I want to uninstall the Moz SEO toolbar. How do I do this?
Hi Bonnie, Linda and Justin are absolutely right. You can follow their instructions to uninstall the toolbar permanently. If, however, you'd like to be able to temporarily disable it, you can toggle it on and off using a keyboard shortcut: Cmd + Option + Control + M on OSX, Shift + Ctrl + Alt + M on Windows. You can also toggle it on and off by clicking on it's bookmark icon. For a good overview of what you can do with the Moz Toolbar, as well as how to configure it to meet your needs, check out the video at http://moz.com/help/guides/research-tools/mozbar. Best of luck!

I am doing the On-page SEO for a website that's never had any SEO done before. I will start with the Pages. Is it necessary to do SEO/Keywords for older Posts?
I pretty much agree with the comments here. What this is basically called is a "content audit" - a process by which you go through old existing content, pull together data and assigned actions to each piece of content. Here are some guides on how to preform a content audit; http://www.quicksprout.com/2014/04/24/how-to-conduct-a-content-audit-on-your-site/ http://moz.com/blog/content-audit-tutorial https://www.distilled.net/blog/seo/how-to-perform-a-content-audit/ The end goal is to determine which content you might; Remove Update Noindex Conslidate Repurpose ...etc Then you can assign keywords to the content you have left. But I would do the content audit first then assign keywords, because otherwise you'd be assigning keywords to content you might not even keep

Why does the moz crawl test lists page twice?
One thing to note that I forgot to mention is that SquareSpace does use rel=canonical tags on their pages. So while your reporting may be off, link juice will not be split between / and no-/ pages. This also takes care of duplicate content problems, as the tag defines the source content.

Where did my custom reports go?
Hi Ruben! Thanks for reaching out. I appologize that it's taken us so long to answer this question in Q&A! As far as I can tell, we never received an email notice that it was here. Our engineers are currently looking into why this might be happening (it's been pretty one-off). Are you still running into this? I just looked into your account, and it looks I was able to pull up your old Custom Reports. If this is still an issue, shoot us an email at help@moz.com. We'll take this offline and dig into this from there! Cheers, Erin

Not in Top 50 - But actually in 3rd position
Hi Benny! I am not sure what happened to your email from the 18th but I did see the one submitted yesterday. I'm afraid Erin's earlier response on the 18th identified the issue with your campaigns. We are not finding keywords in the top 50 for your September campaign due to the URL set to only track the root domain because your site is ranking as the "www" version on the SERPs. This is indicated below the campaign settings where it says "tracking only this subdomain" which is set by checking the box to "exclude subdomains" from the setup process. This means if you are ranking as www.domain.com, we are actually looking for domain.com If you setup a root domain URL without checking the box to exclude subdomains, this will act as a catch-all to pull rankings for all versions of the site, www or non-www. This is why the May campaign is showing ranking keywords because we are "tracking all sites at this domain". Hope this helps!

When attempting to crawl my site, I'm getting the error: Oops! That URL doesn’t resolve, which means your report will be blank. Please fix the issue or change the URL. What's going on here?
Hi! It's best to send a note to us at help@moz.com so we can look into it. Thanks!

Is your MOZbar still working?
Mine gets buggy from time to time as well. When all else fails I usually swing on over to OSE and manually run a site to get the stats. But yes, uninstall, reinstall, clear cache. That should work but if not, sometimes I've even had to disable other addons I have enabled to get it to work. But as I stated, just jump over to OSE and manually run it and u should be happily on your way!

Why can't On-Page Grader grade any Hilton hotel URLs?
Thank you for the suggestion. There weren't any spaces before or after to cause the error. I believe the issue was related to a java update. I was able to run OPG from another machine after installing a Java update. I can't update the java on the machine I was using for testing that night as some of the applications and systems I need to access require a specific version of Java. Since that night I have been able to run OPG without issue.

I'm getting a Crawl error 605 Page Banned by robots.txt, X-Robots-Tag HTTP Header, or Meta Robots Tag
I can now resolve the www version of the site but not reach the root domain which will continue to return the 605 error so there is something about the root domain configuration that is blocking our bot. A workaround would be to create a new campaign for www.bigbluem.com instead of bigbluem.com

Dashboard module in Custom report
Hi Chris! Earth here. Actually, it just me, Erin. Unfortunately we don't have a way to parse out the information from the Dashboard module. It's a whole kaboodle. While it won't include DA, you can add modules for Traffic from Search to look at your overall Organic Traffic. http://www.screencast.com/t/5xv5QDmpR http://www.screencast.com/t/yL9xXqoaB The only traffic we measure in Moz Analytics is Organic, so your total visits in the app won't reflect any paid search. I'll leave this questions as "unanswered" just in case anyone from the community wants to chime in! I hope this helps, and have an awesome day! Erin

Keyword used 1448 times ? for a Chinese page
Thanks Pixelbypixel and Erin, I think it's the fundamental of SEO market in Chinese, Japanese, Korea. But, I am not sure it's related to UTF-8 code page ? My page is UTF-8. I guess it's related the 'phase' of the sentence. It's hard to make index by a simple rule. Moz parser engine don't know a phase is composed of 2 or 3 or 4 characters in a sentence. For example: "專案管理" , "專案" means 'Project' , "管理" means 'Management', but "專" "案" "管" "理" each single character will be used in other sentences but with different meanings. It's complex, I think google knew the rule very well. But, at least, you don't need to count each character. Because we will put the keyword by ourselves, we just want to know a phase "專案管理" , we don't care them separately. Chinese and Japanese market is huge, why don't you hire a asian engineer to do such research ? The ROI will be great ! William
