@Tom-Capper (My mistake, I got too excited - latest I've seen is 2 weeks out.)

@buckii_modernoffice

Is this question about Moz Pro?

If so, look out for an announcement this week.

@PlanMen_WFM

You can skip that step, as many do - if that's not working for you, I recommend contacting CS

@ukdigitalseo

I'm expecting something to roll out this week or next.

@PlanMen_WFM

Just to reiterate what's written elsewhere - the vast majority of our tool does not leverage GA data, and many of our customers choose not to integrate it (or use another analytics platform).

That said, I'm expecting something to roll out this week or next.

@RenieShaw

You don't even need to have GA at all for us to track a site - many sites use other platforms after all.

If you had issues skipping that step in setup, contact our help team and they should be able to sort it for you.

@RachelRivers

Latest I've heard is that our integration will be updated to support GA4 some time next month.

I should emphasise though, depending what you are evaluating Moz against - most of our peers don't support analytics integration at all. It's not a core functionality, more something that can be used to augment certain reports.

@CatJam

We're aiming to launch before the changeover, I can't say much more than that right now.

In the meantime, can you tell me how you're using GA data in reports/audits, and maybe I can help? GA data is used very little in Moz, so it may be that there are alternative ways for you to get the same information.

Of course if you're just using Moz to report GA data, then we can't replicate that until the integration is complete - although, if I'm honest, it's probably better to present that data directly or in a free but purpose-built tool like Looker Studio than via an SEO tool.

@znjfl

I think you are saying that you posted on this forum, with a post containing a backlink, and were banned.

External links from Moz forum posts are tagged as <nofollow ugc>, and in any case the purpose of this forum is not to advertise your services - it is to discuss SEO problems, news, and tactics.

If the "Big Industry List" I want to build is a useful website section that gets found, even if the traffic is unlikely to be my buyers in that moment, can that improve my SEO?

Yes, potentially. If it does well and users are seeking it out, that sends certain signals to Google. As would brand recognition and external links from said users. But, the page does have to do very well to achieve those things.

Or do those content pages need external inbound links in order to be valuable for SEO because it would raise our DA?

Not necessarily, although popular resources tend to generate external links organically.
