Moz uses its own crawler to gather data and calculate domain authority (DA) and backlink metrics for websites. The backlinks reported in Google Webmasters Dashboard may not necessarily appear in Moz's dashboard due to differences in crawling and data collection methodologies between the two platforms.
While you can manually add backlinks to Moz's dashboard, it's important to note that adding backlinks won't directly affect your website's DA score. Moz's algorithm calculates DA based on various factors, including the quality and quantity of linking domains, the relevancy of the linking sites, and other SEO metrics. Adding backlinks won't automatically reflect the impact on your DA score.
To improve the accuracy of backlink data in Moz, you can use their Link Explorer tool to perform a backlink analysis and see if the specific backlinks you're interested in are detected. This tool allows you to enter your website URL and view the backlinks Moz has discovered for your site.
It's worth mentioning that DA is a metric specific to Moz and may not align perfectly with Google's perception of your website's authority. It's always a good idea to consider multiple data sources and metrics when evaluating your website's backlink profile and overall SEO performance.
Remember, building high-quality and relevant backlinks from reputable sources is generally more important than obsessing over specific metrics. Focus on creating valuable content and promoting your website in legitimate ways to attract authoritative backlinks naturally.

Backlink builder (Professional)
If I wanted to hire a professional person to build high quality backlinks for me, where would I look? I'm asking here because I'd rather go on the recommendation of other businesses owners, than a google search. Does anyone have a person that they can recommend? It's for an insurance agency in Texas. Many thanks

Unsolved Website with no backlinks and a DA of 1 ranks first. Why?
https://www.realestatephotos.melbourne does not have any backlinks and has a DA of 1.

This site ranks first for keywords - real estate photography melbourne and property photography melbourne.
Not sure why.
URL contains keywords and site is ok. But other sites with many links and higher DA rank lower. Why? Garry1 -

Moz Local and Apple Maps: How does the listing update work?
Hello, how are apple maps updated via Moz Local? We have a client who changed their business name within the last six months. We noticed one of the few items that has not changed to date within their Moz dashboard is the name of the business on Apple Maps. In the Accuracy grid, the only item not checked within the Apple Maps column is the business name. Does anyone know how this process works within the Moz Local portal? Is there something we can do to advance the name change on our end? Thank you.

How does Moz Local work with business that don't have a physical location? (e.g., handyman, locksmith, etc.)
I'm wondering how Moz Local will handle a business that doesn't want to publicly display an address. A handyman, landscaper, or locksmith might want to do something like this. Is it easily handled or do you have to manually try to "work around" to hide the address on sites that let you? Thanks!
