Hi,
Without knowing the URL you are trying to use or being able to see the process makes answering this question very difficult.
I'd advise you to get in touch with someone from Moz at Help@Moz.com
They will be able to advise you on this issue and hopefully fix it.
Hope this helps
Totally agree with this Linda.
Just wanted to add that Moz did have a blog about Keyword volume tools which talks specifically about the pros and cons of using Google Adwords for exactly this.
Hope this helps

Hi,
In short yes.
No-follow links should always be used on any form of advertising across the web. Especially when they are sitewide.
Google have a page set-up specifically for this question
https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/96569?hl=en
You will want to implement this as soon as possible to prevent any negative impact on your website.
Good luck.
Absolutely!
I advise you do this as soon as possible as this will be seen as a black-hat technique by search-engines.
No matter how high the domain authority of those websites, it will be seen as highly irrelevant and will be recognised as a technique to manipulate search.
I would also look at getting in touch with the webmasters of the websites and trying to get them removed entirely before disavowing them. It takes more time and effort but disavowing can take up to 3 months (sometimes longer) and that is a long time in the world of SEO.
Let me know how you get on.
Hi,
In my opinion, Google definitely does take certain reviews into account when ranking sites. What I mean by that, is reviews that can actually be measured numerically.
These are the two types of reviews that I believe affect rankings:
Both the above can be easily measured by using the number of stars, points etc (which all represent a percentage out of 100%).
By using a very simple algorithm, you could collect this information from across the internet and calculate how well on average a particular website (this can also be done for products, recipes etc.) ranks with the public.
We have also had our fair share of negative reviews (it has to be expected) and have actively sought to increase our positive ones (honestly and naturally) to combat this. For us, it seems to have worked successfully.
What's your opinion on this?
Hi,
I'd advise switching your whole site across.
It's not necessary to do so, but with the way things are going, it's better to be safe than sorry.
Since Google have decided that it is important and will have an impact on rankings, there is no harm doing it on every page. They aren't going to penalise you in any way for doing so.
The change is only affecting 1% of all global search terms at the moment so I wouldn't panic yet. However, if they find this to be a very successful way of ranking, it could rapidly be spread across a much higher percentage.
We are in the process of implementing the change ourselves and are going to do it sitewide.
Hi,
I would highly advise you to set your default choice to United Kingdom (English) en-UK. (When choosing Google as your search engine). This will give you the most accurate view of your search rankings etc for the UK.
Then you can add up to 2 other search engines/locations to compare against. I recommend going into Google analytics (i'm assuming that's what you're using) and finding out your top 3 search engine sources and their locations. Then input these in order of highest traffic received.
Hope this helps.
Did you get in touch with someone from Moz support?
Sounds like exactly what happened to me.
I'd suggest:
You don't need to worry about data going missing. I've done the above several times before and it's always there once reconnected.
If the above doesn't work, I suggest waiting for a few more days and if it's still happening get in touch with a member of the Moz support team.
Sorry I don't have a better answer.
Let me know if this helps.
Hi,
I think it is is just a bug.
I had the exact same thing happen when I first started using Moz Analytics. It occurred for about 1 - 2 weeks and then stopped. If there's no gap in the info I wouldn't be too concerned.
How long has the issue been going on for? Similar time frame or longer?
Thanks

Hi Ash,
The best way to work out where you should point the backlink to is by asking yourself this question:
What is the most related and useful page on my website for the article I have written?
Take it from a readers perspective. Would they prefer to go to your homepage or a more specific internal page?
Once you can answer that question then you know where to link to.
Make sure to not over-optimise the keywords you use for your anchor text.Just put them on the most natural, relevant word in your article.
Hope this helps.
Hey,
Welcome to Moz pro.
If you click on "About your data" which is on the right hand side just above domain authority, it will give you all the info on how often each section is updated. Not all elements update at the same time. Some are daily whereas others are weekly.
I would wait for a few days and if you still haven't received anything then get in touch with a member of the Moz help team.
I'm sure you'll see some updated data in a couple of days.
Another potential reason could be because Moz just updated the user interface for the campaign data (about a week or two ago). They may be having some intermittent problems with data presentation or collection.
Hope this helps.
Hi,
Have you thought of the potential correlation that this could have with the recent Google Pigeon update?
It's only (officially) come out in the last week and directly impacts local search.
I recommend checking out this article on Search Engine Land:
http://searchengineland.com/experts-weigh-googles-pigeonlocal-search-algorithm-update-198499
This should hopefully give you some insight.
Let me know if you discover anything else. Hope the rankings jump back up.
