Facebook "likes" not showing up in Open Site Explorer
-
Hi All:
I'm dealing with a company that has 299 Facebook likes, but Open Site Explorer only shows three. I checked the NAP on Facebook and it's correct. Anyone know why this might be happening? I'm worried if Open Site Explorer is not seeing the likes, Google might not as well, for whatever reason.
Thanks!
Wes

Thanks Keri, I think that explains it. I'll brush up on my Facebook. -W

When you put your own URL into Open Site Explorer, we're looking at that URL (such as mycompany.com) and the FB likes that URL has.
What you've given me here is the URL for your Facebook page itself, which is actually a completely different site.
Hope that explains things!

Hi Keri:
Thanks for your note. Facebook confuses me a bit, so probably easier if I just send the link: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Excelsior-Roofing-Co/144912772203952
Thanks,
Wes

Hi Brittany:
Thanks very much for your note. Good to know. I'll be sure to double check those. Hope they get it fixed on open site.
Cheers,

How many likes does your page itself have in FB? We're looking at likes of your pages/posts, not of your page on the facebook.com domain.

Wes, I'm not sure about the WHY behind the discrepancy, but I monitor Open Site Explorer for multiple websites, and the Facebook likes (and social shares in general) are never accurate.

URL column of Link Explorer reports do not have the protocol (http or https)
I exported from Link Explorer. In the URL column, there is no protocol for each URL. Isn't the protocol part of what makes a url? I'm crawling each with http:// and https:// but it feels like this info could just be in the report. Am I missing a step?

WP Events Calendar Creates URLs Too Long in Site Crawler
My travel/tourism site is on WP and using an Events plugin that ads a calendar of events to many pages. The MOZ crawler is indexing almost 46K links with a URL too long, but the site only has about 3.8K pages indexed in Google. I can tell MOZ is indexing the same pages over and over again but just adding a random calendar month and year. Here are some examples. https://www.visitcurrituck.com/four-day-stay/?full=1&long_events=1&country[0]=US&ajaxCalendar=1&mo=10&yr=2003 https://www.visitcurrituck.com/four-day-stay/?full=1&long_events=1&country%5B0%5D=US&ajaxCalendar=1&mo=10&yr=2034 https://www.visitcurrituck.com/beach-houses-family-time/?full=1&long_events=1&country%5B0%5D=US&ajaxCalendar=1&mo=1&yr=1873 Any advice on how to prevent MOZ from indexing this way? I don't believe that Google is seeing this also, but maybe they are. I just know my site has over 63K issues and I'm sure at least 75% or more is because of the way they are picking up on the events calendar. Thanks!

Low Internal Equity-Passing Links: Open Ste Explorer Issue
Does anyone know why Open Site Explorer shows so few Internal Equity Passing Links? When a page is part of the main navigation of a website and the website has over 3500 pages indexed in Google with high DA's why would the Open Site Explorer number be so low? I have run scans on other tools and see a much larger number than OSE reports. Thoughts? Has anyone else ever experienced that?

Open Site Explorer Messge - Mysite.com redirects to www.mysite.com
Hello All, When I plug in my site's URL http://mysite.com ( Not my actual URL of-course) into the OpenSiteExplorer tool I get the following message: "You entered the URL http://Mysite.com which redirects to http://www.Mysite.com/.
Link Explorer | | jjimen03
Because it's likely to have more accurate metrics, we're showing data for the redirected URL instead.
Click here to analyze http://Mysite.com instead?" Not sure why I am getting this message. On my hosting server, I have defined my preferred domain to be the non-www. version. I have also used a Canonical Tag on Mysite.com/index.html file ( ). In addition, on Google Search Console ( Webmaster Tools ) , I have added both the www. and non-www. properties, where on both property settings, I have defined the non-www. version as my preferred one. Also, on my server, I have not implemented any 301 redirects at all. So my questions are: Why am I receiving this message when plugging in my non-www. URL version of my website into OpenSiteExplorer? Is my DA or PA possibly being split up between the two versions as a result? Should I be concerned? How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.0 -
Site Mark-up is Abnormally Small
My site www.brightonsoundsystem.co.uk has been optimised for speed so I have minimised the code needed. Now if I put it through the OSE spam analysis it has a flag for "Site Mark-up is Abnormally Small". What ratio of visible text compared to mark-up code is being used to trigger this flag. Also as this is the only flag I have is ti worth the time fixing.

Open Site Explorer results are not satisfactory.. is there any issue with it?
Hello Folks, I am trying to check back links of one of my competitors through Open Site Explorer, but the results it is providing is not satisfactory. Competitor URL : goo.gl/xMXHk7 Results provided by OSE : Number of Internal Links : 23 Number of External Links : 100 While the external backlinks provided by other free tools are quite different and more in numbers.. and here I am paying to get accurate data.. Just wanted to confirm whether I am using this tool improperly, or any issue is going with this tool? C6JPxGE
