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

As an example: https://www.abthermal.com/3m-70-70hdt-self-fusing-silicone-rubber-electrical-tape.html Moz has flagged this as URL too long... but guideline is that happens at 75 characters or more? I count 55..?? or does the 75 limit have to include the domain? Thanks, Adrian

SSL - green padlock but Moz say there's an 804 error?
Hi, my site has a green padlock and no SSL errors but Moz are reporting an 804 error. I use CloudFlare with fairly complex settings. I've read this thread but it's quite old and I don't understand which parts of it are still valid. I'd love to know whether this can be sorted before I spend hours setting up Moz's features as if they can't crawl my site then I would obviously need to cancel my subscription. Thanks

Finding out Who has high DA\PA and getting a backlink
Hi, So, like many others I was always in the top 3 for keywords in google for about a year, then 9 months ago we dropped, we now dont even exisit! (Page 10). One of the actions we are looking at is backlinks, however we have limited budget and want to work with domains that have high DA in order to help us, I assume this is good idea for us to do? Question, how can I easily identity domains that have high DA relevant to my sector? so I can engage in backlinks conversation David

Fastest way to set up Moz to produce a list of easy-to-rank for keyword opps
I've used Hubspot's keyword tool previous to MOZ, and I know that they import data generated from MOZ into their tool... but I find it a much more convoluted process using Moz's more robust system. ALL I want is to dump in a long list of keyword possibilities, then see where we can easily rank for these terms, especially against our local competitors. How do I set this up???? It's not as self-explanitory as Hubspot! Thanks!!!
