    Hello! Sam from Moz's Help Team here! So -  after being found, newly discovered links have the ability to be populated into our index in about 3 days. However, there are a lot of factors which can affect our ability to find and index links to your site. It's important to note that we are always adding new data to our index, but it may take some time for us to discover backlinks to your site based on factors like crawlability of the referring pages, quality of the links and the referring pages, and more. If you are not seeing links that you know you have, you may want to make sure that they can be indexed. It is also a good idea to check to see if we've indexed the page on which that link is found. If we haven't indexed the referring page yet, you won't see your link in our index. You can also add links to Link Tracking Lists. Once you add a link to your tracking lists we will add that page to be crawled. As long as it is accessible to our crawler, you should see the link in our index as soon as we can index those pages. Lastly, I have a great guide here with some things to check around why we may not have found your links yet: https://moz.com/help/link-explorer/link-building/moz-isnt-finding-your-links If you'd like any further information, please feel free to pop us an email over at help@moz.com. We do also have a great guide to Domain Authority just here: https://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority

    Hi, No, MOZ does not have any option to disavow links and you should not be worried about disavowing links in Moz. Instead, disavow them from the Google Search Console because Google is the search engine that ranks your site according to proper linking.

    Hi, Great question, Link Explorer and the Links tab of Moz Pro Campaigns are both tied to our Link index, which is constantly updating. After being found, newly discovered links have the ability to be populated into our index in about 3 days. When discovered or lost links are found, we'll update our database to reflect those changes in your scores and link counts. We prioritize the links we crawl based on a machine learning algorithm to mimic Google's index. This does not mean that DA and PA will change with every data update, though; it will only change if we find new link data for a respective site. I'm sorry I can't tell you exactly when your DA will update it depends on when we find new equity passing backlinks to your site. You can read more about our new Link Explorer tool and our index here. ​ You can also read more about how our Link index compares with our competitors here https://backlinko.com/best-backlink-checker Feel free to reach out to help@moz.com with any further questions

    Hi snjaoieiw, To get a detailed answer from Moz staff on what DA is, you might consider searching the Q&A forum. In short, though, it is a Moz metric (not a Google or Bing metric) that takes into consideration the number (and quality) of backlinks your website has. That said, have you been working on building up high quality backlinks? -Zack


  • If the blog post is under 2000 words and have a singular focus, I would just have it on one page (better for search, printing & etc.). If it split, the objective may be for advertising to increase pageviews.

  • Better yet look at the Linking Domains and Inbound link tool on MOZ. Then you can see what links they have and what you should get to beat them.

  • Took a quick look at your site... you are not on the first page of Google because you have not earned it. If you want to earn it, write some real content about the subject. What is it?  Who cares?  Why is it important? Now go deeper on all of those.  Start writing a library about this.  Having it sprinkled in the titles of a few articles and in the title tag of your homepage doesn't earn anything. #1 positions, even #10 positions are earned by becoming the global school for something. If this is where you want to be seen, then when a visitor lands on the homepage  of your site they will realize that they have arrived at the right place.

  • Hi! In this case Moz, isn't the smartest with their tool. What they're doing here is just checking the total source code apparently for the number of keyword matches in there. But what this does is that it's also checking all your META tags in the head. In your case I see at least another 4 mentions in there from OG:Description, OG:Title and Twitter:Title and Twitter:Description. Another 4 mentions are currently happening in your Schema.org at the top for Organization, that's where I just stopped looking for more instances as they're probably just hidden somewhere else in either ALT tags or other snippets. So I would, in this case, go with your own calculations for just using the number of mentions that is on the page and ignore the number that Moz is reporting here. Hopefully, Moz will change this over time and only check the occurrences in the actual BODY content. Martijn.

  • Description is empty and H1 missing. You could add an H1 to Tag in the Template (not sure if possible for squarespace) wich somehow says the name of the tag and to define it more, Articles marked up with <nameoftag>.  Or use the Text in Header for your H1.  If you cant add descriptions, you cant do anything here. But imho, you dont need to add H1 or MD here.</nameoftag> All you would achieve is , you will not see the issues again. But I am really not sure if you should  index these Tags. It allways depends how much different categories and tags are and how much stuff is in it.  How unique and usefull they are. But in most cases it is better to noindex these . They are oftentimes thin (your example to links with image and excerpt) and duplicate (your example, bet thats 100% exists elsewhere - more than one time) content.  Maybe you can do that. These Tags will never rank for any term, so why optimize them?  Not worth the work. The question is: is it useful to have them? And: is it useful to have them indexed? Is a Visitor using these pages? Are they needed for anything? BTW - Some of your Alt-Attributes are toooo long - I mean, they should describe the image and you sometimes did it how it should be. But in some image-alt's are dont know 200 words?

