This makes no sense to me!

Can anyone please explain why this list might be ordered in this way? It seems so counter-intuitive!

Wow EGOL - Thanks for that insight - You successfully read the title of the page!
Yes, see how easy your question was?
I have a homepage with a PA of 52 that is outranked by an ebay page with a PA of 1 and an amazon.com page with a PA of 1. These ebay and amazon pages have zero links from other domains. My page has 45 linking root domains.
Amazon and Ebay win because GOOGLE awards high rankings to pages on authoritative domains. SEOmoz PA is irrelevant because Google determines the rankings using a different set of factors - especially "onpage" factors.
SEOmoz PA and DA are great for tracking your progress over time but they are very imperfect for predicting google rankings. If you don't believe that just watch Q&A and see how many people make a post like yours.... "WTF, my PA is higher and they are beating me"
These folks think one of these things:
-
Google is screwing them
-
SEOmoz metrics are bogus
The real answer is: 3) These folks don't understand PA and DA or they have a site with some penalty or throttle.
I would like to see SEOmoz explain these numbers and how they should be used with greater clarity and post obvious links to that content where the results of the tool is displayed.

I was actually hoping someone could explain how a page with just one linking domain and page authority of 35 can rank higher than one with 123 linking root domains and page authority of 50?
i.e. Does this suggest the number of linking root domains and page authority is irrelevant in this market?

They are listed in the order of their google ranking.

Unsolved Make Moz reindex the pages for keywords
Hi Moz says we're 18th for a phrase but that's for the page /himonsia-generators because that was the highest ranking page. If you search now for "heavy range generators" we're jumping between 10-12th position but it's for the page /products/generators - which is correct. How can I make Moz "Reindex" the pages?

Performance Metrics making no sense
Hoping someone can help us with Moz Pro reporting issues that we can't see on a client page. Screenshot 2021-06-07 at 11.36.58.png Screenshot 2021-06-07 at 12.54.48.png The mobile performance metrics are awful (apparently) but we aren't seeing this at all. Both mobile and desktop sites are very fast and pages are loading in under 1s. I have attached the Moz Pro report and a google page speed screenshot to see if any can shine any light on this issue. Thanks,

No english Url = No sense symbols?
Hey there, i have a greek content website and some of the urls are greek (I did this for better SEO score).
Moz Pro | | tsalatzi
When i am using the analyze page issues and write down the greek url it doesnt find it (for example if i wrote down "www.euroulakia.com/πως-να-βγαλω-λεφτα" it displays me back "Sorry! We weren't able to find that page when we crawled your site") BUT when i just copy paste it from the url the moz finds it. However when i copy-paste the url changes the greek characters to no-sense symbols (for example the same above url becomes : http://www.euroulakia.com/πως-να-βγαλω-λεφτα) As you can see the url is written with non-sense symbols.. My question is if google see this no-sense symbol as well instead of the greek characters? I am using Joomla and i have: Search Engine Friendly URLs and Unicode Aliases setting to yes. Can anyone please help me with this because i have a feeling that something is wrong here. Thanks in advance0 -
What is the best Dev company to use to make a white label SEO Dashboard
If anyone knows of a design someone has built, or if you know of one that we can purchase and customize ourselves that would be an option too. I am looking to have a company build us a white label SEO dashboard that integrates SEOMOZ api and SEMRUSH api. I also like majesticSEO api for the lost links only, the rest of majesticSEO I don't really care about I like SEOMOZ much better hence why I am here. I need the following 1. Someone to be able to login and add their logo if they are a reseller company of our services, so we can offer white label solutions to them. 2. I need to have an admin section where we can upload backlinks. The admin section should do the minimum 2.1 Allow us to select a website, select a link type, and upload the backlinks. It should extract specific columns from a CSV and upload them into the desired website/link area like a guest post or a social bookmark etc.. 3. We need graphs and all of the fancy looks for others to look at.. 4. We want to make sure that someone can download the report to their desktop in a doc, excel, or pdf form. Extras Automatic rank checking like IBP or Jonathen Ledgers new software etc.. If not I will just continue to use IBP it's not a big deal.

Does it make sense to have multiple campaigns for one website?
I'm new to SEO and SEOMoz. While setting up my campaigns, I was a bit confused. Do I need to setup separate campaigns for different pages of my site? For example, I run a proofreading service: www.kibin.com I obviously want to track keyword on the main page (like proofreading service), however, I also want to track keywords (like 'essay editing') on www.kibin.com/essay-editing Should these be two separate campaigns or do I just put all the keywords into one campaign for kibin.com? Thanks!

For SEOMoz Staff - Can You Make a Better Referral Badge, PLEASE?
I am going to send referrals to SEOMOZ and I want to put a badge on my site with my referral link from this page: http://www.seomoz.org/users/referrals Can you make some banners where we can just select an image src with a call to action like "FREE SEO Tools" and "Free 30 Day Trail"? Currently the only badges I see say something wack like "I Love SEOMOZ" http://www.seomoz.org/dp/badges I need something that converts higher than "I love SEOmoz". Love yah guys!
