Linking Domains - Missing
-
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if someone could help me. I keep reviewing my linking domains as I'm expecting a link back from an awards website that I recently sponsored / partnered. However its just not showing. I can see the link on their site and I can see that the other partners links are being tracked when I look at them in Open Site Explorer. I've got a couple of occurrences of this I'm and confused as to why?
Thanks for your help!

Thanks Tom,
That's fantastic! I really appreciate your help on that!

Good news! Both domains appear in MajesticSEO and Ahrefs. I've screen grabbed Majestic.
I imagine these will pop up in your OSE profile in the next update too. But they're there and passing strength. Good job!

Thank you that's very kind, i'd really appreciate that!
Our url is: www.agencyexpress.co.uk
The linking urls are: http://www.theestas.com/partners/ and http://www.redstones.co.uk/office-locations/brentwood/useful-information/trusted-suppliers
We don't have many but it's something I'm working on.
Thanks again Tom!

Hi Naomi, if you'd like me to quickly check whether or not the link is showing in Majestic/Ahrefs, let me know your URL and the link URL, as I have access to both tools. Either post here or send me a PM.

Hi,
Thank you that's very helpful! OSE not yet updated might be the case for one, however all the sponsors went on the site at the same time. I will check again after the next update. The other link is older. In that case they have linked us from an image. So maybe that's the problem.
I will check out the other tools for sure!
Thanks Again
Naomi

Hi there
If the page is being crawled by OSE (as shown by the link appearing in your competitors' link profile), it's probably a case of the link not being found yet by OSE for you.
OSE only updates once a month, with the next update due tomorrow in fact. You can see the update history and future update dates here. So, judging by that if your link was placed after June 20th, and possibly a couple of days before to account for processing time, that would be the reason why it has not shown up yet.
If you placed the link well before then, it might be more of an issue with the link itself or OSE showing an error. You can check to see if the link is showing up with a couple of other tools, such as MajesticSEO, Ahrefs (paid options) or OpenLinkProfiler (free).
Hope this helps.

How to download full list of internal links properly with OSE?
Hi Moz Community, I am having issues getting a full list of my internal links when I go to the Open Site Explorer. When I export the internal links into excel, I am getting half of my URLs and 80% of what I am getting is absolutely crazy URLs that are super super old. Plus, these old URLs are not even showing in my campaign crawls. So the crawls themselves are different. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, since I am trying to get a full picture on the internal link structure of my site. Thanks!

How can I tell what pages have links TO this page?
Hello, Mozzers! My client has a rather messy situation, with redirects for HTTP vs. HTTPS, and two different home pages, both in subdirectories. I could explain the whole setup, but I don't think it's relevant for my question, which is this: OSE is showing three links to the page in question, but doesn't tell me WHAT those links are. Am I just missing the information somewhere? Please see screenshot for details. Thanks so much! ~ Scott view?usp=sharing

How does spammy linked site have zero spam score?
I came across a law firm site with hundreds of horrible spam links to it. Of the 3330 links, all but 231 links have anchor text that has to do with "jordan 11s for sale". I'm trying to see how useful the moz spam score is, but clearly it's not reliable if this site has a score of zero. Many of the obviously spammy sites linking to it also have low to zero spam scores, although there are plenty in the 5-10 range. (see attached image). I also noticed that many sites were legit sites, but if you look at the source code, there's tons of hidden spam links in the code (e.g., www.chickasawgardens.net) Why would this site have a zero spam score? If you're curious, put it into open site explorer and have a look. It's a law firm based in Pennsylvania, most anchor text has to do with jordan sneakers and most links are foreign: penn-criminallawyers.com Is the spam score too lenient? Is the moz tool unable to find spam links coming from legitimate sites with hidden spam links? DrokMbP

Internal links - OpenSiteExplorer vs Webmaster tools
Hi guys, I run Opensiteexplorer on the website www.fazland.com (in italian...). (https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/comparisons?site=www.fazland.com) It only shows ca 240 internal links where I know there are plenty more also shown in Google Webmaster Tools. I cannot figure out why it can crawl so few links - Google shows 79.000 links found and internal links are pretty well established. Any suggestions from your experience on this difference? Cheers, Rob

Why does the number of the total external links and the followed linking root domains between Open site explorer and the campaign in Moz pro doesn't match?
Opensiteexplorer returns 52.473 total external links and 715 followed linking root domains while my campaign in Moz analytics return 35.899 total external links and 1092 followed linking root domains. Does anyone knows how this is possible?

How can I use Open Site Explorer to Identify why my own URL's are appearing as inbound links
I'm a new member of Moz, and am trying to understand why I am seeing my sites URL's in my Inbound Link results in Open Site Explorer. There are quite a few, and they are all product category URL's that are generated by my stores database. This is not happening with .html URL's. Any thoughts?

Open Site Explorer Only showing 2 Internal Links
Hi, for some reason Open Site Explorer only shows 2 internal links linking to our homepage (and other pages). When looking at a competitors site, they have thousands of internal links to their homepage! Are there any reasons why OSE is only showing 2 for our site, when in fact there are hundreds and thousands? Thanks.

Inbound Links Sorted by Linking Domain
Hi All -- Does anyone know if it is possible to generate a report (or is there a setting) to have the OSE inbound links report sorted by OSE linking domain? Ideally, the report would create a second column in the "Inbound Links" report with "Linking Domain" and then you could create a nice report that cross-tabbed the links. While you could do some excel text manipulation to do this, does anyone know if it's possible to do through the report generator? Thanks, Matt
