Does SEOMOZ planing to restructure OSE metrics?
-
As you know SEO slowly turning into SEM and some metrics and numbers from Open Site Explorer are no so relevant any more.
As a customer of SEOMOZ product i am warning if you guys are planning to add more value and ranking metrics according to the new ranking metrics and factors to your tools?

Hi Jason - we do have some continual improvement plans for OSE and for our metrics. Obviously, the Just Discovered links feature was one of the most recent and valuable ones. We also do refactor and recalculate Page Authority/Domain Authority on a regular basis to make them better correlated with changes to Google.
On the longer-term horizon, we're planning a webspam metric, and we may be using more data from social and fresh web to improve PA/DA.

I don't work for SEOmoz but I can tell you that Open Site Explorer is one of the highest regarded tools in the SEO/SEM Community. The just discovered tab is in Beta and is still pretty awesome. I would say OSE is ahead of the curve and I thiunk most mozzers would agree.
I will tell you the relevance and value to every single metric in OSE.
If you are looking for more of a link opportunity tool i would suggest Ontolo or Buzzstream which I use both. Honestly my starting point for using either of those starts in OSE still.

Is SEOmoz spider ignoring my redirect?
My client was previously serving their website from both a .co.uk and a .com domain. The DNS for each of these domains was pointing to the same place, rather than redirecting. I saw this as a potential duplicate content problem so I set the .co.uk to 301 redirect on to the .com. As a user, the 301 seems to be working correctly. However, now that I have done this, SEOmoz is picking up thousands of "inbound" links from the .co.uk domain. Essentially, every single link on the internal site, is being duplicated in my stats as an inbound link as well. It appears that the spider is ignoring the redirect. I'm not sure if it's a legitimate issue that will upset Google too, or if it's just a bug with SEOMoz's spider.

SEOmoz report vs. Google's Algo
Hello, I got an SEOmoz Report for one of our clients and the report is showing these pages and many more others as duplicate page content. Thing is the page content is not duplicate however there is very little data differentiating the contents. My question is does Google see the following pages contents as duplicate? because seomoz does. http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/img_9632/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/newly-renovated-in-victory-park.html/3-2/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/pedestrian-friendly-uptown-west-village.html/attachment/18/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/img_4322/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/historic-deep-ellum-lofts.html/2012-08-18-11-24-30/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/pedestrian-friendly-uptown-west-village.html/attachment/13/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/842-4/

Compare link metrics - What time frame is this in?
Hi, I'm comparing three sites and one of them I know is quite popular however a few of the social statistics are puzzling me; they've got a small amount of Facebook likes and times shared on twitter - Which just can't be right if it's all time. What's the time frame of this data? The last three months or? Thanks, Dan

How long after 301 redirect does seomoz toolbar take to update?
I 301 redirected a page to a new URL that is better optimized for my content. However as soon as I did this upon visiting the page, my browser's seomoz toolbar "page authority measurement had fallen to "1" it was previously in the 40's... Does anyone know how long it takes for the seomoz toolbar PA rank to refresh on a 301 redirect? I see where seomoz says the redirected page will retain between 90-99% off its link juice. I'm fine with losing a little if it would mean long term gains in terms of good on-page seo. Any ideas?
