Open Site Explorer Top Pages https Title tag issue
-
Hello, everybody.
I've noticed this strange thing in Top Pages reporting of Open Site Explorer. If i do a report for any website which doesn't have security certificate installed, such as http://www.hyperlinksmedia.com I get normal results, with title tag shown for every page, but, if i do a report for website with Security certificate, such as https://www.hyperlinksmedia.com, report is coming back for non-secure URL version (http:...), so, it says "No Title" for any pages. I wonder, if it influence PA and DA scores.
Although, if i run full crawl test, then i shows all meta and title tags for SSL version of a website's url.
Thanks!

Here is what i got after talking to moz-help people. Thanks to David Lee.
Sorry for the confusion! The pages are not returning a title due to the pages having a 301 re-direct at the time we crawled them which was in November. For any pages with a 301 we will not have any information for the title and we do not show re-directed URLs in the app. If we were to re-crawl the site we will be able to update the data to show the https links.
You can see back in December the site was still resolving the http version which had the 301 re-direct in place: https://web.archive.org/web/20140625093032/http://www.hyperlinksmedia.com/
There are some new links in the queue for us to re-crawl the site so you may see better information after our next index release. It can take 2-3 index updates for them to appear.

Hello Charles, this is Abe from the Moz Help team. I have not seen this particular issue, I think you may have found a bug or unknown limitation of our tool. Can you write in to help@moz.com with this information so that we can try to figure out the cause of the "No Title" labels ? Thanks again for the heads up!

Why aren't my "page social metrics" increasing?
I post a lot to Facebook & twitter, & my "page social metrics" haven't budged in 4 weeks. I even stopped using bit.ly & stated the full URL as a test. Still no change. The fb account is /getgoodgifts & twitter is /giftsing. Thoughts on why social metrics aren't increasing?

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.

Drastic Monthly Fluctuations in Page Link Metrics
We have experienced very drastic changes in our root domain numbers and as a result, have seen an odd impact on our DA. The data does not seem at all reliable at all. We went one month with over 50 recorded root domains and the next month that dropped over 75%. It doesn't make sense to be paying for a monthly pro account when the data is so clearly unreliable. What is going on? Looking for a good answer before closing our account!

Open Site Explorer Recently Discovered Links Question
Hey Mozzers, I have a question regarding the Open Site Explorer Recently Discovered Links. I know that I have receive follow link from a few sites that have more DA than my site. I am wondering why it is taking so long for OSE to discover these links? I double checked the sites to make sure that they don't have NOFOLLOW (sorry for the double negative), and the sites have linked to my site for over a month now. Any ideas? I'm not concerned about it because Search Engines have discovered those links. I am just curious why this is, or if it is normal. Cheers!

Moz & Other Sites Not Showing in Link Profile?
I'm curious to know why Moz, YouTube, G+ and some other links are not showing the OSE link profile as NOFOLLOW or DOFOLLOW for our website whiteboardcreations.com? When doing analysis, we see a lot of companies YouTube pages with their NF link and G+ page links and even see a lot of the Moz community members with their Profile pages showing the NF link or the DF links. I'm confused as to why OSE is not picking up any of our links from those respective sites. Any thoughts? Thank you in advance. - Patrick
