Moz Tool Bar Annoyance - How do I make the green keyword difficulty box go away?
-
A highly annoying light green keyword difficulty box just started showing up to the right of the search box. How do I make this go away?

Glad the reinstall got it working for you.
There's always the API route too for more custom needs. I'm a long time user as well but can get why they alter tools to display more of their toolset. It's likely a tested value-add for many and newer subscribers. Cheers!

Thanks, Jamie. So uninstalling and re-installing did the trick. Thank you. There is now a whole "new" look. My Mozbar used to provide data on black backgrounds. This is now light grey - and the three modes you describe now work. I have to tell you, I really long for the "old Moz days" when the tools were straightforward and simple. They accomplished very specific tasks. So you used a series of them independently, but they were elegant in their simplicity. Nowadays, Moz tools are so over-designed to try to "do" everything for you all at once. Why we need 3 different modes for a toolbar is beyond me. Sigh. If I could have the old Linkscape interface back, I would take it in a minute. I would also take back the old Rank Tracker. I would change OSE back so you can see the full URLs of your backlinks on screen without having to download all the time. Longing for the good ole days. #rantover

Hi Jen,
Do you have the bar in "DA mode?"
Click it once to put the bar into DA mode which is "half off" or click it again to disable it.
If you don't get those different modes when clicking the "M" button I would uninstall and reinstall the chrome ext.

Hmm. Could be a bug because for me it stays off while using Chrome as a browser. Can you share your browser and OS specs? Staff should be able to better trouble shoot after that. Cheers!

Thank you, Ryan. But, that does not make it go away permanently. Every time I enter a query, it reappears. I'm a Pro member since the days of Linkscape and I am usually signed in. This is so highly annoying, especially since I have to screen grab a lot. I have been using the Moz Tool Bar since inception and this just started happening. Was there a new release? At this point, I am going to uninstall the extension and use OSE directly. If someone knows how to disable this permanently, please advise.

Hi Jen. If you click the Moz "M" to turn off the tool bar it will go away. Click it on if you want it and other features to display again. Cheers!

Unsolved Mistake on keyword stuffing detection(in my view)
Hello!
Moz Bar | | Seoman45
In Mozbar, optimization factors
"Avoid Keyword Stuffing in Document"
If a blog (or any other page) publishes an article, and that article attracts a considerable number of questions, it is inevitable to prevent repeating the keyword on that page. In other words, using keywords by users in comments should not be considered as "Keyword Stuffing". In my view, if this is true, you need to optimize the detection of "Keyword Stuffing".
By the way, thanks for the valuable service and tools for SEO.
Best regards,

Moz is reporting weird email address URLs as 'Meta refresh' errors? Anything to worry about?
Under site crawl, Moz is reporting weird email address URLs as 'Meta refresh' errors. The URLs are: http://[email protected] and http://[email protected] Once clicked, they redirect to our homepage. Anyone else ever had this? Is it anything to worry about? I don't think it is, but would be good to get some reassurance.

Do exact keyword matches exclude "in", "based" etc?
I am trying to build a landing page for the search term "web design london" and I have included this search term as well as some variations such as "web design in london", "web design based in london" as the content doesn't really read well if I don't put in a connector word (I can't remember what the term for the use of "in" etc is). However I am using the Moz On-Page Grader to make sure I'm dotting every i and crossing every t, but it doesn't seem to pick up on the search term when "in" or "based" is used. Now is this a limitation of the On-Page Grader or should I expect Google and other search engines to not pick up on the search term when it contains these sorts of words?

Is there a way to see keyword density by percentage?
My management wants us to track the percentage of keyword density. While I don't feel this is as important as it once was, they want it nevertheless. I don't see a way to get that information. I thought it would be in the On-Page Grade, but if it is there I'm missing any. Is this possible in Moz Pro? Thanks,

Duplicate Page Title query in the PRO Campaign tool
Can someone help me on this. I am seeing duplicate page titles on the PRO Campaign Crawl tool on an ecommerce site for example MOZ is saying that these two pages have a duplicate page title: http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/colour-25mm-snap-frames/25mm-green-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/snap-picture-poster-frames/colour-25mm-snap-frames/green-25mm-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html They are the the same product in two categories. When I view the source of both pages the this link is the same in the meta: <link rel="<a class="attribute-value">canonical</a>" href="[http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/colour-25mm-snap-frames/25mm-green-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html](view-source:http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/colour-25mm-snap-frames/25mm-green-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html)" /> So is there something else I need to have done to erradicate this or is it not an issue? Thanks in advance Tracy
