What happened to my links in Open Site Explorer.
-
Hello,
A while ago I had a problem with open site explorer saying that I had a problems with redirects on my home page. There was 302 redirect and it was giving me information from my www domain rather then from non www domain. With your awesome help, this issue is sorted now and when I type in my non www domain, it doesn't give me that weird message anymore.
I have a different issue now.
For some reason when I enter non www domain it doesn't show links from www version.
I presume that this is affecting my site authority for non www version. Does it mean that link juice was not passed on to non www version from www version? Authority dropped by two points, but I'm not sure why.
I'm more interested to know why it doesn't show my links from www version on non www version. And is that affecting my sites rankings.
Thank you,
Regards,
Armands

I have tried to ask here few times, but it is pretty hard to get any guidance on navigation issue. If you could send me some information maybe on what you charge per hour on skype consults? I totally lost in what to do with my menu navigations as I think they are a bit hot mess now. Side bar, main bar, dropdowns etc.
Thanks,
A

By any chance do you know someone very good in WP field to consult about website navigation options for desktops and mobile devices?

I will pass this onto my developer.
Thank you,

Ok, I see now.
No, you don't have to go back to www-version. What is happening to you is just a crawl delay. It takes a while for MOZbot to "realize" the redirect, especially if you have https.
Basically, just wait. It will be showing properly eventually.
P.S. I noticed you have extra redirect if i go to www.a-fotography.co.uk - it redirects to non-www first, then does another redirect to https. You can easily eliminate this in htaccess. Kinda best practice.

Thanks Dmitrii,
I used to have this message, but thought this is a bad thing and was suggested to redirect www version to non www version. My current site is non www version.
so it is a-fotografy.co.uk
Do you think I should revert this back to www version? Why would I need to do this? Bit confused.
Thanks,
A

Hi there.
Ok, so, what is supposed to be happening is after you type in your non-www version, it should give you message like this (see attachment):
You entered the URL http://regexseo.com/ which redirects to http://www.regexseo.com/. Because it's likely to have more accurate metrics, we're showing data for the redirected URL instead. Click here to analyze http://regexseo.com/ instead?
If this is not happening, make sure that your non-www version 301 redirects to www. If it does, but you have made this change recently, then you just gotta wait to allow mozbot to crawl this redirect.
As for DA drop, it can be relative. Make sure that whenever you look at DA changes, you look at competition as well. Read this post by Rand: https://moz.com/community/q/da-pa-fluctuations-how-to-interpret-apply-understand-these-ml-based-scores
Hope this helps.

Twitter Data Does Not Appear in Open Site Explorer
Hi, I ran a search of more than 10 of my competitors in Open Site Explorer to have insights on their social activity. In every case I found "NA" marked against Twitter data. Does it mean there is no activity being performed by the urls against which i am running the query? Or it is something else? Wondering since there is much activity and data of course against Facebook and Google+ (same urls yeh!) Anybody could find time to share her/his knowledge please. Regards Tanveer

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 -
Open Site Explorer Social Stats Limited to 25 Results?
Hi Mozzers, I've exported a few open site explorer queries and was surprised to find that only 25 results returned social stats even for some really large websites. Is that a limitation in the search or a bug? I want to filter everything by twitter shares, so having a complete set of data for that stat is super important. Thanks! Tony
