Hey!

Thanks for reaching out to us,

We recently sunset Open Site Explorer because this past June, we released a brand new link tool called Link" data-id="entity-ember10592">Link Explorer.  Link Explorer includes an updated link index with vastly more data, an improved DA and PA score, and new features like Link Tracking Lists. Moving forward, you can use Link Explorer for your link data needs.

For more details on Link Explorer, please check out our Help Hub here: https://moz.com/help/guides/link-explorer

With regards to your second question, unfortunately we do not provide SEO support via our support channels but hopefully someone in our community will be able to advise

Feel free to reach out to help@moz.com if you have any other questions,

Eli

Thanks Vijay!

Also something to note though is that for us to update any 301 link, we would need to re-discover the old pages to be able to follow and update the metrics. This is not likely common for sites with lower authority since old links are not continuously shared on new pages/articles/blogs.

Link Explorer works solely through link discovery and crawling. For every link we index/crawl, these links are not guaranteed to be re-crawled.

Hey!

You can find you SEO competitors in a few steps with  Keyword Explorer, which is included in our Moz Pro subscription.

1. Enter your site into Keyword Explorer https://moz.com/explorer/site/overview
2. Select and search a keyword that you’re ranking on the top page for (the top 10 results)
3. Click SERP Analysis
4. Save the top ranking URLs

You can do the same for a target keyword

1. Enter your target keyword  into Keyword Explorer https://moz.com/explorer/site/overview
2. Click on SERP Analysis
3. Save the top ranking URLs

You can then go on to find competitor overlap to build on your keyword lists and get content ideas.

1. Enter your site into Keyword Explorer
2. Enter two of the competitors URLs that you just collected
3. Click on the Venn diagram to see the areas of most overlap to see keywords the top ratings urls also rank for
4. Use this ideas to build keyword lists, add them to your Campaign to track and optimise your content.

Any further questions, feel free to reach out to help@moz.com

Yep, whatever country you are tracking

Hey,

Great question!

A local keyword will show how you are ranking specifically in the location listed for that keyword, while a national keyword shows how the keyword ranks across the entire country.

The locales we include are specific to the Google search engine only, and our list is based on a finite postal code database, so you may not see every locale you would like to track in the list. It is helpful to be very specific when entering the locale and it can help to include a specific neighborhood, state, or county name when entering the locale (e.g. Melbourne, Victoria vs. Melbourne, Australia).

Please note that if you track keywords nationally and locally, or across multiple locales, each location will count as a separate keyword in your total keyword limit.

All the best,

Eli

Hey,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

Unfortunately your screenshot/attachment is not showing up here. Would you be able to contact us at help@moz.com so that we can look into this issue.

Thanks,

Eli

Hey,

Sorry about this. Some are definitely weighted more than others (although I am not privy to know the exact weightings). The characteristics are used in a machine learning model to generate the final spam score.

This does not mean that your site is definitely spammy. The percentage of your spam score represents a wide variety of potential signals ranging from content concerns to low authority metrics. Since this is based on correlation with penalization rather than causation, the solution isn't necessarily to change these factors on your site. If you have not had any penalties you shouldn’t be concerned about a Low or Medium score. It is best to use this percentage figure to judge the quality of inbound links to your site, giving you a signal to help you determine which of those links needs some further investigation and, perhaps, even removal.

Sorry I can't be of any more help here. Any questions about specific links, feel free to reach out to help@moz.com

All the best,

Eli

Hey,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

You can create a Campaign solely for a subdomain or subfolder by selecting the +Advanced setting in the Campaign set-up; just click the check box there and it will limit our Campaign audit to the pages on that specific subdomain or subfolder. From there, you can see in your Campaign Setting if you've set it up for just that chunk of your site, or for the entire root domain.

I've got a guide to this process that I think may help.

With regard to your second question, feel free to reach out to help@moz.com so that we can take a closer look

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Eli

Hey,

Unfortunately this would not be possible (especially as we recently released a new index which changed how DA/PA was calculated, therefore you wouldn't be able to compare against previous results).

You can see history for DA for near enough the past year in Link Explorer. We have a great guide on it here: https://moz.com/help/link-explorer

Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be more than happy to help!

Have a great day!

​Eli

Hey there!

Do you have Campaign set up for these specific sections of your site? If so, feel free to reach out to help@moz.com so that we can take a closer look

Hey!

Thanks for reaching out to us!

Spam Score in Links and Link Explorer represents the percentage of sites with similar features we've found to be penalized or banned by Google.

Our machine learning model identified 27 common features among the millions of banned or penalized sites in the data we fed it. (They are not weighed equally)

You can read more about Spam Score on our Help Hub - including an awesome video that explains how to use the score as well as the factors we use to calculate the score.

If you have any other questions feel free to reach out to help@moz.com

I am not an SEO consultant but I am happy to try and guide you in the right direction - perhaps this link may help? https://moz.com/community/q/410-or-301-after-url-update

Is their also the possibility that you could 301 to a relevant page for a better user experience?

All the best,

Hey Brett,

Those Content Suggestions are there to show you how other sites are linking (and what anchor text they're using) to rank well.

The anchor text is the phrase that site used to link to themselves, so we're suggesting you optimize your content for similar keywords in order to compete in the rankings with those terms.

Check out this great link for more information: https://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-content-marketing/content-ideation

Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be more than happy to help!
