Recent backlinks in Open Site Explorer as not showing
-
I saw the note today that the link index did it's monthly update, yet our site www.oznappies.com still only shows 1 linking root domain and I know there are many more links now.
What do I need to do to get open Site Explorer to use the latest data?
I enter our site, create the report and only see old information from 6 may 2011's link index.
I have the same issue with competive link finder, links I know we have on the sites listed for our competitors are not showing for our site.

Perhaps it was cached in your browser?

Mine still says Last Linkscape index update: 05/06/2011
It's possible more updates are to come**.** I would check back again tomorrow**.**

Recently the index has been updated monthly.
You can see the last time Open Site Explorer was updated, in the bottom left hand corner, currently says 'Last Index Update: Jun 6th, 2011' and 'Next Index Update: July 2011'

The linkdiagnosis tool was very helpful - Thanks.

Our reports still show 5-06-11, so I assume we are all still waiting. You can use several free back link tools to see if your links are indexed. Try link diagnosis.com ( you need firefox and the plug in) or link back watch. Links will show up there pretty fast (same day if Google indexed it). Google web master as well of course, and yahoo site explorer.

the seomoz crawler is very conservative and will take a while to pick up on links. This has both good and bad aspects. Don't worry though you can always check in Google's webmaster tools for backlinks to your site.
It usually takes 1-2 months for the mozcrawler to find links to my sites. If you are impatient you can try pinging the links with something like pingomatic.com although i am not sure if the mozcrawler listens to those signals or not....

How to set up Rel=canonical in Joomla based sites
I've built a few sites using joomla (please don't tell me I should be using wordpress!!) and wondered how I can add the rel-canonical to these pages. I'm assuming it would come as a plugin or module but can't seem to find anything that works right for me. Anyone any ideas? Thanks in advance, Gordon

Why is OSE showing no data for this URL?
Hi all, Does anyone have any ideas as to why OSE might not have any data for this URL: http://www.ccisolutions.com/StoreFront/product/shure-slx24-sm58-wireless-microphone-system-j3 It is not a new page at all. It's been on the site for years. Is OSE being quirky? Or is there an underlying problem with this page? Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this, Dana

Big changes in site titles
So as I pour though some of the diagnostics data for over 100,000 pages of my site I see thousands of page title that "could" be changed. Could this cause some lost traffic for a while due to the big changes?

How reliable are the external link metrics found in the Open Site Explorer research tool?
I have noticed huge discrepancies with the external link metrics of one of the websites that I have been tracking since the launch of the website. Shortly after launch I captured a screenshot of the external link metrics to the website to track the progress. As I look at the same Open Site Explorer metrics now (2 months later) it has increased by 900% which is very inconsistent with the amount of link building done for the client. Thanks!

OSE Backlink results - reported link not actually there?
Not a complaint, but a question to understand how the research tool operates: When I run backlink checks on websites, often the reported link is not only not on the page, but it's not found anywhere on the site. I use several tools to search for the link url as well as for the keyword. Why does the tool report a link is there, but I cannot find the links in some cases? Is there a lag in the information the tool is using, making it not quite up to date, or is it something else? Thanks much!

How to tell OSE about new backlinks
I've recently obtained some great backlinks from popular news sites but OSE hasn't picked up on them yet. Is there a way to "show" OSE what's happened, or do I just have to wait?
