How long google & roger need to notice backlinks
-
Hello,
It is three weeks I have begun link building to a client website through partnerships and neither Google (link:mysite.com) nor Roger are seing any of these backlinks
Any idea what is the time commonly needed for small and new websites (no trafic at the moment) to see domain authority growing ?

Thank you Ryan, your answer is really detailed and I am going to stop checking for my domain authority for a while, and thus keep more energy for finding other links !

Domain Authority is purely a SEOmoz term. It is based upon Linkscape's crawl of the web which is completed approximately once per month. Depending on when the links were built it may take 2 months before they are discovered.
Keep in mind Linkscape only crawls the top 25% of web pages. For the most part, if Linkscape does not see your link it likely does not have much value.
Linkscape was last updated Feb 28th so if you built a link a full 3 weeks ago, it should be visible after the next update on April 10th. If you started after 3 weeks ago, it may not be visible until May. Please take a look at the update calendar: https://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/345964-linkscape-update-schedule
Google will find your links much quicker. It depends on the value of the page. If you gain a link from the New York Times front page, Google will likely find the link a few minutes later. If you gain a link from a random page of a low value free directory, it may take a month.
Also keep in mind just because a link is found does not mean it has any value.

Backlinks Question
Hi all, i own a small business in an extremely competitive marketplace. I have also educated myself greatly about seo over the past 3 years and currently do my own. The one thing I cannot figure out, for the life of me, is how my two competitors keep beating me in rankings without backlinks. I mean, I have about 3K solid backlinks, mostly do follow, from top notch publications, sites, citations ect. In ahref, it shows that he has almost no backlinks. I cannot crack th third spot, but they dominate with zero backlinks, and the domains are only a bit older than mine. Thoughts on this?

How much time does it takes for a backlink to get registered in Google? My basketball anime website has been live since start of this week and Google has not registered any backlink.
So my website https://www.animedhfa.com/basketball-anime/ about basketball Anime has shown no changes in DA or backlinks. It has been 5 days perhaps since it went live.

How long it takes to see backlink ?
We are promoting a law related website and I have posted a blog as a guest on a Law related blog which has PR 3 and Alexa Ranking 171.. It's been 3 weeks but when i run a backlink report from OpenExplorer or other tools that i use, i cannot see the link coming through at all. There is no no follow attached. I'd like to continue to post more articles on the same website but i need to make sure i am getting good links from it otherwise i will go somewhere else. However, i need to understand why do i not get links from that blog as it is very reputable and good blog. I appreciate if you can advise please? Thanks!

What % Page Metrics & Social, What % Links?
It seems that a lot of the focus of SEOs, especially whitehat SEOs like SEOMoz and Distilled has shifted a lot more towards improving page metrics (bounce, return rate, etc) and social metrics. I'm curious - And of course, I'm just asking for guesses - But what percent of ranking do you think is page metrics, social metrics and other non-link based metrics and what percent do you think are link based metrics?

Adding to intl versions of Google?
I ran the SEOmoz Competitive Link Finder tool for my URL and 5 of my competitors. The #1 result (where 3 of my competitors are listed but I'm not) is google.com.sg. Here's the URL where they are listed: http://www.google.com.sg/alpha/Top/Business/Investing/Derivatives/Options/Research_and_Analysis/ All 5 of us are US-based companies. Why would 3 of them be listed in the Singapore version of Google but not me? Is it common practice to add your URL to all local versions of Google, or should submission to the main google.com be enough?
