Question in regards to Comparing Metrics with MOZ tools
-
Hi all!
After using the "Compare Links Metrics" in the research tools, a few questions popped up. Particularly, in regards to what key metrics to look for when determining if a websites outbound links are trustworthy and may pass Link-juice. Basically, "if my link is put on that website, will search engines trust it"? I've copied an example below and typed a few comments next to particular metrics. Please share some insight them:
Page Authority: 48
Page MozRank: 4.94 -Is 4.94 considered OK?
Page MozTrust: 4.96 -Is 4.96 considered OK?
Internal Equity-Passing Links: 2,819
External Equity-Passing Links: 2,326 -Lower = better?
Total Equity-Passing Links: 5,145
Total Internal Links: 2,844
Total External Links: 2,383 - Lower = better?
Total Links: 5,227
Followed Linking Root Domains: 88
Total Linking Root Domains: 129
Linking C Blocks: 30
Equity-Passing Links vs
Non-Equity-Passing Links:** I am assuming that the higher the Non-equity passing links VS the Equity passing links is typically better? What would be an idea ratio?**Internal Links vs
External Links: Lower external = better? -
That's a great location but it seems like most of the info there is pretty spread out in regards to my question. I was interested in figuring out if the number of external link on a site will influence their own reputation, and how.
For example, if site A has 500 external link, and site B has 1000 - and assuming all other metrics are the same for both sites - which one should I try to pursue as far as getting an external link to my own site (i.e. which has the highest SEO value for me)?
Also, I am assuming that when a site has 500 external links, that is 500 external links going out (not coming in).

I was going to try and write about which each one means, but I would just be duplicating this whole section of Moz:
http://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority
Down the right hand side there is a link to each of the sections, with videos and far more information than I could post in the answer box here.
Hope this is useful

If I have a MOZ PRO account, do I still need Screaming Frog?
Hi, I have a MOZ PRO account which is brilliant for me. I am about to move my site from HTTP to HTTPS and was looking for a smooth way to list every page and its details so I can make sure I do the correct redirects etc.. before the switch to SSL. Do I need to get Screaming Frog, or can the tools with MOZ Pro ease my path just as well? Thanks

Why Moz Back links check tool is very Slow compared with other tools?
I've created a new website 50 days old with a vision of sharing high-quality content. I created some pages which are useful and helpful, what make other people link to my site. Early days, two weeks ago I've started checking my backlinks starting with Ahref and majestic. three days ago I decided to join Moz too and use Moz explorer. But, I discovered that Moz tool is too slow compared with other tools. Why? Starting with Ahref. They discovered more than 100 links and updating their data for my site as a new website every 6 hours as I know. Also majestic for the first time discovered six links then every two days they updating their data. Even Google discovered some of my backlinks. Specially links from high-quality sites such as Wikipedia with high-quality pages. Moz tool discovered zero of my backlinks even after subscribing. I don't think Moz need to discover websites like Wikipedia which already indexed by Moz. So, I wonder Why Moz tools are very very very slow like that? Update: (This is a question, not a discussion. So, please don't edit it) Can any Moz support answer please? Thanks.

Does Moz have anything similar to ahrefs batch analysis tool?
I am wanting to do analysis of a whole bunch of URLs at once - i know ahrefs already has a very good tool for this - but I don't really want to have to pay the $79 a month if moz has something similar? I know it has the OSE. Can I do batch analysis in this? Thanks

Open Site Explorer Question
Hello Mozers. It has been a while 🙂 OK - I run an open site explorer report, toggle over to 'Linking Domains' because I am more interested in the number of actual websites that link to my client rather than the number of links my client has (and of course what websites are linking) and although I have been doing this for years there is one little thing I am a bit confused about. The report shows (from left to right) the 'Linking Root Domain", the "Domain Authority" for the linking domain and then the 'Number of Linking Root Domains" for each 'Linking Root Domain" My question is (rather stupid, I am sure) is the number of linking root domains for each linking root domain the number of websites linking to them OR the number of websites to which they link?
