Why I am not seeing any inbound link to my website?
-
While using the Open Site Explorer tool, I don't get any resultfor Inbound Links, while with other services and the Webmaster Tools I can see which websites are linking to mine.
What I can do to see these results here on the MOZ analytics software?
The website is http://b5footballcup.com
Thanks for the support.

Majestic Historic Index shows 207 links from 23 domains. You have links out there but OSE hasn't picked them up. This is mainly a matter of discovery and index size. The OSE index simply is about 10% of Majestic.
I had a lengthy reply to Rand about this here: http://moz.com/blog/spam-score-mozs-new-metric-to-measure-penalization-risk#comment-328141
What you're seeing is a combination of having only a few live links and OSE's limits.

There is one link in Open Site Explorer (in the fresh discovered section: https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/just-discovered?site=http%3A%2F%2Fb5footballcup.com&filter=&source=&target=page&page=1&sort=crawled)
It's quite possible that there are more links to your site, and that Moz hasn't discovered them yet. You should know however that no tool will be able to discover all the links to your site. Most of them can find the links from high ranked sites, but the more links you have from smaller & less well known sites, the more difficulty the tools will have to find these links.

Link tracking list not finding my links
I am using the Link Tracking List to track new backlinks that I have achieved. However, the report still shows about half of them as not found... even some that have been there for several weeks. I thoroughly tested a couple of them to make sure the links were coded in html, there were no nofollow/noindex rules, the bot was not blocked etc, but still found nothing. What can I do now?

When will Dotbot see changes to my robots.txt file?
Dotbot doesn't want to know anything about my site, my Page Authotize is still 1 and my DA is the same. How long does it take to start getting results? In all the websites we have been working on, we have no problems, but in ours it has come up.

Question about link report
Hey all, SEO noob here, back with another question. I downloaded a link report, and I don't understand the columns Links to Page, Outbound Domains from Page, and Outbound Links from Page. Is Links to Page the number of links from the source page to the target page? Is Outbound Domains from Page the number of domains linked to by the source page? Is Outbound Links from Page the number of outbound links to any domain or page from the source page? Thanks in advance! AK

OSE not picking up all internal links?
Hi! I've been checking a few pages in OSE. For example: https://www.holidayhypermarket.co.uk/holidays/last-minute This, according to the tool, has only 6 internal links. However, a Screaming Frog crawl picks up 700+, which is about right seeing as there is a link in the footer. What do you think could be behind the discrepancy?

Confused about the link metrics showing up in MOZ & OSE
For my campaign "itelligence Applications" which is for site itelligencegroup.com/uk/ - MOZ seems to be giving me different stats on links, depending on which tab I look it in the Link Analysis section. Then when I look at OSE, the numbers are totally different again, not just a little bit different. Example: In MOZ Link Analysis, on the "inbound links" tab, it says there are 129 Root Domains and 6832 Total External Inbound Links. If I then look at the Competitive Metrics screen, it says there are 46,284 external followed links and 240 total linking root domains. If I then go to OSE for the same site, it says there are 14 Root Domains and 686 total links. I have no idea why these numbers vary so much or how to even report them to my client. Am I missing something here? Any help would be gratefully received! Maureen

Does Open Site Explorer recognise nofollow links?
In the backlink profile for my site on OSE, I'm seeing a lot of links that are paid advetorials and I know go through DoubleClick. I was informed that links going through Doubleclick automatically become NoFollow links. If the above is true, should I ignore these links? If they are NoFollow, they don't really contribute to my backlink profile? THANKS!
