Why does facebook, twitter, pinterest show up for links?
-
Hello, As I have used site explorer on competition sites, I am curious what I need to do to have my facebook, twitter, and pinterest links to shop up as a backlink?
I see some other sites have it, even if its a nofollow, but curious if I am doing something wrong? I have had accounts since last year.
Just curious if I am doing something wrong,
Thank you
Chris

Yea im not sure if explorer picks up everything but WMT does. As long as you add all your urls to all your social acts your should be good.

Thank you
Usually I just add them to the areas that allow, like for Twitter, its says add homepage url etc.
So under WMT yes they are there, but not in open explorer, so nit sure if it was a big deal or not.

Hey,
Im not sure if all links to your site show up in site explorer, check wmt but in some of my sites i don't see some social media links as well. Are you sure you have the link in the right place? That might be it as well.

Sudden surge in discovered links
Hi everyone, Recently Moz discovered a lot of old backlinks to my url. Some of them don't even exist anymore. I don't understand how Moz has found these links, even if they don't exist? And why did Moz find them suddenly all at once? Can anyone help me with this question? Thanks!

Drop in DA and PA and lost a load of links
Hi Mozzers, I just check a site in OSE and while the inbound domains are up the total links have dropped and therefore DA and PA. How can I find which links have gone. I'm assuming a domain passing 1000's of links has either gone down or broken the link - can I use the ISE tool to fine which links have been recently broken? I know there is just discovered for new links. If not can you recommend a tool please. Thanks

What does "Number of Linking Root Domains" in Open Site Explorer actually mean?
I've read through the forum, but I'm confused as to what "Number of Linking Root Domains" means in the Linking Domains report. For example, if the root domain is Moz.com and the number is 135,000 does that mean there are 135,000 links from Moz pointing back to my site or does it mean there are 135,000 sites linking back to Moz? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Does the inbound links report include links to all pages of the domain being researched?
If I enter 'abc.com' am I only getting results for 'abc.com' or will I get results for the internal pages of 'abc.com' as well (i.e. 'abc.com/page1.html)? There is a bit of a discrepancy between these results and inbound link results in semrush for example. Then again it seems whenever you use different tools to measure the same thing you get wildly varying results. How do you all deal with that?
