Should I be concerned our FWE Mentions report shows tons of non-relevant results?
-
Our brand name also happens to be a common German word and when I ran FWE for the first time this week, I was surprised to see hundreds of returns for the German word rather than our brand name. Does this affect our SEO in anyway and if so, what can we do to mitigate this? Appreciate any insights! Thanks in advance.

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
I can see how this might be a tricky situation. The best advice I could offer would be to somehow make your search a little more specific - for instance you might run a query like "brand name+region" or "brand name+director" - you'll want to narrow down the search as much as you can in order to get the best and most relevant results.
The results you see in FWE won't be having a negative impact on your SEO efforts unless of course a search for your brand leads people to completely different SERP results than hoped for - though this would be something that would be best investigated by an SEO expert (I'm really here to support the tools specifically).
Please let us know if we can help with anything else and as always, feel free to pop a message over to [email protected] if you're running into any trouble:).

Can Moz Keyword Explorer help target keywords for Google Images results?
I'm wondering if I can use Keyword Explorer (or maybe another tool?) to target keywords for image rankings. I'd like to play around with optimizing images so that they appear in search results and thus provide traffic - but wasn't sure the best way to track that kind of progress. My ultimate goal is to analyze the difficulty of ranking for a certain keyword via Google images. (I do know to optimize alt tag/title tag/place in relevant article etc, but wanted to know if I could research the difficulty). Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Scheduled Custom Reports Not Running
I have about 10 campaigns and 5 custom reports scheduled to run monthly for each campaign. Most of them have been running for years without issue, however, this month the majority have not run. There is an option to download past reports, yet the August 1st date is not highlighted. Anyone else having this issue or have a solution? There is one exception to this, a new campaign that had custom reports made with this design. They have a "action" button rather than "download past reports. Within this drop down is a option to download past PDFs. Is there a way this can just be downloaded without opening, like the previous reports?

Moz Rank Tracker - showing deleted subdomains results for entered keywords
We have recently deleted subdomains because they were causing duplicate page errors but now the Moz rank tracker is showing the subdomain key word results even instead of the exact url we entered. So for example wine cellar is showing up for a deleted subdomain (winecellar.vigilantinc.com) instead of the entered exact url of (vigilantinc.com/winecellars/) Please advise. Thanks!
