External links incorrect
-
Hello, My 'air intelligence' campaign is indicating my site has no external links, but I know from Google analytics that there is over a 1000 links.
How long should I expect SEOmoz to take to discover all the links.

I have also seen the Moz system need time to find links after I added a new site to a campaign recently however also be aware that as vast as SEOmoz's data set is, it's not the entire web.
And in reality, no single link reporting solution in existence currently (even Google's) is going to show you all of the links that might be pointing to your site.

Hi Patricia,
OSE (Open Site Explorer) usually updates once a month, meaning it's always a little bit behind - it also suffered a problem with the index a little while ago (which is now resolved I think), but you should start seeing links in OSE within a month or two.
Hope that helps!

When conducting a link building strategy does it matter the country the link is from?
We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us. The links are from relevant websites and topics. Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

Link Exchange
Is link exchange always bad? What if I want to add a link for other related products on my site which I do not offer, and the other site does the same for me? Will it be better to rather an article for each other product and link to somebody, than have one page with a list of other products to other sites. For example. We do training. Lets say we offer computer training. We search companies that does health and safety training offer to put their course on our site with a link to them, if they do the same.

Is it worth it to link to sites that link to you in guest posts?
Suppose you published a guest post on a quality site and you link to a previous guest post you have written for another site (which links to you). In theory you could send link juice to the page that links to you for a second order effect. Has anyone seen results from this tactic?

The Value Of A Link
Hi There, Let's say I am able to get a link from a very well trust worthy blog that writes abot things related to my business. Now my question is how much value does another link with the same anchor text, from the same blog has compared to the first link, or compared to a new link from a slightly less powerfull blog? Or in another words, if I got 1 link from this great website should I invest my time to find another website where I can get a link from or should I invest it in getting another link from the website I already got a link from ( which might be easier)?
