@fassi34562 We are encountering a similar problem with our SEO Xidmeti . Despite generating several backlinks from various legitimate sources, the Moz tool fails to crawl or display these backlinks in its listings. However, other tools are able to recognize and show these backlinks regardless of when they were created.

Hey, this is exactly what I experience with cv formasi. During the first crawl of the campaign, the tool returned normal almost all links visible compared to GSC. Then it almost stopped working. I wonder if it is something to do with the number of pages set to crawled when you just create a campaing. From now on I always set the number of pages maximum, see if it works

Hi Bloggers123,
If you follow the directions in the thread above to create a Link Tracking List and add the specific URLs of any links you are aware of then the Moz crawler will crawl those links within a few days.

Hi, everyone. I am writing on behalf of Elseo and suffering from the same technical challenge. We are generating several backlinks from various sources (not spammy), but Moz tool does not crawl or show my backlinks on its listing. However, other tools does crawl and show no matter the date of the backing generated.

Hi Bob!
I added some information about Link Tracking Lists for fassi in this thread which I think will be helpful for you too.
Happy Link Tracking!!

Hi fassi34562!
Such great information from Robin!
The good news is, that if you already know that links to your website exist and you know where they come from, you can actually help Link Explorer to find them more quickly by adding them to a Link Tracking List!
Adding a link to the Link Tracking List will tell the Moz crawler to check the page for links to the Target URL. Your target URL can be a specific page, or you can use the domain URL. The important thing to remember if you are using a Link Tracking List to confirm existing links is to use specific page URLs in your list - this will make sure the crawler goes right to the page where the link exists. Otherwise, it may take time for the crawler to eventually get to the exact page within the site as Robin explained above
Once the link is found (and as long as the page is not blocked) you will see the icons change in your list to show that the link has been found. You can also make notes so you have a record of any important information.
Here's a Guide to using Link Tracking Lists for all kinds of SEO tasks!!
Hope that helps!

Hi there, unfortunately we can't really rely on any one tool to know all of our backlinks, even Google!
When someone links to your site, they could be doing it from the New York Times, or they could be doing it from a tiny site which they just created. The only way any tool (Google, Moz etc.) can get a list of backlinks is by continually accessing a page, finding every link on that page, going to all the linked pages, finding all the links on those pages etc.
With something like the New York Times, these tools know the site, they know to keep coming back to check every so often, so it's more likely they identify the link going to your site. With a tiny site someone has just created - it's much harder for these tools to even know the site exists, never mind know the specific page on that site which is linking to yours. Even if a tool has a massive database of the internet, there are trillions of web pages and no one database will have a record of them all.
The next best thing is for us to use as many tools as we can to get as complete a picture of the issue as we can. I often try to check;
- Moz
- Google Search Console (this will only give you the first 1K)
- AHrefs
- SEMRush
- Majestic SEO.
You'll need to dedupe the different lists but between them, they should stand a better chance of finding backlinks to your site. If they don't find anything then it's likely that the pages linking to your site are either quite out-of-the-way or they are in some way blocked from crawlers.
In terms of tracking keywords, Moz does allow you to include a keyword list which it'll give you ranking information for over time, you can also track keywords in Stat (search "getstat"), and SEMRush and AHRefs will give you ranking information too.
Hope that helps!

I also notice that not all my back-links show in the MOZ reporting. Many do, but not all. I'd like to know all of them so I can put any spamy ones in my disavow file.

Backlinks and SPAM
I was doing some back link review of competitors and I have noticed that many of our competition have 300+ do follow back links from Justia.com and an additional 300+ do follow links from law.cornell.edu (they share the same database). The links on Justia are from different pages and they are all going to the root of our competitors site. So the questions are as follows; 1: For the purpose of SEO is this considered SPAM 2: If not SPAM, then does it have a positive effect on the competitions website and should I attempt to emulate for my client. Thanks in advance. -Jeff

Backlinks from different TLD's impact
Hi MOZ'ers, I'm wondering what the impact of different TLD backlinks is for same language pages. For example: we're on a website that has a German national TLD .de. We're earning backlinks and they are coming from .de as well as .ch (Switzerland) or .at (Austria) pages. What would be more desirable, and how big would you consider the difference? Looking forward to hearing your responses 🙂 Justen

When do my links show up?
For the last two weeks I have been working on linkbuilding. I have downloaded competitors link reports and started contacting or submitting links. In the last two weeks I have gotten about 50-60 or so. In the newest report it shows I went up four c-blocks. Why is that? It is kind of discouraging.

How to remove backlinks?

My websites are not penalized at this moment, however I do want to avoid this at all costs. What can I do? Could a backlink from an expired domain penalize my site?
