Why does the csv export from OSE only include 25 of the 90+ links?
-
In OpenSiteExplorer, I clicked "Download CSV" for a report on backlinks from one domain to another. The online visualization in OSE showed 93 external inbound links from site A to site B.
When I opened the report, there are only 25 linking pages listed. How do I download the full list?
-
Thanks Ryan, but I'd rather not. It's some research on an old link deal we had that we're rolling back. I'm not exactly proud of it
But I can tell you I started by running OSE on Domain A. Then filtered for "External Only" and "All Links to this Root Domain" and "Group links by Domain". Then scrolled down to find the domain I was looking for backlinks from, clicked the plus sign next to their name, which revealed 3 of the top links back and a link to "view all the links from this domain". Clicking on that takes you to the report I want to export.

If you are willing to share the URLs involved and the specific filters or parameters for the report, I can try to share feedback. Otherwise I will leave you in Megan's capable paws.

Hey thanks Megan! I just sent an email over with the link.

Hey Ryan - It was a domain to domain report that listed all the pages that link to one specific "domain A" from another specific "domain B".
In OSE it lists out all 93 links just fine, but then the exported file only shows 25 links.
-
Did you use any of the filters at the top of the page? For example there is a "Group by Domain" filter which will then show only 1 link per domain.
If you look at the email which included the file, it will list out any filters used to generate the report.

Hey Daniel!
This is Megan from the SEOmoz Help Team. Can you let me know what URL you're analyzing in OSE? If you don't feel comfortable sharing that information publicly, please let us know by sending a message to help@seomoz.org and we'll take a look asap!
Cheers!

Is there a way to export to csv the report of keyword difficulty tool?
I'm using it to create reportes on multiple keywords and I don't see an export/download button.I see that when one keyword only is searched for, you can export the serp results. I am asking about searching multiple keywords and then exporting them all with their scores.

Tracking External Followed Inbound Links - Are We Getting Fooled?
This question is not about how to use SEOMOZ Link tools. It's about the numbers themselves and how their fluctuations are causing confidence issues.... My client wants to track inbound followed links over time. But as I understand it, this number will vary depending on the Linkscape crawling success (or even outages or partial crawls.) In the past few reports, we've had wild fluctuations which have made them very nervous. If my client wants to track inbound followed links over time, what SEOMOZ metric should we use for the most reliable progress checks?

Are the CSV downloads malformatted, when a comma appears in a URL?
Howdy folks, we've been a PRO member for about 24 hours now and I have to say we're loving it! One problem I am having with however is a CSV exported from our crawl diagnostics summary that I've downloaded. The CSV contains all the data fine, however I am having problems with it when a URL contains a comma. I am making a little tool to work with the CSVs we download and I can't parse it properly because there sometimes URLs contain commas and aren't quoted the same as other fields, such as meta_description_tag, are. Is there something simple I'm missing or is it something that can be fixed? Looking forward to learn more about the various tools. Thanks for the help.

Canonical link on canonical url
This might seem a bit of an odd one, but we seem to be going around in circles on this when using the on page optimizer tool. We have an ecommerce site (magento) which by default is putting a canonical link in the header on every product page. For example; www.example.com/product1.html has the But when we run the on page optimiser tool, we're losing points on the critical section for not having canonical set correctly. If we remove the tag, we get the tick and the a grade, but then further down the report we lose a tick for not using canonical links. What are we missing here?

OSE Problems
I'm experiencing severe delays trying to export OSE data into CSV over the past couple of days. Relatively small reports I ran 2 days ago are still pending! Has anyone else noticed this? Also my campaign rankings have not updated since 24th April - anyone else? Logged with Moz Helpdesk but no reply as yet...

What software can I use on my Mac to open and read a SEOMoz CSV exported file?
I do not want to buy XL or Pages just to read the CSV from SEOMoz. So I bought an app on the AppStore... and this app is unable to read the CSV from SEOMoz. Since I already wasted $2, Id rather avoid to waste more (and avoid that to others too!). What software is recomanded to open these CSV files? Also, I tried Google Docs, but I bumped in their 400K cells limit 😞
