Unsolved Can Moz integrate GA4 data?
-
With the new GA4 coming out in 2023, can our Moz accounts connect to the new GA4 property?
-
@Tom-Capper The integration is everything because it allows us (agencies) to have all the high-level metrics, at-a-glance on one report. I can definitely get the acquisition info from GA, but to have it on the report that we send to the client, makes the Moz report a one-stop shop experience. That's what sets Moz apart from Ahrefs and SEM Rush, etc. Did this answer the question?
Speaking of which: It would be amazing if we could have "seats" that were limited to specific campaigns and read-only. This would allow agencies to give their clients a login where they can see everything we see, but not change anything. In fact, this would eliminate the need for the reports, which we send them on a monthly basis. This would raise the agency's service value immensely, and therefore...Moz's
As for Search Console, it shows keywords that are no on the Moz Opportunities list because it shows keywords that are locally ranked high, and those that are ranked way down in position, which is helpful, because if a high CTR keyword is ranking in position 89, we can work on that to bring it up.

@bizmarquee Thanks! This is really useful.
Can you elaborate a bit on what you're getting out of the Moz GA integration that you're not getting out of GA itself - is it keyword-centric views?
Similarly, what metrics are you comparing between Moz and Search Console?
-
@Tom-Capper The GA integration is vital on the reports. We like to show our clients how their Organic traffic stacks up against other methods of acquisition. For example, we've had clients using Pay per Click and then hired us to increase their organic presence, and by the GA integration on the reports we are able to hold accountable the organic traffic cannibalizing the PPC traffic.....or not. Either way, it's the first real proof of the effectiveness of the SEO campaign.
I read above that Search Console might be included, and that would be invaluable. Currently, myself and my team use both Moz Keyword Opportunities and Search Console because they have different results. All in one place would be amazing.

Sorry for the slow reply, but apologies - nothing we can share publicly right now.
Still interested in any background you can provide your intended use of the integration, and what matters most to you, that we can keep in mind for our testing, of course.

@Tom-Capper Curious on any updates on this front. I have a client that uses only GA4, and I'd love to take advantage of a Moz integration when it available. Any chance there is a beta group I can participate in?
-
Yes, we're anticipating Universal Analytics will be deprecated. And of course we'll make sure we're ready for that - we'll likely replace with GA4, Google Search Console, or both, but we're trying to understand how users are using these integrations, and what they value from them.
Hence, any comment or colour you can provide is much appreciated, and can be added to our existing research! Is it custom dashboards for organic traffic, for example? Or do you like that you can see other channels on the campaign home screen? Would you prefer if conversions were there too? That sort of thing.
-
@tom-capper I understand Universal is disappearing next year. We need traffic data, what would you provide if Universal goes away and you don't have GA 4?
-
Hi!
This is something we're actively considering - we may make some other improvements or changes to our data integrations at the same time.
Speaking of which - I'd love to know how you make use of the GA integration. Any feedback might help to set our course

GA4 account & property not showing in traffic property setup list.
Hi there, I've connected multiple client accounts to GA4 already, but three of our accounts that we have administrator rights to in GA4 are not showing up in our selectable accounts/properties list when logged in via Moz to add to the traffic settings area. Anyone else have this issue and find a fix?

Custom Events Not Showing in GA4
I have some experience in successfully creating custom events for GA4 via Tag Manager, but I have one account where my events are firing in GTM but not showing at all in GA4 (not real time or anywhere). I have twice done them over and published my changes but still no luck. Any ideas what else the issue can be? There are no internal filters at the moment. Thank you.

Why is Moz tracking search results for UK if I have my campaign settings set for US?
One of our clients is marked in Moz Analytics as ranking 24th, but we don't see that when we search for the same key term. However, when we hover over the Universal Image Results icon, we noticed that the ranking is actually for google.co.uk/search. The campaign settings for this campaign are all set to use google.com or the US version. Does anyone know why Moz is bringing in these UK results? dKJAU2F

Reset my MOZ Account?
I recently redesigned my 2 websites. Both are large 80+ page sites with unique text on every page, no keyword stuffing and generally using all the proper SEO techniques ( I hired a professional w/ 10 years experience). My pages rank for the targeted terms, but MOZ reports say "Not in the Top 50". I had friends run "Clean Searches" from the west coast and we were ranking. Prior to the redesign, I used MOZ and the reports were very accurate. Should I reset my MOZ account or what?

I have 13 Facebook accounts I want to connect. I got 5 of them to connect, and Moz says that I have 10 of 15 accounts left. However, when I try to add another account it says that I have reached the maximum amount of accounts already?
