MOZ Bar recognizes a link as No-Followed even when there's no evidence of nofollow nor external tag
-
Hi!
I've seen that the Moz bar recognizes some links as NoFollowed, even when technically are followed.
One example of that is this page:https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTraining
I've attached an image to clarify.
The link is just: <a class="https" <span="">href="https://rmotr.com"> there is no evidence of no following tag (such as external, nofollow, etc).Thanks!

Ha! I've never imagined that.
Thanks for the reply! -
Hi Gaston! Kristina from Moz's Help Team here.
I had a chance to peek at this site and it looks like the entire page is tagged as "no follow" which is why MozBar would be reporting all the links on the page as such, as well. Here's a screenshot of where in the MozBar we were able to confirm this: http://screencast.com/t/5L0w6AQl
As always, you can reach out to our team with any question of this type in the future by shooting us an email at help@moz.com!
I hope this helps, but certainly let me know if there's anything else I'm able to assist with.
Thank you,
-Kristina

Can you tell me about the impact of Do-follow and No-follow backlinks for increasing Moz DA?
Have Do-follow backlinks and No-Follow backlinks same value to increase Domain Authority in Moz? Recently, I have created 290 profile backlinks which was do-follow. But from yesterday I have seen all backlinks are no-follow now according to the decision of sites' owners. My site's DA has already increased up to 35. Will this DA fall gradually from now? Apart from it, if I have created same backlinks for my another site; will my DA be 35? Please try to clarify it. My site is: https://kodnest.com Thanks. Waiting for your valuable answer from Moz official.

Are Moz-specific ids available in response sets from V2 calls?
I'm assuming that moz assign a unique internal id to each page, subdomain and root_domain. When making v2/links requests, are these moz-specific ids available? Currently, when gathering backlinks for a client we're generating our own ids. Maintaining uniqueness is costly time-wise. "results": [{

Moz Api Integration with Google Data Studio
I want to automate my competition research process. Right now my competition research is completely manual which is ok if working in a small project. Usually, start looking at Google for the best sites for a specific niche. In an excel sheet insert the URL in a column and start to put information in next columns, information such as DA, PA, backlinks, page speed, schemas validation and stuff like that. As I mentioned for a small project I usually take 10 websites as a reference to analyze how difficult can be rank a website. The problem starts when I have to scale when I have to evaluate 100 or 200 or even more websites in different niches or target location or industry. Does not make sense keep doing manually. So my question is there any way to connect the Moz API to Google Data Studio or Google Sheet

How much attention should I pay to Moz's DA/PA?
Hola! I've been optimising a site since October and our hard work has yielded a sizeable increase in organic traffic, revenue, quality, relevant links and Search Metrics scoring since commencing the campaign. After yesterday's Moz update, the DA has dropped slightly and a number of pages' PAs have dropped significantly (i.e. from 27 to 17). So here are my questions: My 'white hat' optimisation is clearly working. The site is enjoying more than 100% year-on-year increase in organic traffic and we're currently pulling in more organic visitors than ever before. Why is Moz's score not reflecting this? Some of the pages that have seen sizeable PA drops have had their URLs changed since the last Moz update. For example, I've optimised a URL from www.mysite.com/cases-covers to www.mysite.com/phone-cases to coincide with search volumes. I've added optimised content to this page too, but the PA has dipped from 27 to 17. A 301 redirect has been correctly added, and this is evident by a PA of 17 and not zero, which is what a brand new page would have. Am I paying too much attention to Moz's scores? It's a bit disheartening to see a drop after a lot of hard work. However, I guess the only thing that really counts is an increased volume of search traffic and revenue, right? Cheers, Lewis

I REALLY need some help with Moz Reporting
Hey Moz Community, I really need someone to help me with Moz reporting. Let's say I have 10 websites on my campaign dashboard. Is there an API or settings in campaign where I can generate a Moz report that has all 10 campaigns into one high level report? Right now I can generate 1 report per 1 website and the plan is to make it more easier to digest the information and have all the information for all 10 campaigns in just 1 report. Is that even possible? Thank you in advance!

Will the MOZ API display
will the MOZ API display rank, social and page data So I can create my own dashboard? We are looking to head off the 100% not provided and need to add to our reporting program. I was hoping the MOZ API would allow us to integrate the page views per url with ranking data that the campaigns provide. We are also interested in adding the social metrics for twitter and facebook to our client facing portal. any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
