I don't believe this has anything to do with Wikipedia. Google has been, in some cases, showing site/folder names in place of URLs for a couple of years now. There's a post on it at http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2011/06/google-experiments-with-removing-urls.html from 2011.

RE: Shell we provide dofollow outbound links from our website?
And once your site gets out there as a place with followed links, you'll have more spam issues to deal with than you'll want.

RE: Using pictures from another domain
Egol echoes what I was going to write. Would you trust someone else with a major portion of your website?
What immediately came to mind was this MySpace incident with John McCain in 2007. http://techcrunch.com/2007/03/27/john-mccains-myspace-page-hacked/

RE: How to cancel a campaign
From your Campaign Dashboard, go to Manage Campaigns. You can archive or delete campaigns from there.

RE: 2 sets of stats for same site
One is looking at the root domain, and one is looking at the subdomain of www. I'm sorry I don't have a link handy for you right now (not feeling the greatest), but in short it's looking at metrics pointing to domain.com versus www.domain.com

RE: Any recommended hosting company?
This is a "how long is a piece of string" question. There's just not enough information to give you an answer.
Like Justian mentioned, what are you needs? Is this going to be a static wordpress site with five pages that gets updated every two months and expects to see a hundred visits a day? Is it an ecommerce site built on a particular platform that also has a forum and is going to have 20,000 visits a day, with lots of custom scripting?

RE: Site that's 301 redirected is ranking for brand
Have you used a server header checker tool to make sure that it's a 301 redirect? Especially one that emulates googlebot, to make sure Google is seeing that 301?

RE: Why are organic search results vastly different on Bing, Google and Yahoo Search
The search engines generally personalize your search results, based on a number of factors -- information from if you are signed in (even to gmail), your previous search history, and your location, for just a few. Different browsers would have different histories and different accounts, which helps explain the different results. Generally, try to use an incognito window of a browser to search, to help minimize personalization.
Bing and Yahoo use the same algorithm and index, so the results there should be fairly similar. Google uses a different a algorithm and index (and tends to have more pages indexed than Bing), so its results will be different.
If you haven't yet, verify your website in Google and Bing Webmaster Tools. They will help tell you of any problems that they spot with your site.

RE: Anyone else seeing completely wrong metrics for rank tracker?
We do have a known issue (http://health.moz.com/) that rankings are missing for some accounts. We are pushing out a fix for this. I'm not sure of the timeframe for the fix, but do know that it's not you, we're the ones who have messed up and it'll be fixed soon.

RE: Can you adjust the timeframe from weekly to monthly in the Dashboard Overview report?
In the Dashboard Overview, there's a timeframe that says weekly. You can change that to monthly. Is that what you were looking for?

RE: Moz is giving me an error message and I cannot add new campaigns
Thanks for the feedback Ryan. Right now, the health.moz.com site is the easiest way for us to notify people of problems like this, as it is a tumblr site that several people at Moz have access to and can be easily updated. Putting a message in the Moz app itself is a bit more complicated process, and involves changing code. We do try to put messages there when it's a longer outage, but it's not something that we can just put in in 30 seconds in the middle of the night (like we can with health.moz.com).

RE: Different steps on the funnel competing with each other on the SEPR
If you don't want the second page showing at all, exclude it in robots.txt.

RE: Moz is giving me an error message and I cannot add new campaigns
It's a known problem right now (see http://health.moz.com/ for a list of known issues). It cropped up in the middle of the night Seattle time, and now that it's morning people are getting to the office and working on this.

RE: Can we do Citation posting for national business?
Then there is no need for citation building for your NAP, as you are not considered a local business. One thing you don't have to worry about!

RE: Can we do Citation posting for national business?
I'm asking for a second opinion, but I'm pretty sure the answer is no. Your business is virtual and people don't come to your office to do business with you, correct?

RE: How can I get a list of all the links going out from my website
OSE and GWT are useful for links in to the website, but not links going out from the website.
-
RE: When I type link:mydomainname.com in Google I don't see any result, why?
You still have only a small sampling with those major brands. You're probably seeing more because there are more links to sample from for the big brands.

RE: Affect of dissavow upload on Moz DA
Hi! Moz can't access your Google Webmaster Tools or disavow file, so you won't see a change in DA by disavowing those links. Google will know about the change, but we won't. There's another thread asking for this feature, and we're discussing internally if anything around this is feasible, but any implementation would be a ways out right now.

RE: How to find internal pages linking to a URL?
If you download the CSV report, it should list the referring URL.
