SEOmoz metrics vs Panda Algorithm
-
Hey SEOmoz guys,
My question is simple.
Have you re-test your metrics (DA, PA, mR etc) correlation with SERPs in google panda update?
are they still valid in determining authority, trust and popularity in panda update?
are they still usefull?
Thanks!

Hi Yudhis,
With every update of our metrics, which is almost monthly, we adjust them to try and match what we are seeing in the SERPs. As always there are other factors that we might not be aware of that could effect things in the SERP you are looking at but we do readjust things with every update.

Hi Tyler,
Thanks for your reply. So i would like to change my question, how do you think about this metric in panda update?
IMHO, I notice that this metric is not really working anymore or they have less correlation with SERPs today.
The content farmer sites have great seomoz metric score, but they lose their keyword.
So do my website, yesterday when google panda rolled out world wide, i lose 60% my UV, and my long tail keyword drop from page 1 to page 3 or 4.
My metric was not too bad, i have DA 53, mR 6.10 dan mT 6.20.
My competitor SERPs who has less metric score than mine still on page 1.
So i conclude that this metric has less correlation in determining website quality in relation with google's high quality sites algorithm http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2011/04/high-quality-sites-algorithm-goes.html
Thats only my opinion. CMIIW.
Please share your opinion about this metric in panda algorithm..
Thanks in advance!

SEOmoz staff and associates do monitor the Q&A and often respond. I don't know the answer to this question, but I'll get someone who does know the answer to come in and contribute, as I'm sure others would like to know the answer. If you sent a tweet to @seomoz they're also likely to respond there.

Percentage of good links vs. bad
Hi Does anyone know the best way of determining good links from bad links using the SEO Moz tools? I bought some directory links to two or three pages on my site a few years back. The were all very obviously spammy because of the anchor text and I didn't have a high enough ratio of good links to counteract them. I read somewhere that if more than 10% of the links to a page have the same (or similar) anchor text, it's obvious that you're on the bad list.

Sharing/Transferring SEOMOZ campaigns
What happens when you are no longer working on a campaign, and your client needs the campaign history? I don't pay for my account, my employer does. If I ever have to move on what should I do with the account? I would want to keep my seomoz profile and Q&A history. But the campaigns belong to my employer so I would have to change all of the profile settings into his name… Is there a protocol for this kind of situation?

What period of time do OSE social media metrics represent?
When one hovers over the social media metrics in Open Site Explorer the popups say that the numbers represent the total number of times the URL has been posted, liked, tweeted or +1'd. Those numbers are [appear to be] more dynamic than the data in OSE's other reports and seem to get a fresh analysis each time the URL is entered. So I'm wondering what period of time is it counting in it's "total number of times" determination? If I'd like to track the data to get an idea of, say, total number of Facebook Shares for a one month period, how often should I check the numbers?

SEOmoz Report: Competitive Domain Analysis
Hi there, According to SEOmoz Dashboard's Competitive Domain Analysis, the 'Total Links' for our domain shot up (more than quatripled) in the last few weeks. We haven't really done much link building in over 6 months so not sure how to explain this. Did SEOmoz make updates to their bots? Could it be that the bots are finding all these links only now? We've been using SEOmoz reporting for almost a year now, and I've never seen this before. Some insight / explanation for this would be great. Thanks in advance,

How seomoz sets the country for google to monitor my rankings?
In some of my campaign settings I use specific country for search engine (e.g. "Google Slovakia"). Some times I check the rankings manually too. My process for this: 1. Open a new Chrome incognito window (be sure that that's the only open incognito window) 2. go to google.sk, type in the keyword 3. at the bottom of the page select advanced search, select language: slovak, resubmit the query That's it. With my process, the monitored keywords are not there were seomoz reports them. So the question: with what settings (domain, language anything else) seomoz is tracking the rankings in country specific search engines?

Is the SEOMOZ rank checker accounting for the mega sitelinks?
Just curious if the SEOMOZ rank checker accounts for the mega sitelinks? Are this counted as separate listings (which would in effect make it report a lower serp position) or are they bundled up with the first result and considered as #1 spot? Thanks
