MOZ Tool not reading my xml sitemap.
-
I have submitted an xml sitemap to Search Console back in December, and it's been approved, but the moz tool says there's no xml sitemap. Please help!!!

Hi again Robert,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you about this! I've been away for a few days.
If you submitted the sitemap directly to Google's tools, you should be seeing this in Search Console but not in the Moz tools. Google don't share this information with us (or anyone else) and it's not possible for us to detect that you've submitted this to them.
I took a look at the site using MozBar and am still not seeing an error to say that you're missing an XML sitemap. We don't check for this as one of the page elements so I'm not sure where the error you're seeing would be coming from. If you'd like to send me a screenshot of the error you're seeing, to help@moz.com, I can look into it further for you.

Hi Lisa,
Thanks for responding to my question. The campaign I'm addressing is Mully's Touch of Ireland, and yes, we are seeing an error in the diagnosis section of the chrome extension, that we are missing an xml sitemap.
Thanks,
Robert Tapia

Hi there,
Lisa from the Moz support team, here.
We shouldn't be checking for an XML sitemap within the site crawl, so I wouldn't expect to see this. Are you seeing an error to let you know that it is missing? I took a look in your account but you have a number of campaigns and I was not sure which you were having trouble with.

Moz Keyword Explorer how long does it take to gather metrics
Looking at some low volume keywords, I get lots of "Gathering Metrics". These don't seem to be updating with metrics. How long does this typically take, should I set and come back in a couple of hours, overnight? Should I leave the screen open, or will this stop it working? Justin

Performed a Moz Crawl Test - Says I have 107 External Links on Homepage??
Hello Mozzers! Exactly at the title suggests, I performed a crawl test on one our sites and the report says we have 107 external links on the homepage and another 34 on one of our internal category pages. On both of these pages I can only find 7 external links, anyone know why the crawl test is saying this? And if Moz is finding these external links could google be doing the same and punishing our site for the high number of external links? Any response appreciated! Richard

New Spam Analysis Tool Results Questions
First off, I am incredibly excited about this tool. Secondly, I have a slew of questions, but the ones that are lingering for me are as follows. There are a few URLS that we used to control which are showing up in our list as spammy. The websites no longer exist as of roughly a week ago and I presume they still show up simply because of the last indexing. That being said, if a website doesn't exist anymore, yet the link is showing up in our GWMT or MOZ, is it still necessary to disavow? Is that overkill? http://alcoholdrugrehablosangeles.com/ is an example of a website we used to control and I have removed. My second lingering question is if there are a handful of links that are registering as spammy, and I presume it is due to lack of content/duplicate content, and I move that content to its appropriate place on another website and 301 that domain to its new home, will the "spam score" carry over?

Location specific MOZ Ranking changes - How to track them
Hi All, I have asked this question before here but haven't got any convincing answers. And now I am starting to see this in couple of my other projects . I'm not sure how many facing similar issue like mine but its bit tricky. Our company is based in Melbourne,Australia and we set MOZ campaign setting to google.com.au . The weekly moz ranking for one of the client keyword showed as Position Rank#29. But when I Checked Manually it is Ranking #3. So why does the moz show as 29 ? **Keyword: **car exhaust Website: www.professionalexhaust.com.au To Replicate, I set the google search to google.com.au and on Search Tools I changed location as **Australia ( by default its set to Melbourne ). **When I did search now my result came in Page 3 - No.29 rank. Note: By default the Google browser picks the location as Melbourne and gives localized result which is not tracked by MOZ. Now how do I track this in Moz to show localized ranking results which my customer see. I cant report this ranking to client, else I have to do a manual report which is time consuming . Note : This is Tested in InCognito mode with all cache cleared.

Optimise your Pages in Moz Crawl - where do the keywords come from?
I am just going through my first Crawl stats from the MOZ analytics Under the pages to optimise section I have pages that I have optimised for my best keyword with an A grade that are showing as an F grade and suggesting a different keyword? Where is this keyword coming from? I am assuming that my page has been analysed and a better keyword has been recommended? Can anyone advise? Thanks Roger
