What is the delay of link insertion in Open Site Explorer?
-
Hello,
Someone know the delay for links insertion in Open Site Explorer? Because i know my site have a lot more links who are not in OSE.
Thanks.

We're certainly working on crawling more and more deeply I'd say we'll have between 35-75% of the links that Google knows about (depending on where you're getting your links from - if it's low quality stuff, especially deep pages on spammyish pages, it's less likely).
In terms of delay in picking up new links - if you got a link today, it would likely be in the Jan. 4th index (because we're actively crawling for that index and haven't started processing). However, it's also possible that we've already crawled that part of the web in the last week or two and it wouldn't be until the next index (late January/early February).
Thus, anywhere from 20 (at the very fastest) to 60 days (at the very worst) is the speed of OSE's pickup of links.

Thanks!

I too was wondering the logistics of the update. Thanks for the info.

SEOMoz works with a calender, so you can see for yourself. When selecting Open Site Explorer from the Research Tools below on the left you'll see the last time it was updated (28th of November) and also you'll see the update Calender. Next Linkscape update (= OSE) will occur at the 4ht of January.
Furthermore don't expect all your links to be in OSE, however most of them will be. It's a great tool for comparisation and see where the competitors are getting their strength from but again it's a wish ALL your links would be in there. Hope this helps.

If someone were to link to our site on now on an old article (dating back 1-2 years) is that still beneficial if all other variables are good?
I'm trying to build up our external links and am finding lots of opportunities, some of which are on older articles dating back to 2014, 2013 etc. These pieces are relevant to our site and have high DA, I'm wondering if the post date of these articles matter? Thanks!

What is a good ratio of total links to linking root domains?
Is 100 total links for every linking domain too high? I suppose I could also look at ratios of sites that are doing well in the rankings.

Linking back to a high authority site
I have an odd situation. One of our most powerful links comes from a not-for-profit whom we have an advertisement with. That ad gets us half of our business. Recently, they slipped for the term that got them the traffic that flowed to our site. I was thinking of linking back to that page to boost them up a bit. Their page is a deep page on a high authority domain with only a few links. I am an authority site for my niche. I'd like to boost them up without diminishing my rank for other related terms. I'm willing to consider linking to them from my homepage, blog or link page. To play it safe I could just link build to them from outside my domain. Can I just link to them and its not a big deal?

Over 47.000 inbound links from one site - can it hurt my rankings?
Im currently having some banner commercials on a relatively large Danish forum. I talked the forum owner into maing the banner "dofollow" so i could get the "juice" from the site, however im in doubt if this is good or bad for my SEO. Webmaster tools is telling me that i now have over 47.000 links from this forum. it seems like a Lot of links considering that i only have external links from about 5 other sites and the fact that my site is quite new. It seems like my site is not ranked very good yet(as mentioned in another question). I hope someone has some input 🙂 Best reguards

Simple Open Site Explorer Question
Does domain and page authority as listed in the Open Site Explorer mean that that site is relevant (content subject wise) or is domain/page authority separate from relevance? In other words, I'm less interested in getting an 81 domain authority link if it has nothing to do with my site's subject matter. Could someone please explain? I haven't yet found the answer. Thanks.
