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?
-
@ajrunthakurseo it was Moz/Google API related and from what this thread mentions it sounds like a fix has been deployed.

Anyone else have this issue and find a fix?I understand the issue you're facing with the three client accounts not showing up in the selectable accounts/properties list in Moz when trying to add them to the traffic settings area. This could be caused by a few different factors, and I'll provide some troubleshooting steps to help you resolve the problem:
Check Permissions: Ensure that you have the correct permissions in Google Analytics for the accounts you're trying to access via Moz. Make sure you have at least "Read & Analyze" access to the accounts in question.
Verify Data Sharing Settings: Confirm that data sharing settings are properly configured in Google Analytics for the accounts that are missing in Moz. In the Google Analytics admin settings, check the "Data Sharing Settings" under the "Account Settings" section, and ensure that sharing with third-party applications like Moz is allowed.
Refresh and Reauthorize: Sometimes, connections between Moz and Google Analytics might encounter hiccups. Try disconnecting and reconnecting the Google Analytics account in Moz. This action can refresh the connection and reauthorize the access.
Check Account Limit in Moz: Moz might have limitations on the number of Google Analytics accounts you can connect. Ensure that you haven't reached the limit and, if necessary, remove any unnecessary or outdated connections to free up space for the missing accounts.
Review GA4 Property Settings: Double-check that the missing GA4 properties have been properly set up and activated in Google Analytics. Also, ensure they are visible in the GA4 interface itself.
I hope these steps help you in resolving the issue. If you need any further assistance, feel free to ask!

@Kateparish This was not the case since it was Moz/Google API related.

I have 3 GA4 accounts that are not showing up in Moz. I have checked permissions and refreshed browser, but they are still not showing up. Moz support said they are aware of the issue and working on a fix. In the meantime, I can invite my personal business email in as an admin on the remaining Analytics accounts and connect to GA4 via Moz through my personal Google account to scrape the remaining accounts.
Yep this is the fix for right now.

Even if you are an administrator in GA4, it sounds like you might be having a permissions problem. At the account, property, and data stream levels, make sure that all rights, including "Edit," are enabled. If the problem continues, a bug might be the cause. The best course of action in this situation might be to contact Moz support. They might have to upgrade their systems to work with GA4 more effectively. Just keep in mind that as GA4 is still very new, certain integrations may still need some work.

Our engineering team have deployed a fix for this issue. If you are still encountering problems, would you be able to write into help@moz.com so that we can take a closer look please.
Looking forward to hearing from you,

So this was something I figured out, but then had support verify. Apparently there's a fix coming, but for anyone that has more than 20 GA4 accounts in their Google Analytics account, Google will only scrape 20 accounts, leaving many off (especially if you're an agency like us).
I ended up inviting my personal business email in as an admin on the remaining Analytics accounts and connecting to GA4 via Moz through my personal Google account to scrape the remaining accounts.
Not an ideal solution, but hopefully this helps others until there's a fix.

@luminusagency It sounds like you might be facing a permissions issue, even if you are an admin in GA4. Ensure all permissions, including "Edit," are enabled across all levels - account, property, and data streams. If the issue persists, you might be encountering a bug. In this case, reaching out to Moz support might be the next best step. They might need to update their systems to better interface with GA4. Remember, GA4 is relatively new, and integrations might still need ironing out the kinks.

How to set up a competitor URL with a language slug for a campaign
Hello, I am trying to set up a competitor with language slug for my (subfolder) website with a language slug. Let's say my website is something like: websiteholding.com/de/website
Competitive Research | | Siir
My competitor is: competitor.com/de When I go to Campaign Settings > Comptetitor Sites > type in competitor.com/de > Hit Save Competitor > Then it shows the saved competitor without the language slug as competitor.com I am not sure if this is a correct method of tracking since for my DE website I would like to track the DE page of the competitor, not their global page. Please correct me if I am wrong and help me out on possible solutions? I am quite new to SEO & Moz , so any help on the topic would be appreciated.0 -
GA4 showing 2 versions of my homepage
When my website Custom Made Casino switched from universal analytics to GA, i have noticed that now in the behavior section it is showing 2 versions of my homepage which I feel may be impacting seo. It is showing the main url which we use for everything, https://custommadecasino.com/ , and it is showing https://custommadecasino.com/index.php?route-common/home. This was never the case with universal. Does anyone know if this is a problem and if so, how do i fix it so that our proper homepage is what is indexed?

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.

Help Blocking Crawlers. Huge Spike in "Direct Visits" with 96% Bounce Rate & Low Pages/Visit.
Hello, I'm hoping one of you search geniuses can help me. We have a successful client who started seeing a HUGE spike in direct visits as reported by Google Analytics. This traffic now represents approximately 70% of all website traffic. These "direct visits" have a bounce rate of 96%+ and only 1-2 pages/visit. This is skewing our analytics in a big way and rendering them pretty much useless. I suspect this is some sort of crawler activity but we have no access to the server log files to verify this or identify the culprit. The client's site is on a GoDaddy Managed WordPress hosting account. The way I see it, there are a couple of possibilities.

1.) Our client's competitors are scraping the site on a regular basis to stay on top of site modifications, keyword emphasis, etc. It seems like whenever we make meaningful changes to the site, one of their competitors does a knock-off a few days later. Hmmm. 2.) Our client's competitors have this crawler hitting the site thousands of times a day to raise bounce rates and decrease the average time on site, which could like have an negative impact on SEO. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe Google is going to reward sites with 90% bounce rates, 1-2 pages/visit and an 18 second average time on site. The bottom line is that we need to identify these bogus "direct visits" and find a way to block them. I've seen several WordPress plugins that claim to help with this but I certainly don't want to block valid crawlers, especially Google, from accessing the site. If someone out there could please weigh in on this and help us resolve the issue, I'd really appreciate it. Heck, I'll even name my third-born after you. Thanks for your help. Eric0 -
Adwords start Organic traffic SIGNIFICANTLY drops
I hope someone can give me some insight here, or at least point me in the right direction. As of September 1 we are running Adwords. We are seeing an alarming drop in our organic traffic since then. It's almost like Adwords is cannibalizing organic. August/September Paid 116/847 Organic 648/178 We've looked at why the Organic could have dropped (penalties, site function issues, etc.) and have found nothing unusual. Can someone give me a reason why this might be happening, Why such a dramatic decrease just as adwords is started. Thanks!

Has Anyone Else Noticed A Jump In Google Analytics Traffic Since Session Parameters Were Changed?
Ever since Google Analytics changed their session parameters August 12th I have seen a 20% jump in organic traffic & bounce rates along with a decline in pages/visit and conversion rate. To be clear, I don't put a whole heck of a lot of stock in these metrics as stand-alone indications of how my site is performing. I'm just trying to get to the bottom of this blip. I noticed some other people mentioned a similar phenomenon in other SEO forums and blog comments, but nobody seems to be talking about this here at SEOMoz (unless I just haven't looked in the right place). I'm not saying the change I noticed has anything to do with the session update, I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar so that I can either cross it off the list of possible causes or explore further.
