@fassi34562 We are encountering a similar problem with our SEO Xidmeti . Despite generating several backlinks from various legitimate sources, the Moz tool fails to crawl or display these backlinks in its listings. However, other tools are able to recognize and show these backlinks regardless of when they were created.

Hey, this is exactly what I experience with cv formasi. During the first crawl of the campaign, the tool returned normal almost all links visible compared to GSC. Then it almost stopped working. I wonder if it is something to do with the number of pages set to crawled when you just create a campaing. From now on I always set the number of pages maximum, see if it works

Hi Bloggers123,
If you follow the directions in the thread above to create a Link Tracking List and add the specific URLs of any links you are aware of then the Moz crawler will crawl those links within a few days.

Hi, everyone. I am writing on behalf of Elseo and suffering from the same technical challenge. We are generating several backlinks from various sources (not spammy), but Moz tool does not crawl or show my backlinks on its listing. However, other tools does crawl and show no matter the date of the backing generated.

Hi Bob!
I added some information about Link Tracking Lists for fassi in this thread which I think will be helpful for you too.
Happy Link Tracking!!

Hi fassi34562!
Such great information from Robin!
The good news is, that if you already know that links to your website exist and you know where they come from, you can actually help Link Explorer to find them more quickly by adding them to a Link Tracking List!
Adding a link to the Link Tracking List will tell the Moz crawler to check the page for links to the Target URL. Your target URL can be a specific page, or you can use the domain URL. The important thing to remember if you are using a Link Tracking List to confirm existing links is to use specific page URLs in your list - this will make sure the crawler goes right to the page where the link exists. Otherwise, it may take time for the crawler to eventually get to the exact page within the site as Robin explained above
Once the link is found (and as long as the page is not blocked) you will see the icons change in your list to show that the link has been found. You can also make notes so you have a record of any important information.
Here's a Guide to using Link Tracking Lists for all kinds of SEO tasks!!
Hope that helps!

Hi there, unfortunately we can't really rely on any one tool to know all of our backlinks, even Google!
When someone links to your site, they could be doing it from the New York Times, or they could be doing it from a tiny site which they just created. The only way any tool (Google, Moz etc.) can get a list of backlinks is by continually accessing a page, finding every link on that page, going to all the linked pages, finding all the links on those pages etc.
With something like the New York Times, these tools know the site, they know to keep coming back to check every so often, so it's more likely they identify the link going to your site. With a tiny site someone has just created - it's much harder for these tools to even know the site exists, never mind know the specific page on that site which is linking to yours. Even if a tool has a massive database of the internet, there are trillions of web pages and no one database will have a record of them all.
The next best thing is for us to use as many tools as we can to get as complete a picture of the issue as we can. I often try to check;
- Moz
- Google Search Console (this will only give you the first 1K)
- AHrefs
- SEMRush
- Majestic SEO.
You'll need to dedupe the different lists but between them, they should stand a better chance of finding backlinks to your site. If they don't find anything then it's likely that the pages linking to your site are either quite out-of-the-way or they are in some way blocked from crawlers.
In terms of tracking keywords, Moz does allow you to include a keyword list which it'll give you ranking information for over time, you can also track keywords in Stat (search "getstat"), and SEMRush and AHRefs will give you ranking information too.
Hope that helps!

I also notice that not all my back-links show in the MOZ reporting. Many do, but not all. I'd like to know all of them so I can put any spamy ones in my disavow file.

Backlinks from subdomain, can it hurt ranking?
I just started doing an SEO audit and noticed I have 40,000 some odd back links from an OLD version of our site that has been moved to a subdomain. The back links are for articles that already exist on our main site. I don't think Google is picking it up as duplicate content because that site isn't being crawled anymore. Could this hurt us SEO wise? I plan on removing the site, but how long after it's been removed should those back links disappear?

Backlink level of domain authority
Hi, we are trying to build on the number of good quality links. One idea we had is to provide testimonials for a number of suppliers websites. Which would include a link from our company name back to our site. Is there a certain level of domain authority we should only do this for? For example if a supplier only has a domain authority of 11 should we not get a back link? Many Thanks
