New SERP Features Cumbersome. Bring Back the Old Ranking Setup!
-
Does anyone else hate the new SERP Features section?
Well, let me start over. I do not hate that section, I hate that that data was removed from the main rankings page. It was very convenient to be able to see that my site was ranking # for organic and also listed in the Local listings. All in one place. Now, I have to go to 2 different places to get that data. When you are tracking more than 5 keywords, going back and forth will make your head spin. (Yes, I know you can get all the data in a cv file. That's still an additional, unnecessary step when you need a quick ranking update).
Also, when the local/image/video/etc. emblems were shown on the main ranking page, you could hover over the emblem and see who was ranking on the first page for that vertical. Now that data is completely gone. Suggestions for where to find this data? A bright local membership?
Thanks for listening to me rant. Moz, if you are listening, please bring back the old ranking page!

I have to agree. It wasn't broke, why did they 'fix' it?
I really don't want to have to pay for Moz and a BrightLocal membership.

Pulling Month on Month rankings
Hi, I wondered if there's a feature where I can download the historical monthly rankings i.e I can export a CSV file that details rankings in January 2017, February 2017, March etc and onwards? Thanks

Global Keyword Rank Research? What is the best method to do this?
I am looking for a tool that will show my how my competitors rank for keywords across regions. Can MOZ help with this? I know right now I can add their website and export a list of terms they rank for, but it would really help me to see how that number fluctuates and changes across the globe. Any solutions?

One of my Moz Campaigns was accidentally deleted. Any tips on getting it back?
I had a campaign setup with all of my keywords meticulously labeled and branded. Then by mistake, it was deleted. Is there any way I can restore/get the data back for an accidentally deleted campaign?

Is it possible to view keyword rankings over the past 13 months?
The keyword rankings bar graph is a great visual representation to provide clients, but most clients like to see the past 13 months (vs. 12 months) so they can compare the current month to last year. It'd be great if the latest [monthly] keyword rankings showed all the way back to the same month last year (Ex. If I was looking at the keyword rankings for December 2015, all the way back to December 2014 would be graphed out.)

Idea for the new on-page tool in Pro
Hello, I just ran about something, which looks like a minor change (at least to me, but i totaly get, that what looks like a minor change to the outsider might in fact be a big deal from the developers view) but could easily enhance productivity with the new onpage-tool. In the overview of tracked on-page reports, I think it would be a great idea, to show the number of unsolved suggestions next to the score. Additionally, I'd love to flag some unsolved suggestions on a single page as "ignored". Why should I ignore a suggestion? For example I'm working for a customer, who is using a pretty old e-Commerce System. Therefore there is no possibilty to easiely add canonical tags. Also on some pages, it is not feasible to get below the 100 links per page threshold. On Pages, that list all products of a certain brand, I naturally get the "avoid spamming" suggestion regarding the brand-name Some Pages adress Keywords with german Letters like ÄÜÖß, which cannot be found in the page URL (while Google does get that "über" and "ueber" are the same thing). So there are cases where I can't - or simply don't want - to solve the suggestion. Now it happens almost every week to me, that I see keyword ranking, lets say, at 7 with a score of something like 87. The usual instinct is to click the report to look for the last tweaks. Often then I realise, I checked this report few weeks ago and can't or won't do anything regarding the remaining suggestions. If it would have something like "3 unresolved suggestions (+ 2 ignored)" standing next to each score in the reports overview, it would be my personal usability dream come true - since the number of open suggestions is more important to me then the score. To make it even more aweseome, add a simple filter: "Only show Reports with not-ignored unresolved suggestions". Whoohooo, that would make you one happy customer! Maybe that is something, many people would enjoy to see in an update. Cheers, Christian P.S. sorry for my bad englisch - hopefully you got the idea. unbenannt-3.jpg.html

Why no long tail-related features?
I recently joined a community related to Internet Marketing and I am finding it very useful. One of the topics that comes up a great deal is what tools folks use to investigate content gaps. I've been a Moz subscriber for quite some time and understand that, compared to many of its competitors, it's a high end solution. So, feel pretty well positioned there. However, one thing that appears to be lacking is what might be called a long tail discovery tool. I am well aware of Google's Keyword Planner and other free stuff (the problem there being... so are my competitors :)). But there are a number of tools out there - SEMRush, Long Tail Premium, Authority Metrics and so on - that focus very directly on that, with "scores" for keyword competitiveness that at least help narrow down to a possible set, using filtering. While I accept that one might argue the merits - or otherwise - of each of these specific tools, it causes me to wonder why Moz doesn't have such a capability. I see some very successful web site owners describing their processes in the aforementioned community and long tail analysis is a key part of that. It seems that Moz has a richness of features, including around keyword ranking. But it's not clear to me why it doesn't support long tail keyword discovery "directly" (as a specific feature). I really don't want to pay for another subscription 😞 Thoughts? Thanks. Mark
