Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Anyone? ...anything?

I was just thinking... wouldn't the best types of backlinks for any small local business be from "their own competitors" ? Weird, I know... but it would NOT get any more relevant than that.

I mean wouldn't an Italian restaurant in New York gain credibility and higher ranks on SE's if "other" 'Italian restaurants in New York' linked back to them?

Problem... yeap! It would be really hard to convince your "competition" to link back to ya! no matter how good your content piece is! Thoughts?

Is there a way in my MOZ to compare how we rank against some of our competitors for "specific" keywords?

I know in OSE I can perform a Link Metric comparison... but I want to actually do the same, but listing "keywords".

Thank you

Hi everyone, is there a way (tools) to see the "history" of any given website in terms of Page or Domain Authority?

Like if I went to Alexa and typed in www.angieslist.com it tells me the site ranks #**2,691 **Globally and #670 in the USA. But, is there a way to see how the rank has gone up over time, or where it was a year, two or more ago?

Thanks

Thank you for your response, but the link would "have to be" a follow. I guess this isn't possible. Thank you!

So wait, are you saying that it is possible? so you could allow Google to crawl the links but not other crawlers like Moz, and other SEO tools?...

Don't miss interpret this... I DON'T mean hidden backlinks that you would stick on a page using html/css.

What I am trying to figure out is if it's possible to create backlinks from sites that aren't visible by crawlers or SEO tools like Moz?... Does that make sense?

Another words, let's say I place a visible/genuine/follow backlink to any external website from my blog. Is there a way to keep crawlers like Moz or other SEO tools from "seeing it"?

Thank you both for the responses... I guess it was just a matter of time in my case. It looks like the keywords crawl/report comes in a few hours "after" the initial crawl email from Moz... not sure why, but about 15 minutes after I posted this question, I received the email titled "New Rankings and On-Page Reports Ready" that included the keyword rankings!

Thanks again

Thanks got it!

This is the second time I have this issue... I get an email from Moz saying my report is done... but I have NO clue how to find it under my account, and there is no link on the email

Please help.
