If we put the disavow links in google, does MOZ crawl the same links?
-
I have put bad or spam links in disavow file, but still showing in MOZ backlinks. So, I want to know that Why is MOZ not removing the spam links from their system?

@eli-myers Hello, I have a question about disavow links.
We have some backlinks which have high spam scores, we gave google for disavowing, but we don't know when Moz will see that we gave google those links to disavow them.

Hi Eli,
Any update on this feature? It's been over a year now since your post above. Has this moved on to the development roadmap now?
Thanks

Hi Eli Myers,
Thanks for sharing that information! Just one more question - Does this mean that spam scores are also not updated since the links are still showing in Moz? What are the appropriate steps to take to lower spam scores and as a result, improve DA?
-
Hi Eli Myers,
thank for sharing info. but how can I increase DA and PA. and how can I remove that spam backlinks permanently
-
Thanks Eli
for response on the question, actually we do not know who is making bad links for our website. He is putting our website links on spamy websites, and MOZ is crawling and showing our website is spamy too. We have already put that links in disavow. But Still we are unable to remove that links or unable to contact with spamy websites and they are also not replying on our emails too.
Hope ! you will also create a new best strategy same as google disavow tool.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for contacting us!
We unfortunately will not detect that a link has been disavowed, this isn’t something we were able to include in the old or new DA models. Since disavowing links doesn't actually remove a link, it just signals to Google that the links isn't important, our crawler will continue to find the link. We are working on having something like that built into Link Explorer, where if you disavow a link in Google, you can also mark it as disavowed in Moz, but I’m afraid that option isn't available yet.
Links will not drop out of the Moz index unless the links are actually removed and no longer link to you, or if we’re unable to crawl the page the link is on.
We’ll continue to improve our Domain Authority and Page Authority algorithms and strengthen our link index as the search landscape changes. In terms of future updates, we anticipate this new DA model being quite stable over time. We will keep track of possible changes that we might need to make and we’ll be sure to keep you updated.
I hope this helps but please let us know if there's more we can help to clarify!
Eli

Limit MOZ crawl rate on Shopify or when you don't have access to robots.txt
Hello. I'm wondering if there is a way to control the crawl rate of MOZ on our site. It is hosted on Shopify which does not allow any kind of control over the robots.txt file to add a rule like this: User-Agent: rogerbot Crawl-Delay: 5 Due to this, we get a lot of 430 error codes -mainly on our products- and this certainly would prevent MOZ from getting the full picture of our shop. Can we rely on MOZ's data when critical pages are not being crawled due to 430 errors? Is there any alternative to fix this? Thanks

Moz says "Title Too Long", Yoast says title is the perfect length. Who's right?
For a bunch of my pages, the MOZ Crawl Report says "Title Too Long". Yoast on my site tells me that the titles are the correct length. How can these two things be at odds with each other? Which one is right?

Moz Bar doesn't show any data and keeps asking me to log in when actually I'm logged in.
Hi all, I've been using Moz Bar for years. It ran well until about three weeks ago. It suddenly failed to show the DA and PA of sites that I open after I log in. And it keeps asking me to log in when I did. I tried to uninstall the Mozbar extension and reinstalled it several times. Nothing worked. I also tried to uninstall Chrome and clear the cookies, still, nothing changed. Did anyone experience this? How do you solve it and make it run on the track? Any information will be appreciated.

Are we actually getting accurate data on keyword volumes from Moz (or other sources)?
I have a client who does patio furniture repair and restoration. When performing keyword research in Moz for terms like "patio furniture repair" I see that only 11-50 people in the entire US are searching for this term according to the Moz data. However, running an Adwords campaign currently and our top keyword is the phrase match for "patio furniture repair" which has generated over 100 clicks in just a couple of months in ONE county. Is there a better way to research more accurate results on search volume estimates? This makes organic SEO and keyword targeting hard! Thanks, Ricky

Does "Disallow: /xmlrpc.php" in robots.txt affect moz tools ability to fetch DA?
Just checked a website for Domain Authority using Moz' tool, however it returned 1 for DA, which should be unlikely. I have been trying to find the problem and found "Disallow: /xmlrpc.php" in robots.txt. Could this affect Moz' tools ability to get the required data?
