SEO Benefit from Moz Profile link?
-
Hi all
Excuse the rookie question, but do the website links in Moz profile give positive SEO benefits?
If so how long should it take to start seeing improvements or have the linking domain in Open explorer and is there a way to speed things up?
Thanks in advance

Looking forward to it

Thanks David! I might just visit your company profile see if you can help with what I'm doing

Well put David!

It can help, but if you are expecting a single MOZ link to skyrocket you ahead of all your competitors, that will not happen. Google looks at the complete link profile for a site, and not one singular instance. Will it help? Sure! Will it make a night and day difference? NO.
The best way to use your MOZ profile is to make yourself an active member of the community, and show that you know what you are talking about. MOZ is a leading authority of not only industry experts, but also of people looking for help and advice. Link from your website to your profile page. Link to your social accounts from your profile page. If it is something you would like to promote, then have a space on your site that states you are a member of the MOZ community. We get link referrals from MOZ all the time, and we have also gotten leads from members on here looking for help.
In short, for it to be the most effective, don't think of just the link. Think of how you can use the community to broaden your reach and exposure.

Thanks Shawn.. 3 easy points coming your way

Hey guys!
Once you reach 200 points in your Moz account, they will remove the "no follow" from the first link in your profile. Check out more about how Moz points work here.
Hope this helps! And you will get a nice juicy link from Moz once this happens

If you are talking about the links you created in your profile, those are all "nofollow" so there won't be any value. To get one of them to be a "follow" link you have to earn a minimum of 200 MozPoints.

Does Moz register backlinks from Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn?
I've noticed that on sites with decent social presence and regular content posts that Moz isn't showing/recording any inbound links from Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn. Posts are regularly shared via these three channels but no inbound links ever seem to show up. Does Moz not record such inbound links, or are they all disguised using JavaScript or some other trick?

Moz Crawl Canonicals and Duplicates
Hi all, I am using Moz Crawl to analyze some sites I am having to optimize.
Link Explorer | | Eurasmus.com
I keep seeing many of my pages detected as duplicate content when they have the rel=canonical applied. Example: www.spain-internship.com/zh-CN/blog-by-aaron
I have seen that in other sites. Of course I understand that Moz is not perfect but, is there a known issue or am I doing something wrong with the canonicals? Regards,0 -
I have a robots.txt error on Moz but not on Google Webmaster tools. Wondering what to do.
For the site www.patrickwerry.com, I'm getting a DA of 1 and a Error Code 612: Error response for robots.txt However, when I check webmaster tools, it's showing no errors and allowing robots.txt for the domain. Is there anything I can do to fix the issue on the Moz side so I can get better data? If you can respond in layman's terms even better. 🙂 Not an SEO. Lisa

Removing the clutter of site-wide links
I have a multi-part question with regard to the moz link index and some presentation suggestions. Firstly I would be interested to know how the link index treats site-wide links with regard to metrics such as DA, and PA. We all know that it is highly likely that SE's are unlikely to pass full link value across from sitewide links, and therefore it would make sense for Moz values to account for this as well - if they do not already. One annoying thing that also relates to sitewides is that they tend to clutter the much of the information presentation in a few of the tools (you can't see wood for trees as it were). This is most prominent in the "Just Discovered" page - if you have a sitewides on a large site, you can often find that this screen is just totally filled with these links as they are found. It would be very useful to be able to filter these out, as they are of little interest - currently I can't see a way of filtering them out. A further value where they create to much noise is the 'Total Links' value. Where sitewides are included in this value, the value actually becomes pretty meaningless as you can find that the majority of that value is sitewides. It would therefore be useful if there was another value for 'Total Links - Excluding Sitewides' where maybe value of 1 was just added to the count for a site wide

Does the inbound links report include links to all pages of the domain being researched?
If I enter 'abc.com' am I only getting results for 'abc.com' or will I get results for the internal pages of 'abc.com' as well (i.e. 'abc.com/page1.html)? There is a bit of a discrepancy between these results and inbound link results in semrush for example. Then again it seems whenever you use different tools to measure the same thing you get wildly varying results. How do you all deal with that?
