How do you check for .gov and .edu backlinks using the new link explorer?
-
I'm trying to do an audit but I can't seem to figure out how to find .edu and .gov backlinks from the new link explorer. Can someone please help? I'm trying to learn how as open site explorer will be replaced by the link explorer.
Thank you!

It shouldn't take too long to generate

I guess that's the easiest way to do it. It just takes time to generate so I looked for other ways. Thanks anyway.

Yes, I did try the Ctrl + F but I was looking for a faster process since I can only view about 50 rows and if this certain site has thousands of linking domains then I'd have to click next and do the search command for each page. Thanks for your help by the way!

Following on from Nicholas's answer. Once you are in the 'Linking Domains' section you can also choose to export as a CSV should you have numerous linking domains and search that way
Let me know if you have any other questions!

One way to do it is to enter whatever you are URL you are plugging into the Link Explorer, then go to "Linking Domains" on the left-hand menu. Once there you can do a "Command + F", or whatever the search command is on your computer, and then search .gov or .edu to see if the URL you typed in has an .edu or .gov links pointing to it.
Although I would start with Moz's Link Explorer, this may be a good link search to cross-reference with Ahrefs, as they will show you if the Domain has any .gov or .edu links in the general overview once you enter a URL to analyze.

Open Site Explorer Top Pages https Title tag issue
Hello, everybody. I've noticed this strange thing in Top Pages reporting of Open Site Explorer. If i do a report for any website which doesn't have security certificate installed, such as http://www.hyperlinksmedia.com I get normal results, with title tag shown for every page, but, if i do a report for website with Security certificate, such as https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com, report is coming back for non-secure URL version (http:...), so, it says "No Title" for any pages. I wonder, if it influence PA and DA scores. Although, if i run full crawl test, then i shows all meta and title tags for SSL version of a website's url. Thanks!
