      I'm new to MOZ and thought I'd try it out free for 30 days, knuckle down and fix any issues with my website since I only set it up in January and want to keep it in tip top condition and try to get it ranking. Well, I made my way through each page and fixed everything and then I come to in the inbound links/domains and my eyes turn into saucers and I almost fall off my chair.

      I have 1 inbound link with a spam score of 78% from a site named "Nitter". How on earth do I get rid of this and what the heck is "Nitter"?!

          @millieandtilly Make good use of links.
          Links are a key component of your SEO, as we teach in our SEO Masterclass, and it's critical that you get them correctly. Here are three things to keep in mind when it comes to spam signals: When it comes to employing links, the keyword is 'natural.' It makes sense to connect to sources when discussing facts or utilizing statistics, for example, if you're talking about SEO (as we are here). It's also a good idea to double-check that you've linked to a high-quality, authoritative site.

          It's also normal that if your website just has 10,000 words, you'll only have 10-50 links. However, if you have 100,000 words, you may only have 100-500 words.

            @millieandtilly Good morning! I don't know much about Nitter other than that it is a Twitter alternative. I recommend you read Tom Capper's recent tutorial on disavowing links to learn more about what to do with links you've received that you don't want: https://moz.com/blog/when-to-disavow-links

              Unsolved Website with no backlinks and a DA of 1 ranks first. Why?

              backlinks seo da

              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? Garry

              PA and DA for Homepage

              page authority domain authority internal linking homepage

              I've been looking at the PA and DA scores for the homepage of websites we have built and have been comparing this to competitors. What I'm finding is that the PA score is always higher than the DA, however on competitors sites the PA is much higher in relation to the DA. What could be the reason for this? For example, some of our website homepages may have PA / DA scores such as the following: Website #1: PA37 DA25 (PA:DA = 1.48)
              Website #2: PA31 DA21 (PA:DA = 1.47) However competitors often have figures like this: Website #3: PA40 DA21 (PA:DA 1.9)
              Website #4: PA 25 DA 11 (PA:DA 2.27) I even saw one website with the following scores: Website #5: PA36 DA5 (PA:DA 7.2) How do you explain such a high Page Authority in relation to the domain authority for that site? When I look at the scores for our websites I often feel that the DA is at a good level, but the PA for the homepage doesn't seem as high as it could be compared to competitors. My initial thought was that maybe we had a lot of backlinks to other pages on the website (not the homepage) but this is not the case at all - pretty much all our backlinks are to the homepage. Could it be to do with internal linking structure? Any other ideas? Many thanks in advance for any help with this.

              Unsolved Links to my website are wrong

              domain authority link building link building whitehat

              Hi, I have launch a new website, lorraine on october of 2021 and I have added it to a bunch a local and national directories to improme it local rankings. But when I get the domain authority and link data from MOZ it has only ten links and no one of them is from local/national directories. I have three questions: Do you know if it is normal that after 9 months DA is 1? Is there any problem with local/national directory links? I dont like buy links like others do but it seems the only way to improve domain authority and rankings.

              How To Encourage Google To Discover Links?

              link building backlinks

              I got a valuable backlink from a high authority website (MSN), but the link is placed in the middle of a slideshow with 20 pictures, and the only way to reach it is by clicking through the slideshow. After 6 months, this link still hasn't been noticed by Moz or Semrush, and I assume Google hasn't seen it either, because it's in the middle of a slideshow. Is there any way to encourage Google to find this link? Or am I all out of luck?
