Domain Audit
-
Hi
What is the best tool out there to doing a full brand audit for company. They've created at least 15 websites and have possibly many domain names which have been ordered by different people over many years.
I need to find the quickest and best tool to do this with. Any suggestions would be great.

Used to dealing with millions of lines of data and analysing so no problem doing it manual, however if there was a tool capable of doing it then why not use the tool if it saves time.............

For best results DIM (Do It Manually!)
Joking apart I would stay away from automatic audits, they are often incorrect and can give you a pack of trouble.
I really like seoma10's answer.
People who are really good at doing audits are usually doing audits, not making "tools". In addition, the job of doing a really good audit has paths and tasks that would be difficult to program because they are different in every situation.
Most people looking for tools are looking for "free tools" and audit experts don't receive a good return by building free tools. However, if you are willing to pay for a tool, then the brain of a very experienced and knowledgeable person is the best tool.

For best results DIM (Do It Manually!)
Joking apart I would stay away from automatic audits, they are often incorrect and can give you a pack of trouble.
I would start by setting yourself out a strategy something like the following:-
- Fix coding and visual errors
- Use Moz Open Site Explorer and find which sites have the best reputation on the web (you can compare several sites in one go).
- Research all the domain names that you have, put them in a spreadsheet, rate them for brandability, reputation and if they have any current positions worth maintaining.
By the end of this you should have a good idea of the quality and how far reaching powerful brands are.
Also don't forget social media, although not directly related to SEO it will give you a good idea is to brand reputation.
Hope understood your question correctly, if not please elaborate and see what I can do to help.

I bought a 5 year old domain and has a spam score of 23%.....
A few months ago i bought a 5 year old domain and when i went to check in Moz pro the spam score, it shows its at 23%. DA is 1 everything else is 0. The spam score shows 23% but there are no links at all for this website (see image) https://imgur.com/a/3lHjLEh I don't understand, there are no links at all going to this website. I checked google search console, analytics and tried looking for any links linking to this domain and there is none. Even Moz isn't showing any links in the picture i provided above. Is this a glitch? Can i reset my spam score on this domain? Does that mean i wasted my money on this domain and now i can't rank with it? Is there something im missing here. I also checked is there are any warnings or manual actions and it clearly says "No issues detected". A few months earlier i bought a brand new domain very close to the 5 year old domain (new domain has a z instead of an s) and the spam score on that is 0 and DA is 1. Given that the 5 year old domain has a 23% spam score, does that mean i should use the other new domain instead and redirect the 5 year old domain to the new website?

Domain / Page Authority - logarithmic
SEOmoz says their Domain / Page Authority is logarithmic, meaning that lower rankings are easier to get, higher rankings harder to get. Makes sense. But does anyone know what logarithmic equation they use? I'm using the domain and page authority as one metric in amongst other metrics in my keyword analysis. I can't have some metrics linear, others exponential and the SEOmoz one logarithmic.

Domain Authority
Has anyone ever experienced a domain authority of 1, 0 links for web 2.0 websites like tumblr, wordpress, weebly, etc? I know it's normal to see a page authority of 1 if there are no links to a url or if opensite explorer hasn't been updated. Is this some kind of bug with opensite explorer?

How are our competitors getting these inbound linking domains?
I'm currently managing SEO for my company's website, and I'm getting into link building for the first time. As part of the process, I'm using Open Site Explorer to see who's linking into our competitor sites, to get a better sense of what's available to us in our particular avenue of e-commerce. However, I'm finding that our competitors are getting inbound links from high-authority sites pretty far afield from selling jewelry - census.gov, parallels.com, warnerbros.com, and others. I try clicking through to these links, but each link starts a download of a file. I've seen .f4v, .7z, and .apk files listed as inbound links to our competitor. How is this happening? Again, I'm new to link building, so there may be a simple answer here, and if so I apologize for asking. However, this seems really strange to me, and a difficult situation to confront.
