Potential traffic
-
Hi!
I am curious what is the Moz equivalent of "potential traffic" metric in Ahrefs? Is there any keyword metric I can check in Moz to receive data on potential traffic rather than only volume?
Thanks in advance!

Potential traffic refers to the maximum number of visitors or users that a website, app, or physical location could attract under optimal conditions. It is a metric used in marketing and business planning to estimate audience reach, evaluate market demand, and estimate potential revenue streams. Understanding potential traffic helps businesses develop strategies to effectively attract visitors and convert them into customers.

"My website is reported as being blocked from indexing by Google Search Console, but I don't know why. I haven't intentionally blocked indexing in the settings of WordPress, nor have I interfered with the default robot.txt file. My website is https://tuvanlamdep.org. Can anyone help me investigate?"
As a i said earlier to install a SSL, so that users & google can trust your website. A SSL (Secure Socket Layer) plays a vital role in sending organic traffic by google. As Users & google trust a a website such as https://www.spotifycorner.com/ . On this website SSL has been installed, & it is helping in organic ranking from google.

In Moz, the closest equivalent to Ahrefs' "potential traffic" metric is the "Organic CTR" data point in the Keyword Explorer tool.
The Organic CTR shows the estimated click-through rate for a keyword based on its current ranking position. This provides an indication of the potential traffic a keyword could drive if your page ranks well for it.
While Moz doesn't have an exact "potential traffic" metric like Ahrefs, the Organic CTR can give you a sense of the traffic opportunity for a keyword. The higher the Organic CTR, the more potential traffic you could get from ranking for that keyword.
So in summary, Moz's Organic CTR is the closest approximation to Ahrefs' "potential traffic" metric when evaluating keyword opportunities. It provides an estimate of the click-through rate and traffic potential based on ranking position.

Hi
It seems like SSL has been disabled/not installed on your website. Install SSL first, so that your website can become secure for google & potential visitors.

@Siir In Moz, the equivalent of Ahrefs' "potential traffic" metric would be the "Estimated Clicks" metric. This provides an estimation of the total clicks you might receive if you rank organically for a particular keyword. So, to assess potential traffic in Moz, focus on the "Estimated Clicks" metric rather than just volume.

Hi @Siir,
In Moz, you'll find a metric called "Keyword Explorer," which we may say that is similar to the concept of "potential traffic" in Ahrefs.
Keyword Explorer helps you understand how hard it might be to rank for a specific keyword as it considers factors like search volume, competition, and the strength of top-ranking pages.
Also the Monthly Volume which is under Keyword Explorer, will help to estimate a potential traffic for a given keyword.
Hope that helps

Unsolved Is there a way to find out with which keywords are we ranking currently without entering them as part of the campaign?
I was able to do this on Ubersuggest and there I had an idea, which was helpful because part of our first attempts on SEO, on a relatively new company. Is there a way to do this here?

Unsolved Anyone out there know MOZ well enough to provide a consultation on our results?
Hi Fans of MOZ, is there anyone out there that knows MOZ like an uber user and understands the details on crawl reports and what they mean? I'm looking for someone to review my MOZ results and give me some practical suggestions to work on with my SEO and web teams. Any takers?

Potential Keyword Cannibalisation
Hi, I am concerned that our website's rankings are currently being affected by KW cannibalisation. We don't rank too badly for our target keywords but they could, of course, be better, especially as the niche is very competitive! One thing that is bothering me is that our internal pages do not rank well for these KWs and instead it is the homepage appearing in the rankings. This is despite the fact that the internal pages are optimised for the different keywords. Basically the HP is also targeting these same keywords and I was wondering if this is affecting our rankings overall? I am not keen to risk changing the homepage in case our rankings suffer massively and we drop out of Google completely. If anyone could offer some advice then that would be great. Is it simply a case of trying to get external links pointing to these internal pages? Would internal linking to them prove effective as well? Cheers Tom

How do I find traffic for local keywords?
We're having trouble finding reliable traffic numbers for long-tail local keywords (ex. - "computer repair green bay"). We tried using Google Insights but it doesn't display long-tail keyword information, only broad keyword keywords searched for in a certain locale. We also tried using Wordtracker, but that hasn't been too reliable either. Is there a single tool that provides real traffic for local long-tail keywords?

Plummeting traffic and rankings for main KWs
Hi there mozzers, You have been so helpful in the past and we'd really appreciate your insights into our problem... we have two data recovery companies in the UK, one has been established for 11 years (dataclinic.co.uk) , the second (datlabs.co.uk) is a subsidiary that's been around for 5 years. Dataclinic has always ranked highly, usually in the top 1-5 on page one for relevant KWs and towards the end of last year we had traffic of approx 1,800 UK visitors/month - now we're down to only 600. Week on week we're falling and I have started to dread the monitoring checks. We're slipping in the rankings too. As our business relies almost 100% on Google rankings our phones just aren't ringing. In contrast our subsidiary company datlabs is climbing up the rankings and drawing more traffic - but unfortunately nothing like enough to compensate for the decline in the main company's traffic. We have used the same kinds of marketing strategies for both but have invested more energy into social for dataclinic, and more energy into local for datlabs. I'd say that our strategies have been less than sparkling clean - we've paid for directory links but not with the really spammy directories. We're at a loss to understand what has happened to have had such a dramatic and devastating effect - please help!! Thanks so much Sue

Strong Keywords with Zero Returns in Google's Traffic Estimator
Hi: I have a dilemma and have not been able to find a good answer anywhere - and I have looked. 🙂 Gather up a bunch of keywords from Google's Keyword Tool that have tens of thousands of queries per month for local and global. When I plug the same keywords into Google's Traffic Estimator, even with a high bid (over $2) and a high daily budget ($50-100), I get all zeros returned from Traffic Estimator for columns Estimated Average CPC; Estimator Ad Position; Estimated Daily Budget, etc. Can someone please explain why this is the case? Is it because the keywords themselves, despite in some cases having hundreds of thousands of monthly searches, are low competition and therefore have no real value in Adwords? Thanks for your input and views, Phil
