Can I get a list of all links on a given domain?
-
Sorry, this is actually kind of a tripartite question:
I was looking at the Competitive Link Analysis on one my clients' campaigns. Sometime between June and September their total links went up by about 120,000. We have no idea where those links came from (although the numbers would indicate that they're mostly internal).
Question 1: In none of the other tools can I figure out how to list these links on a domain level. Is there a way to get a list of all links for our given domain?
I've been playing around with the page-by-page and even that doesn't show me everything. For example, I'm looking at OSE for their homepage and it lists 45 links for a page that it claims has 151 total.
Question 2: How did it pick those 45 to display out of the 151 possible? If these are only external links, why do half of them come from one of our subdomains?
Also...
Question 3: If our client hasn't made any major changes recently, why has the number of internal links gone up so dramatically?
Thanks.

Hi Bozzie,
Sorry to hear about this problem. I'd also suggest emailing the help desk and sending them a copy of your CSV so they can help you out.

I have also had the same issue of ose not exporting all the ones it said it found.

Ok. Thanks.

I'd email your information to the help desk at help@seomoz.org and include details about your search and a copy of the CSV in case this is a bug they need to look into.

Hey Bryant,
Thanks for answering my questions.
I do have a follow-up, if someone can help me out with this:
I went back and applied the "all links" "external" and "root domain" filters. OSE told me there were 368 results. When I exported them to CSV, however, it only returned 79.
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks again.

Hi, Mackenzie Fogelson
This could have something to do with the recent linkscape updates talked about here and here. Basiclly, there have been some changes in how many sites ose is able to crawl, and how deep into the sites they crawl.
When you run a scan in OSE, you can always filter the results by "all links" ,"external", and "all links to the root domain" After you run this report try cross referencing it in Google Webmaster Tools, or Yahoo's site explorer tools.
Hope this help.

How you can manipulate your MOZ DA
I have become frustrated at MOZ in the last few months, none of my backlinks have made it into the index. Old back links. Long story short, I figured out the issue and I figured out how anyone can manipulate their DA. I wrote a blog post about it here, http://blog.dh42.com/manipulate-moz/

What's the best way to switch a campaign from sub-domain tracking to root domain tracking?
I realized after the fact that one of my campaigns also has a mobile website sub-domain that I'd like to track (ex: http://m.website.com). How can I switch this campaign over to root domain tracking without deleting everything and starting over?

Can I exclude a sub-domain from SEOMoz campaigns?
We have recently implemented a white label site that is on a sub-domain. The site employs noindex on most of the pages I imagine due to duplicate content concerns on other white label versions of the site. It has led to a spike of over 14 thousand notices on our report. Is there a way to exclude a sub-domain from the SEOMoz scans and reports?

Sub-domain not crawled
One of our sites was recently re-designed. The home page is a landing page (www.labadieauto.com) and I moved the blog to this domain (labadieauto.com/blog/) and put a link is the bottom left of the home page. Since the change the SEOMOZ campaign overview is showing only 1 page crawled. This is not setup as a sub-domain so why isn't it showing in the crawl? Help!
