Open Site Explorer Messge - Mysite.com redirects to www.mysite.com
-
Hello All,
When I plug in my site's URL http://mysite.com ( Not my actual URL of-course) into the OpenSiteExplorer tool I get the following message:
"You entered the URL http://Mysite.com which redirects to http://www.Mysite.com/.
Because it's likely to have more accurate metrics, we're showing data for the redirected URL instead.
Click here to analyze http://Mysite.com instead?"Not sure why I am getting this message. On my hosting server, I have defined my preferred domain to be the non-www. version. I have also used a Canonical Tag on Mysite.com/index.html file ( ). In addition, on Google Search Console ( Webmaster Tools ) , I have added both the www. and non-www. properties, where on both property settings, I have defined the non-www. version as my preferred one. Also, on my server, I have not implemented any 301 redirects at all.
So my questions are:
-
Why am I receiving this message when plugging in my non-www. URL version of my website into OpenSiteExplorer?
-
Is my DA or PA possibly being split up between the two versions as a result?
-
Should I be concerned?
-
How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jorge,
Did you managed to sort this out? I have exact same issue on my domain too.
My message is like this.
You entered the URL https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ which redirects to http://www.a-fotografy.co.uk/. Because it's likely to have more accurate metrics, we're showing data for the redirected URL instead. Click here to analyze https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ instead?
**https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ **is my current domain. I'm not even sure why it is redirecting to my old domain.
Let me know if you managed to sort your issue and I see if I should do the same.
Thanks.
Regards,
Armands

1. You may receive this probably due broken redirects.
2. No.
3. Yes.
4. Check redirects. You can use cURL or wget (console apps). You also can use SC "Fetch & Render".
If you're afraid - PM me with link to make some tests.

Backlink not showing on Link Explorer
Hello, Our team have been doing link building for a month, however non of the links are coming up in MOZ Link Explorer. We used link tracker to check, and it is not linking back. when checking on the other blog's site, they are linking back but we are unable to see it in moz. For example:
Link Explorer | | WAUBIKE
Indiegogo: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/wau-the-best-feature-packed-smart-ebike#/
NewAtlas: https://newatlas.com/wau-ebike-affordable/56791/ These both links are linking back to us at www.waubike.com, and we can see it on google web masters, but we cannot see it on Moz? We have checked our server and they confirmed they are not blocking Moz's crawlers. Anyone else have this issue ?0 -

How can I use Open Site Explorer to Identify why my own URL's are appearing as inbound links
I'm a new member of Moz, and am trying to understand why I am seeing my sites URL's in my Inbound Link results in Open Site Explorer. There are quite a few, and they are all product category URL's that are generated by my stores database. This is not happening with .html URL's. Any thoughts?

Does OSE crawl our site often? Or do we have an other problem? (internal links)
I am wondering if i can find out when OpenSiteExplorer crawled our entire website for the last time.
Link Explorer | | wilcoXXL
A few months ago we added some internal textlinks to all of our productpages. Those are links to the brandpage of that particular product. Some of our brands do have up to 1500 products, so there should be at least 1500 internal links pointing to that brandpage. But OSE still gives me a wrong count. It says there is only 1 internal link pointing to that brandpage.
Is it because OSE never crawled our site again? Or am i missing something here?(maybe too many internal links to one specific brandpage is not okay?) I'll hope you guys can help me out with this one.0 -

Just wanted to confirm whether I am using this tool improperly, or any issue is going with this tool? C6JPxGE
