How long before new links show up in OSE?
-
Hi - How long should it be before a brand new external link to our site shows up in OSE?
-
I normally work on around 60 days (or two runs of the crawler)

Tcolling
OSE is updated roughly every 4 to 5 weeks. The next update will be the 27th of this month. Once it is out, I would suggest that it could be the update after that if your link was fairly recent. OSE crawls all the time now, but the data must be parsed, then the update is put out. So, if you got the link three weeks ago, it is still unlikely you would see the link in this update.
The update schedule is here: Linkscape Schedule
Here is a good post by Rand on Linkscape and OSE.

Get into Google : New Sites
I have a brand new website. It was created 10 days ago. How long would it take for it to show up in search results? I understand that since the site is new, there are no sites sending it backlinks. Also, i have optimized the page for my keyword "xyz" and it received an A grade. The site does not figure even in the top 50 results. Please help me out. It is a one page web application that needs to drive traffic to survive.

What are Spammy Back Links
My site was hit by Penguin 2, where I lost 40% of traffic. People keep talking about spammy links but I've made none of those for my site. So how can I analyse my site and find out which links are hurting me. Can it be done with SEOMOZ software? What do I look for? I used Site Explorer and most of my links are to relevant websites. Is there a penalty for being in somebody else's blogroll even if I was added naturally and their site is a high ranking (PR4) and relevant site? All the links to my site coming from forums are no-follow. Could it be my own website? How do I check that? I have no clue what to look for. Thanks

Open Site Explorer Link Metrics
I'm new to SEOMOZ. I have a Pro account and have been messing with the tools available. I ran a report in Open Site Explorer on one of my prospects. I also entered in several of their competitors to see how they rank. I would like to show the report to my prospective client but couldn't figure out how to download the information. Is that info available for download? Does anyone have a recommendation for showing prospects how they rank against their competitors. Any help appreciated.

Links don't add up
Sorry if this is obvious, but I'm new to seomoz. I've run an analysis for one of my pages and it's showing 624 total links - 118 internal and 6 external. Why doesn't the sum of the internal and external links equal the total links?

Is canonical link enough?
Hi SEOmozers! I have a question. SEOmoz analysis report me some duplicate that I thought I had fix. I can give a concrete example. This page: http://www.nuxeo.com/en/about/events/dec2011training-boston/moreinfo is reported as having 6 duplicated URL in the tool. When I click on 6, SEOMOZ tells me "Our crawl bots are getting their joints greased to fetch you even better data. Sorry for the delay!" And on the page itself, I placed a canonical link to follow recommandation. rel="canonical" href="http://www.nuxeo.com/en/about/events/apr2012training-boston" /> As a result I am curious why I would have this reported as duplicate by SEOmoz. Is this a bug? Thanks for feedback!

What are no followed links?
Hi there, probably this is so self explaining that I didn't find it described in the tutorial about learning to use PRO or here in Q&Α. But remember, there is no dumb question 🙂 What are the followed vs no followed links? I understand followed links as backlinks to my site, but what is a no followed link? Thank you in advance!

Competitive link finder not working
Hi guys, I just wanted to check the status of the Competitive Link Finder. I've been trying to use it for well over a week, literally trying it every day and every single time I get the "we may be a little busy" message. Are there any plans to upgrade it? I realise its a labs tool, but its actually a really useful tool which I just don't seem to be able to benefit from whatsoever. Would love to hear what the plans for this tool are. Thanks Al
