Unsolved Why is Moz so bad at finding lost backlinks?
-
90% of backlinks claimed by moz to be lost are not.
-
Moz may be bad at finding lost backlinks because of its limited crawl rate, inability to access all backlinks, and difficulty identifying all backlinks as lost.
To find lost backlinks, you can use multiple backlink analysis tools, Google Search Console, a backlink monitoring tool, and manually review your backlink profile.

@Arieabseo Moz is not bad at finding these. If they are lost of don't exist its because the backlinks have not been properly performed or removed. So check with the sites where the backlink exist and check. If they are there, that website needs to ensure they backlink properly.

Moz can't crawl domain due to IP Geo redirect loop
Hi, I'm trying to crawl our domain www.salvationarmy.org.au via my Moz account and it only ever returns results for one page when it should be crawling more than 3,000 pages. In talking to support, they have said that because of the redirect we have in place it is creating a 302 loop and therefore not delivering results. Usually in this case I would obtain Moz's IP addresses and add them to the redirect settings as an exception, but Moz have said they use cloud-based services for crawling so the IPs change all the time. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this issue? At this point I've paid for a year's subscription to a product I can't use. Thanks, Mel
