New video section within keyword research
-
I notice there is a new section to the top left of the search page referring to videos. What's this? Is it to research our own video performance? If so, how do I use it?

Hi!
It looks like you’re referring to the ‘Universal Results’ panel which shows up on the right hand side of the Keyword Rankings tab here.
As you may be aware, this panel shows you if your site is ranking for that keyword in the universal results.
Universal results are displayed in SERPs in the form of a pack of images, local results or video results, which is determined by the search engine, in this case Google.
So when I search for 'Rank Fishkin' I see this pack of images in the results, here.
Ok, back to Moz Analytics, and how you can explore your universal results further
In my campaign, screengrabbed here, you’ll see that for the keywords I’m tracking in this report 6 have image results and 1 of those results is for my site! There are no local and no video results in this particular report.
You can dig deeper into your universal results by scrolling down to your report and hovering over the camera (for images), places marker (for local), or film camera (for videos).
This will show you more information about the results and how your site is performing, this is what is looks like when you hover over the icon.
There’s some additional help on the keyword ranking guide (click on ‘More Help’ on the top right) here:

I know that you’ve asked specifically about how you can work on your video performance so I’ve also dug up some additional reading.
This article gives you 6 tips for optimizing videos with universal results in mind:

And here’s another article that goes through Google Universal Results:

I hope this helps to clarify!

Accuracy of Moz Keyword Tool
I understand that no search tool is entirely accurate, but I'm seriously beginning to doubt the accuracy of the Moz keyword tool search volumes for keywords. For example: I entered "largest police departments" and it says 0-10 per month in the US, despite the fact that that term is directly responsible for 200 hits per day. Many alterations of that keyword come up with 0-10 or not determined. This is not a small error -- and it repeats over and over for other search terms that I have already ranked for in the US. It's gigantically inaccurate in a massive scale.

How do you use Moz to research related topics?
Like most of the folks here I'm a pretty big fan of the content that comes out through Whiteboard Fridays, and I try to apply the things I learn, but one of the WBF videos that I'm following along with does not do a stellar job of detailing execution using Moz KW Explorer. https://moz.com/blog/related-topics-in-seo-whiteboard-friday Now granted, this came out in 2016, but I still feel the core principle and strategy results in a higher quality piece of content and is still relevant to discovering and understanding searcher task completion requirements, and drafting content that fulfills those requirements. Towards the end Rand sort of mentions that you'll be able to do this with KW explorer, but I'm not really seeing the functionality. The steps I followed were to enter in the keyword in kw explorer, went to keyword suggestions, and selected "based on closely related topics" and ran it, but received no suggestions - came up blank. I then selected "based on broadly related topics" and the same thing happened. I tried this out with the keyword r22, keeping it very broad to start but that didn't seem to work. So what do you all do to perform this sort of research within Moz? Or do you even feel it's relevant in today's Rank Brain driven world?

Keyword explorer and Scandinavia
Hi, congrats on launching keyword explorer! Is the data primarily focused on the US and other larger markets, I see that for the keywords I put in I'm not getting any volume data? When can we expect this to change? Best regards, Anders

Google or Bing? "

Is a higher or lower score better in keyword ranking
I know this is a weird question, I think I have confused myself with different keyword tools. So if you get a score of 10 for your keyword, should you aim to be closer to 1 or 50?

Moz Crawl Report showing non-existent Duplicate Errors since new reporting layout
Hi Moz Community, Since Moz changed to the new style of Crawl report, we've seen a jump in duplicate errors for our site. These duplicate errors do not exist and were not present on the Crawl reports before the report change and also we have not made any changes to the flagged pages on our site since then either. When you download the report data in csv it appears that the Moz report is mixing up data for two or more pages on the site. e.g.in csv for 'Page1' data, it will show the meta description for 'Page2' and 'Page2' shows that for 'Page1', so this then gets flagged as duplicate, however looking at the actual Meta description assigned onsite, both Page 1 and Page 2 are completely unique. Has anyone else experienced this and Moz Team - are you looking into this? Thanks, V
