      Moz keeps saying that these websites (amongst others)...

      https://toolszap.com/
      https://www.findwallpaperhd.com/
      https://onlinecoursesschools.com/
      https://www.tonzo.com/

      ...are linking to one of my client sites at https://www.scamblermusic.com

      The websites in question clearly aren't related and aren't linking to the site, and there's no reference to Scambler Music anywhere in the source code.

      Why does Moz keep listing backlinks that simply don't appear to exist?

        @jcn-sbwd Yes they should do something for the backlinks that have expired or no more available. Its really hard to find forum listing sites and business listing sites these days.

              @jcn-sbwd I hear you. sometimes it’s really hard to find the source! I was checking your links… The first two ones are not accessible. The third one is actually accessible, but my guess that the link already been removed - it seems that MOZ never remove the ones that no longer exist! I have a similar problem with solarpowerpanels.net.au. there are at least 30 high scored spam links that show on MOZ despite them been remove a long time ago!
              Maybe try to run your domain on ahref.com - they are much better with backlinks discovery and also they report right away when links are actually been removed. You fourth link tonzo.com is actually got a live link but under a subdomain https://uk.tonzo.com/biz/scambler

                Hi all, It seems like moz has been stuck on crawling our site for a while now - I had a message of 'you will get a notification for when your site crawl is complete' for about 2 weeks now, and it doesn't seem to finish it? Any ideas why this happens and how to fix it? Thank you in advance.

                Unsolved Backlinks issues.

                backlinks

                I am hoping this is the right forum to ask this question. But, I was looking at my backlinks and noticed that I had some go to a page that resembles my site, but had porn words on it. however, it would link to a place on my site. Under more information it has a real link to my site. What is this? I noticed the domain authority was in I believe the 70's; but PA was in 40's. I am new, so can someone explain this. Thank you. example below:

                Backlinks on Moz not on Google Search Console

                google search console backlinks

                Moz is showing thousands of backlinks to my site that are not showing up on Google Search Console - which is good because those links were created by some spammer in Pakistan somewhere. I haven't yet submitted a disavow report to Google of well over 10K links because the list keeps growing every day with new backlinks that have been rerouted to a 404 page. I have asked Google to clarify and they put my question on their forum for an answer, which I'm still waiting for - so I thought I'd try my luck here. My question... If Moz does not match Google Search Console, and backlinks are important to results, how valid is the ranking that Moz creates to let me know how I'm doing in this competition and if I'm improving or not. If the goal is to get Google to pay attention and I use Moz to help me figure out how to do this, how can I do that if the backlink information isn't the same - by literally over 10 000 backlinks created by some spammer doing odd things... They've included the url from their deleted profile on my site with 100s of other urls, including Moz.com and are posting them everywhere with their preferred anchor text. Moz ranking considers the thousands of spam backlinks I can't get rid of and Google ignores them or disavows them. So isn't the rankings, data, and graphs apples and bananas? How can I know what my site's strength really is and if I'm improving or not if the data doesn't match? Complete SEO Novice Shannon Peel

                Should I disavow these links?

                backlinks toxicbacklinks audit backlinkaudit disavow

                Hi all, I have a ski website that I am currently performing a toxic backlink audit on. I have noted that a lot of the links being flagged as toxic/spammy by the tool I am using seem to be the same/similar sites with different URLs. The sites are vaguely related to skiing (relating to helicopter travel options for travelling to ski resorts) but it is concerning me that there are so many of them and they are being flagged as so toxic.
                Do you think it is worth disavowing these? Or contacting the owner to ask them to remove the link? I have included an example of some of the links below. https://www.cannes-helicopters.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5
                https://nice-helicopter.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5

                Unsolved Moz doesn't find backlinks for months / link tracking list offline

                link tracking list link explorer backlinks domain authority

                Hi there
                I want to share a big problem with you. Moz tracking list seems to be offline or having trouble finding links. I have an example:
                The page where the backlink has been placed was created months ago. As you can see on the picture:
                Link to the page is http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/profile/tableauxdumonde
                Backlink on that page is https://ggongtime.com/ Picture shows clearly that the page of backlink (Microsoft) has been indexed and already has got it's own backlinks in Moz (8) but it is still not linking to the backlink website (ggongtime.com).
                I've also attached a picture of page source where you can clearly see that it is a html link and is dofollow.
                The problem remains since 3 months and I want to find out what is going on. This Microsoft page is one of example. There are hundreds of other pages being found, or not, and are still not showing up in Link Explorer on website's portfolio.
                I want to know if there is a technical problem with link explorer, or anything else, because this is a serious problem for me. moz problem.png
