Question in regards to Comparing Metrics with MOZ tools
-
Hi all!
After using the "Compare Links Metrics" in the research tools, a few questions popped up. Particularly, in regards to what key metrics to look for when determining if a websites outbound links are trustworthy and may pass Link-juice. Basically, "if my link is put on that website, will search engines trust it"? I've copied an example below and typed a few comments next to particular metrics. Please share some insight them:
Page Authority: 48
Page MozRank: 4.94 -Is 4.94 considered OK?
Page MozTrust: 4.96 -Is 4.96 considered OK?
Internal Equity-Passing Links: 2,819
External Equity-Passing Links: 2,326 -Lower = better?
Total Equity-Passing Links: 5,145
Total Internal Links: 2,844
Total External Links: 2,383 - Lower = better?
Total Links: 5,227
Followed Linking Root Domains: 88
Total Linking Root Domains: 129
Linking C Blocks: 30
Equity-Passing Links vs
Non-Equity-Passing Links:** I am assuming that the higher the Non-equity passing links VS the Equity passing links is typically better? What would be an idea ratio?**Internal Links vs
External Links: Lower external = better? -
That's a great location but it seems like most of the info there is pretty spread out in regards to my question. I was interested in figuring out if the number of external link on a site will influence their own reputation, and how.
For example, if site A has 500 external link, and site B has 1000 - and assuming all other metrics are the same for both sites - which one should I try to pursue as far as getting an external link to my own site (i.e. which has the highest SEO value for me)?
Also, I am assuming that when a site has 500 external links, that is 500 external links going out (not coming in).

I was going to try and write about which each one means, but I would just be duplicating this whole section of Moz:
http://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority
Down the right hand side there is a link to each of the sections, with videos and far more information than I could post in the answer box here.
Hope this is useful

Why is there difference in keywords of moz and ahrefs
Hello, my welding helmets website Helmet Adviser is about reviews and is causing me confusion. When I check my site keywords in Moz it shows lesser keywords and when I check in ahrefs it shows more. Same is for backlinks. But Moz keywords research is very authentic and i want to rely on it for keywords and backlinks too. Please elaborate for me why is there diff between Moz and ahref, so I can better utilize Moz by understanding what is going on in the background.

Links in link lists not being discovered by Moz
I uploaded a couple of link lists to Moz about a week ago and have been tracking them. Most of the links on the list are from significant 90+ DA domains such as Wikipedia, Medium, etc. So far, Moz only seems to have discovered about 4 the 200 or so links I loaded. Do we know how long it takes for these to be discovered by Moz? Quite new to this, so any help understanding timelines for this would be appreciated.

No backlinks reporting in MOZ OSE?
We have a bunch of links and none of them report in MOZ OSE. Does the MOZ OSE tool have a cache that takes a while to refresh? We have recently moved over to CloudFlare and since the move the numbers do not add up. Here is a link to a ahrefs screenshot. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. moz.png

Sudden Spike in 404 Pages Not Found in Moz Crawl But No Errors in WMT
Recently I received a spike in errors from the Moz crawler. When I looked into the matter I noticed that all the URI's looked right but then I looked a little closer and there was a /page/2 and /page/3 in front of the URI's. I'm running a WordPress website. Immediately I thought to myself this must be some kind of caching or permalinks error. So I disabled all my plugins including W3 Total Cache and ran the Integrity Link Crawler for the Mac and found that the errors were still popping up. 404-errors-ncworkercomp.png?dl=0
