Subdomain and nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority?

Greetings, I have a couple of questions about domain authority.
1 - The backlinks that come from different subdomains count several times or only once coming from the same domain?
2 - The nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority?
Thank you.

Hey, thanks for reaching out.

All links that are pointed to your site are weighted in your Domain Authority score, this includes follow and nofollow links.

Hope that helps, let me know if you have further questions.

Problem with third party cookies while using MOZ?

Hello, I am using Moz Pro and I am happy to have this tool for my SEO work. But I am having a little problem while working on my blog site https://thepoolparadise.com/ some times the Moz does not work and asks to allow third-party cookies, wherein the settings third-party cookies are always allowed. Please guide me in this matter. Thank you.

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?

Is Moz's backlink checker.... just... not good?

Hey everyone! Can somebody explain to me why this keeps happening: Whenever I'm trying to backlink my competitors, I typically use RavenTools. Every time, without fail, if I put that same URL into Moz's Open Site Explorer - It gives me about 1/20th of what RavenTools shows me. Sometimes it literally comes up with 2 or 3 links total. Unfortunately, RavenTools has a cap on how many backlink checks you can perform in a month - so once I've used those up, I have to start using OSE... But, it just doesn't work. Does anyone else have this issue? Thanks!

Not existing domains linking to my website (spam)

Hello, When i run my platform www.taobao.nl through https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/ i see a lot of nasty adult domains that link to my platform. These give a very negative (spam)score to my platform. I already disavowed quite a few via Webmastertools, but they keep coming. When i check the names in the Whois, they don't even seem to exist! (anymore) What could cause this and how can i end it?? Thanks for your help! Sander

Does using Sucuri block Moz?

I am using Opensite explorer on my site which uses Sucuri and it shows 0 for everything. Does Sucuri stop MOZ from reading the link? I also suspect that using Sucuri has made my SEO suffer because the first page is always saying "redirecting" . Anyone with experience to this? Thanks
