First Mozscape index of the year is live
-
I'm happy to announce, the first index of the year is out. We did have a smaller count of subdomains, but correlations are generally up and coverage of what's in Google looks better, too. We're giving that one a high five!
We've (hopefully) removed a lot of foreign and spam subdomains, which you might see reflected in your spam links section. (another woot!)
Here are some details about this index release:
- 145,549,223,632 (145 billion) URLs
- 1,356,731,650 (1 billion) subdomains
- 200,255,095 (200 million) root domains
- 1,165,625,349,576 (1.1 Trillion) links
- Followed vs nofollowed links
- 3.17% of all links found were nofollowed
- 63.49% of nofollowed links are internal
- 36.51% are external
- Rel canonical: 26.50% of all pages employ the rel=canonical tag
- The average page has 89 links on it
- 72 internal links on average
- 17 external links on average
Thanks!

Real case... almost 10 years ago SEO manager in some company was flying to their HQ just to explain why their PR was dropped from 6 to 5. C-level execs wasn't happy about that.
Now fun part - impressions, CTR and visits was increased during that update.

Great to post this at the top of the Q&A - noticed the first questions appearing today - probably many more to follow (hopefully fellow Moz'ers will read this post before posting the question).

/index.php causing a few issues
Hey Mozzers, Our site uses magento. Pages within the site (not categories or products) are set to display as www.domain.co.uk/page-url/ The hta access is set to redirect all version such as www.domain.co.uk/page-url to a url ending in a / However in google analytics and in moz landing page tracker these urls are being represented by www.domain.co.uk/page-url/index.php When visiting www.domain.co.uk/page-url/index.php a 404 is displayed. I know that by default when directed to a directory it automatically finds and displays the index file. So i understand why this is happening to some degree. However, when manually visiting this link does not exist. This poses a problem when trying to view the landing pages information in moz pro. I have 20 keywords being tracked in relation to www.domain.co.uk/page-url/ but because moz is recording it as www.domain.co.uk/page-url/index.php the keywords are unrelated so not showing information in relation to the page. Any ideas?

Mozscape API - Keyword Rankings?
Hi, I'm using the free access to the Mozscape API and while I'm still a novice about what data the Mozscape API can pull I can't seem to figure how to pull the keyword rankings for my campaigns. I reviewed https://moz.com/help/guides/moz-api/mozscape/api-reference/url-metrics but can't seem to find what value I need to call. Can someone guide me in the right direction or is this something only the paid version has access to?

What happens if I go over my Mozscape api free limits?
Hello,
API | | FPK
I just started using the free version of Mozscape and I fully understand there are limits and charges under this category. However to avoid any costly surprises, I like to know:
What happens when I get near my usage limit?
What happens when I just hit the limit?
What happens when I past the limit? Along with my questions, Is there any alert systems to let me know when I get to the range of said limit, like an email?0 -
Still not got any index update data.
Is anyone finding that they haven't got the results of the update yet? I have tried some competitors and they are not updated either.

Lost many links and keyword ranks since moz index update
Hi All, I came back from work today from a week off to find my site has gone from 681 external inbound links to 202. With this my domain authority, moz trust and moz rank have all also taken a slip. Compounding this, I am seeing a slip most of my keywords rankings. If i try to use the open site explorer to explore my links and see what going on i get the message It looks like we haven't discovered link data for this site or URL. If i check the just discovered links like it suggests I get It looks like there's no Just-Discovered Links data for this URL yet. I know these features worked before the index as i used them. Is this all attributable to the moz index issues that have been noted or could something have happened to my site? Since i started 2 months ago I have made many changes including... Updating the site map that was 4 years out of date and included 400 broken urls Removed blank pages and other useless webpages on the site that contained no content (from the previous administrator) Edited a few pages content from keyword spammy stuff to nicely written and relevant content Fixed url rewrites that made loops and un-accessible product pages All these changes should be for the better but the latest readings have me a little worried. Thanks.

Suggestion - Should OSE include "citation links" within its index?
This is really a suggestion (and debate to see if people agree with me), with regard to including "citation links" within Moz tools, by default, as just another type of link NOTE: when I am talking about "citation links" I am talking about a link that is not wrapped in a link tag and is therefore non clickable, eg moz.com Obviously Moz have released the mentions tool, which is great, and also FWE which is also great. However, it would seem to me that they are missing a trick in that "citation links" don't feature in the main link index at all. We know that Google as a minimum uses them as an indicator to crawl a page ( http://ignitevisibility.com/google-confirms-url-citations-can-help-pages-get-indexed/ ), and also that they don't pass page rank - HOWEVER, you would assume that google does use then as part of their alogrithm in some manner as they do nofollow links. It would seem to me that a "Citation Link" could (possibly) be deemed more important than a no follow link in Googles alogrithm, as a "no follow" link is a clear indication by the site owner that they don't fully trust the link, but a citation link would neither indicate trust or non trust. So - my request is to get "citation links" into the main link index (and the Just Discovered index for that matter). Would others agree??
