Metrics from Linkscape - DJ Passed, URL mozRank Passed and funny numbers
-
Hello,
Hoping someone can help me understand the difference between the Domain Juice Passed and some interesting numbers found in the exported CSV file.
I ran the Advanced Link Intelligence Report and focusing on the Links to Domain metrics. It looks like the report is sorted by mozRank passed but next to each link we are given the DJ Passed instead. Why is that?
My confusion is compounded by the fact that when I export the CSV of this report it no longer includes the DJ Passed numbers but does show URL mozRank Passed instead.
For Example, on the web version of the Advanced Link Intelligence Report the top link is:
http://www.holdenouterwear.com/shop.php with mozRank: 5.56 mozTrust: 5.95 and DJ Passed: 4.49
In the CSV file we don't get the DJ passed but get the URL mozRank Passed of: 0.00051
Looking at the CSV file further some links have URL mozRank Passed of 4.00E-05
Anyone has a clear explanation of why DJ Passed is not in the CSV file and how the mozRank passed is calculated? And what the 4.00E-05 mean?
Thank you.

You are operating under the assumption of the random surfer model, which weights all links equally. Under the reasonable surfer model, links are weighted based on the likelihood they will get clicked. Therefore, internal links pass a whole lot of that mozRank. There is also no guarantee that all 5.56 mozRank is passed in some form or another. Each link passes a portion of it, but that doesn't mean if you add them all up you will necessarily get 5.56. That's just the most you could get.

Having a hard time making this math add up.
If we use the link from http://www.holdenouterwear.com/shop.php as an example.
It has mozRank of 5.56 and the URL mozRank passed to my site is 0.00051
So does this mean there are 10901 links on this page? Clearly there are not.

Thanks Daniel. Great explanation

I'm not sure on the DJ passed issue, but the 4.00E-05 looks like some kind of scientific notation which means 4 with 5 zero's in front of it, or 0.00004. The decimal is too long so they anotate it as 4.00E-05. If it said 4.67E-08 then that number would be 0.00000000467. Hopefully that makes sense.
How mozrank passed is calculated is based on the pagerank algorithm that says each link on a page passes juice. So if the mozrank of the page is 5.56, then you look at how many links are on the page and each one passes a portion of that 5.56.

How do I get a MozRank?
Hi all, Hoping that one of you Guru's might be able to shed a little light for me please. we launched the online arm of our gold bullion business on the 21st of February and I signed up for an account here on the 23rd of Feb. I don't have a MozRank for my site yet and I'd love to get one. The mozbar that I installed shows o linkes from 0 root domains etc. but google webmaster can see links that are inbound to my site. My questions are: Do I have to wait the 45-60 days that I believe it might take SEOmoz to give me a rank- or is there a process that I manually kick off? Is there anything other than google webmaster that I should be looking at to try and make sure that I am on the right track; I'd hate to go 45-60 days in the wrong direction before realising there is an issue. thanks in advance, YGF

Linkscape Update July 7 or 11 or both?
The Linkscape Update Calendar lists two updates in July (7th and 11th). http://apiwiki.seomoz.org/w/page/25141119/Linkscape-Schedule For some internal calendaring, it would be helpful to know which date the update will roll. And as always, thank you very much for the great tools.
