SEO Benefit from Moz Profile link?
-
Hi all
Excuse the rookie question, but do the website links in Moz profile give positive SEO benefits?
If so how long should it take to start seeing improvements or have the linking domain in Open explorer and is there a way to speed things up?
Thanks in advance

Looking forward to it

Thanks David! I might just visit your company profile see if you can help with what I'm doing

Well put David!

It can help, but if you are expecting a single MOZ link to skyrocket you ahead of all your competitors, that will not happen. Google looks at the complete link profile for a site, and not one singular instance. Will it help? Sure! Will it make a night and day difference? NO.
The best way to use your MOZ profile is to make yourself an active member of the community, and show that you know what you are talking about. MOZ is a leading authority of not only industry experts, but also of people looking for help and advice. Link from your website to your profile page. Link to your social accounts from your profile page. If it is something you would like to promote, then have a space on your site that states you are a member of the MOZ community. We get link referrals from MOZ all the time, and we have also gotten leads from members on here looking for help.
In short, for it to be the most effective, don't think of just the link. Think of how you can use the community to broaden your reach and exposure.

Hey guys!
Once you reach 200 points in your Moz account, they will remove the "no follow" from the first link in your profile. Check out more about how Moz points work here.
Hope this helps! And you will get a nice juicy link from Moz once this happens

If you are talking about the links you created in your profile, those are all "nofollow" so there won't be any value. To get one of them to be a "follow" link you have to earn a minimum of 200 MozPoints.

Does Moz register backlinks from Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn?
I've noticed that on sites with decent social presence and regular content posts that Moz isn't showing/recording any inbound links from Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn. Posts are regularly shared via these three channels but no inbound links ever seem to show up. Does Moz not record such inbound links, or are they all disguised using JavaScript or some other trick?

May I know multiple campaigns set up, with same site url is allowable in Moz campaign or not?
Hi Guys, I have a question regarding moz campaign. I am a Moz Pro member, have taken Standard Plan. (Time being, am not in a position to upgrade to a higher plan) I have utilized only one campaign slot among total 5 slots. I have added xyz.com website in one campaign, there I have added 350 keywords which is the maximum count we can add in a a single campaign. Still, I have plenty of keywords to track for same website xyz.com. I am not planning to use the remaining 4 campaign slots for time being for any other websites. May I know, if I can add same xyz.com website in remaining campaign slots for tracking the remaining keywords for my website?

Open Site Explorer doesn't show local directories or citation links?
Why is it that when I run a link analysis for my local business sites I don't see any links from Yelp, Google+, Facebook, any local citations? Regardless of them being follow or no follow isn't the hyperlink to a website from a Yelp profile considered a link? Same with any other local business directory? I know the company is listed on a few dozen because I can see it manually but it's not showing up in Moz? Why is it that all local directories and citations with website are omitted? And since it is not there, where is a good place to go to discover these things? I have tried whitespark. It was okay but honestly I wasn't terribly impressed. The data was good, the UI was just okay, but with smaller clients it was an initial check and then very occasional checks that needed to happen. We would go months without using it.

Why Moz Doesn't See or Count Our Backlinks?
Hi Moz Community! We have been working hard to improve our Moz metrics, measuring against a high ranking competitor to help us set our goals. Our Majestic and Webmaster Tools find tens of thousands of external backlinks pointing to our domain. That's all well and good. Moz's Open Site Explorer, however, only finds 900 total links - including internal links! This being the case, we have worked diligently to build a variety of great external backlinks, creating Bitly links and encouraging clicks on those through social promotion. Yet, our competitor has over 7,000 external backlinks in Moz's index, while ours is not growing relative to their number of backlinks. Can anyone share with us what they do to tell Moz about their backlinks? We already know we have many more backlinks than our competitor, from trusted domains with good authority, yet it seems Moz is not discovering them. We just want to understand how to use these Moz metrics to create meaningful calls-to-action. Otherwise, it seems like a gargantuan waste of time, and our team has difficulty getting buy-in from our company to put time and assets toward tasks based on our Moz numbers!

Does Feedburner URL of the Home Page Carry Link Equity?
Hi There, During an SEO Audit, I found that OSE categorizes Feedburner URL of root domains under link-equity passing and followed. For example, the following link has been categorized under link-equity passing and followed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/SpoonflowerBlog I have heard that a lot of SEOs saying feedburner links don't carry any link juice. If that's true, then why does OSE categorize feedburner URL of root domains under link-equity passing and followed? I would appreciate if someone from the Moz staff could take some to answer this. Thanks.

Root Domain and Subdomain Links OpenSite Explorer
I'm using opensite explorer trying to explore who is linking to my clients site. In the main blue area it shows total links as 20, which I understand is to the specific page. In the Root Domain Metrics it shows 4,032 external links. Sub domain Metrics shows 1,973. How do I find out where the links are? I tried creating a advanced link report with the "Links that to" are checked off as "any page on this root domain" and only shows 91 of the links? What am I doing wrong or missing?
