Should I be concerned our FWE Mentions report shows tons of non-relevant results?
-
Our brand name also happens to be a common German word and when I ran FWE for the first time this week, I was surprised to see hundreds of returns for the German word rather than our brand name. Does this affect our SEO in anyway and if so, what can we do to mitigate this? Appreciate any insights! Thanks in advance.

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
I can see how this might be a tricky situation. The best advice I could offer would be to somehow make your search a little more specific - for instance you might run a query like "brand name+region" or "brand name+director" - you'll want to narrow down the search as much as you can in order to get the best and most relevant results.
The results you see in FWE won't be having a negative impact on your SEO efforts unless of course a search for your brand leads people to completely different SERP results than hoped for - though this would be something that would be best investigated by an SEO expert (I'm really here to support the tools specifically).
Please let us know if we can help with anything else and as always, feel free to pop a message over to help@moz.com if you're running into any trouble:).

Trying to duplicate Screaming Frog report
I am trying to use the crawl report to generate the Screaming Frog report shown below. I want to use it to calculate the internal page rank as Paul Shapiro outlined in this article. Google is not seeing my site the way I want them to and I want to work on the site heirarchy and structure. I am not seeing where: Type, Anchor, and Alt are listed in the crawl report - is it called something else? Is there another report I can run for the whole site to generate the data above? Does the Moz PA already calculate the internal PR of pages? Any additional resources or people that could help me with this? Thanks, SAM

Does anyone have a good article or video on how to read the SEO MOZ crawl report column by column?
I am trying to find a good how-to on how to read and analyze each column of the SEO MOZ crawl report, specifically, the excel sheet it allows you to export. What I'm really trying to get to the bottom of is what the "Yes" indiciates under rel-cononical. If it says "yes," does this mean that the link in question has been canonoicalized?

Comparing details of current on-page grade reports with previous reports
Hi Whilst i've set up reporting for on-page grader when it comes through on report it just shows any changes in grade and rank, what i also want to look at is changes in the detail/components of current report compared to previous reports, is this possible historically (over the previous reporting periods) ? There doesn't seem to be any kind of archive that i can find to previously carried out on-page grade report ? Cheers Dan
