Some changes to how we measure Tweet Verticals on SERPs
-
Hello all!
One of the biggest challenges we face here at Moz is keeping up with Google's ever-changing SERP features whilst maintaining minimal impact on customer data. However sometimes this is inevitable for us to be able to stay relevant. We are deploying a change today that will have an effect on rankings for some campaigns.
As of today, we will now track tweets as verticals instead of organic ranking positions. This will affect around 7% of SERPs.
I have attached an image that shows how tweets look when integrated into the SERP. In this example, prior to today, we would have measured https://twitter.com/Moz as the second organic ranking position and https://www.facebook.com/moz/ as the third organic ranking position. After today, we will measure https://twitter.com/Moz as a Tweet SERP feature, and https://www.facebook.com/moz/ as the second organic ranking position. The Tweet SERP feature will appear in our tools soon.
We expect this to have a pretty low impact on a campaign's Search Visibility score (~ 0.1% on average) but we wanted to call this out as it will manifest as a page 1 ranking change for those keywords.
Any feedback or questions please reply below! Or contact the help team!
Thanks,
Jon

Cheers for the heads up. To be fair it does make sense to have it as a seperate element, much like the knowledge graph panel which despite being in prime location is not really part of the serps. Cheers for this and will look forward to the new tweet serp feature coming soon.

Mozbar - SERP Control Panel - Export to CSV - Update
Hi I asked a question on 22nd Sep and 16th October about Mozbar: "I have been exporting SERP results using the Mozbar, but I don't get PA and DA data even though this is shown in the SERP overlay. The data is shown in excel as being 'undefined'. Anyone else having this problem?" I was told that this was a known issue and a fix would be available within weeks. Is there any update on when this update is likely? Thanks again for your assistance. Neil

Moz ranking report shows massive loss in Bing SERP's. But it is not the case?
My weekly ranking report shows massive loss of SERP's on Bing. For most keywords I was no longer in the top 50 which where first top 5. But when I checked it out for myself, I'm still ranked top 5 for these keywords. I then used the Moz Rank Tracker and there it also says I'm still ranking top 5 for these keywords. What should I believe now?

Under the Keyword Difficulty tool among the information provided to you when you complete a search is a local and global search volume. Above those numbers it says "Bing Search Volume (Exact Match)" is there any way to change this from Bing to Google? Or do I not understand what exact information they are giving me here?
