Linking Domains - Missing
-
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if someone could help me. I keep reviewing my linking domains as I'm expecting a link back from an awards website that I recently sponsored / partnered. However its just not showing. I can see the link on their site and I can see that the other partners links are being tracked when I look at them in Open Site Explorer. I've got a couple of occurrences of this I'm and confused as to why?
Thanks for your help!

Thanks Tom,
That's fantastic! I really appreciate your help on that!

Good news! Both domains appear in MajesticSEO and Ahrefs. I've screen grabbed Majestic.
I imagine these will pop up in your OSE profile in the next update too. But they're there and passing strength. Good job!
-
Thank you that's very kind, i'd really appreciate that!
Our url is: www.agencyexpress.co.uk
The linking urls are: http://www.theestas.com/partners/ and http://www.redstones.co.uk/office-locations/brentwood/useful-information/trusted-suppliers
We don't have many but it's something I'm working on.
Thanks again Tom!

Hi Naomi, if you'd like me to quickly check whether or not the link is showing in Majestic/Ahrefs, let me know your URL and the link URL, as I have access to both tools. Either post here or send me a PM.

Hi,
Thank you that's very helpful! OSE not yet updated might be the case for one, however all the sponsors went on the site at the same time. I will check again after the next update. The other link is older. In that case they have linked us from an image. So maybe that's the problem.
I will check out the other tools for sure!
Thanks Again
Naomi

Hi there
If the page is being crawled by OSE (as shown by the link appearing in your competitors' link profile), it's probably a case of the link not being found yet by OSE for you.
OSE only updates once a month, with the next update due tomorrow in fact. You can see the update history and future update dates here. So, judging by that if your link was placed after June 20th, and possibly a couple of days before to account for processing time, that would be the reason why it has not shown up yet.
If you placed the link well before then, it might be more of an issue with the link itself or OSE showing an error. You can check to see if the link is showing up with a couple of other tools, such as MajesticSEO, Ahrefs (paid options) or OpenLinkProfiler (free).
Hope this helps.

Links in link lists not being discovered by Moz
I uploaded a couple of link lists to Moz about a week ago and have been tracking them. Most of the links on the list are from significant 90+ DA domains such as Wikipedia, Medium, etc. So far, Moz only seems to have discovered about 4 the 200 or so links I loaded. Do we know how long it takes for these to be discovered by Moz? Quite new to this, so any help understanding timelines for this would be appreciated.

The New Link Explorer (which will replace Open Site Explorer) is Now in Beta
Howdy Moz friends, Today, the Moz team is making a new tool -- Link Explorer -- available in private beta for Moz Pro subscribers (including those taking a free trial). The tool is still a little ways out from public launch, but we wanted to get your feedback to help make it the best product it can be. What's Link Explorer? In essence, it's a replacement for Open Site Explorer (Moz's tool for link discovery, competitive analysis, and link building) that addresses many of its most pernicious challenges, such as: Daily updates - no longer will you need to wait a month or two to see a new DA score or the links you built last week. Link Explorer updates every 24 hours with all the new links we've discovered that day, and gives a new DA score each night. A MUCH bigger index - OSE has always been known for having quality links, but quantity has been an issue. No longer. The new tool's link index is more than 20 times larger than Open Site Explorer's, covering trillions of links across hundreds of billions of pages, while maintaining a focus on high quality domains and pages. Additional functionality - new graphs (like link growth over time), new charts (like gained+lost links), new filters and sorts, and some new kinds of data coming soon. Improved metrics - Domain Authority and Page Authority have both been upgraded to have better correlations with Google's rankings (and they now update every 24 hours) Insanely fast - page load times on the new tool are almost as fast as Google's results 🙂 Less time waiting means more time to dig into results Link Tracking Lists - check a box next to any links of interest and you can build lists in the tool to track them over time, see whether/when they link, prioritize your outreach efforts, and (in the future) get aggregated data and alerts about those links There's much more to come, but we'd love for you to check out Link Explorer, find bugs, report things you love (and don't), and help us make it the best possible product for you and your teams. You can leave feedback here in this Q+A thread, email help@moz.com, or send feedback through the feedback form in Link Explorer.

How long does it take to turn around a 10/17 SPAM score domain?
Hi - Looking at acquiring a domain name that has a great product fit. The problem is it is currently getting a 10/17 Open Site Explorer SPAM score. The existing site for the domain is running Google sponsored link ads and is full of internal pages that link off to these ads. That explains the existing SPAM score. If I acquire the domain I'll throw out the Google ad pages and build instead a site with real valuable content that behaves like a normal site and look at building backlinks etc. My question is, following this approach, how long is it likely to take Google to not see the domain as some Spam factory so it starts getting well positioned SERPs?

Backlinks not showing on Open Site Explorer's Just-Discovered Links
Hi guys! My name is Edgar. I've recently been adding a bunch of backlinks to the site i work for, and most of them have a very high DA (DA > 80. Wohoo!). Nevertheless i'm often feel a bit frustrated when i check my site with the OSE, because just a few part of these links are showed in the just-discovered section, although i created them few days ago. So, i would like to know why is this happening, how long it take for my links to get crawled, and when can i stop getting frustrated on this? Than you very much! Edgar.

Open Site Explorer not reporting all 301 redirected links
Our site had over 2,000 root domains linking to it as reported in MOZ Open Site Explorer (and Google Webmaster Tools). We then changed the domain and made sure that 301 redirects were set up for all pages across the site. That was about 1 month ago. Open Site Explorer is now reporting less than 300 linking root domains. For the links that it is reporting the majority of these are being 301 redirected to the new URLs (some of them we changed the links directly). However the majority of the links that are being 301 redirected are not being reported. It is reporting most of the links coming from the old to the new domain. Google Webmaster Tools is reporting over 1,000 linking root domains to the new domain (it has a max of 1,000). We did notice that MOZ took some time to update the domain authority of the new domain. It was 1 for along time and it has now jumped up to 46 ( it was previously at 74). Maybe this is a time delay thing and eventually Open Site Explorer will report all of the 301 redirected links? It is a bit frustrating at the moment as we can't fully analyse the links to the site to try to focus on the high domain linking sites to get them to change the link directly. Also, If all links are being 301 redirected to the new domain should the authority not be close to where it was previously after one month? Our search traffic has dropped considerably since the launch of the new site and hasn't returned yet, so just wondering if the 301 redirected links pass on as much value as thre original direct links. Thanks, Damien
