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

Website data updates
Hello All, I have downloaded some reports for "following" links from SEO Moz and no doubt the report is very comprehensive. However, I know some links listed in the reports does have rel="nofollow" tag attached to it but it is list still shown that they are following links. Can some please guide be to understand why this has happened. Is it possible that SEO Moz has old data of our site because these changes were recently done (2-3 weeks before)..? OR Have I misunderstood following as dofollow..? Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks, moosa.

How do I fix a duplicate content error with a top level domain?
Hi, I'm getting a duplicate content error from the SEOmoz crawler due to an issue with trailing slashes. It's showing www.milengo.com and www.milengo.com/ as having duplicate page titles. However I'm pretty sure this has been fixed in the .htaccess file since if you type in the domain with a trailing slash it automatically redirects to the domain without a trailing slash, so this shouldn't be an issue. I'm stuck here. Any ideas? Thanks. Rob

Competitive analysis of inbound links
I am trying to figure out how to best use SeoMoz tools to do some competitive analysis of inbound links. With the site explorer tool I can "compare Link Metrics" I see that a competitor is beating me on External Followed Links and Total Linking Root domains. I want to dig further into this data and see how these are distributed. What I am really after is which root domains are sending them the most links. Knowing that 20k of their links are coming from 5 specific root urls would be great to know. Is there anywhere that I can see this data. Ideal column headers would be: Linking Root Domain of Followed Links (from this root domain) Linking Domain Authority The ability to drill down from there into specific links would be mind blowing. Is there any way to browse this type of data in SeoMoz?

How often does Organic Traffic Data update?
The latest traffic I see is from week ending 2nd Jan 2011, this seems an overally long time to wait for a traffic update, given that tools such as Raven can provide live stats.
