Competitive Link Finder
-
Hi, just wondering if I am the only one who is not having much luck lately using the Competitive Link Finder .
In the past it has worked pretty well. But as of the past week or so, it has only returned on link. I know there are many of them which should be found.
Anyway, just curious if I am solo with this issue.

I had the same issue and dicovered that the tool is very sensitive to how the URLs are enetred. Make sure that you have removed http:// in the URLs so that all URLs are in the format www.competitorsite.com
That should do the trick!

Hi There,
Thanks for writing in and sorry that Competitive Link Finder isn't working for you.
Unfortunately, Competitive Link Finder is an older labs tool that doesn't always work, but that we are no longer providing support for. As it mentions on the tools page, with SEOmoz Labs tools, PRO users can test-drive tool prototypes and give feedback on the the latest SEOmoz technology and product design, but we do not offer support or guarantee data accuracy for these prototype tools. If you’d like to leave feedback, please do so in the SEOmoz Feature Request Forum.
This tool will sometimes work perfectly fine, as it seems to be working for DesignerBoutiqueMenswear, but it also has a lot of issues and, again, we can't guarantee that it will be consistent at this time.
Thanks for your understanding. If you have any other questions about this or any other tools, we recommend that you send them to help@seomoz.org.

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.

Spammy Directories Using Title Meta-Tag For Link
I've been noticing a growing amount of spammy directories using my title Meta-Tag to create a link back to my site. Since my title uses competitive keywords, these external links on spammy directories look over optimized and I fear an algo penalty might get triggered. Should I be concerned and what can I do?

I'm looking for good outbound link profiling tool...
Hello all, Just a brief question... does anybody know of a good link profiling tool which will give me a list of URLs that are linked to from a specific website? Essentially, I'm looking for the polar opposite of OpenSiteExplorer as I'm not interested in the inbound links, only the outbound links. Thanks, Elias

Google Inbound Links much higher than SEOMOZ
I just started here and really like everything the community and tools so far. One question. My SEOMOZ dashboard shows only one inbound link while Google Web Tools shows 300+. My site has been up for 3 months now and I'm curious about the lack of indexing. Any help, tips or feedback is greatly appreciated. http://CrossTrainingandFitness.com Robb Jarrett

In OSE is there a way to see the total number or links coming from each domain?
Open site explorer will only show up to to 25 links per domain but in order to fully understand the link profile for the site I'm working on, I need to know how many links are coming from each domain - when I download the linking domains report, it doesn't contain this information. Is there a way to access it?
