Inbound links not found in Moz Pro(though they exist)
-
These sites have many inbound links but Moz Pro finds no such links. I also used SimilarWebPro Trial to confirm the existing of such links. (these sites have IP block so it requires an VPN to access with Japan IP)
Could anyone figure out why Moz can't find those links to those sites? Any tricks in place to hide those links from SeoMoz?
If I pay to upgrade SimilarWebPro but Id rather stay with SeoMoz Pro.
thanks in advance.

Hey there! Tawny from Moz's Help Team here.
I think the reason you're not able to find inbound links for those sites is just what you mentioned: you need a VPN to be able to access the sites with a Japan IP address. Our tools won't be able to get around that IP block, so we won't be able to find links pointing back to those sites. Sorry about that!If you have any more questions we can help with, feel free to send us a note at help@moz.com and we'll do our best to answer all your questions.

Moz Pro OSE is great, but if you are doing an in-depth inbound link analysis, it is a good idea to cross-reference with Ahrefs, Majestic SEO, and/or SEMrush as well. Usually these tools will show different numbers for unique domains and total backlinks. This is of course not taking into account the IP block you mentioned above.

I think you answered your own question: "these sites have IP block so it requires an VPN to access with Japan IP"

Spam links and Domain Authority
I have a site that I know was Domain Authority 35 but now Domain Authority 25 after someone sent a load of spam links to it, how can this be correct and how can I change it? Is it worth doing a disavow and will moz take that into account?

If for few links the spam score is not discovered, then what is the possibility of risks for those links?
For one of the links, I was checking the domain authority and spam score for which the domain authority was 65 and spam score was not discovered. In such links how do I assume or what are the chances of risks with these links?

Just Discovered Links not appearing in main index
Hi Around October, November (and ongoing since then) we had some links appear in the "just discovered" index of OSE, and yet they've never made it into the main list of domains linking to the website. We have amassed quite a few links from various domains that seem to get picked up in "Just Discovered", but not by the standard list of links to our site Is there any reason for this?
