I'm learning that SEOMOZ isn't google, but they are doing their best to see the web like Google does. I think it's still the best SEO tool out there, just have to remember to not take SEOMOZ's numbers too literally. Ultimately it's about Google ranking and as long as I don't see a big slip there, I shouldn't get too worried. Happy Friday all!
I was just starting to feel like I was getting traction and all of a sudden half of our external backlinks just disappeared! Over the past 4 months we've taken our total external links from about 2500 to 6500 and with the lastest report, we seem to have lost more than half and are now around 2100. Our domain authority has dropped accordingly too. I realize that backlinks aren't forever but what in the heck could cause you to loose over 4000 in a one month period?
