Unsolved Links to my website are wrong
-
Hi,
I have launch a new website, lorraine on october of 2021 and I have added it to a bunch a local and national directories to improme it local rankings.
But when I get the domain authority and link data from MOZ it has only ten links and no one of them is from local/national directories.
I have three questions:
- Do you know if it is normal that after 9 months DA is 1?
- Is there any problem with local/national directory links?
- I dont like buy links like others do but it seems the only way to improve domain authority and rankings.
-
- Fluctuations in domain authority are common, this might be the effect of the bad links got from the directories.
- Try to get quality links from the local directories.
- You can always build organic do-follow links through guest posting it helps in building your Domain authority.
If you're willing to do guest posting, I would say use Postifluence. It will make your guest posting work easier by finding the top ranking guest posting sites and it's quite an affordable tool.

@nkgrg said in Links to my website are wrong:
inurl:edu/forum/*register
Very interesting...
I have this one link directory: https://www.qdq.com/lorraine-1196639
But If I google it:
site:qdq.com inurl:lorraineIt seems to not been indexed.
How can I index this page If it isnt of my property?
Thanks

@agnieszka4n Linked from where?
-
I think it is correct, you have a PA of 16 on your domain with these links, then the DA will increase more slowly no doubt.

@lorraine-es
Hi Lorraine,
I was there where you are right now.
But now I have gone far away by using some methods- try to submit your sites to high ranking directories, forums etc.
- Google this and submit your site manually.
inurl:edu/forum/*register
Hope it helps.

@lorraine-es have you linked directories?

Is it worth buying an entry on Wikipedia-type sites?
Recently I've come across a few websites offering (for a fee) to research, write and publish an entry on the likes of Wikipedia, Citizendium or Wikitia - I thought this might be helpful when it comes to marketing and link building for a brand or individual. Purchasing guest blog posts is a standard way to obtain a high domain authority in-context backlink, but I wondered if purchasing an entry on one of these human edited encyclopedias would be as effective, better or not worth the money? It costs quite a bit more than guest posting and blog outreach, but on the other hand they are authoritative websites that also include backlinks. Any thoughts would be most welcome.

slug Link redirect to subdomain?
Hi !
Link Building | | Leviiii
Im Levi new here and new in the world of SEO, please dont judge if my questions are silly. Back on the days when the site was built we thought it is a good ideea to have subdomains that together with the domain name represent our main keywords.
ex. https://stansted.tonorwich.uk, https://heathrow.tonorwich.uk, https://luton.tonorwich.uk, https://gatwick.tonorwich.uk. There is content on this subdomains, would it make any difference from SEO perspective if we create slugs that redirect to these subdomains? for example creating https://tonorwich.uk/taxi-minibus-vip-tesla-norwich-to-stansted that redirects to https://stansted.tonorwich.uk ? Or better create these slugs with slightly different content?
Any ideeas would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!0 -

How does spammy linked site have zero spam score?
I came across a law firm site with hundreds of horrible spam links to it. Of the 3330 links, all but 231 links have anchor text that has to do with "jordan 11s for sale". I'm trying to see how useful the moz spam score is, but clearly it's not reliable if this site has a score of zero. Many of the obviously spammy sites linking to it also have low to zero spam scores, although there are plenty in the 5-10 range. (see attached image). I also noticed that many sites were legit sites, but if you look at the source code, there's tons of hidden spam links in the code (e.g., www.chickasawgardens.net) Why would this site have a zero spam score? If you're curious, put it into open site explorer and have a look. It's a law firm based in Pennsylvania, most anchor text has to do with jordan sneakers and most links are foreign: penn-criminallawyers.com Is the spam score too lenient? Is the moz tool unable to find spam links coming from legitimate sites with hidden spam links? DrokMbP

A simple count (with list if possible) of the external and internal links on a website
Dear Moz Community, I am trying to find a way to easily analyse a website (http://uk.chm-cbd.net) to determine the number of internal and external hyperlinks throughout the (roughly) 490 webpages within the site. It would also be extremely helpful to have a list of all the links with their url. Does anyone know of a tool, methodology to do this? If it requires a lot of programming then that does not help me very much as I am not very computer literate!! So a software to download or an online service would be very helpful. Open Site Explorer seems to be limited, such that I would have to do an analysis on each page within the website. BUT, if anyone knows how I can do using OSE, then please tell me. Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help Hugh
