Facebook shared vs liked
-
Hi, looking at the "Open Site Explorer" I see :
| Times Shared on Facebook: | 12 | 25 | 7 | 8 | -- |
| Facebook Likes | 0 | 4 | 5 | 9 | -- |But what is the differencebetween Times Shared on Facebook and Facebook Likes??

Thanks Mike

Social signals can lead to a decent boost for a website. With the "downfall" of linking, many have looked to signals from social media sites as the new natural expression of a site's worth to their user base and as social proof of authority. It won't necessarily make you rank better in search results but it can be an integral part of the conversion funnel.

Thank you, I am considering putting AddThis buttons on my page https://www.addthis.com/get/sharing. So when I get their "share" buttons I get a facebook "like" button. Does this really matter in SEO performance do you think??

The difference is literally that one involves liking a page and one involves sharing a page. They are two separate functions that can be done independently of each other, i.e. I can Share your article without having to Like your website & I can Like pages on your site but not choose to share them. A Share is the use of the Share Button to share/post a page, article, etc. to a person's timeline, a friend's wall, and/or the timeline of a page that the person's account is associated with as an Admin. Whereas a Like is someone clicking a Like button associated with a page, article, etc. stating that they like/enjoy it.

Ahrefs vs Moz
Hi! I noticed the Moz DA en the Ahrefs DA are very different. Where https://www.123opzeggen.nl/ has a DA of 10 at MOZ, the DA at Ahrefs is 26. Where does this big difference come from? Do you measure in different ways? I hope you can answer this question for me. Thank you in advance!

Moz vs google data conflict?
Hi there, I am doing an SEO site audit for a client(giveaway, and here is the problem: when performing site:domain.com on google --> 13,800 pages were found When I see this number it seems to be a bit too much compare to the links i checked on integrity(link check for broken links) which gave me a result of 1291. I digged in more into the Google results and saw hundreds(maybe thousands) of pages that are blocked by robots.txt. So I am thinking, ok this is it, thousands of pages can't be crawled by the search engines. Here is the big BUT though, then I check at my moz crawl (see attachment) and no pages are blocked by the SEs, and then look at the dups, only 23 recorded?? Is Moz not crawling properly the 13,800 results that google finds or is this some magical phenomenon happening here? I am really confused here that is why I need some help here! Thank you guys!

I want a campaign that crawls just from a given category (or sub category) down to all produtcs pages. How can I do that? I am not sure if defining a folder would accomplish taht? Lets say I have category C, D and E. Sub categories on D are D1, D2, D3 and producs on D3 are D3P1, D3P2 and so on... How can I define a campaig on category D3 and get D3, D3P1, D3P2 crawled?

How to legally run an onsite competition from Facebook?
Hi Guys, I am thinking about running a competition on my website in order to drive traffic to it, however the regulations that govern competitions around FB are convoluted to say the least. I am under the impression that I can advertise the competition on FB by direct them to an external site. Does anyone have any experience with this and can guide me, so I dont burn a well established Social Profile with over 2,200 connections? Thank you for any help you can give me. Kind Regards, Craig

Why can't I add my facebook page to SEOMOZ? Also having other facebook issues.
Hi, I have no trouble adding my twitter page in SEOMOZ, but its giving me an error when I try to load my facebook page http://www.facebook.com/pages/Eugene-Computer-Geeks/226660334011653 . I also tried adding my personal facebook page which is tied to the Eugene Computer Geeks facebook page, but SEOMOZ wont accept that either. My business facebook page is tied to my personal account, and its also not showing up on the facebook search. Any idea how I can make my business show up? I wish I could just start over fresh and have my buinsess setup with it's own facebook account. Thanks.

Open Site Explorer vs. Linkscape... without mozRank passed how do you measure link value?
Hi all, Since Linkscape was retired we've been struggling without the mozRank passed data for our competitor research. However, I've read that it wasn't a particularly reliable metric to go on so my question is: what makes a link more valuable, in your opinion? I'm trying to work out the relation between Page Authority / Domain Authority / Number of Links etc., ideally to come up with some form of ranking system where we can say: Overall link value = ( (A x Page Authority) x (B x Domain Authority) x (C x Number of Links) ) / Number of Linking Domains or something like that. Is this a good way to go about it? What do you guys look at when using the OSE data? Thanks in advance for your help!

TLD vs Sub Domain in Regards to Domain Authority
I have always been under the impression that top level (or root) domains can hold different domain authority than that of a sub domain. Meaning that sub domain's and TLD can hold different ranks and strength in search engine result pages. Is this a correct or just an assumption? If so when i add a root domain and subdomain into the campaign manager i get back the same link information and domain authority? www.datalogic.com

LDA vs Farmer/Panda Update
Has anyone re-run the correlation data for webpages' LDA Score since Google's Farmer/Panda update? I still have my writers use the LDA Tool and I am curious to know if there was a significant change in correlation now that "quality content" is touted as a more important ranking factor by Google.
