      Other tools like ahref and smallseotools show different backlinks compared to MOZ for our website (www.unitedopt.com)

      ahref shows up 18,550 backlinks. Here I attached a screenshot of ahref.
      e754dbe6-3fb1-4362-8ae3-38cb0164b54f-image.png

      As well MOZ shows up with 2.4k backlinks.
      See this screenshot:

      Why does this happen? Please respond to my question as soon as possible.

        You can disavow backlinks through Google Search Console, we have a guide that does touch on toxic backlinks which may be helpful. Although Google will now recognize spammy backlinks and understands that you're not trying to be spiteful.

          Hey

          You can disavow backlinks through GSC (Google Search Console) although we have a guide that does touch on toxic backlinks which may be helpful

          Although Google now recognises spammy backlinks and understands that you're not trying to be malicious, although we always keep a close eye on rankings as too many can have a negative affect

                It happens there will be differences in results I have experienced it too. I would suggest getting good quality links from authority sites and disavow bad links affecting your site. Get relevant links from your niche. Google loves relevance. I use Postifluence to get organic do-follow links through guest posting. It has always worked for me.

                  WAYS TO FIX BACKLINK ISSUES:

                  1. Disavow low-credibility backlinks, as described above.

                  2 . Minimize broken links to your site through strategic redirects that help avoid the loss of equity from high-quality backlinks.

                  1. Create and promote high-quality content. That’s easier said than done. But the single best way to get lots of backlinks is to write content so good others can’t help but link to it as a resource.

                  2. Create profiles on law firm directories, which tend to have high credibility, linking back directly to your website.

                  3. Leverage strategic partnerships. For example, if a lawyer in your firm has a new accomplishment, consider partnering with their alma mater to create a news item on the university website that could link back to your site.

                  Greeting,
                  Rachel Gomez

                    Each tool is built differently. Therefore, some tools may report more backlinks than another. Use a combination of tool as a guide to evaluate your own website backlink profile health or to scout for opportunities from competitors backlink profile. Ahrefs, Moz, SEMRush, Majestic are top resources in this regard.

                      Hey, While researching the backlinks of a client's website I found around 3000 links with the structure: http://54.201.231.138/page. The IP doesn't seem to be of their website and the MOZ Spam score for the domain is 1%. Wondering what these links are and if they're a big problem? Thank you in advance. Warmly,

                      PayPal Billing issue

                      we’re trying to pay for the Friday Webinar on advanced auditing, but typically PayPal uses the balance when you click “Pay” , which we DONT want. We want to use a credit card.  When you click on “change” on paypal you typically are offered the credit cards you have on file, but this version only gives you the option of putting in a new credit card instead of serving up the cards that are already on file with PayPal. When we try to add a new card it tells us that that card is already linked to a paypal account (which would be the same one we are using). How do we pay with our credit card?

                      I am new to MOZ pro. I have lots of spam backlinks from a company that blackhatted me about 5 years ago. Can MOZ list these for me? I don't know how. Thanks

                      Several issues moz analytics

                      I have found several issues with Moz Analytics. Wondering if it is only me or am I missing something... 1. I am not able to create branded reports or reports what so ever. I need this functionality like it is advertised.
                      2. In Search competition is not working at all. it states "not in top 50" for all keywords witch is not true.
                      3. In Crawl diagnostics I get this "Rel Canonical" issue even though the rel canonical tag is in the website. I have send a mail to support but no answer until today. Earlier I did receive a answer on my questions so i guess there is one way of sending questions to the moz team witch is not working.
