Inbound links that does not appear in open site explorer
-
There are several links to my website that are old, and are not indexed to locate in Open Site Explorer. Which may be the problem from appearing? This is shown in webmaster tools

Completely agree with everything said here except for the "OSE = quality, webmaster tools = quantity" bit... Maybe we redefine it as OSE is simply not as good/consistent or as reliable as webmaster tools? Just maybe.

Hi Hector!
Old links generally do not stay in our index or will get picked up unless we can discover or re-discover those links from currently crawled pages. OSE is based on freshness so we would need to discover NEW pages that are still linking to your links. If they are old links and are now too deep from the home pages of those sites, we will not likely pick them up. After each index release we start from 0 links and crawl are way down from sites with high domain authority and those seeded from these sites are generally re-crawled and discovered.
OSE = quality, webmaster tools = quanity
Hope this helps!

Open site Explorer Facebook Shares
In open site explorer I have been trying to increase my Facebook Shares and likes. I recently posted my URL and got over 150 likes but none of that has been showing up in open site explorer. I noticed my profile was set to private so I went back and made sure it was public and the shared link was public but nothing. Can anybody explain to me what exactly the Facebook share is measuring? Because the explanation it gives me isn't working for some reason. Perhaps it takes a bit longer for Facebook measure than Twitter or Google Plus, but it has been a few days and I would expect it to have registered by now. Any help would be great. If it helps you can help check it out. My URL is http://www.baselinedental.com Thanks!

OnPage Grader double counting keywords on responsive site (hidden vs visible)
FYI - it appears that if you have a responsive site that has blocks of text that are duplicated, but Hidden or Visible depending on the screen width, that On-Page Grader will count any keywords in that text twice. I have text shown in one location to Desktop users that needed to be re-located to a different part of the page for Tablet and Phone users to keep the layout nice. And my OP Grader keyword count doesn't match what I saw on the page doing Ctrl-F to find the keywords, unless you count the Hidden text. (not hidden like cloaking or some black hat thing - just not displayed on certain devices) I guess On Page Grader just reads the source code and ignores whether the text is hidden or visible. It would be nice if it read the code as if it was a Desktop device. (suggestion for Moz staff) Does anybody know if Google also ignores device dependent Hidden vs Visible areas???

External Followed Links report
I would like to know, how do I get a report with the TOTAL amount of my external followed links.When I look on "Link Metric" it shows me: External Followed Links 2,951
Link Explorer | | AutoEuropeBut when I looked on Inbound links (only follow / only external), it shows me only 645. Why is that and how do I get the total from 2.951?
Thanks
