Yext in MOZ local in Conjuction
-
Can you use yext and moz local in conjunction with out having to worry about duplicate listings. I know yext let you opt out of listings. So my questions is will my website be hurt if i do both?
-
You can run a test in moz to see if you have duplicate listings before even trying both. I just signed up for moz local and i love it.

Really great question. MOZ local is definitely most bang for your buck, however Yext offers listings that MOZ local does not include, and so if you have the budget why not use both right!.
According to moz's https://mza.bundledseo.com/local/how they answer a similar question, so this gives us a some-what complete answer of go ahead and use both:
If I already manage my listings on sites in your network, what will happen to those listings if I use Moz Local? Do you override them?
Response:
- In most cases, we will not override your listings. Localeze and Superpages will reject our efforts to publish your listings if you’re already managing them on those platforms. You can still manage listings independently on those platforms—or remove those listings and establish them through Moz Local.

Links Not Detected by MOZ, AHREFS, GSC-ARE THESE QUALITY LINKS?
Our SEO provider has been creating content (6 blog posts per month as well as building page write ups) and has been promoting that content. Several links per month have been created as a result of this effort. Many of the links have been from commercial real estate publications. I am concerned that the quality of these links is not high enough to improve our ranking. Most links do not appear on AHREFS, Google Search Console or MOZ. Is this a red flag that these links are weak? Ranking and traffic on the site have improved considerably since this provider began the project in April of 2019. They have been writing about 30 pages about New York City. commercial buildings each month in addition to 4 short blog posts and 2 extremely well researched and authoritative blog posts. My concern is that the links are not of sufficient quality to result increased ranking. That the improvement in ranking is solely due to the addition of new content rather than the creation of these links. Basically, that I am incurring the cost on an ongoing basis of an link building campaign with little to no benefit. That being the case, I would shift resources to content creation and increase and improve content rather than develop links with little value. A sample of links are below: Would greatly appreciate some feedback as to whether these are in fact helpful to the domain authority, reputation and ranking of our website. Thanks,

Will a GEO Localization site create thousands of duplicates?
Hi mozzers, We are about to launch a new site and right now I am worried that this new site may create thousands of duplicate content which will harm all the SEO that has been done in the last few years. Here is a situation: You land on the example.com/Los-angeles page (geo located) but if you modify URI to example.com/chico then a pop up appears and ask you for the location you want to be in (pop up attached). When choosing chico the URI switches to example.com/chico?franchise=chico instead of /chico only. This site has over 40 different microsites so my question are all these arguments ?franchise=city going to be indexed and create thousands of dups? or are we safe because this geo localization happens thanks to javascript? Thanks! GopRinh.png

Why does it take weeks to gain Moz page authority?
I have noticed in my Google news website, that after publishing a post, it takes around 3-4 weeks till that page gains MOZ page authority I am interested in knowing why it takes this set period of time. Is there a way to shorted that period? And am I correct in thinking that links from a page with MOZ authority of say 33 is more powerful then a link from a page with MOZ page authority of 1? Would be great to understand more about this

Local SEO, located just outside major city
I have never had a local website, but I have a friend who owns a company that would be strictly local so it made wonder: If a company is located just outside a major metropolitan area, is it possible for this company to compete with companies that are located within the actual city. Here's an example. A construction company located in Plano, Texas wants to rank for Dallas Construction Companies. Plano is 15 mins from downtown Dallas. Does this company have much of a chance ranking on the map for Dallas Construction companies when they have a business address of Plano, Texas?

Local SEO - Business name and web address different
Howdy Local Experts, I'm hoping you can clear up something for me.. I'm setting up some places for a company that's spread across 5 cities. I am creaitng 5 separate locations for this. The company name is not the same as the website name. All the SEO efforts are for the website name ( the brand ) not the parent company name., so... 1. When creating the places do I enter the business name in "company/organisation" and put the brand name in the web site field? Or is it better for seo to have the brand name here as the company name too? 2. Are all 5 listings more or less going to be the same except for the address and phone numbers? I suppose unique photos etc for each location is better here? 3. When creating citations i am essentially going to be building 5 separate "links", one for each place is that correct. So adding the specific location details into the matching state and city business directories etc? 3. The exact business category doesn't accurately show up in the list. Do i select the closest thing here or create custom categories to better match the business. Apologies for the lenghty question, Derek
