Reasons for a sharp decline in pages crawled
Google is indexing just over 80 URLs, although about 40% of them are developer test URLs (they lead to live pages of the site though). Nothing in robots.txt. No errors. The Google bot is still crawling, but it's crawling half the pages. What would make it decrease in page crawls? I'm working if there is a broken link or something on the home page that's pointing away from the site... although it's unlikely, I'll check....

Best Way to Seemlessly Use Moz and Google Analytics
Hi Veronica! Here's a few things you can do with your Moz Subscription that might be worth checking out: Moz Analytics provides crawl data -- We crawl your site and look for issues with how the site is set up that may impact a search engine's ability to crawl your site's content. You can use this to make sure that all the pages on your site can be found and ranked on search engines. On-page data -- If you go into GA and look at the keywords already sending your site traffic, you can track all of those in Moz Analytics. The next week, we'll automatically grade each top ranking page for the keywords you added (A means the page's content is really well optimized for the keyword, F means not so much). If you click into a grade report, we provide recommendations on how to better optimize for that keyword. Link Data - As you mentioned, we provide information about the highest quality links you're receiving (one of the biggest factors behind where you rank in a search engine), links your competitors are getting, and places where a site mentions your brand name, but doesn't link to you (link opportunities). Brand & Mentions - You can use this section of Moz Analytics to track where certain terms are being mentioned throughout the web. This is useful because you can track your own brand so you can get involved in those conversations. You can see who is talking about your competitors / industry and find content outreach opportunities or other places to get involved in the conversation. It may also give you ideas for new content to write. Research Tools - By having a paid Moz Subscription, you can also use all of our research tools. Open Site Explorer is great for link research. Rank Tracker and Keyword Difficulty are good supplements to keyword research. Followerwonk provides some really interesting tools for growing your social network size and influence. The Moz Toolbar makes it really easy to do research on the fly while you browse the web. Let me know which of these areas sounds like it might be of most interest to you and if you have any other questions I'd be happy to answer them! Thanks, Miranda Rensch - Product Manager

Is there a difference between Moz Pro and Moz Analytics?
Hey Veronica, Thanks for the question. I took a look at your campaign and think I see where the confusion about the date comes from. When you look at your Moz Analytics dashboard, it's a weekly display. In your case the week of Oct 21-27. You will see this update with new metrics for the week of Oct 28-Nov 3 today. I hope that clears that up. Cheers, Joel.
