Link-Building

[PedroM]

Hello,

I have been doing link-building for my website since 2 of January. However those links are not in the Open Site Explorer. For example I have the DMOZ website pointing to my website and I cant see it in open site explorer! Why??

Tks in advance!

Keep in mind that Open Site Explorer updates about once a month, so it can be a two month delay before you see your links in OSE. The next update is due February 29th.

OSE also doesn't crawl all of the web, so if you have a DMOZ link that's ten levels down, it just may not be crawled. Hope this helps!

Good for you Group16.  You posted just before me.  On the same wavelength.

I peeked at the data for your domain in ahref.com. That data set shows 22 domains linking to any page at your domain.  Here are the top 5 domains.  Dmoz was not in the domains.

Domain    Backlinks    RefPages
wrg.com.br    379    379
zone41.org    140    140
digitaldiscovery.eu    99    99
siteintel.net    14    14
acepi.pt    7    7

Hey Pedro,

I am in the same boat with you. It is annoying not to see OSE update my link stats.

You might find this tool helpful: https://ahrefs.com/, you can use it as a free version (limited quieres) and it will show you up-to-date link count and their locations.

Hi,

Well the website is www.digitaldiscovery.com.pt and as you can see in the Open Site Explorer only haves like 8 root domains point to it.

However I have been making quality link-building like DMOZ and Alexa and much much more since 2 of January and none of those links shows in open site explorer.

Is there any other program where can I see those links?

Tks in advance!

We don't know where your links are located but here are two possible reasons....

The pages where your links are placed are not able to be crawled.

The pages where your links appear are in such a far off part of the web that crawlers have not discovered them yet.
