Unsolved Links to my website are wrong
-
Hi,
I have launch a new website, lorraine on october of 2021 and I have added it to a bunch a local and national directories to improme it local rankings.
But when I get the domain authority and link data from MOZ it has only ten links and no one of them is from local/national directories.
I have three questions:
- Do you know if it is normal that after 9 months DA is 1?
- Is there any problem with local/national directory links?
- I dont like buy links like others do but it seems the only way to improve domain authority and rankings.
-
- Fluctuations in domain authority are common, this might be the effect of the bad links got from the directories.
- Try to get quality links from the local directories.
- You can always build organic do-follow links through guest posting it helps in building your Domain authority.
If you're willing to do guest posting, I would say use Postifluence. It will make your guest posting work easier by finding the top ranking guest posting sites and it's quite an affordable tool.

@nkgrg said in Links to my website are wrong:

Very interesting...
I have this one link directory: https://www.qdq.com/lorraine-1196639
But If I google it:
site:qdq.com inurl:lorraine
It seems to not been indexed.
How can I index this page If it isnt of my property?
Thanks

@agnieszka4n Linked from where?
-
I think it is correct, you have a PA of 16 on your domain with these links, then the DA will increase more slowly no doubt.

@lorraine-es
Hi Lorraine,
I was there where you are right now.
But now I have gone far away by using some methods- try to submit your sites to high ranking directories, forums etc.
- Google this and submit your site manually.
inurl:edu/forum/*register
Hope it helps.

@lorraine-es have you linked directories?

Backlinking Strategy
I am particularly new to the field of SEO and Backlinking and I have recently started my own blog feel free to have a look (https://thehorseradar.com/). What I wanted to find out is how can I achieve a DA of at least 30. What should be my link-building strategy? & what steps should I take first? With an abundance of overwhelming info available online I have gotten really confused about what would work and what would not. If someone would lay out the steps needed to be taken, I would be extremely grateful! Thank You

Can Foreign Language Backlinks Be Valuable?
I've done a lot of searching on this subject, but I keep seeing conflicting answers. Are backlinks from foreign language websites valuable? For example, a travel website in English picks up a couple backlinks in Indonesian language (and other languages) from foreign sites that have a DA of 60-70 or higher. The topic is partially related, but the language is totally different. Would those links still be valuable for the English website's DA? Has this ever been answered conclusively? Thanks

Unsolved Moz doesn't find backlinks for months / link tracking list offline
Hi there
Product Support | | startrek123
I want to share a big problem with you. Moz tracking list seems to be offline or having trouble finding links. I have an example:
The page where the backlink has been placed was created months ago. As you can see on the picture:
Link to the page is http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/profile/tableauxdumonde
Backlink on that page is https://ggongtime.com/ Picture shows clearly that the page of backlink (Microsoft) has been indexed and already has got it's own backlinks in Moz (8) but it is still not linking to the backlink website (ggongtime.com).
I've also attached a picture of page source where you can clearly see that it is a html link and is dofollow.
The problem remains since 3 months and I want to find out what is going on. This Microsoft page is one of example. There are hundreds of other pages being found, or not, and are still not showing up in Link Explorer on website's portfolio.
I want to know if there is a technical problem with link explorer, or anything else, because this is a serious problem for me. moz problem.png0 -

Crawling and Links - Showing Links
Hello I have a campaign in Moz that shows a new site as having no domain authority and no links. The site does have links to it, but they don't show up on OSE. Does Moz count links in the comments section of blogs (or is this counted as social, when the commenting system is one that requires facebook login?) I know blog comments are not great for SEO, I just use them when the post/link is 100% genuinely relevant. The site does have actual links on websites not just comment links, so it isn't showing any type of link. What is the best way to see the links the site has? Thanks!

Open Site Explorer and Expired Links?
Hi guys, I've been checking a few domains for SEO purposes and it appears that OSE is indexing a lot of links which no longer exist, this has been the case for over 6 months - does OSE cleanse expired links? As I'm sure they will be contributing to authority in the eyes of Moz?
