Moz is not indexing all my backlinks
-
Why is there a difference in the backlinks of my website when checked in moz.com and SEMrush.com.
-
Same reason there's a difference between the number of backlinks between SEMrush and Majestic, Majestic and Ahrefs, Ahrefs and MOZ or all of the third-party backlink tools and Search Console.
These tools scan the web at different paces and start from different places. That's why some of them find backlinks that others don't.

Hi Malik,
That difference is because Moz and SEMrush uses their own index.
Also keep in mind that they update their index in differente paces. Moz does it nearly once a month. Also.
I can only tell you how Moz bot works: It starts with a base set list of domains, where following all links inside that sites. If One of the sites having links to your website is not linked previously and Moz bot does not get to that site, you will never see it in OpenSite Explorer.It may be tricky to understand. Is it clear?
Hope it helps.
Best luck.

Unsolved Why am I not seeing search.yahoo.com in my site's backlink profile?
When looking at the backlinks for a client's competitor I found that they had a backlink on search.yahoo.com/reviews and our domain (harmonyhit.com) did not. I was using the Link Explorer tool. However, when I go to yahoo Search I see that the website of harmonyhit.com is indexed in Yahoo search and has links to the site. Also, it's sitemap has been recently crawled in Bing webmaster tools which Yahoo uses. Why does our client have the backlink accounted for and we do not?

How do I find http backlinks to my domain?
Hi, We spotted a number of sites linking to us from http sites, not https sites. How can I use backlink tools to find just those from http sites? Right now I'm looking at exporting a spreadsheet with 3.3 million entries and filtering - and there's not one person here who wants to do that! Thanks in advance.

Moz was unable to crawl your site on Jun 22, 2020\. We were unable to access your site due to a page timeout on your robots.txt, which prevented us from crawling the rest of your site.
Site: www.kpmg.us Getting robots.txt timeout fail since 02/29/20. We've checked our server logs and see no errors. Went through all the steps of the "Troubleshooter". Updated robots.txt to allow rogerbot full access: User-agent: rogerbot

MOZ competitor analysis tool
Hi Guys Has anyone also noticed that the MOZ competitor analysis tool does not always pick up on all back-links? If I put two competitors into MOZ and Ahrefs I get so many more back-link info from Ahrefs. Has anyone else experienced the same issue? Thanks Jon

Question in regards to Comparing Metrics with MOZ tools
Hi all! After using the "Compare Links Metrics" in the research tools, a few questions popped up. Particularly, in regards to what key metrics to look for when determining if a websites outbound links are trustworthy and may pass Link-juice. Basically, "if my link is put on that website, will search engines trust it"? I've copied an example below and typed a few comments next to particular metrics. Please share some insight them: Page Authority: 48 Page MozRank: 4.94 -Is 4.94 considered OK? Page MozTrust: 4.96 -Is 4.96 considered OK? Internal Equity-Passing Links: 2,819 External Equity-Passing Links: 2,326 -Lower = better? Total Equity-Passing Links: 5,145 Total Internal Links: 2,844 Total External Links: 2,383 - Lower = better?

SEOmoz not showing latest backlinks
Hi, How come open site explore(come with SEOmoz tool) not showing new backlinks created by me a month ago? I faced same issue while using other tools for the same. All of them show up old backlinks but not the new ones created recently. However, the Google Webmaster Tool updates me with this recent development. Any reason?
