Why Google Search Console Data is different from Moz Data for my website
-
Hi All
I am running a website, I have been using Moz since Feb 2021.
Kindly go through these pics
My question is why Moz is showing 2K plus backlinks while Google search console is showing just 1253 backlinks. Why fewer links in the google search console is less? How can I increase Google search console backlinks?
Also, Moz is showing 90+ DA backlinks but those websites are not showing by the Google search console. What should I do to let google consider them?

Google Search Console and Moz use different methods to collect and analyze website data, which results in differences in reported metrics, including rankings, traffic, and backlinks.
Google Search Console provides direct insight into Google's index, while Moz aggregates data from multiple sources, resulting in discrepancies. Factors such as data freshness, sampling methods, and algorithm updates also contribute to differences in the two platforms' data for a website. -
Domain Authority (DA) scores are derived from Moz to measure the quality of a website. Moz has long been considered a pioneering SEO solutions provider. According to Google’s algorithm, some of its ranking factors are used in calculating DA.
Do not mistakenly believe that Domain Authority Score is a ranking factor on Google. Owners of high domain authority websites usually complain that their site has not grown organically. Even you can see the domain with lower data in moz but highly graphs in search console https://greecepowerballresult.com/ The DA and google rankings do not directly correlate. These claims have been categorically denied multiple times by Google and Moz. Although Moz has become a standard for determining the quality and relevance of a website, it varies by each service provider. So don't worry and keep doin good good things.

Other websites copy content and giving a link back
Hi, I've just noticed a few back links in Google Search Console, I was excited. But when I saw the backlinks, 2 other websites that had completely copied my content and then gave a backlink to my website. Is this bad for SEO and would google penalise my website for this?

Nofollow links showing up in Google Search Console
If some nofollow links are showing up in Google Search Console, does that mean they are indeed passing link juice?

Back link from site with DA of 72 to a website domain. Clicking on the link redirects to our website not the attended one.
Hi,
Link Building | | JIMBO16
I've ran a back link check and discovered a good back link to a site which then gets redirected back to my company's website. I have a feeling that an old SEO agency has purchased a small website which has a decent link back from a relevant organisation with a high Domain authority and then redirects the domain to our website to get the link juice. What are your thought on this? Is this really bad practise and possibly damaging? Thanks, Jim0 -
