater volume. From Moz's Tracked Keywords Overview Page I can drill down and get the "Volume" information that I'm looking for (and lots of other really good information), but I have to do it for each individual keyword. Moz Pro is a great SEO tool and the information available is amazing. The switch from CS has been an easy one, but CS did have some features that I liked, and being able to see both rank and volume on the Overview Page was one them. Any information, suggestions, or work-arounds regarding my question is appreciated. Regards Scott

Suggestion to Improve Moz's Link Data
Hello All. The recent Index update (29th January) seems to have produced quite a few shocks to Moz Pro users. Index updates always cause panic and joy every time they are released. However, I feel this is a big improvement that could be made. In this last index, the DA for my site has remained the same. I was expecting a rise, simply because I have been doing some link building since October and was expecting the results to start showing around this time. However, the link metrics for my site looked worse this month than ever before. The index clearly didn't crawl sites and pages that it has crawled the last couple of indexes, and I noticed a few links disappeared from the metrics altogether, links that I know still exist. So I have a suggestion... If Moz has collected link data in previous indexes, can it not preserve that data rather than starting afresh with every new index. Regular checks could be conducted on existing link data to identify expired or broken links, but to disregard them and start anew with every index seems a little odd. That way, Moz would have much more accurate and comprehensive link data which would help to avoid the DA inaccuracy, and provide users with a better measure of how their site is performing against the rest of the web. This may be naive because I do not know the technical side to index updates. Any thoughts, advice, suggestions etc would be appreciated.

Hi Moz community! Why are the number of high priority issues (404s) significantly different between MoZ and Google search console?
Hi Moz community! So when i ran a site crawl to analyze page issues for a site that has been in our account for some time now, it only showed 10 high priority (404) issues...yet when i logged into wordpress and installed yoast premium and connected to google search console, around 900 404s showed up....(we have not blocked off any pages to be crawled) does anyone know a reason why this happens?
