I get 401 Your authentication failed, my application has worked for 2 years.
-
I have an old link request application which i have restarted. I have regenerated the api key, however i get 401 Your authentication failed on request.
The test signature works and returns my account no.
Here is my request:
I have replaced my memberID and signature with dummy data to protect my credentials. Is my request string correct?
Also where can i get the expiry parameter?

We had this issue when we moved from staging to production. Worked fine on staging, but not on production.
It ended up the clock on one of our production servers was 6 minutes behind. This caused the expiration to error out. Immediately we increased the expiration, and ultimately set the proper time on the server.
This resolved all issues relating to the following error:
401 Error - Your authentication has expired. Re-send your authentication and try again. For more information on signed authentication, see: http://apiwiki.moz.com/signed-authentication

I have solved this issue

Competitor getting External Links from search.aol.com
Recently, I noticed that one of the competitors I track within my Moz campaign received about 12 new inbound links. As a result, there DA jumped about 10 points. I reviewed these new external links and was surprised to see that they are all "search.aol.com/aol/search?query= ..." with Link Anchor Text that is good for the industry we compete in. Can anyone tell me why these are being counted as "Inbound Links". It just doesn't seem right. Is this some sort of black hat seo tactic?

I have a duplicate content on my Moz crawler, but google hasn't indexed those pages: do I still need to get rid of the tags?
I received an urgent error from the Moz crawler that I have duplicate content on my site due to the tags I have. For example: http://www.1forjustice.com/graves-amendment/ The real article found here: http://www.1forjustice.com/car-accident-rental-car/ I didn't think this was a big deal, because when I looked at my GWT these pages weren't indexed (picture attached). Question: should I bother fixing this from an SEO perspective? If Google isn't indexing the pages, then am I losing link juice? 6c2kxiZ

Is there a way to get the domain authority of a subdomain?
For example, www.storage-mart.com and us.storage-mart.com both show the same DA in OSE. I believe it's the DA of the root domain. How can I compare the DA of the 'www' and 'us' subdomains?

Still Getting Keyword Self-Cannibalization
I used the onsite optimization and made some changes to my post, but am still getting the Self-Cannibalization mention in my results. It lists this: "Real Estate Careers | Keller Williams | Career In Real Estate" as the link that is not supposed to be there. This is not a link, but the title of the post. What am I missing?
