Question about OSE
-
Just registered, so please excuse my ignorance. How can you get your competitors' recent backlinks using OSE? Thank you!
-
Thank you a lot for the reply. I was hoping to see an option that does that built inside OSE, but nevertheless this is a helpful answer.

There isn't currently an option to filter reports by date. If you want to sue OSE data for that sort of thing then you need to keep a record of your competitor's current links on a monthly basis. So if you download it now and then again after the next update you can compare the two.

OSE Inconsistency??
Hi, I started doing an analysis of a competitor's link profile. OSE says that they have 4000+ links. And when I download the CSV file it lists over 1800 external links. However, when I click on the "Compare Link Metrics" tab it says they only have 4 external links. From the CSV file I can tell that a LOT of the links are spammy blog post type links. But a few (more than 4) are very strong external sites. So is the Compare Link Metrics report just wrong, or am I just not interpreting the information correctly. Appreciate the feedback!

How does OSE count Total Links?
I'm trying out Market Samurai & OSE for gauging SEO competition. When I try both the tools for giving backlink count for a specific page then I'm seeing remarkable difference. Hence I need to know how OSE calculates "Total Links" for a page & how can we be sure that it is true?

Manta inbound link in OSE - competitor site yes, my site no, why?
Our site has had a link back to our site from Manta for a long time, but it's not appearing in our OSE results. One of our competitors similarly has an inbound link from Manta and that link DOES appear in their OSE results. I'm not certain whether that matters for us. Does it? But in any event, why would the one link appear but not the other? Thanks! Tim

Important link building question for me!
Hi, When building backlinks how important is the location of where the website resides? For example, if I was targeting a search term in Google UK, will link building from websites hosted on UK servers have a higher positive impact on rankings then building links from websites hosted on US servers? Lets say in the above UK hosted is better, what if you have 2 websites hosted in the UK but one with .com and one with .co.uk, I take it from a domain point of view the .co.uk will have a better impact on SERP's then the .com. Now looking at the above from a more wider scale lets say I have the following: A .co.uk website aimed at a search term in Google UK. Example: 1. 100 backlinks from websites hosted in the US with .com extension. 2. 100 backlinks from websites hosted in the UK with .co.uk extension. Is it a FACT that number 2 will 100% be more beneficial in UK rankings? Cheers

Question about Keywords & Ranking
I hope this isn't too basic of a question, but I am confused about something. If you use the Keyword Research tool and type in "Stained Concrete Flooring", the 3rd result (stainedconcrete.org) has the lowest numbers of any of the sites in the top 8-10... Is it because they have a large amount of traffic? or is there some other factor that I am missing?

Google locations question for organic search...
If you set your Google location to "Dallas, TX" and you do a search for "web design dallas", my client shows up #4. If you change your google location to anywhere else in the US, he is #1. How can I be #1 in Dallas and the US? (My client is not really in Dallas but I didn't want to give away the city, their site, etc)
