How do I find http backlinks to my domain?
-
Hi,
We spotted a number of sites linking to us from http sites, not https sites. How can I use backlink tools to find just those from http sites?
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.

You can use Moz SEO tools, to see how may backlinks yoru business has. We don’t this for our SEO agency Cardiff, it helped get our business high on page one of Google, as we built quality links.

@mark_seomoz1 If i understand you want to see who is linking to you and if HTTP vs htts? don't forget you can use Search engine console too! Wouldnt a sort in e.g. Google sheets work for this? just sort via HTTP then split via text to collum to get domains and de-dupe and it will roughly show you domains doing that in a few min.
Unless you are chasing some hypostasis as long as your site is https it really isn't much to worry about nor much you can do.

Hi webmaster,
When exporting links from Moz Link Explorer, they come without http part.
You can try using tools like http response header checker.
-
https://httpstatus.io/ - can check 100 URLs at a time. Very fast
-
https://www.bulkseotools.com/bulk-http-header-code-checker.php - 500 at a time. A bit slow
-
Screaming frog - you should know how to use this tool.
PROCESS
You will need Google Sheets for it.

Export Linking Domains from MOZ
-
Add "http://" to every domain
-
CONCATENATE strings A and B = Write this formula in C column "=a2&b2"
-
Crawl the http URLs
5. Check which URLS contain 200 status codes, filter out REDIRECTED URLS containing https. Here they are http domain backlinks. This is how I would solve your task.
I hope it helps. If you have questions, you are welcome.

Backlink builder (Professional)
If I wanted to hire a professional person to build high quality backlinks for me, where would I look? I'm asking here because I'd rather go on the recommendation of other businesses owners, than a google search. Does anyone have a person that they can recommend? It's for an insurance agency in Texas. Many thanks

Unsolved Backlinks issues.
I am hoping this is the right forum to ask this question. But, I was looking at my backlinks and noticed that I had some go to a page that resembles my site, but had porn words on it. however, it would link to a place on my site. Under more information it has a real link to my site. What is this? I noticed the domain authority was in I believe the 70's; but PA was in 40's. I am new, so can someone explain this. Thank you. example below:

Fastest way to get new backlinks recognised by Moz?
Hi all, I have seen a few discussions / advice pieces around this, but wondered what the current view is on the fastest way to get new backlinks recognised by Moz? I have seen people say that the content needs to be shared (e.g. on Twitter), and advice around creating Bitly links. I am not convinced that these techniques are working. On a related note, my website is very large. I have around 2.5m pages. Most of these pages are 3-4 clicks from the home page, but I have a small amount of important content much higher up in the site (1-2 clicks from the home page). Does Moz crawl pages nearer the home page more frequently, or does it make a pass of all pages on the site before it starts at the beginning again? If it makes a complete pass of all pages, then presumably making my site smaller will help to get Moz to see new content more quickly? Is there any other value to be gained in making a large site smaller? Many thanks in advance, Neil.
