Hi there, welcome to Moz! We are glad you are here! Rest assured, getting up to speed on everything Moz has to offer can be overwhelming. Totally normal, so please don't feel bad. To answer your question, yes, we have a step-by-step guide to getting started with Moz Analytics. Moz also hosts webinars for new subscribers every Friday. I highly recommended signing up for a Welcome Webinar. And if you have more questions, please reach out again.

Hi Gloria,
Thanks for reaching out, and sorry for the confusion! By using the 'Add & Manage Page Grades' option, you should be able to add any URL of your choosing along with a specified keyword :). I hope this helps get your page grades back on track! Feel free to let me know if you have any other questions or concerns about this! Have a great day, and happy marketing!
Cheers,
Jordan

Isn't this more to do with the fact that the pages that Moz chooses to grade aren't necessarily the ones that you're optimising, but the ones that you're ranking for in the search results? If your home page is the only page with any authority, you can find it ranking for lots of your main keyword terms.
If the wrong page is ranking you might want to take a look at your site architecture/internal links and the language being used on the page - but be careful, the page ranking might not be a perfect match for the keyword - but it's a whole lot better than having no pages ranking at all!

The grader is just a baseline report generated to give people starting out an idea of why or where their site could use improvement. If you are having issues with a site or URL, I would post it and see what people on here can help with.

LOL. Thanks Don. I'm new to moz and haven't felt this stupid in I don't know how long. Do you know if there's something like a step by step getting started, setting up a campaign - that sort of thing - section? tks!

I learned to ignore the auto grade reports a long time ago. I'm sure somewhere somebody has explained what sort of algorithm they use to generate them, but I haven't seen it. Granted, I have really looked either. I'm happy just running my own reports when I see fit.
Good luck,
Don

How to have MOZ site crawl pre-launch
Hi, Our new website is about to launch. We would love to have moz.com SITE CRAWL our site before launch. For issues like "missing meta description" and everything else that moz.com checks. We would love to do it before we launch. The new site is currently on a different domain than our live site. example.com <-- this is our live site. new-site.com <-- this is our "staging" server with the new site. We have a long running campaign for example.com Do we need to create a new campain for new-site.com ? Or is there some other simpler way? When we launch we will switch the site from new-site.com to example.com .. example.com will be the address for the new site.. Any ideas or suggestions? best practices? edit Forgot to say thank you for your help and input 🙂

Why Moz New Users Are Left Alone?
New users when sign up to an application like Moz need concrete support to make them familiarized the basics at least, but Moz seems to be not realizing this hardship of the new users or intentionally ignoring it. There is no chat service or phone numbers to quickly contact the designated agent for some quick help. Mail responses that are received after much time have their limitations -- not much interactive. What the new users should do, because the Moz is not that simple for new users. [edited question for formatting]

Can I use wildcards "*" when setting up a new Moz campaign?
Basically I would like the Moz crawler to focus on a specific section of our domain. We do not bucket things via folder groups, so the use of wildcards would be applicable to us. Our URL structure: www.domain.com/some-stuff-here/p12345 Is the example below a valid input to track the above URL structure? www.domain.com//p Thanks.
