Moz doesn’t show the right facebook likes.
-
Hi moz help,
I found out that in opensiteexplorer.org our Facebook likes counts zero, while my facebook account actually counts more than 600 likes. How is this possible? Did I not couple my facebook account correctly to my website? The address is http://www.onlinefietsonderdelenkopen.nl and the Facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/onlinefietsonderdelenkopen

According to my experience, it also doesn't add the likes from bitly or other URL shorteners.

The number of Facebook likes returned by OpenSiteExplorer is the number of times the URL you entered into OSE was liked on Facebook posts, not the number of Facebook likes for the Facebook Page tied to the domain.
So in short, this number is accurate.

Hi Gerjan,
Actually the information is right, you have connected the Facebook Page in the right way to your site via the widget etc. But these likes don't count for the specific pages. So your FB Page has ±600 likes but the specific homepage you've checked in OpenSiteExplorer is providing data for webpages and that is 0.
Hope this helps!

MOZ Versus HUBSPOT??? If We Discontinue MOZ Subscription and Get HUBSPOT, Anything Lost?
How does Hubspot compare with MOZ? Doe it provide similar features or is the functionality very different? Is Hubspot complementary to MOZ or could it be used as a substitute? If we stopped our MOZ subscription and subscribed to Hubspot would we lose anything? Thanks, Alan

Question for Moz developers - Highcharts?
So, I see that Moz is using Highcharts as it's charting display engine. What made you decide to use them instead of some of the other solutions out there, like FusionCharts or Google Charts, even creating your own home-made creation?

Our company is starting over from scratch with reports/charts and are looking at other solutions than what we currently are using (fusioncharts/fusion widgets). And I wanted to get feedback on why you chose this route over any other. Thanks!!0 -
Why does mozbar show pagerank sometimes and not opensiteexplorer?
Hello Internet People! I have been using Opensiteexplorer and Mozbar side by side for 2 months now, running comparisons while link building. I have noticed a small problem, in that sometimes, Mozbar will display page rank information while Opensiteexplorer does not. Eventually Opensiteexplorer updated after several days or weeks, showing the same values as Mozbar. Can someone help me understand why this is happening and if it is a problem to trust the tool over the website? Thanks!
