Why Google Search Console Data is different from Moz Data for my website
-
Hi All
I am running a website, I have been using Moz since Feb 2021.
Kindly go through these pics
My question is why Moz is showing 2K plus backlinks while Google search console is showing just 1253 backlinks. Why fewer links in the google search console is less? How can I increase Google search console backlinks?
Also, Moz is showing 90+ DA backlinks but those websites are not showing by the Google search console. What should I do to let google consider them?

Google Search Console and Moz use different methods to collect and analyze website data, which results in differences in reported metrics, including rankings, traffic, and backlinks.
Google Search Console provides direct insight into Google's index, while Moz aggregates data from multiple sources, resulting in discrepancies. Factors such as data freshness, sampling methods, and algorithm updates also contribute to differences in the two platforms' data for a website. -
Domain Authority (DA) scores are derived from Moz to measure the quality of a website. Moz has long been considered a pioneering SEO solutions provider. According to Google’s algorithm, some of its ranking factors are used in calculating DA.
Do not mistakenly believe that Domain Authority Score is a ranking factor on Google. Owners of high domain authority websites usually complain that their site has not grown organically. Even you can see the domain with lower data in moz but highly graphs in search console https://greecepowerballresult.com/ The DA and google rankings do not directly correlate. These claims have been categorically denied multiple times by Google and Moz. Although Moz has become a standard for determining the quality and relevance of a website, it varies by each service provider. So don't worry and keep doin good good things.

Why MOZ just index some of the links?
hello everyone i've been using moz pro for a while and found a lot of backlink oppertunites as checking my competitor's backlink profile.
Link Building | | seogod123234
i'm doing the same way as my competitors but moz does not see and index lots of them, maybe just index 10% of them. though my backlinks are commenly from sites with +80 and +90 DA like Github, Pinterest, Tripadvisor and .... and the strange point is that 10% are almost from EDU sites with high DA. i go to EDU sites and place a comment and in lots of case, MOZ index them in just 2-3 days!! with maybe just 10 links like this, my DA is incresead from 15 to 19 in less than one month! so, how does this "SEO TOOL" work?? is there anyway to force it to crawl a page?0 -

How to identify spammy website before making backlinks on them
Hi, I search in google but didnt find a proper answer for this! maybe search an incorrect keyword! The question is, How can I find out a website that I'm going to make a backlink on is a spammy website? For example I did this guest bloging on this good website: Best Sure-Shot Organic Pest Control Approaches Every Gardener Should Know | Balcony Garden Web But it seems to be spammy because I use SEO POWERSUIT software that shows this backlink is 20% risk of google penalty! Is it right!? So how can we rest assured for making a quality backlink? I can not think any other way 😞

How can I check a website to see if it is "nofollow"?
I'm a little new to SEO, so maybe this is obvious to some . . . I'm attempting to build backlinks by submitting articles, posting on forums etc. I just wrote my forst article for ezine and submitted it. I was feeling pretty good about myself until I mentioned it to someone trying to sell me their SEO services and he said that ezine articles are considered "nofollow" on all their links. Well, that was pretty frustrating to hear! It got me wondering, how many of these other sites have all their posts and blogs listed as "nofollow"? Is there a way for me to figure it out ahead of time? Obviously, there are only so many hours in the day and I would rather focus on posting on sites that will actually help me build backlinks! Thanks for your help in advance!
