MozTrust VERY low
-
Our mozTrust number is just 1.06. Looking at the rankings for important keywords for us, the sites around us all have over 4.
However on closer inspection, even some with a mozTrust of over 4 don't really have much of a different linking profile than our site.
With one competitor, I've looked on OpenSiteExplorer comparing link metrics, and we get tickmarks for everything other than mozTrust (1.06 us, 4.5 them).
What could posssibly be causing such a low number, and how important a factor is this in SERPS?

Yeah I had read that, I just wasn't sure why our page was so much lower than the others, especially ones that didn't even seem to have any particularly strong links back from anything that looked particularly authoratitive.

this explains moztrust

Although seomoz do a good job at trying to gage these things, it is not to say that they see it the same way as SE's

I should add this is on a page on our site, not the root.

I'VE DONE EVERYTHING RIGHT BUT STILL GET LOW GOOGLE RANKING
Moz Pro Dashboard compared my site to three competitors' site. My site is better in every aspect. My DA is higher, I have four times more external links, I have more relevant content than my competition, my site also is the fastest, I have solved all redirect issues, there is no broken link internally or externally. We are custom home builders. So all our sites have numerous full screen images. I have optimized all of them. When I ran WebPageTest on my competition, they all fail. My site got A's in all categories. The three competitors' sites rank first, second and third. My site ranks bottom on the 2nd page. Since my site was online last January, I have spent thousands of dollars on SEO work. Its url is www.pokudesign.com I am hoping somebody can point me in the right direction. I am attaching a screen shot of my Moz Pro Dashboard. frEpZ

MozTrust
One of our clients competitors are showing similar MozTrust numbers even though Open site explorer is only showing 10 in-bound links for them and our client is showing 70 or so. The competitor’s in-bound links are not showing any more quality to them than our clients so one great link pulling their numbers up does not seem to be the answer. Where else can I look to try and determine why the competitor would be pulling in similar MozTrust Numbers? Our client has a DA of 27 and the competitor is 15.

High Page Authrority, low Domain Authority. Good?
I am seeking links from real estate content sites to promote a free course I have about apartment investing. The response has been good from the first five sites I approached, with three granting links. In putting the linking pages on Open Site Explorer though I noticed on had a PA of 40, but a DA of 28. Of course I am grateful for the link, but usually it is the DA that is higher. What does it mean when the PA is higher than the DA, and would a link from this page help me? Any help is much appreciated.

Why has my MozTrust & DA dropped
Hi The company i work for are in the middle of relaunching our product, so during this time we have not been generating much traffic to the site. We are still getting about 800 SEO visits a month, however, as we aren't doing email marketing our site traffic overall has dropped. I have noticed that since October or MozTrust and Domain Authority seems to be dropping. Our DA was at 18 then in the space of a few weeks has dropped to 10. Our Moztrust was at about 3 and now is at 0. Our links to the site seems to be disappearing to according to Moz, however other back linking website are saying they are still there. Could someone maybe shed some light on what i may have done wrong to lose these two things and so quickly. This all happened mid to late October. During the Hummingbird release we were fine! We have also just updated out website with lots of new content. In fact increased it 4x. There are great internal links throughout the site. Thank you

What factors destroy MOZtrust?
In the process of trying to figure out why a site has suddenly seen a massive fall in traffic and just noticed that MozTrust has suddenly gone to zero - was previously around 2. Any ideas on factors most likely to result in total loss of MOZtrust for a site?

Why is a low ranking site outperforming a higher one?
Hi, I've got a question here that is more about learning than about rectifying this specific situation, as it is a low traffic (low dollar) situation. I would appreciate your help. Thanks, Ken The targeted long-tail is: carrollton ga internet marketing The targeted site is: http://www.kennethlewis.com/ Yet, when I run the keyword search I get this other site of mine, which is older, but has much worse metrics. http://www.breemawellness.com/ On this site, all I did was put a in-text link on it and added the keywords to my title tags. Open Site Explorer shows these metrics: KennethLewis.com 34, 23, 18, 98 vs. BreemaWellness 27, 15, 7, 10. Both are on the same server. Note: -Until two months ago the KennethLewis.com was only partially about Internet Marketing- mildly so, actually- and it was a 2-3 page iWeb not-optimized site. But BreemaWellness has never been about Internet Marketing, and those words were just added two months ago for the first time. -KennethLewis.com gets regular content changes, to the blog. BreemaWellness.com almost never gets touched. Thoughts?
