Forwarding a domain seems to be creating 10,720 backlinks according to majestic?
-
I have a site toptwincitiesrealtors.com that points to my main site mnpropertygroup.com when I look up my backlinks on majestic it says I have 10,720 coming from this toptwincitiesrealtors.com site. should I stop pointing that site? I have a low trust flow but high citation flow on my mnpropertygroup.com site and a 0 trust flow and 5 citation flow on my toptwincitiesrealtors.com site

If toptwincitiesrealtors.com has a good authority/backlink profile, it will help mnpropertygroup.com rank.
If toptwincitiesrealtors.com is penalized, it may pass along that penalty.

Any harm in no longer forwarding this site and just using it as another site for lead gen?

"or majestic is counting each redirected page on the old toptwincitiesrealtors.com site as a backlink"
That is what I would guess is happening, I believe the same happens in Google Search Console when you do the same thing.

Looks like you are redirecting toptwincitiesrealtors.com to your main site. This would pass along all backlinks to the main site. (Either that, or majestic is counting each redirected page on the old toptwincitiesrealtors.com site as a backlink).
In either case, where does toptwincitiesrealtors.com get its backlinks from? If its from other quality, niche relevant sites, having it redirect is fine.

I want to know about the Impact of Do-follow backlinks and No-follow backlinks for increasing DA.
Have Do-follow backlinks and No-Follow backlinks same value to increase Domain Authority in Moz? Recently, I have created 290 profile backlinks which was do-follow. But from yesterday I have seen all backlinks are no-follow now according to the decision of sites' owners. My site's DA has already increased up to 35. Will this DA fall gradually from now? Apart from it, if I have created same backlinks for my another site; will my DA be 35? Please try to clarify it. My site is: Homeworkpaper.net Thanks. Waiting for your valuable answer.

Web 2.0 Backlinks
Hi Normal Web 2.0 websites like Wordpress.com, blogger.com have very High DA and PA. But when we create a subdomain, DA and PA falls to 1 as Google treats subdomain as new websites. Does it make any sense then to get backlinks from web 2.0 websites? will it help in Google rankings?

Not sure which url to use for backlinks
Hi our site, northamericahvac.com automatically goes to http://www.northamericahvac.com/servlet/StoreFront. There isnt anything I can do about it though, because we use prostores which limits things for us. That leads me to ask, when I'm making backlinks would I use northamericahvac.com www.northamericahvac,com, or http://www.northamericahvac.com/servlet/StoreFront.

Publish content on current domain for content boost or new domain for links?
I have about 1000 unique and organically generated articles. My quote compare business has had briefs submitted by clients for over two years. The content has only been accessible to registered members. I want to polish it ASAP. Is it better to publish the content on the existing website in a sub folder or set up a new website to publish the content and have every article link back to the main website? Content is around 300 words x 1000.
