Potential traffic
-
Hi!
I am curious what is the Moz equivalent of "potential traffic" metric in Ahrefs? Is there any keyword metric I can check in Moz to receive data on potential traffic rather than only volume?
Thanks in advance!

Potential traffic refers to the maximum number of visitors or users that a website, app, or physical location could attract under optimal conditions. It is a metric used in marketing and business planning to estimate audience reach, evaluate market demand, and estimate potential revenue streams. Understanding potential traffic helps businesses develop strategies to effectively attract visitors and convert them into customers.

"My website is reported as being blocked from indexing by Google Search Console, but I don't know why. I haven't intentionally blocked indexing in the settings of WordPress, nor have I interfered with the default robot.txt file. My website is https://tuvanlamdep.org. Can anyone help me investigate?"
As a i said earlier to install a SSL, so that users & google can trust your website. A SSL (Secure Socket Layer) plays a vital role in sending organic traffic by google. As Users & google trust a a website such as https://www.spotifycorner.com/ . On this website SSL has been installed, & it is helping in organic ranking from google.

In Moz, the closest equivalent to Ahrefs' "potential traffic" metric is the "Organic CTR" data point in the Keyword Explorer tool.
The Organic CTR shows the estimated click-through rate for a keyword based on its current ranking position. This provides an indication of the potential traffic a keyword could drive if your page ranks well for it.
While Moz doesn't have an exact "potential traffic" metric like Ahrefs, the Organic CTR can give you a sense of the traffic opportunity for a keyword. The higher the Organic CTR, the more potential traffic you could get from ranking for that keyword.
So in summary, Moz's Organic CTR is the closest approximation to Ahrefs' "potential traffic" metric when evaluating keyword opportunities. It provides an estimate of the click-through rate and traffic potential based on ranking position.

Hi
It seems like SSL has been disabled/not installed on your website. Install SSL first, so that your website can become secure for google & potential visitors.

@Siir In Moz, the equivalent of Ahrefs' "potential traffic" metric would be the "Estimated Clicks" metric. This provides an estimation of the total clicks you might receive if you rank organically for a particular keyword. So, to assess potential traffic in Moz, focus on the "Estimated Clicks" metric rather than just volume.

Hi @Siir,
In Moz, you'll find a metric called "Keyword Explorer," which we may say that is similar to the concept of "potential traffic" in Ahrefs.
Keyword Explorer helps you understand how hard it might be to rank for a specific keyword as it considers factors like search volume, competition, and the strength of top-ranking pages.
Also the Monthly Volume which is under Keyword Explorer, will help to estimate a potential traffic for a given keyword.
Hope that helps

Unsolved Is there a way to find out with which keywords are we ranking currently without entering them as part of the campaign?
I was able to do this on Ubersuggest and there I had an idea, which was helpful because part of our first attempts on SEO, on a relatively new company. Is there a way to do this here?

**When will MOZ support GA4?**
Google has announced that it will not report new "Universal Analytics" data as of July 1, 2023. That would mean, at that time, MOZ "traffic" results will apparently become irrelevant?

Unsolved Moz Pro crawl signaling missing canonical which are not?
Hi,
Moz Pro | | rolandvintners
I'm trying MozPro considering using it.
One of the tool which is appealing is the crawl and insights.
After quick use, I really question many of the alerts, for instance, I got a "missing canonical tag" on this url: https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto#2020 but when I check my markup, there's clearly a canonical tag: <link rel="canonical" href="https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto"> Anybody can explain?
I asked Moz Pro staff when being onboarded but didn't get an answer...
Honestly, I'm questioning the value of these crawls, or may be I miss something?0 -

Target Search Terms Changed - does this affect traffic?
We spent the last 12 months targeting a particular search term (mortgage broker) and have been ranking well for it consistently for about 6 months now. We have decided to change the target search term to something else (insurance broker) but noticed that our traffic has started to decline since we started doing this. We are still ranking well for the initial search term, and our ranking is slowly improving for the new targeted search term in SERPs but traffic is down about 60% from January. Is it normal/expected for this to happen?

How can we improve our traffic?
Hi everyone, thanks for taking a look at this. We are looking at improving our traffic for our website. We are a tour company based in Thailand that caters to 18-25 year olds, mainly in the UK and USA. Our site is - http://www.starfishvolunteers.com/ A few years ago the now ex-team hired an SEO company who outsourced to a team in India. Things were considered to be going very well in terms of traffic but I suspect that a lot of it was shady link building tactics. The site was designed poorly, urls were a mess and there was a lot of misinformation on there. Fast forward a few years and there is a new team in place, we redesigned the site, added a blog & booking system, cleared out the misinformation and got ourselves a Moz Pro subscription. I only have Google search stats starting from 2013 and the total traffic (sessions) for that year was roughly 25,000. In 2014 traffic dropped to 19,000 and for the first five month of this year we are currently at 9,000. Obviously reduced traffic doesn't look good and we would very much like to get our numbers back up. We are tracking keywords in Moz and although we are ranking in the top 10 for a bunch of them the traffic just isn't going back up. Here are our thoughts on why we might be losing traffic - We're targeting the wrong keywords. We are being penalised. The competition overtook us. Right now we are at a bit of a loss because we don't know what direction to head in. Could it be our keywords? We would love to know what you think and sincerely appreciate the feedback. We will try and share any data that you think might be relevant or useful.

How do I find traffic for local keywords?
We're having trouble finding reliable traffic numbers for long-tail local keywords (ex. - "computer repair green bay"). We tried using Google Insights but it doesn't display long-tail keyword information, only broad keyword keywords searched for in a certain locale. We also tried using Wordtracker, but that hasn't been too reliable either. Is there a single tool that provides real traffic for local long-tail keywords?

Strong Keywords with Zero Returns in Google's Traffic Estimator
Hi: I have a dilemma and have not been able to find a good answer anywhere - and I have looked. 🙂 Gather up a bunch of keywords from Google's Keyword Tool that have tens of thousands of queries per month for local and global. When I plug the same keywords into Google's Traffic Estimator, even with a high bid (over $2) and a high daily budget ($50-100), I get all zeros returned from Traffic Estimator for columns Estimated Average CPC; Estimator Ad Position; Estimated Daily Budget, etc. Can someone please explain why this is the case? Is it because the keywords themselves, despite in some cases having hundreds of thousands of monthly searches, are low competition and therefore have no real value in Adwords? Thanks for your input and views, Phil
