How long does it take to get links indexed?

How long does it take Google Webmaster tools on average to detect links to my website? What about OSE? My site is fairly new (launched in January) and I've done some guest blogging -- I would think that some links from 3-4 weeks ago would be showing up by now. Am I just being impatient?

Hi, I made some posts in Blogspot 4 months ago. but still no link is showing in the Google Search Console. can anyone tell how long it take to show up in GSC? will google show that link? the posts I wrote on a metal bed frame.
thanks in advance. -
It depends on site. If it is well known then it might index it fast.
In Laser Marking Machine we are building links some of them are indexing and some of them are still not indexed. -
IT takes 8 to 10 weeks to index.

hello I have a website with page rank 4 I've noticed when update pages it update right away but when I update with a new post it goes live couple of hours if you aearch for it on Google with the key words you used so that means if you use your site to post useful information or news google is going to pick it up quick I also use Google Plus remember that is 100% google no middle man i have also noticed when i use g+ I get more hits so meaning I'll stick with google+ to post different information than facebook.
this is article I published that you can check out.

It depends on a variety of factors. You will notice that some people say that it takes hrs while others might say months. I recently highlighted these in my own blog post, but if you want something crawled and indexed faster you need the trust of that website to be increased. So feel free to share it on social media sites, build links to that page, or connect Google+ to it.

Andrew, let's site abc.com is the site linking to your from their homepage. If you really want to check, just see cache:abc.com in Google and see if the page in Google's cache contains your link. Google may or may not show all of your backlinks.
Considering your site is new, and the fact that you are doing Guest Posts (which in my opinion are the Directory Submissions of 2011-2012-2013 years), I would look at diversifying your link building tactics to be more natural. Really natural. Specially if you want this site to rank for a long period.
I hope this helps.

Hi Andrew, it takes only a few hours!... (also websites that post news will not wait 3 months ;)) But I think it depends on your trust and page rank which helps to get new links indexed faster. I have my own domain more than 10 years, got very few but good backlinks and never found time to optimize my own site but at least it has a PR4. I lately tested how blogging helpes to rank for keywords and made very good experiences. At night I posted a short article, submitted it with WMT ...fetch as google... And the next morning the new page ranked already very well !! So upload your page and submit it to google. And check next morning... It worked for my WP Blog. Thats my experience Best regards, Holger

How long does it take to get links indexed?
It depends upon on how often Google crawls the website and web pages concerned and whether or not they determine the content worthwhile adding to their index. You can perform a search in Google to see if the web pages containing your links have been indexed and check the last cache date.
**How long does it take Google Webmaster tools on average to detect links to my website? **
About 6 weeks on average, however Google does not include all your links in WMT
What about OSE?
The way Mozscape crawls and indexes the web means that deep pages are often not added to their OSE reports. If the links were only placed in the last 3-4 weeks it's unlikely Moz will havew found them all yet so I would hold on a couple more weeks.

I believe Matt Cutts once said that the backlinks in GWT are updated every 3 months or so. I'm not sure if the frequency has been changed since then. I don't know how often OSE updates.
It's best to keep track of your own backlinks. As long as the page that the link is on has been indexed by Google, then it is likely already being taken into account from the algorithm's perspective.

Why MOZ just index some of the links?
hello everyone i've been using moz pro for a while and found a lot of backlink oppertunites as checking my competitor's backlink profile.
Link Building | | seogod123234
i'm doing the same way as my competitors but moz does not see and index lots of them, maybe just index 10% of them. though my backlinks are commenly from sites with +80 and +90 DA like Github, Pinterest, Tripadvisor and .... and the strange point is that 10% are almost from EDU sites with high DA. i go to EDU sites and place a comment and in lots of case, MOZ index them in just 2-3 days!! with maybe just 10 links like this, my DA is incresead from 15 to 19 in less than one month! so, how does this "SEO TOOL" work?? is there anyway to force it to crawl a page?0 -
Disavowing Links
I need some advice... I've noticed our link profile has increased with many comments links --- something I certainly have not pursued manually. I'm new to disavowing links. However, before I go ahead and disavow them, I'd like to ask how harmful these links are and would you recommend this is something I can do myself (relatively novice SEO) or if you'd recommend someone who could do this for a reasonable cost. In one instance, the link from this comment thread is with the anchor text, "porn"... Certainly not something we want to rank for, haha! I look forward to your advice

What are he benefits of getting 200+ links from DA 40+ non-relevant websites?
I have a client who has an opportunity to sponsor a prestigious national organisation. In return, they will get 200+ links from the websites of the organisation's members. Most of which are DA 40+.None of the linking sites have any relevance to my client's industry.1) How likely do you think it is that Google will view these as paid links?2) Do you feel that there is potential harm in gaining this many non-relevant links in a short time-frame?3) The client wants me to quantify the ranking benefits of gaining these links and calculate a potential ROI. If that's even possible, how would you go about that?Thanks in advance

Internal Linking - Post links vs Side Bar Links behaving differently
Hi, I have a question regarding the internal linking behavior. My website is www.hindimeaning.com which is approx 3 years old. I have approx 450 posts. Now i have a widget on right sidebar "Popular posts". A widget below my posts "Related Posts". And a simple html CSS menu above the posts (I removed menu around 6 month before so currently it will not show.) I crawled my site with moz crawler (same are the result from google crawler as well) and it shows menus links as internal links. While sidebar widget "Popular posts" and "Related Posts" are not showing as internal links. If we talk theoretically what i learn till now is "every link on a page behaves as internal link". Then why the widget links are not showing as internal links. Thanks, Mahesh Kumar

What are your favorite tactics for getting links to money-pages?
We've got content marketing and other great tactics for getting links to content pages, but what are your favorite tactics for getting links to your money pages (i.e. product pages, landing pages, devices pages, sales letters, etc.) For example: For certain sites (especially some ecommerce sites), one can get a few backlinks by doing giveaways, contests, or events Some sites can give their product to bloggers to review If you're selling an exciting product and/or a product that appeals to a passionate user base, such tactics can work great. There are some sites that such tactics won't work very well for, though. For example, if you sell a boring or highly specialized product that bloggers won't want to review or giveaway as a contest prize - such as valves used in a specific commercial application, or an expensive B2B product that you can't really giveaway. Creativity is of course important, but sometimes it can only take you so far. What are your favorite strategies for getting quality backlinks to your "money pages" especially for sites that don't fit into the "ecommerce site selling cool stuff" category?

Etsy.com --Getting link juice through other pages on search results?
My sister has a store page on etsy.com where she sells home made crafts. And I want to help her rank higher on google with some of the other etsy stores. So i started to look at the other etsy store pages that are ranking well on google and found that they have a page authority between 48 to 52. So i looked at the backlinks of the ones ranking well on google with high page authority and found that many of their best links came from the internal search results page on etsy.com, and some only had one link from just an arbitrary etsy.com search page. I'm thinking this is because another product being listed on the seach page has a high page authority which then passes some of its link juice onto every other product on the page. But what is interesting is products are always being sold or getting added so even though you are on a search results page that happens to benifit from the link juice of another product the next time the page gets crawled you will be on a different search page. So i am thinking in order to maintain high page authority to you just have to have a lot of products listed so that there is a greater likely hood that you will find yourself on the same search page as another high authority page. I have not been doing SEO very long so i would love to hear what others think. I really have no idea, am i on the right track with this? (edited post) Thanks
