@gxpl09 Google "Best SEO expert in the world" and who ever shows up organically as #1 for that long tail keyword. then contact them and ask who trained them.

It takes time for the SE's to show all backlinks, and usually never will. There are so many factors involved. This article explains it better than I can, well its a Q &A. But basically what you are seeing is a sample of what they have: https://support.google.com/webmasters/thread/61927226/how-many-days-does-google-takes-to-index-backlinks?hl=en

@seogod123234 Moz Pro, like other SEO tools, has its own methods and algorithms for crawling and indexing backlinks. Here's an explanation of how Moz's backlink indexing works and why you might be seeing the discrepancies you mentioned:

How Moz Pro Crawls and Indexes Backlinks

1. Crawling Frequency and Depth:

   • Moz does not crawl the entire web as frequently or as deeply as search engines like Google. This means that it might not discover all the backlinks that exist.
   • High-authority sites (like those with DA 80+ you mentioned) may still not be crawled frequently if the specific pages where your backlinks exist are not high on Moz's priority list.

2. Link Discovery:

   • Moz prioritizes discovering links that are on pages it already knows about and considers important. EDU sites often fall into this category due to their high trust and authority, hence why your links from these sites are indexed more quickly.

3. Indexing Priorities:

   • Moz’s index might prioritize certain types of links. EDU sites generally have high trust, and links from these sites are considered high-quality, which could explain why Moz indexes them more reliably and quickly.

4. Link Verification and Quality:

   • Moz might have algorithms to verify the quality of links before indexing them. Links from user-generated content on high DA sites (like comments on GitHub or Pinterest) might be seen as less valuable compared to editorial links or contextual backlinks.

Reasons for Low Indexing Rate of High DA Site Links

• User-Generated Content: Links in user-generated content (e.g., comments) on high DA sites might be indexed less frequently.
• No-Follow Links: Many high DA sites apply a no-follow attribute to user-generated links, which may cause Moz to deemphasize or not index these links.
• Page Priority: Specific pages on high DA sites might not be considered important by Moz’s crawlers if they are deep in the site’s structure or receive low traffic.

How to Improve Backlink Indexing in Moz Pro

1. Submit URL for Crawling:

   • While Moz does not offer a direct way to submit URLs for crawling, you can use the Moz Link Explorer tool to analyze a URL, which might prompt Moz’s crawlers to check it.

2. Quality and Context of Backlinks:

   • Focus on acquiring backlinks that are within the main content of pages rather than in comments or user-generated sections. These are more likely to be indexed and valued by Moz.

3. Use Moz’s Link Intersect Tool:

   • This tool helps find sites that link to your competitors but not to you. Acquiring backlinks from these sites might increase the likelihood of them being indexed by Moz.

4. Diversify Backlink Sources:

   • Try to get backlinks from a variety of high-authority sites rather than relying heavily on user-generated content on a few high DA sites.

Understanding SEO Tool Limitations

• Third-Party Tools: Remember that Moz, Ahrefs, SEMrush, etc., are third-party tools with their own limitations and might not reflect real-time data as accurately as Google Search Console.
• Google Search Console: For the most accurate representation of your backlinks, use Google Search Console, as it shows the backlinks Google has discovered and indexed.

While there is no guaranteed way to force Moz to crawl specific pages, focusing on high-quality, diverse backlinks and utilizing Moz’s tools effectively can help improve the indexing rate of your backlinks.