  • Sir , Thank you for replying, i will explain step by step what i have done; Old site: https://www.selldealsmango.com/ New site: https://www.dealsmango.com/ first i have remove all pages from my old site, than only home page left, i then remove all the data from home and on that blank page i posted the new site URL. by clicking on that old site URL you will know what i am trying to explain. but i am using canonical tag  for old site also. than i have generated XML site maps of both sites and uploaded on google search console. after that i request for indexing and duplicate canonical error occurs. in 2nd step i have put 301 redirect from old site to new site and than again i have request for indexing but error remain the same.

  • Make sure you look at your URL bar when claiming that two URLs are "the same exact landing page". Just because they look the same, that doesn't mean they are the same. A page is defined first and foremost by its location, its URL. If the URL is different, it's not the exact same page

  • Not a problem! It't great that Moz's crawler picked up on this issue as it could have caused some problems over time, if it were allowed to get out of control

  • When you syndicate content, you give one of your articles to another website.  They publish it on a page and their page begins to rank in the SERPs for the keywords of the article.  If their website is more powerful than your website they are most likely going to rank above you in the SERPs for the root, short tail and long tail keywords.  Even if they give you a link in the article, their page is going to rank above your page in the SERPs. If you give one of your articles to several other websites and they publish it, the result will be several pages in the SERPs with your article.  What happens then, is Google sees all of these identical articles.  They don't like that and they will filter most of those articles and send them to the supplemental index - where they will get almost no traffic. Some people will argure....  "I published my copy of the article first and Google will rank me better or they will not filter my page."   From my experience, those people are wrong much of the time at best and most of the time at worst.   I know this for a fact because I have published articles given to me by other people and my site almost always outranks their site in the SERPs after I publish.  I warn them that this will happen, and let them know if I publish their article I will not remove it.  After that, they don't offer me any more articles. Syndication should be done for one reason.   You have a message and you want to get it out everywhere.   For that purpose you can give your article to a lot of other websites and they will display it to their audience. However, if you are trying to monetize a website, syndicating articles will most likely be damaging to your rankings for these reasons.  1) your articles on other websites will outrank you, 2) sometimes your article on your website will be filtered,  3) if Google sees that you are trying to build links from article syndication they might turn off the value of those links or even use them as part of a penalty, and 4) if you give lots of the articles on your website to other websites Google might see your site as "having nothing unique" and demote your entire site in the rankings.

  • Hey there! Sam from Moz's Help Team here! Sorry for the confusion here! This doesn't mean that you don't have any internal links on your site, but rather that we don't yet have any internal links in our index for your site. If you want to check your site and audit it for internal links and other features I would recommend using the Site Crawl feature in Moz Pro. You may be interested know that we have lots of handy guides and videos on our Help Hub, including this one which explains why you're seeing 0 internal links on our FAQs here https://moz.com/help/moz-pro/links/overview If there is anything else I can help you with please do let me know.

  • Hi there! Thanks so much for the great question! Sorry for the confusion here. This alert means that at the time we last crawled freexy.net it was redirecting to youlovelife.com/?domain=freexy.net. When querying a site in Link Explorer, it is not a live check of that site so if this redirect has been updated or removed since the last time we crawled it for our index, this will not be reflected in the tool until we crawl it next. Once we recrawl freexy.net and don't see that redirect, this notice will be removed. I hope this helps to clarify! If you have further questions, feel free to email us at help@moz.com.

  • Hello Russ, I have another question concerning content suggestions. If I get it right the content suggestions are "topic" that I should cover in my content. Let's take the keyword "Dordogne family bike tour" (one of my keywords). Moz content suggestions tell me the I covered Rocamadour.  However, I also have Sarlat in my text but apparently content suggestion doesn't say I covered it ... Why ? I have an idea ! I believe that in order to cover a " topic"  you need what I would call "indicator words" that are part of the same semantic group as the "topic" I am trying to cover correct ? For the world "Sarlat" it seems that I don't have any words related to "Sarlat", whereas I have words related to Rocamadour. Is it correct ? How do I know which words are semantically connected to Rocamadour ? How do I know if it is the word, hilltop village, pilgrimage destination, Chapelle Notre dame, the Black Madonnna status , all of those words or other words that triggered the fact that Rocamadour is covered ? Finally, does or do the words that trigger need to be in the same sentence, same paragraph or anywhere on the webpage is ok ? Thank you,

  • Hi thanks for the reply. These are the following i have done to my site and have kept these changes as so for close to 5 months that i had acquired the site for. 1. I turned off robot crawling for the entire site 2. I only have 2 pages which are privacy policy and home page (because the website is going under construction so i havne't added more pages) 3. I don't have any contact info or phone number listed on the site. So these changes i have mentioned line up to what you have mentioned and makes better sense now. So once i launch the website and everything is flushed out just the way i need it, should i expect the spam score to reset itself to 0% then? Thanks.
