      1. Different Methodologies: Moz and SEMrush use different algorithms to calculate DR.

      2. Data Sources: Moz and SEMrush may pull data from different sources for backlink analysis.

      3. Frequency of Updates: Variations in how often Moz and SEMrush update their databases can lead to differences in DR scores.

      4. Scope of Analysis: The scope of websites analyzed by Moz and SEMrush may vary, impacting DR scores.

      5. Algorithm Changes: Updates to algorithms used by Moz or SEMrush can result in changes to DR scores.

            Discrepancies in backlink profiles between different SEO tools like Moz and SEMRush are not uncommon. Each tool may use different algorithms and sources to crawl and index backlinks, leading to variations in the reported data. Here are some steps you can take to understand and address the differences in your domain's backlink profile:

              @LucyEmma Because both Moz and SEMrush have their own criteria

                  @mcafeeonline Hi!
                  Yes, I also face that problem when Moz shows different da on my website. And when I check from Semrush, it offers a difference.

                    Moz Q&A is closing, December 12th 2024

                    moz

                    After more than 13 years, and tens of thousands of questions, we’re finally closing Moz Q&A. Whilst we’re not completely removing the content - many posts will still be possible to view - we’re locking both new posts and new replies. Why? The truth is that the conversation has moved elsewhere. Sites like Twitter, Reddit, and more recently BlueSky and LinkedIn, have largely replaced specialist forums. At the same time, the challenge of moderating a platform like this has become more difficult, and of course, we’re SEOs, and the sheer quantity of new pages generated, often by malicious actors, has its challenges in terms of what it does to the profile of our site. Forums are still an opportunity for many sites, in SEO and more broadly, but the calculus no longer works for Moz. Where can I ask my question instead? If you’re a customer or currently evaluating a free trial, you can reach out directly with questions about the product to our customer support team here. If you want to learn more about SEO, you can check our learning resources here, and we also offer the Moz Academy. If you just want to hang out, you can also still find us on X, BlueSky, or LinkedIn. Thank you We’re grateful to everyone who has contributed to Moz Q&A over the years. It’s been a blast, and we hope this isn’t the last time we’ll see you here on the Moz site.

                    Potential traffic

                    ahrefs keyword potential traffic volume moz pro

                    Hi! I am curious what is the Moz equivalent of "potential traffic" metric in Ahrefs? Is there any keyword metric I can check in Moz to receive data on potential traffic rather than only volume? Thanks in advance!

                    Hi. One of the properties in our account has been reporting zero '0' total visits for the past few weeks. The other properties aren't affected. Is there a reason for this or is this an issue on the Moz side of things. Thanks!Moz Zero Visits.PNG

                    moz authority

                    HI Moz Community, I have a little issue about my site DA. My site has more than 100 strong backlinks but still my Domain authority is less than 20 But on the other hand Ahrefs show my site Domain rating is 30+. So i have a question is how can I increase my site Domain authority?

                    What's the best way to search keywords for Youtube using Moz Keyword explorer?

                    I want to optimize my youtube channel using identified keywords, but I'm concerned that the keywords I'm identifying work well for SERP's but might not be how people search in Youtube. How do a distinguish my keywords to be targeted for Youtube?

                    GWMT / Search Analytics VS OpenSiteExplorer

                    Just had the experience of using OSE data to show what we call "linkrot" to a client -- only to find that GWMT / Search Analytics shows no such thing. Fortunately the client is an old friend and no face was lost, but it was dicey there for a bit as I have come to rely on and reference OSE again and again and again, OSE showed Domain Authority dropping by about 1/3 in the last 12 months, presumably due to old links getting broken, linking sites changing their architecture etc. And of course, ranking is tanking, as you would expect. But Google shows many more (and much more spammy looking!) backlinks. Has anyone had any experience benchmarking the 2 data sets of backlinks against each other?  Dr Pete?
                    Does one update more frequently than another? Do you trust one more than another?? If so, why?? Thanks!
