MozBar tool doesn't highlight follow/no follow, what does that mean?
-
We use the MozBar tool to easily check what links are follow or no-follow. However, when we entered in this URL: http://www.e-ir.info/2017/01/17/security-and-the-brexit-effect/ and we clicked on "edit" > "follow" within the MozBar tool in Google Chrome, if you scroll down to "Featured image courtesy of www.americanadvisorsgroup.com ", you'll noticed that the link doesn't show whether it's a follow or not.
Can someone clarify if MozBar sees links with no indication of follow/no follow as a follow? We look at the URL itself and it doesn't have any indication of no follow. Would love to get someone's feedback on this.

Hey there!
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
So it looks like there are a couple of problems here - one is that Javascript is used on the page, and if the link follows the Javascript (which we aren't compatible with), this might be tripping us up. That said, it's more likely the formatting of the link that is preventing us from reading it accurately: http://www.screencast.com/t/6qP2w8WDoWY - it looks to be more like some kind of email redirect rather than a typical link, so in this case, it looks like an issue primarily with the formatting of the link in general that's preventing us from picking it up as a follow/no follow.
I hope this helps - let us know if we can help with anything else!

Employees using the Dealership's address and popping up as duplicates in Moz Local?
We are using Moz Local and have a client who's salespeople create individual Facebook Pages for themselves and use the storefront's address. They are noted as duplicates. How much does this really hurt local SEO?

It's been 1 year, why hasn't our Moz Local completion percent improved?
Our listing is about to renew, but the completion percentage has not improved since the first month we started with Moz twelve months ago. I see in Moz there are many duplicate listings for this business. I was under the impression that Moz was handling this as part of the yearly fee; is that correct? If not, what needs to be done to resolve these issues and make sure our listings are complete and accurate?

Moz Local doesn't have Categories for my clients business
Moz Local doesn't have Categories for my clients business, for that matter neither does Google Business: Using the Moz category tool- and Superpages, where we have been listed for a long time, the following categories have no MOZ local or Google Equivalent. Millwright CRATES & CRATING INDUSTRIAL PACKING & CRATING CRANES, HOISTING, & RIGGING SERVICES MACHINERY MOVERS & ERECTORS EXPORT CONSULTANTS RIGGERS EQUIPMENT & SUPPLIES this makes fitting into Local search very difficult at best. Since the Moving category is so crowded, and brings in 99 household moves to one legitimate industrial move or rigging jobs. So is it best just not to pay for Moz local? How do we get Moz Local and google to add these important industrial local categories?

Why don't the duplicate listings from the moz/local search show up on the moz/local dashboard
When I do a MOZ/Local search on the search listings tab I see all the listings with different information but they don't show up on the moz dashboard for the subscribed listing.
