How often does seo moz update its link data?
-
I have lots of recently gained good links that don't show in seo moz, how long does it take for moz trust, moz rank and PR to update?

Hmm... If your stats haven't ever updated, that's very odd. We have a Linkscape update calendar as Casey pointed out here: http://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/345964-linkscape-update-schedule and those are pretty substantial (tens of billions of pages, hundreds of millions of domains and links).
You can see the last few blog posts on the index updates, too:
- January: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/interim-linkscape-update-for-january
- End of November: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/2nd-november-index-update-our-broadest-index-yet-and-new-pada-scores-are-live
- Beginning of November: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/november-linkscape-update-is-live
- October: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/november-2011-linkscape-update
And on and on. Following this category: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/category/38 will provide links to the rest.
In terms of link timing - if an important link is created on, let's say January 1st, our crawler will probably find it in a 2-3 week crawl period. After that, it goes into processing for 12-20 days and an index is produced. Within these overlapping periods, you could imagine that in a worst case scenario, a link may not show up in a new index for up to 50 days (at the max) and as little as 14 days (in the best case).
We have another index planned in about 10-12 days (as I noted in the January interim blog post), so you'll likely see it there. If you don't feel free to write to help@seomoz.org with details and we'll see what the issue might be.
Cheers!

There was a recent update this past week (1/4/2012), so if you check now it will be accurate. They try to update it about once a month. You can keep up with the schedule at http://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/345964-linkscape-update-schedule

How to utilize Moz during website relaunch?
Hi folks - we're relaunching our website and have been sure to make it SEO optimized -- descriptive copy, new readable URLs, keyword-laden page metadata, and the like. However, I'm new to Moz Pro and unsure how to utilize it during this transition. My questions for those of you -- assuming many -- who have gone through a redesign: **How did you use Moz to track the success of your redesigned website? What do you wish you'd done? ** Any campaigns or resources you can suggest will be helpful, as I am new to the functionality!

Moz Crawl Report more urls?
Hi. I have used Moz Crawl Test and get my 3,000 urls crawled no issue. However, my site has more than that, is it possible to crawl the entire website? Alot of the crawl urls in the Moz test are search string urls and filters so Ive probably wasted about 2,500 urls on filter urls. Any advise or alternative software that wont cost a fortune?

Inbound external links
Hi I have a question about inbound external links The good news is that I have 135 inbound links showing up in open site explorer, where my main competitor has 4 The bad news is that these are not the links that I have been building myself. The links are sometimes in a foreign language, rarely in an entertainment category, which my website is, and there seems no way to add a link on the page. I did buy some links when I first started out, but I was advised not to do it again But these are clearly working despite their apparent lack of value Then the question is where are my web directory listings, social bookmarks, social media content and web 2.0 articles, and the links I found my competitor had, that I was able to add my own website on, I have manually grafted for these links, have I been wasting my time with all of these?.

Is there a tool on Moz or out on the internet that does bad link checker
I'm still pretty new to this and I was wondering if there is a free software, one of Moz or free out on the the internet that allows you to check bad links. I've done a lot of link building with citations and directories that for my clients industry. I just don't want to add their website and profile to a bad/risky directory and it penalizes my clients. I've seen a few out there, but I need one that is respectable and reliable. Any suggestions? I found one called bad neighborhood http://www.bad-neighborhood.com/text-link-tool.htm. Thanks Again, Benny

I have a client with a bit over 100 inbound links but Open Site Explorer shows total links on Subdomain as over 66,000, how can this be?
I have a client www.woodard247.com that shows only a bit over 100 inbound links. using the Open Site Explorer, they are a well trafficed local site and are not doing any grey hat or black hat techniques. However the rankings for their main keywords have suffered recently and we cannot identify any duplicate content or keyword stuffing issues. We have never purchased links or used link building software. Now for the main question: When we run Open Site Explorer it shows only a bit over 100 inbound links on the page and the domain, but the subdomain shows over 66,000 total links! How can this be possible? Could this be a problem? How can I find out what these links are since Open Site Explorer and Seo Spyglass both show only a hundred or so?

Competitive Link Analysis Tool?
Hi, I ran a competitive link analysis report today and back came quite a few domains that 2 or more of my 5 main competitors link from. Is it worth me submitting links to these sites? And would i be best served submitting my homepage URL or submitting a brand page such as Creative Recreation Trainers? I want to target that brand but don't want to do it if my main URL is better? Any ideas? See below my report. | Subdomain | Subdomain mR | Subdomain mT | # Competitors | # Linking Pages | Link Acquired |

Linkscape update tracking
I've got two questions really. First, is there anyway to compare your current Linkscape updates with previous updates? Second, I've made a concerted effort to gain accumulate links in strong performing domains over the past 3 months. However, Linkscape does not seem to be finding those links. Some of them are pretty straight forward, like Yahoo Directory (this went live last month). Is there a lag time between when I link to a page and when Linkscape picks up. Thanks,
