Why Historical Domain Analysis is not updated for almost 2 months?
-
This is one of the most important areas of SeoMoz to see if you are making any progress or not. Unfortunately it is not updated since 2/28/12 and today is 4/18/12. What's happenning?

Hi Mcarle, I'm Rob - I built Linkstant.
Linkstant monitors for clicks on a link to your site that it hasn't seen before.
If you put the Linkstant code on a new site, or just on new pages, then you'll only know about new links.
If you put the code on pages that have been around for a while and have a bunch of links already, then I'm afraid it will alert you when it discovers those old links for a while.
You could consider turning off the email alerts for a time, while it discovers all those old links, or you might just chose to the put the code on new content.
Hope this helps; let me know if you have any other questions!
Rob

It's ok, I added a thumbs up for you

How exactly does this tool work?
Does it send you updates with NEW links to your site?
or
Does it send you messages when someone CLICKS an old link to your site?
I just got a few messages about "new" links but they have been on other sites for months...
I can't find any text that clarifies this on the website.

Hey Sha, awesome tool, and the first I've heard of it. I'll definitely be implementing it ASAP. If I could give you two thumbs I would
Thanks again.

Hi Pol360,
Excellent answer from Anthony and big thumbs up!
If you are looking for a tool that will let you know when you have new links, you might want to take a look at Linkstant, a cool tool put together by Tom Critchlow & Rob Ousbey from SEO consulting company Distilled.
You won't get all of the Moz metrics available in Open Site Explorer once the Index is updated, but in the meantime you will at least know instantly when new links are created
Hope that helps,
Sha

HI Pol,
You can check out the Linkscape Update Schedule here:
http://apiwiki.seomoz.org/w/page/25141119/Linkscape%20Schedule
Looks like April 27th is the day. You're not the only one holding your breath, I promise! But with the next index including over 100 billion URLs for the first time, I'm sure SEOMoz has a few kinks to work out.
Also here's a very in depth explanation of the reason for the delayed update, which was originally planned for April 6th:

Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Anthony

When is the Chrome MOZ-toolbar going to be updated? It flaws into other website designs.
Hey, The MOZ toolbar destroys the layout of a lot of sites, which makes it very annoying always switching from top to buttom, then back up, etc. from website to website. This doesn't happen here, but on really a lot of other websites.

This shouldn't take that much time to fix, could it? Please let me know when we could expect an upgrade, or at least let us know, that you are aware of the problem. Regards,

Find Historical SERP Ranking for a Term?
Is there any way to find out what pages ranked for a given term historically? I.e. what were the top 10 search results for "Widgets" 6 months ago, 1 year ago, 2 years ago? If I had a campaign tracking that term, I'd be able to look back, but I do not. Does this data exist anywhere in a format that could be queried?

How are our competitors getting these inbound linking domains?
I'm currently managing SEO for my company's website, and I'm getting into link building for the first time. As part of the process, I'm using Open Site Explorer to see who's linking into our competitor sites, to get a better sense of what's available to us in our particular avenue of e-commerce. However, I'm finding that our competitors are getting inbound links from high-authority sites pretty far afield from selling jewelry - census.gov, parallels.com, warnerbros.com, and others. I try clicking through to these links, but each link starts a download of a file. I've seen .f4v, .7z, and .apk files listed as inbound links to our competitor. How is this happening? Again, I'm new to link building, so there may be a simple answer here, and if so I apologize for asking. However, this seems really strange to me, and a difficult situation to confront.

Page Authority vs Domain Authority
I'm hoping this is a quick and simple question. Sometimes when using the open site explorer or the keyword difficulty tool i find that some pages have a higher "page authority" than the "domain authority." That seemed odd to me, is there a correlation between the two? You would think by default as you grow your page authority the domain authority increases as well? So i guess my question would be, what happens on a page to give it a higher page authority than domain authority?
