Hi there!
We're excited to announce a new collection of video tutorials focused on tips and tricks with Moz tools--each in two minutes or less. We're calling this how-to series The Moz Daily SEO Fix, and over the next 30 days we will publish a new video every weekday. Our goal is to help you get the absolute most out of your Moz Pro subscription and learn new ways to accomplish your SEO objectives.
In today's Daily SEO Fix, David explains how to use Open Site Explorer's top pages tab, as well as the filter for 4xx and 5xx errors to find the pages on your site with the most potential link equity that are broken and can be redirected. 301'ing these URLs to relevant pages on your site can give your rankings a serious boost. Watch The Moz Daily SEO Fix: How to Reclaim Links Using Open Site Explorer to learn how.

Short and simple. I look forward to see the series!

Thank you MOZ for this, I will be sure to turn in each weekday. I often find a "How to" video much more beneficial than reading an article. VERY helpful.

Backlink not showing on Link Explorer
Hello, Our team have been doing link building for a month, however non of the links are coming up in MOZ Link Explorer. We used link tracker to check, and it is not linking back. when checking on the other blog's site, they are linking back but we are unable to see it in moz. For example:
Link Explorer | | WAUBIKE
Indiegogo: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/wau-the-best-feature-packed-smart-ebike#/
NewAtlas: https://newatlas.com/wau-ebike-affordable/56791/ These both links are linking back to us at www.waubike.com, and we can see it on google web masters, but we cannot see it on Moz? We have checked our server and they confirmed they are not blocking Moz's crawlers. Anyone else have this issue ?0 -
If I migrate to a new domain, does my Domain Authority score get migrated also?
For business reasons, I migrated my domain with a DA score of 85 to a new domain. After some time, the DA score on the new domain is only 45. My migration plan and redirects went smooth and all redirected with best practices in mind. I am still ranking well for almost all of the keywords where I've 301 redirected old URL to new. Any feedback welcome!

Fastest way to get new backlinks recognised by Moz?
Hi all, I have seen a few discussions / advice pieces around this, but wondered what the current view is on the fastest way to get new backlinks recognised by Moz? I have seen people say that the content needs to be shared (e.g. on Twitter), and advice around creating Bitly links. I am not convinced that these techniques are working. On a related note, my website is very large. I have around 2.5m pages. Most of these pages are 3-4 clicks from the home page, but I have a small amount of important content much higher up in the site (1-2 clicks from the home page). Does Moz crawl pages nearer the home page more frequently, or does it make a pass of all pages on the site before it starts at the beginning again? If it makes a complete pass of all pages, then presumably making my site smaller will help to get Moz to see new content more quickly? Is there any other value to be gained in making a large site smaller? Many thanks in advance, Neil.

Can I use the keyword explorer to find negative keywords?We focus on a few things in our business that we focus on but the feedback that I get from the tool is not helpful
All in all,this business focuses in a very small area,and there are things that others in our business do that we do not.Yes,a guy that knows nothing about SEO... This is a junk removal business,and some of the competition do everything.This is a small outfit that only hauls junk.Much of the competition that we have sells junk bins,we do not.We just haul junk..we do not paint,or any of the things that they do. I just keep getting things sent to me me in my list here about bin sales etc,and it is making impossible to search for keywords without a way to manage what is coming in some way..Google let me do this,but I am just hoping to use this tool entirely if I am going to pay for it.Maybe I am lost being new,and confused. How can I use this tool? Are there any settings,or anything that you can teach a non SEO minded guy like me? Thanks

Internal links - OpenSiteExplorer vs Webmaster tools
Hi guys, I run Opensiteexplorer on the website www.fazland.com (in italian...). (https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/comparisons?site=www.fazland.com) It only shows ca 240 internal links where I know there are plenty more also shown in Google Webmaster Tools. I cannot figure out why it can crawl so few links - Google shows 79.000 links found and internal links are pretty well established. Any suggestions from your experience on this difference? Cheers, Rob

Is there a easy way to take all links from O.S.E and add them to My Google WMT.CSV file?
Good morning everyone. I have recently discovered that someone has targeted me with a negative SEO campaign and I have been inundated with 13,000 anchor text links from spam sites pointing to my domain. I have run Open Site Explorer and gotten all of my backlinks on my desktop but what I need to do is add them to the back links .csv file from Google Webmaster Tools so that I can upload the file to my CognitiveSEO campaign. What I would like to know is, does anyone know how to transfer all backlinks from the open site explorer.csv file over to the webmaster tools .csv file in a bulk action without having to copy each link individually? I don't really have any working knowledge of excell in this capacity for SEO so, If anyone could explain how this would be done I would be eternally grateful because adding one link at a time is very painful and very time consuming. Thank you. Cam

Sites internal links are not showing as inbound links
My sites internal links are not showing as inbound links while my competitor site’s internal links are showing as their inbound links (In OSE). Is my site’s inter-linking weak? Or there could be other reasons.

How to increase number of internal links
Hi all, Using Open Site Explorer and Moz, we're getting only 50 internal links and like to know why. Our site is an online store with a quite good DA (26, see attached files) comparing with competitors, and all pages are in sitemap since several months, and crawled by google. Assuming that we have more than 2000 products in our site, and more of 10000 crawled pages with a link to the home page, we can't understand how "Total internal links" returns only 50. How can we increase internal links? Perhaps we misunderstood the meaning of "Total internal links" in page metrics. What does this value exactly mean? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. wuud3Lu RRvn31p
