What is taking OSE so long to update?
The update schedule said the next update was going to be on Dec 28th.
If you open OSE it says "Last Index Update: November 28th, 2011"Today in January 1st. Any thoughts as to why the delay?
-
We generally update the Linkscape index once a month. There were two releases in November (one at the very end), and then there will be one this week. It's a little later than usual because of the downtime for the holidays. The Calendar that Jgower shared will always show you the upcoming release date and the previous release dates.

It is generally around every quarter or 3 months from my memory. Perhaps try getting SEO Moz staff to answer this.

I think what you saw was todays date highlited, because it has been the 4th Jan for a few weeks at least.

Thanks!
They changed that since I looked the other night. December 28th has stuck in my head like a brick.
It will really be cool if they could ever build a "real time" backlink checker. -

How Long Do The Link Tracking Lists Take To Update?
Hi, How long do the link tracking lists take to update? It's been over a week and each is still showing a red cross. The reason I created it was because I migrated to a new domain name and Moz is still showing the backlinks on the old property and not the new (the domain swap happened in December 2020). I can see that Ahrefs has picked up all of the links - Both new and redirected - but Moz has not. When will this be reflected in Moz as it has already been over three months? Is there a reason for the above questions? I appreciate any response here. 🙂

How often does Moz data update when leveraging it through Supermetrics for Datastudios?
Good Afternoon, A pretty straightforward question: How often does Moz data update when leveraging it through Super-metrics for Data studios? I noticed that the "time last crawled" metric had some URLs not crawled in over 2 months... wondering if there's a way to speed it up on Moz's end.

Site Explorer shows links as followable but they have nofollow tags
Hello, I am looking at site explorer and sites linking to my site moneyfact.co.uk. I've got thousands of links showing as 'followable' but when i check them they have rel="nofollow" tags. e.g: http://www.dianomioffers.co.uk/partner/moneyfacts.co.uk/brochures.epl?partner=93&partner_id=93&partner_variant_id=33 Why would they show as followable when the links are nofollowed? Thanks Steve

Does Open Site Explorer violate Google's Terms of service?
According to Google's Webmaster Guidelines: "Don't use unauthorized computer programs to submit pages, check rankings, etc. Such programs consume computing resources and violate our Terms of Service." Does that mean Open Site Explorer is a violation of those Terms of Service, or is it authorized?

Canonical issue in open site explorer
When I look at my back links in OSE, I see two landing pages on my site that are really the same page. www.mysite.com/ and www.mysite.com/(affiliate code here) These show different inbound link characteristics and page authority. The page in question has a rel=canonical tag. Am I doing something wrong?
