Moz Scraper — Domain Authority, Spam Score, Backlinks & Keywords (No Login)

Scrape Moz's free domain-analysis SEO metrics for any list of domains — no Moz account, no Moz Pro subscription, no login. Give it domains or URLs and get back Domain Authority (DA), Spam Score, linking root domains, ranking keywords, top linking domains, top pages, and a 60-day link-acquisition history — one clean structured record per domain. You only pay for domains that return data.

Why use this Moz Scraper?

• No Moz account required. Skip the sign-up, the seat limits, and the Moz Pro paywall — paste domains and pull metrics.
• Bulk by design. Feed one domain or thousands; each is de-duplicated and processed in parallel.
• You never pay for empty lookups. Domains that return no data are skipped and never billed.
• Clean, export-ready output. Structured JSON, CSV, or Excel — ready for dashboards, BI tools, and prospecting sheets.
• Handles the hard part for you. Anti-bot protection is handled internally — no captchas, no proxies to configure.

What it does

For every domain you submit, this Actor pulls the public Moz domain-analysis report and returns:

• Domain Authority (DA) — Moz's 0–100 score predicting ranking strength.
• Spam Score — the percentage risk signal.
• Linking Root Domains — count of unique referring domains.
• Ranking Keywords — total keywords the domain ranks for.
• Top Linking Domains — the strongest referring domains, each with its own DA.
• Top Pages — the domain's strongest pages, each with a Page Authority (PA).
• 60-Day Link History — discovered vs. lost linking domains over the last ~60 days.

Supported inputs

Input	Example	Notes
Bare domain	apify.com	Simplest form
Full URL	https://www.stripe.com/pricing	Scheme + path are stripped to the host
Subdomain	blog.example.com	Kept as its own target
Bulk list	["a.com","b.com", …]	De-duplicated; billed once per unique host

Use cases

• Link-building & outreach — bulk-qualify prospect domains by DA and Spam Score before you pitch.
• SEO audits — snapshot DA, linking root domains, and ranking-keyword counts across a portfolio or client list.
• Lead scoring & enrichment — append authority signals to a CRM or prospect matrix.
• Competitive research — compare authority and top-linking-domain profiles across competitors.
• Content & PR planning — spot the strongest pages and referring domains worth targeting.

How it works

1. You submit domains — any mix of hosts, URLs, or a bulk list.
2. The Actor fetches Moz's free domain-analysis page for each (Cloudflare protection is handled automatically — no login, no captcha on your side).
3. Metrics are parsed into one clean record per domain and streamed to the dataset as they complete.

Input configuration

Field	Type	Default	Description
domains	array	—	Domains or URLs to analyze (required).
fastMode	boolean	false	Bulk DA-only mode — whole list in seconds. See below.
includeTopLinkingDomains	boolean	true	Include the top linking domains list (with per-domain DA).
includeTopPages	boolean	true	Include the top pages list (with per-page PA).
includeLinkHistory	boolean	true	Include the 60-day discovered/lost link history.
maxItems	integer	10000	Cap on domains processed (and billable results).
maxConcurrency	integer	5	Parallel domain lookups.
requestTimeoutMs	integer	90000	Per-request timeout before a retry.
maxRequestRetries	integer	3	Retries per domain before it's skipped (never billed).
proxy	object	off	Optional — usually unnecessary.

Two modes

	Default (full report)	fastMode: true
Speed	a few seconds per domain, run in parallel	whole list in seconds
Domain Authority	✅ live	✅ index snapshot
Spam Score	✅	✅
Linking root domains	✅ site-scoped	⚠️ subdomain-scoped (different, usually lower, figure)
Ranking keywords	✅	❌
Top linking domains / Top pages	✅	❌
60-day discovered/lost history	✅	❌ (returns a DA-over-time series instead)
source field on each row	moz	bulk-index

Use fastMode when you're qualifying a big list and only need DA + spam score — e.g. filtering thousands of link prospects before pulling full reports on the survivors.

Accuracy note: fastMode reads an index snapshot that can trail the live Moz report by a few points (e.g. a domain showing DA 59 live may read 49 here), and its referring-domain count is subdomain-scoped. Every fast-mode row is stamped source: "bulk-index" and dataFreshness: "lagging snapshot…" so you never mix the two silently. For exact, current figures, leave fastMode off.

FAQ

Do I need a Moz account or API key? No. This Actor reads Moz's public free domain-analysis tool — no account, key, or subscription.

Is pageAuthority always filled? Moz shows a single scalar Domain Authority but exposes Page Authority per page — so top-level pageAuthority is often null, while each entry in topPages[] carries its own pa.

What happens for a domain Moz has no data on? You get a low/empty result, and if Moz returns nothing usable the domain is skipped and not billed.

How fast is it? Roughly a few seconds per domain, run in parallel up to your maxConcurrency.

Can I get competitors and full keyword lists? Moz gates those behind a login on its own site, so this Actor returns the rich free-view field set (DA, Spam, linking domains, ranking-keyword counts, top linking domains, top pages, link history).

🤖 For AI Agents & LLM Apps

Compact reference for AI agents calling this actor via the Apify MCP server or the Apify API (actor: memo23/moz-scraper).

Purpose: Pull Moz's free domain-analysis SEO metrics (Domain Authority, Spam Score, linking root domains, ranking keywords, top linking domains, top pages, 60-day link history) for a list of domains with no Moz account.

Minimal input:

{
  "domains": ["apify.com"],
  "maxItems": 10
}

Output: one row per unique host — input, domain, domainAuthority, pageAuthority, spamScore, linkingRootDomains, rankingKeywords, topLinkingDomains[] {domain, da}, topPages[] {url, pa}, linkHistory[] {date, discovered, lost}, checkedAt, source.

Behaviors an agent should know:

• maxItems (default 10000) caps both domains processed and billable results — set it to bound cost.
• domains accepts bare hosts, full URLs, or subdomains; each is normalized to its host and deduplicated, so a repeated host is looked up and billed once.
• includeTopLinkingDomains, includeTopPages, includeLinkHistory (all default true) add the larger nested lists; turn them off for a lean core-metrics row.
• Domains Moz has no usable data for are skipped and never billed; Cloudflare handling is internal, so proxy is usually unnecessary.
• Login-gated Moz data (competitor lists, full keyword lists) is out of scope — only the free-view field set is returned; top-level pageAuthority is often null while each topPages[] entry carries its own pa.
• Pay-per-event billing — see the Pricing tab on the actor page.
