Solved Moz Link Explorer slow to find external links
-
I have a site with 48 linking domains and 200 total links showing in Google Search Console. These are legit and good quality links.
Since creating a campaign 2 months ago, Moz link explorer for the same site only shows me 2 linking domains and 3 total links.
I realise Moz cannot crawl with the same speed and depth as Google but this is poor performance for a premium product and doesn't remotely reflect the link profile of the domain.
Is there a way to submit a sitemap or list of links to Moz for the purpose of crawling and adding to Link Explorer?

Is there a way to submit a sitemap or list of links to Moz for the purpose of crawling and adding to Link Explorer?Yes, Moz offers a feature called "Link Tracking Lists" that allows users to submit a list of URLs for tracking in Link Explorer. Here's how you can do it:
Log in to your Moz account and navigate to the "Link Explorer" tool.
Click on "Add a New Tracking List" or "Create a New List" (depending on the interface).
Enter a name for your tracking list and add the URLs you want to track. You can enter individual URLs or upload a CSV file containing a list of URLs.
Once you've added the URLs, Moz will begin crawling and tracking those links in Link Explorer.
Keep in mind that while this feature allows you to track specific URLs, it may not guarantee immediate or comprehensive coverage of all links. Moz's crawling capabilities may vary compared to search engines like Google.
By utilizing the Link Tracking Lists feature, you can submit specific URLs or a list of links to Moz for crawling and inclusion in Link Explorer, which can provide additional insights into your site's link profile beyond what is automatically discovered by Moz's regular crawling process.

Even though Moz's tool doesn't search websites as thoroughly or quickly as Google does, the fact that it's not showing all your links is worrying.

How to index e-commerce marketplace product pages
Hello! We are an online marketplace that submitted our sitemap through Google Search Console 2 weeks ago. Although the sitemap has been submitted successfully, out of ~10000 links (we have ~10000 product pages), we only have 25 that have been indexed. I've attached images of the reasons given for not indexing the platform. gsc-dashboard-1 gsc-dashboard-2 How would we go about fixing this?

Unsolved Why am I not seeing search.yahoo.com in my site's backlink profile?
When looking at the backlinks for a client's competitor I found that they had a backlink on search.yahoo.com/reviews and our domain (harmonyhit.com) did not. I was using the Link Explorer tool. However, when I go to yahoo Search I see that the website of harmonyhit.com is indexed in Yahoo search and has links to the site. Also, it's sitemap has been recently crawled in Bing webmaster tools which Yahoo uses. Why does our client have the backlink accounted for and we do not?

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 -

Open Site Explorer doesn't show local directories or citation links?
Why is it that when I run a link analysis for my local business sites I don't see any links from Yelp, Google+, Facebook, any local citations? Regardless of them being follow or no follow isn't the hyperlink to a website from a Yelp profile considered a link? Same with any other local business directory? I know the company is listed on a few dozen because I can see it manually but it's not showing up in Moz? Why is it that all local directories and citations with website are omitted? And since it is not there, where is a good place to go to discover these things? I have tried whitespark. It was okay but honestly I wasn't terribly impressed. The data was good, the UI was just okay, but with smaller clients it was an initial check and then very occasional checks that needed to happen. We would go months without using it.
