Moz has no Semrush importer. Export your keyword and backlink data as CSV and re-add keywords to start a new tracking history.
Quick verdict: Move to Moz Pro if you don’t need Semrush’s paid-search or content-marketing tools and want AI-visibility tracking bundled in at a lower price.
Most buyers only budget for the new subscription. This estimates the hidden labor, data-cleanup, and retraining cost of actually making the switch.
Estimate assumes: 1 hour of data-mapping/cleaning labor per 2,000 records, a blended $75/hr ops rate, tiered migration & cleaning tooling fees, and 4 hours of retraining per seat at a $45/hr fully-loaded rate.
$49 against $139 for Semrush’s SEO plan.
Included at every tier, not an add-on.
Fewer modules to configure if you only need core SEO tracking.
You lose Semrush’s paid-search research and content-marketing tools; Moz Pro does not offer equivalents.
| Step | What you do |
|---|---|
| 1Export your keyword and backlink lists | Download your tracked keywords, ranking history and key backlink reports as CSV from the old tool before cancelling. |
| 2Sign up for Moz Pro | Start the Starter plan and connect your site via its verification method. |
| 3Add your site and verify ownership | Connect the new tool to your site via its verification method (DNS record, file upload or tag). |
| 4Re-add your tracked keywords | Import your keyword list into Moz’s Keyword Tracking, mapped to the pages you’re optimizing. |
| 5Set up rank tracking | Re-add your tracked keywords so the new tool starts building its own trend line. |
| 6Cancel the old plan | Once a full reporting cycle has run in the new tool, cancel the old subscription. |
What this path doesn’t do for you:
Semrush’s paid-search competitive research and content-marketing tools (Writing Assistant, Content Marketing Platform) have no Moz Pro equivalent.

Yes: $49 against $139, both checked September 23, 2026.
Yes, Moz Pro does not offer this; keep another tool if you rely on it.
No. Each tool only has rank-tracking history from the day you started tracking a keyword with it, so switching means starting a new trend line — export your old history as a spreadsheet to keep a record of where you came from.
