Pretty basic question on how best to start using open site Explorer
-
So I have spend around a month or so with on page optimization on 25 -30 or so pages and keywords/phrases, with some half decent results…still hoping there is more to come…
I reckon now it’s time to look at getting more inbound links with Open site Explorer… Every time I look at it though I get a bit of a head ache…!
Can anyone say or point me in the right direction how I should really start using Open site Explorer ? (I have the PRO tool)
Thanks, sorry its such a simple question!

There is a Webinar later this week titled "Using SEOmoz Tools to Acquire Whitehat Links" - it may be worth tuning in for that one. There is one later in the month on the future of link building too.

OSE is really just a way to see what links OSE thinks are imporant (that are link to you). This is kind of a report. The real work is going out and getting links. OSE will not give you links, but report to you which one's you have. I really love SEObook toolbar for firefox. This shows me the links to a page and the TLD (entire domain) from OSE and also yahoo. Yahoo is also an excellent (if not better) resource for seeing all the links that are going to your site. Best ways to build links:
Guest blog posts, partnerships, produce content that people link to, articles distribution and press releases.

Alt text from an external site
We have a relevant external website that is linking to our site through an image. What ideally should the alt text of this image be? Should it just be non-commercial as generally advised with the anchor text of an external link? Or should it include where suitable relevant keywords? Keen to know people's thoughts here! Thanks.

When do backlinks start helping?
I have been working hard at getting quality backlinks but I had a lot of keywords slip in rankings this week. This may because I have been extremely busy for a week and haven't added a lot of content to my site. But I thought the backlinks would be helping. How long does it take backlinks to start boosting your site and what results should I see? I am focusing on getting backlinks from a site with a PR of 7. The others have a PR of 4-5. They are the BEST sites in my niche.

30,746 Links from One Site to Our Site
I learned this morning in our Google Webmaster Account about a website has 30,746 links to our website. Both our website and their site present information related to plastic materials, so in essence they complement one another. However, is having that massive amount of links from one site to ours a bad thing and should we use Google Disavow? Also, they have a PR3 while our site is PR5 (not sure if that matters much).

Reciprocal Link URL Question
I've been analyzing my competition and found some great directories with High DAs that require the Reciprocal code to be on the same domain as the submitted link . When I went to my competitor's website, the reciprocal link is not there. Does he/she put the link on their page, than have directory verify the code, and then remove the link? If anyone fully understands how this works, please let me know.
