            Greg,

            Thanks so much for following up. I applaud your effort in this, and am sorry to hear that posting to GMB didn't do the trick.

            Silly question, possibly, but just in case  -- have you used Google Search Console to ensure that your page containing backlinks is being indexed?

            Best,
            Zack

              We suggest you to be active in social networks and publish your site content in them.
              This will allow you to increase the strength of your site over time and even increase the speed of the index.
              If you do not know how to manage social networks, we have fully explained on the following page:

                Hi Zack,

                bad news...I've posted a few links on Google's My Business account, but - a week later - these backlinks are still not showing up in the Google console.

                Nice idea, worth a try, but does not seem to work - for me at least.

                Cheers,

                Greg

                  Hi Gary,

                  that's good advice, and thanks for taking the time to respond.

                  This question is about backlinks, and helping Google to find those backlinks. Your advice will influence other sites to set up backlinks, but could you please help us understand how these points 1-4 could help Google take note of those new backlinks?

                  All the best,

                  Greg

                    I’d suggest looking at the following:1) Review the site architecture, are all of the URL’s that aren’t indexed easily accessible?2) have you correctly configured your sitemaps.3) is your robots.txt file blocking any pages or category of pages.4) Have utilised internal linking where possible to help search engines index your pages?

                      Hi Zack,

                      I've not had a Google Business account, since that's primarily for bricks-n-mortar...but I've applied for one now. May take a few days to get verified, but I'll try your suggestion and let you know.

                      Cheers,

                        Hi Greg,

                        Yes, no problem at all.

                        From within your Google My Business profile, you can see the "Your latest post" section, and click the "Create post" button. Hope this helps! (Please let me know your findings if you don't mind!)

                        Much appreciated,

                            This may or may not help, but to chime in, I have heard of SEOs posting pages in Google updates and social media posts to help it get picked up faster. If you try this, can you let me know how that goes?

                            Thanks,

                                Hi all,

                                I've got the exact same question!

                                Hi Dave - thanks for the pointer to that article. However, what I (and I'm guessing the OP) would really like is to inform Google about new backlinks to my site.

                                I've created a "backlinks" page on my website listing these but does that look spammy? Would this approach hinder rather than help?

                                What is the best way to tell Google about new backlinks? All guidance much appreciated!

                                Many thanks,

                                Greg

                                PS This related artivle is also really good, but not quite what I'm after:

Right now I'm looking at exporting a spreadsheet with 3.3 million entries and filtering - and there's not one person here who wants to do that! Thanks in advance.

                                    Moz's new Link Explorer, including our revamped index and DA/PA scores is now open to everyone!

                                    Hey Moz Community, Link Explorer is now open to the public! Everyone can access it via a subscription or a free Moz ‘Community’ account. As you may know by now, the brand-new Link Explorer tool is primed to replace Open Site Explorer as Moz’s link building and analysis tool. The Link Explorer project is the result of an incredible amount of perseverance and hard work by the team, and we’re proud to be able to finally share it with you — we know it’s going to revolutionize how you approach link building and make your job easier. You can read more about the tool here in Sarah Bird’s announcement post. Because Link Explorer improves on almost every aspect of Open Site Explorer, the metrics have improved, too. That means you’re likely going to see some Domain Authority and Page Authority discrepancies between OSE’s index and Link Explorer’s index. We definitely suggest you use the new DA/PA from Link Explorer, as they’re more accurate and refresh daily rather than monthly, as was the case with OSE’s index. However, we also realize that many of you use these metrics to report to your clients and colleagues, and a sudden change or fluctuation could potentially make your job harder. Which DA is the real DA? The new DA is based on a much larger index that has many improvements, several of which are designed to make the index more like Google’s than ever before. You should consider moving towards the new DA (and the old DA won’t be updated after April 26th 2018, so the sooner the better). While there will be fluctuations as we improve the model and add features to the index, we expect it to remain largely stable and to be a far more accurate picture of a site’s authority according to how it’s seen by Google. Why is Link Explorer’s DA/PA considered better than OSE’s, and which should I trust? The larger link index with improved crawl selection allows us to produce a stronger model that includes a much larger proportion of the web. That being said, DA and PA should always be considered in the context of your competitors. A drop in PA or DA relative to the old OSE is of little concern if your competitors saw similar movement. Is Domain Authority/Page Authority an absolute score or a relative one? Both DA and PA are relative to the Internet as a whole. If Facebook acquired a billion new links, everyone’s PA and DA would drop relative to Facebook. Because of this, it’s always best to look at PA and DA in comparison to your competitors. What does a drop/raise in DA mean in Link Explorer vs OSE? How can I explain this to my clients when I’m reporting it? DA and PA should always be considered in the context of your competitors. A drop or raise in PA or DA relative to the old OSE is of little concern if your competitors saw similar movement. Reporting that your site has moved from a DA of 45 to a DA of 42 doesn’t tell the whole story, but reporting that your site has a DA of 42 while your main competitor moved from a 43 to a 37 shows that, relative to the sites you’re competing against in the SERPs, your site has significantly more authority and ranking power. What’s happening to MozTrust and MozRank and why, and what should I replace those with? The improvements to our DA/PA and Spam Score metrics now now account for more important nuances in helping you determine one site’s ability to rank higher than another. Because they no longer correlate with Google’s ranking model as well as they used to, MozRank and MozTrust are being deprecated for better metrics. Users should rely on Page Authority, Domain Authority, and Spam Score to determine the importance and quality of pages, domains, and links. I have historical data I use to help my clients benchmark their progress. What do I do now that DA is calculated differently? You should annotate any KPI changes referencing the change in DA and PA. However, most importantly, you should compare those changes to your competitors, as this will best show how strong your site’s authority is relative to the sites you’re competing against in the SERPs. We take updating our metrics very seriously, and our last major update to the model was 7 years ago. Users of Domain Authority and Page Authority can expect us to continue to produce steady, reliable metrics for the long haul, and only make changes to these metrics when we believe the benefits dramatically outweigh the stability of the metric. Do you have any questions about the new metrics? Anticipating a tough time reporting changes to clients or bosses? Metrics, features or functionality missing that you would want to see? Let us know in the thread, and we’ll work to find a good answer for you. Hope you enjoy the new Link Explorer product and the amazing new link index powering it. We are very excited to provide this valuable data to our community and customers.
