Why does the link analysis of my website say I have no links?
-
When I click on the "Link Analysis" tab it says my website has a domain authority of 1 and has 0's for every other category.
When I run it in Open Site Explorer - it says I have a page authority of 51 with over 4600 links.
My website also seems to be at a stand still over the past several weeks. Anyone know why the two Link Analysis is not showing anything?
Thank you

Thank you.
Although I am using Volusion for some clients, I hate them. Too limited and I will go out of my way to get customers away from them. I do have a client using Volusion, he is paying ~$500 a month for unlimited bandwidth...$500!?!?!! I mean cmon!

That is extremely funny that you mention that.
We are currently undergoing a complete re-design of our website and are switching to Magento ASAP (hopefully in the next 2-3 months). We have over 40,000 skus so it will be a task but we have had major issues with Volusion that it will be well worth any ranking dips we get after the switch
Good luck to you and thanks for all of your help!

No problem. Also I just visited your site, your right sidebar is showing up in the middle of the page when you scroll down.
Also, you should not use Volusion, they are horrible. For a small volume or local business, I guess its not that bad but if you are planning on expanding, I say leave them now while you still can.
I'd suggest Magento, hosting is cheaper. Volusion rips people off with the bandwidth limitations. I get charged 100-200 extra a month for bandwidth limitation, I am trying to move to Magento but currently don't have enough time to input 2000 products with customized descriptions and titles.

Thanks William - I entered the domain without the www. for some reason.
I appreciate your help!

What "Link Analysis" are you talking about? I'm looking around and can't see what you are referring to.
You might or should contact SEOmoz if this is part of the tool set.
What I think you are referring to is on the 'Campaign' tab and then bottom where it says competitive link analysis. If this is the case, you might have entered the wrong domain.
i.e.
These both domains could be the same root domain but will have a different page authority and domain authority. You might have the non-homepage set up in your Campaign settings, and on OSE, you are searching your exact domain probably.
This is a guess, assuming I know what you are referring to.

How to approach link building/content in my weight loss coaching niche in a large scale way
Hello, I run a weight loss coaching business, bobweikel.com that is in it's early stages. I'm still working on making it graphically appealing I want to increase my number of national clients - it's coaching done over the phone or skype. I'm needing help analyzing my niche, specifically keywords, article content topics, link building tactics. I want to put a lot of time into it. Eventually I want to scale it up and hire other weight loss coaches and even SEO help. How do I get this dream going through gaining national clients online? There's not much traffic locally. I'm enough of an authority that, with enough time, I can create kickass content on the topics of weight loss and also the topic of NLP (NLP is the type of coaching I do, but it's little known) I'd like to add 5 best-of-the-web articles and a blog. Looking for advice. Would like to dream big. Tools I normally use (though I'm open to anything): OSE, Link Prospector, Excel Pivot Tables, Buzzstream, iPhone 5S video camera with tripod, youtube video embed, keyword discovery

Internal/External link ratio
I have a client who ranked #3 for a very important and highly competitive keyword phrase. Using the 'Compare Pages' tool in open site explorer I could see that we were far better optimized than the two websites that were out ranking my client. Our PA was higher, the MozRank was higher, more internal and external links (and the external are all high quality) more linking C blocks etc.. etc... not just the page but the website, in general, was better optimized. The one thing I did notice was that although we had more internal and external links, our ratio was far heavier to the external side than the ratio of either competitor. So, at a loss of what else to do, I went through the website and beefed up the internal links to the specific page in question. I didn't over do it, just moved up from about 6% to about 12% (one competitor was at about 20% while the other was about 65%). Six days later we are number two rather than number three. Coincidence? Should I beef it up even more? Has anyone ever come across anything like this? Thank you for your comments in advance.

Small Link nalysis project - anyone
Hi, Not sure if someone can help me out. OSE only show the best mozrank data but i might have some links under that benchmark. Therefore anybody with a Majestic account that can filter new links from April 2012 to date. Payment not a problem. WMTools isnt showing data that i expected, so maybe its not there. Need a secondary opinion of the data from another source. Ive contacted some SEOmoz Recommended Companies...no response. Clearly have better things to do maybe.

Certainty or Uncertainty of SEO / Link Building
Hey there I'm new to both SEO and Seomoz. I have this personal site I've been working on SEO wise (slowly since I started learning from 0) and I have reached a point where the only missing thing for me to do is build links. However, the competitors for my site have thousands of links. From all I've read on the web regarding SEO&LinkBuilding, including articles in this site...the old method of spamming links wherever/whenever possible is now being penalized while the practice of manual/hand-built links of higher quality and lesser quantity is rewarded. So I went ahead and approached several linkbuilding companies and one thing that struck me was the level of uncertainty regarding the chances of getting a site to get to the first page. I understand there's factors you cannot predict or control, such as what your competitors are doing on the SEO front...but ultimately, I'm curious as to how do you effectively gauge the possibility of getting to the top page of any keyword combination? Especially when dealing with clients... since apparently whoever 'guarantees' you anything is a fraud or uses blackhat techniques...how do you pitch the 'uncertainty' to the client? Likewise...how do you know if you can make it to the top page or viceversa? Cheers

Are My Links Valuable?
I have been link building for a couple months now. I am having a hard time trying to figure out which sites are even worthy of getting links from. Obviously, those that are clearly link farming, or have lots of ads throughout their site are not valuable. I use OSE, but don't know what is a good P.A or D.A. and what it means when one is much higher than the other (and if that is a bad thing). I also use compete.com to give me a general idea of the unique visitors going into a site. Any tools I can use to help evaluate the strength of specific incoming links/ specific websites? Any ideas or thoughts would be helpful. Thanks So Much, Melissa

50,000 Links From The Same Website
Hey Mozers, I was conducting competitive research for a client of mine and I discovered one of their competitors has over 50,000 backlinks! After removing my heart from my stomach I realized that 99.9% of the links came from a single website that doesn't have nearly that many pages. Has anyone experienced this in the past? And if so what exactly is going on? C
