Moz Integration

Connect your Moz account to SEOGEO Tools to access Domain Authority (DA), Page Authority (PA), Spam Score, and backlink data.

What You Get

With Moz integration, you can:

• Domain Authority (DA): See your domain's authority score (0-100)
• Page Authority (PA): View authority scores for individual pages
• Spam Score: Identify potential spam signals
• Backlinks: Import your backlink profile from Moz
• Referring Domains: See which domains link to you
• Anchor Text: Analyze your anchor text distribution

Getting Your Moz API Token

1. Sign up for Moz: Go to moz.com and create an account
2. Access the API Dashboard: Navigate to moz.com/api/dashboard
3. Generate API Token: Create a new API token (x-moz-token)
4. Copy the token: You'll need this for SEOGEO Tools

Note: Some Moz API features require a paid subscription. The free tier includes limited API calls.

Connecting Moz to SEOGEO Tools

1. Go to Settings > Integrations in your project
2. Click Add SEO Provider
3. Select Moz from the provider list
4. Paste your API token
5. Click Test Connection to verify
6. Click Save when successful

API Endpoints Used

SEOGEO Tools uses the following Moz Links API v2 endpoints:

Endpoint	Purpose	Data Retrieved
/url_metrics	Authority metrics	DA, PA, Spam Score, link counts
/links	Backlinks	Source URLs, anchor text, follow/nofollow
/linking_root_domains	Referring domains	Domain list with authority scores
/anchor_text	Anchor analysis	Anchor text distribution

Rate Limits

Moz API has usage-based limits depending on your plan:

Plan	Monthly Rows	Notes
Free	10 rows/month	Very limited
Starter	5,000 rows/month	Good for small sites
Standard	25,000 rows/month	Most users
Large	100,000+ rows/month	Agency use

Each API call consumes rows based on results returned. Check your usage at moz.com/api/dashboard.

Syncing Data

After connecting Moz:

1. Go to Backlinks page
2. Click Sync from Moz
3. Wait for the sync to complete
4. View your backlinks, referring domains, and anchors

Syncs are asynchronous and may take a few minutes for large sites.

Troubleshooting

Invalid Token Error

Problem: Connection test fails with "Invalid API token" Solution:
• Verify you copied the complete token
• Ensure the token is the x-moz-token format
• Check if your Moz subscription is active

Rate Limit Exceeded

Problem: Sync fails with rate limit error Solution:
• Wait until your monthly quota resets
• Upgrade your Moz plan for more rows
• Reduce sync frequency

Empty Results

Problem: Sync completes but no data appears Solution:
• Verify your domain has backlinks in Moz
• Check the domain format (with or without https://)
• Try syncing with just the root domain

Anchor Text Not Available

Problem: Anchor text tab is empty Solution: The anchor_text endpoint requires a paid Moz plan. Free accounts cannot access anchor text data.

Best Practices

1. Sync regularly: Run monthly syncs to track changes
2. Compare providers: Use alongside Semrush/Ahrefs for complete picture
3. Monitor Spam Score: High spam scores indicate potential issues
4. Track DA trends: Watch for unexpected drops

FAQ

Q: What's the difference between DA and PA?

A: Domain Authority measures your entire domain's authority, while Page Authority measures individual page strength.

Q: How often should I sync?

A: Monthly syncs are sufficient for most sites. High-volume sites may benefit from weekly syncs.

Q: Can I use multiple SEO providers?

A: Yes! SEOGEO Tools supports Moz, Semrush, and Ahrefs simultaneously.
