Moz was founded by Rand Fishkin and Gillian Muessig in 2004. It was called SEOmoz Inc, and started as a blog and an online community where some of the world's first SEO experts shared their research and ideas. We launched the Beginner's Guide to SEO and our first Search Ranking Factors study, and that hub of industry expertise transformed into a small consulting firm and led us to create some of our first SEO tools.
In 2018 Moz acquired STAT Search Analytics, in order to bring together high-quality, actionable data and insights for marketers, combining Moz’s keyword and link research tools with STAT’s daily rankings and deep SERP analytics.
Moz, formerly SEOmoz, has a name that was inspired by organizations like DMOZ, Mozilla, and Chefmoz — all companies that strove for engaging their communities with openness and integrity. From the very beginning, we felt passionately about bringing that same integrity to the frustratingly opaque SEO industry.
