Unsolved how do I check the outbound links?
-
Hello everyone,
I have a question about the links explorer: how do I check the outbound links? I have a website that I want to know its outbound links. Do I have to buy the Moz Pro method for that? -
We use Screaming Frog for this, it also shows us if there are any 404 errors

If you're referring to Moz's Link Explorer tool, you can use it to check outbound links from a website without purchasing the Moz Pro method. Here's how you can do it:
- Go to the Link Explorer tool page on Moz's website.
- Enter the website's URL that you want to check outbound links for in the search bar.
- Once the tool generates the results, scroll down to the "Outbound Links" section.
Here you can see a list of all the outbound links from the website, along with other details like their Domain Authority and Page Authority.
You can use Moz's Link Explorer for free with some limitations on the number of queries you can make per month. However, if you need to perform more in-depth analysis and access advanced features, you may need to consider purchasing the Moz Pro method. -
@morex Hey everyone,
Thanks in advance for any insight on this. I've been researching it quite a bit on Google and haven't found anything yet.
In Analytics, under our pages report, we're getting a lot of pages that look like this:
www.daisylimo.com/https://www.daisylimo.com
Would you have any thoughts on how to fix this? These pages don't exist...I'm at such a loss.

You can do that on most SEO tools by checking outbound links from your site.
-
There is a limit of 10 free searches on Moz free account. If you want to check more you have to go with Moz Pro. And as @Fabian001 told you can use free tools. There is one more tool keyword explorer which you can use to check backlinks from SERP result. Simply install this extension and you are good to go.

Hi @ZeonAley you can use a couple of free chrome extensions for example
- Moz Bar - helps to visually highlight outbound links on your page
- SEOquake, details down outbound links from a page
Also can consider the free screaming frog application. Allows you to crawl your website and find outbound links.

Solved Moz Link Explorer slow to find external links
I have a site with 48 linking domains and 200 total links showing in Google Search Console. These are legit and good quality links. Since creating a campaign 2 months ago, Moz link explorer for the same site only shows me 2 linking domains and 3 total links. I realise Moz cannot crawl with the same speed and depth as Google but this is poor performance for a premium product and doesn't remotely reflect the link profile of the domain. Is there a way to submit a sitemap or list of links to Moz for the purpose of crawling and adding to Link Explorer?

URL column of Link Explorer reports do not have the protocol (http or https)
I exported from Link Explorer. In the URL column, there is no protocol for each URL. Isn't the protocol part of what makes a url? I'm crawling each with http:// and https:// but it feels like this info could just be in the report. Am I missing a step?

The New Link Explorer (which will replace Open Site Explorer) is Now in Beta
Howdy Moz friends, Today, the Moz team is making a new tool -- Link Explorer -- available in private beta for Moz Pro subscribers (including those taking a free trial). The tool is still a little ways out from public launch, but we wanted to get your feedback to help make it the best product it can be. What's Link Explorer? In essence, it's a replacement for Open Site Explorer (Moz's tool for link discovery, competitive analysis, and link building) that addresses many of its most pernicious challenges, such as: Daily updates - no longer will you need to wait a month or two to see a new DA score or the links you built last week. Link Explorer updates every 24 hours with all the new links we've discovered that day, and gives a new DA score each night. A MUCH bigger index - OSE has always been known for having quality links, but quantity has been an issue. No longer. The new tool's link index is more than 20 times larger than Open Site Explorer's, covering trillions of links across hundreds of billions of pages, while maintaining a focus on high quality domains and pages. Additional functionality - new graphs (like link growth over time), new charts (like gained+lost links), new filters and sorts, and some new kinds of data coming soon. Improved metrics - Domain Authority and Page Authority have both been upgraded to have better correlations with Google's rankings (and they now update every 24 hours) Insanely fast - page load times on the new tool are almost as fast as Google's results 🙂 Less time waiting means more time to dig into results Link Tracking Lists - check a box next to any links of interest and you can build lists in the tool to track them over time, see whether/when they link, prioritize your outreach efforts, and (in the future) get aggregated data and alerts about those links There's much more to come, but we'd love for you to check out Link Explorer, find bugs, report things you love (and don't), and help us make it the best possible product for you and your teams. You can leave feedback here in this Q+A thread, email help@moz.com, or send feedback through the feedback form in Link Explorer.

Inbound links for https://www.example.com versus just example.com
Hi all, Wondering the difference between the Inbound Links stats for https://www.example.com versus only using example.com. When I type in the https:// version, I see 3 Spam Flags - for the example.com version, there are none. There are also spammy links pointing to the https version as opposed to the non-https version when I use this tool: https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/ Anyone know the difference and which should be regarded when fixing spam issues?

How can I tell what pages have links TO this page?
Hello, Mozzers! My client has a rather messy situation, with redirects for HTTP vs. HTTPS, and two different home pages, both in subdirectories. I could explain the whole setup, but I don't think it's relevant for my question, which is this: OSE is showing three links to the page in question, but doesn't tell me WHAT those links are. Am I just missing the information somewhere? Please see screenshot for details. Thanks so much! ~ Scott view?usp=sharing

Why is Open Site Explorer Showing me Spammy Links That I Already Removed?
Every two months or so, I like to download the OSE list of all the backlinks passing equity to my site. I do this so I can see which spammy links I need to try and remove. However, I see that OSE is still showing me links that I already removed...Either A) the page that is being linked to is 404-ed B) the spammy website that was linking doesn't exist anymore or C) the spammy site still exists, but the link is GONE. Why is OSE still spidering these sites and links? Does that mean Google is still spidering these links? Should I disavow them to be safe? Thank you! P.S We are not experiencing any drastic drops in traffic or penalties at the moment.
