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.

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.

Low KDS but high DA for all page 1 sites
Hi there A KDS report question... My client has a keyword with a low KDS (garden hose - 28). Intuitively this seemed too low, and when I checked what ranks, it is all high quality brand sites with high DAs. Admittedly the specific pages ranking have low PAs, but I can't see my client ever being able to compete with these big boys right now. How come the KDS is so low? This seems just wrong as the metric implies it is a good keyword to target - I know there are always lots of other things to check, but this does make me less confident with KDS reporting Anyone got any thoughts on this? Many thanks

I have a domain with six months of data in my PRO account. The MozRank and MozTrust is still 0.00. Is this normal? If not, what on Earth am I doing wrong?!?

How does moztrust compare with google page rank?
I have a trial Seomoz membership. I've been comparing my site to some of the competitor websites and Im confused about the moztrust vs google page rank. For instance some of my competitors have higher moztrust but my site has a higher google page rank. Isn't moztrust meant to duplicate google pagerank?? Why would these vary so much?

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?
