Question in regards to Comparing Metrics with MOZ tools
-
Hi all!
After using the "Compare Links Metrics" in the research tools, a few questions popped up. Particularly, in regards to what key metrics to look for when determining if a websites outbound links are trustworthy and may pass Link-juice. Basically, "if my link is put on that website, will search engines trust it"? I've copied an example below and typed a few comments next to particular metrics. Please share some insight them:
Page Authority: 48
Page MozRank: 4.94 -Is 4.94 considered OK?
Page MozTrust: 4.96 -Is 4.96 considered OK?
Internal Equity-Passing Links: 2,819
External Equity-Passing Links: 2,326 -Lower = better?
Total Equity-Passing Links: 5,145
Total Internal Links: 2,844
Total External Links: 2,383 - Lower = better?
Total Links: 5,227
Followed Linking Root Domains: 88
Total Linking Root Domains: 129
Linking C Blocks: 30
Equity-Passing Links vs
Non-Equity-Passing Links:** I am assuming that the higher the Non-equity passing links VS the Equity passing links is typically better? What would be an idea ratio?**Internal Links vs
External Links: Lower external = better? -
That's a great location but it seems like most of the info there is pretty spread out in regards to my question. I was interested in figuring out if the number of external link on a site will influence their own reputation, and how.
For example, if site A has 500 external link, and site B has 1000 - and assuming all other metrics are the same for both sites - which one should I try to pursue as far as getting an external link to my own site (i.e. which has the highest SEO value for me)?
Also, I am assuming that when a site has 500 external links, that is 500 external links going out (not coming in).

I was going to try and write about which each one means, but I would just be duplicating this whole section of Moz:
http://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority
Down the right hand side there is a link to each of the sections, with videos and far more information than I could post in the answer box here.
Hope this is useful

Open Site Explorer Question
Hello Mozers. It has been a while 🙂 OK - I run an open site explorer report, toggle over to 'Linking Domains' because I am more interested in the number of actual websites that link to my client rather than the number of links my client has (and of course what websites are linking) and although I have been doing this for years there is one little thing I am a bit confused about. The report shows (from left to right) the 'Linking Root Domain", the "Domain Authority" for the linking domain and then the 'Number of Linking Root Domains" for each 'Linking Root Domain" My question is (rather stupid, I am sure) is the number of linking root domains for each linking root domain the number of websites linking to them OR the number of websites to which they link?
