Has anyone noticed no change is MOzRank since February?
-
When using Open Site Explorer, two of my clients have experienced no change in MozRank since February, but nothing has changed/stopped in their link building/optimisation programme. Has anyone else experienced a similar 'pause' - can anyone explain?
-
We did not have an update between February 27th and yesterday. If you run reports now, you should see an update for most metrics (besides anchor text). We have a blog post about the latest update at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/mozscape-update-our-largest-index-yet-159-billion-urls
-
Be sure to check out opensiteexplorer.com, and not just the SEOmoz site...at the moment (because the update was yesterday), opensiteexplorer.com has more fresh info...for whatever reason the SEOmoz site lags behind.

We have noticed this as well. Alexa.com shows a good number of backlinks if you'd like to try them out during the down time. It's free.

What happens to your domain authority if you are forced to change your website name?
Out of curiosity if for legal reason you or a client were forced to change their domain name, what happens to all of your domain authority once you lose the old domain? While you still own the domain you can easily redirect any old links to your new website, but what happens if you no longer own that domain and someone else purchases it? Do they steal all of your domain authority? Or is it possible to keep those old links pointing toward your website?

Domain Authority and Page Authority down - Change of Server
Dear All, Today I noticed that our page authority and domain authority is down, and the number of linking domains is also down. We do not have too many linking domains to our site, but at least one blogger link to us, with a very nice article about our site (since some months ago) and this link does not appear in the site explorer (follow link). This blog is well indexed by google, but impossible to see using open site explorer for some reason unknown to me; and two pages we helped, and they link also to us (follow links): their links appear in the webmaster tools, but not in the site explorer. Neither the blog nor those two pages were in the site explorer before, the links that were removed are from other sources (SEO analisys pages, automatic generated when I run a test by them, so I supossed not high quality links at all, not content related, we don't miss them). Our site was partially down for 1 1/2 day this week due change of server, from a shared hosting to a VPS. Now all pages are up again, and we are improving everything, working really hard (almost no sleep at all in two days). Could it also have something to do with the lower domain authority? How bad penalized google the time down of a domain? How long will we feel the effects of that? Listing published in our site are ranking exactly as before, but I am afraid this could change in the near future. Since the end of December (not directly related to my question), we do not have this nice snipped showing the main pages of our site, when we writte the exact domain name in google. At the time, we did not any change, and this did not affect the listings ranking (they even improved in some cases); we rank better for the main keyword, so the snipped changed, without other problems. So, the questions: Have made site explorer any change in the last days, to discard low quality links? Could be the lower domain authority related to the down time of our site? How long can be felt the effects of the down time in google results? Is it something that can be felt forever? =( Do you have any idea why google decides in some cases to remove the site links in the snipped? General question, I know it is not possible to answer it for any specific domain without looking at it. We would like to have those links again. Is there something we can do in order site explorer visit that blog I mentioned? I will try to crawl it using the dashboard to see what happen. Many thanks for your help! Daniel

Changing url from non www to www.
basically I have realised i have more page authority and links going to www.onestopmuscle.co.uk instead of onestopmuscle.co.uk. I use wordpress and have no clue how to make sure onestopmuscle.co.uk redirects to www. version. anyone have any ideas? I don't want to mess about with files or i'll most likely make the blog into a disaster.

Would anyone reccomend hiring an outside company for social bookmarking?
I hired http://www.manualsocialbookmarking.com/ to take care of social bookmarking for one of my clients. I am finally starting to see the links created from this with my keyword as the anchor text in SEO Moz. I know that they are not "great" links, but my keyword is doing very well (fluctuating between #1 and #2 on Google). I don't feel like hiring this company hurt my SEO, but I am scared to do i for any of my other clients (especially because of the penguin update). Does anyone have any thoughts? Is it work the risk to hire them again and get some links for my other clients?

Weird change in amount of links
We just went from 50.000 external followed links to more than 150.000 ext followed links within a week. At the same time we went from just below 200.000 total links (internal/external) to more than 650.000 links and linking root domains dropped from around 750 to below 500. We don't do linkbuilding. We don't use a seo-agency. We do all stuff on our own. So why this major change and what impact will it have?
