Critical Problem About MOZ Trust
-
Hello Guys,
I have a critical Problem in my website. My website has no MOZ Trust! and I don't know how to increase it. I get a link from root of websites that has MOZ Trust +2. but nothing!!
-
Hi Hamid!
Just making sure I understand—all of the links point to https, and the site currently uses https? So, really, the links are accurate?
-
I just check again my backlinks and found that, I have several links from trusted website (moztrust more than 2 or 3)
but all of links point to https://mydomain.com and I've redirected all version of root to https.
maybe I must to change backlink to http version
Is it reason of 0 trust?

Hi Hamid
This could potentially be because of Moz's delay in updating their API.
**I would read the following: **
- Moz Health - http://health.moz.com
- Rand's Mozscape update - http://moz.com/community/q/what-s-the-story-on-mozscape-updates
- MozTrust - https://moz.com/learn/seo/moztrust
Going forward, when it comes to links, ask the following questions:
- Does this link help my website?
- Is this link relevant to my website?
- Would I trust this site (that's linking to me) if I landed on it?
- Is the website or content in which I am being linked from topically relevant to my website?
- If you check metrics - does anything about the metrics (domain authority, page authority,Majestic, SEMRush traffic/ranking data, etc) make me feel uneasy?
All of these resources and questions are you friends and will definitely help you going forward, influencung your MozTrust.
Hope this helps - let me know if you have anymore questions - good luck!

Ongoing problems with Panda
Hey all, I’ve been following Moz Q&A for quite a few years. As we now are fighting with some huge problems, I think it is time to write my first post. Our French website http://bit.ly/1l0efCC has been struggling with the Google’s Pinguin and Panda algos for years now. At last we were hit by Panda on May this year. Over the last weeks we made several changes, both onpage and offpage. Unfortunately none of this has shown any impact yet. I therefor would be very grateful for any help you can provide. A recommendation for a good agency with much experience in SEO on the French market would also be very helpful. Our onpage problems and what we did so far: Overoptimization: During our analysis we realized that our site is strongly overoptimized. We therefor: Altered the titles and descriptions of all seo pages to make them more unique and less stuffed with keywords Changed the urls of our landing pages Changed our internal anchor texts Content quality: Some of our landing pages contain only little unique content and the text quality is low. To improve our content quality, we Made new, fresh, longer and much better texts for a few hundred pages We set up additional landing pages for relevant keywords with unique content We moved our blog from a subdomain to a folder Irrelevant content: Our system creates many pages with irrelevant content. To reduce the irrelevant pages indexed by Google, we aggregated our customer feedback pages and set up canonicals on thousands of pages for single customer feedbacks that refer to the aggregated pages. What we did offpage: We invested weeks to analyze each and every backlink to our site and in the end we had to remove a huge amount of these links. All this doesn’t seem to be enough though. There are some other things we are working on right now, but we are running out of ideas: We want to gather all pages (that can be indexed) and compare them to the pages that have had organic traffic in the past 3 month at all, to identify more useless pages. We then will remove, deindex or revise them. We are still doing content improvements on our existing pages The structure of our rendered site is different to the source text structure. We placed the most seo relevant parts of the page on top in the source code and then moved them around on the rendered page via css. Do you think this might give a spam signal to Google? We try to improve our design. But as we need to do a bunch of A/B tests before we can relaunch our site, this will take some time. We will change our internal link structure to have less links on every page and have a stronger thematically connection between them. I’m looking forward for your tips and ideas! Regards, Sandra

Why Moz OSE, Ahrefs, Majestic and so on, don't change their user agent while crawling?
Some blackhat websites, PBNs and other "cheaters" are using various methods to effectively block third party backlink checker bots (OSE, Ahrefs, Majestic...) : robot.txt, IP and such. A simple solution for those bots would be to mimic Google by using its user agent string for example.

Or if not legally permitted (which I doubt) use some kind of randomness in user agent strings, urls, and IPs in order to prevent blocking. This should not be a big deal IMHO, am I missing something obvious ?0 -
Main keyword problem
Hello Since the latest Google update our main keyword has been dropping. We employed a SEO company about 6 weeks ago and since then the keyword has dropped a couple of pages further on Google. We have been using the Remove'em site to check our backlinks and a blog this SEO company have done has appeared on the list. The DA is good but the PA is low. In the blog they have linked the exact keyword to our site homepage. Do you think the blogs the SEO company are doing will be causing us more problems? Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks

Link Placement and Trust
Hey all I am looking at a new SEO campaign and am just starting to have a look at the competition and their links. This is a client in the website design industry who operates in a given city in the UK. Taking a quick look, the competition seems well established and there is plenty of companies ranking on the first page for all of the key terms. When I start to dig a little deeper though it gets a little more interesting and this maybe relatively unique to this industry but I think it also applies to spam links and any company that supplies white label website based services. Basically, the competition have lots of links. I have reviewed the top 10 competing sites across various terms and there is no shortage of links and lots of anchor text variations. Here is the stats from open site explorer for the one site that commonly comes up again and again. Page Level 61 - Page Authority 6.78 - mozRank 6.13 - mozTrust 30,144 - Total Links 30,064 - External Followed Links 33 - Internal Followed Links 325 - Linking Root Domains Domain Level 53 - Domain Authority 5.13 - Domain mozRank 5.10 - Domain mozTrust 47,969 - Total Links 44,788 - External Followed Links So, this gives us lots of nice metrics and the new deep analysis tool in keyword research easily allows us to get some more data on what exactly is driving the ranking of this site and the others who all rank in a similar way. Link Quality This is where it gets a bit more interesting and this applies to all the sites in the first ten results for the various keywords we are interested in (general keywords for the homepage at this stage). The links are primarily domain wide and in the footer. They are things like: website designed by x

(you get the picture) Quality vs Quantity So, whilst the competitors have lots of links, from a reasonable number of sites, they are pretty much all site wide footer links. This is fairly clear when we look at total links 30,000 from only 300 sites. My thinking here is that the quality of these links is not that great: poorly positioned on the page domain wide narrow anchor text and in some cases no 'click to visit' type links Content These sites are pretty much all dull as hell. Service pages, clients, jobs done, maybe a case study but really, nothing I would really class as interesting (hence only links from their clients sites hey). So, my question is Has anyone built a campaign with quality vs quantity? Do you have any tips, experience or feedback? Our strategy will be built around great content, promotion of that content and much more (not explored that) but at the foundation it will be a content and promotion strategy. Really, if I break it down, I am looking at the above as 300 links, from the footers of various sites. If we were to get 300 links from quality sources and then bulk it out with some similar footer style links from the clients clients (they are not 100% keen on this so we may not go that route yet) then... these established big boys really should not be too difficult to topple in my mind given enough time, content and effort. What are your thoughts people? Anyone conducted a quality vs quantity campaign like this? Any feedback? Cheers
Marcus P.S. SEOMoz - is there any chance that a link trust or quality metric could be built into the tools at some point in the future as sheer volume, is not always the best indicator and as times goes on I would imagine that to be even more true.0
