      Hi

      Maybe I am missing this but I can''t seem to see it.

      I am doing some analysis on a client's site and want to get a csv list of links from the client's site to external sites. So what I am looking for is a list of Out Bound Links (OBL) from the client's site.

      I want to run these past a black list / bad link neighborhood checking script I have.

      This would actually be a nice feature in SEO Moz Pro, unless it actually already does and I am just missing it or not setting filters correctly.

      Thanks

      Trevor

        Thanks Gil, that is a good tool.

        I hope the Moz team introduce something like this into their software.

            Trevor,

            I was thinking, there must be another solution.

            Here is what I found : http://www.bad-neighborhood.com/text-link-tool.htm

            It's interesting because it goes one level deeper, by scanning the destination page.

            For instance if you have a link to somecasinoonline.com they will check that page and try see how many questionable links are there.

            It does a pretty good job apparently, but does not include text anchors

            Gil

              Hi Thanks for the quick response.

              I like the Wintzell.net tool, and I run Linux (without wine) so the Snafu tool won't run on my system. I prefer to use a web service anyway.

              Does SEO Moz Pro not have this tool? It seems like an obvious facility for it to have? Links from a site to another site can be very important too, so it would seem logical to be able to analyze the links that you have a lot of control over to make sure they are not linking to bad neighborhoods.

              It would be ideal to be able to get a .csv download from Moz Pro link analysis for the links from your site to other sites. It would list the external URLs being linked to and form which internal pages they are linked from, along with the anchor text. It could even automatically show which of the sites were black listed or classed as bad link neighborhoods.

              It would also seem logical to show which percentage of your back link (IBL) profile was black listed or considered a bad link neighborhood.

              Thanks

              Trevor

                Trevor,

                I think this question was asked before;

                See http://www.seomoz.org/q/tool-to-see-outbound-links-on-a-site

                Two tools are listed :

                - http://www.wintzell.net/seo-tools/domain-outbound-links-check.php  an online tool, will give you a fairly simple list

                - http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html#Description  a downloadable program, will give you a list with anchor text

                Best

                Gil

                  Links to Your Site: No Data Available in Google Search Console

                  The site I am working on did not have their site submitted to Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools).  I submitted the site and a sitemap that auto updates.  Google is crawling the site daily (about 30 pages a day).  Under Search Traffic > Links to Your Site it shows no data is availible.  I thought it was because it was a newly submitted site, but it has been two months now. Moz seems to have the same issue.  Moz does show inbound links, but their are some that we think should really help us that are not shown.  For instance, the Dallas Morning News wrote this article.  They have a high DA and PA.  Also, iliveindallas.com has an article about us that is still on the front page.  That was a few weeks ago but also does not show up on Moz or Google SC. We are trying to be selective about the links we are getting.  That they are follow links from reputable sites.  Worried that both Google and Moz are not showing them.

                  Hello I have 72 external broken links who are reported with a http 503 status. When I ask the owner of that site, he confirmed he has removed it from GA by using this status. My question is. Does this have an impact for the quality of my site? The site is available, there is no delay when you open the link. Thank you for your support. br

                  How do Infographics provide links? (example inside)

                  Hi, I don't get it...
                  I've encountered the following infographic that seemed to do well: http://www.brilliance.com/4cs-of-diamonds-infograph As you can see, the page has thousands of social shares from Tweets to Facebook and obviously Pinterest. However, when I placed this page on Open Site Explorer (click to view) I see only 9 external links and page authority of 28/100. And this seems to me like a successful infographic. Any explanations? Thanks

                  Percentage of good links vs. bad

                  Hi Does anyone know the best way of determining good links from bad links using the SEO Moz tools? I bought some directory links to two or three pages on my site a few years back. The were all very obviously spammy because of the anchor text and I didn't have a high enough ratio of good links to counteract them. I read somewhere that if more than 10% of the links to a page have the same (or similar) anchor text, it's obvious that you're on the bad list.

                  Page Authority is the same on every page of my site

                  I'm analyzing a site and the page authority is the exact same for every page in the site. How can this be since the page authority is supposed to be unique to each page?

                  What do you use for site audit

                  What tools do you use for conducting a site audit? I need to do an audit on a site and the seomoz web crawler and on page optimization will takes days if not a full week to return any results. In past Ive used other tools that I could run on the fly and they would return broken links, missing htags, keyword density, server information and more. Curious as to what you all use and what you may recommend to use in conjunction with the moz tools.
