Which backlinks sites to use for full competitive research
-
Hello,
Doing competitive research for really gentle basic link building campaign.
Which sites do I need to get a backlink list from besides open site explorer to be most successful?
Thanks.

In addition to OSE, ahrefs or SEMrush are awesome tools that can be used to reverse engineer a competitors link profile.
If you haven't already done so, you may also want to review Rand's whiteboard Friday about getting your first 50 links to make sure you're got all the low hanging fruit before diving into other kinds of link building.

Key words that my target segment uses
Using SEOMoz (or what other tools do you recommend), how can I find the most common key words that my target segment uses in Google search - about any subject? Say my target segment of customers is teens aged 13-18 in Mexico (using Spanish) or in Turkey (using Turkish language). Thank you in advance 🙂

How do I delete labels from the list of labels we've used?
How do we delete labels from the pulldown in moz, that we already created, but no longer use. The function "delete labels" only deletes labels off of certain keywords. But we cant figure out how to remove unused labels completely from the list of labels. Thanks, Thanks, Andrew

Open Site Explorer
Hi - open site explorer always showed backlinks to my site's blog for Wordpress, a couple of edu sites and others that ranked somewhat high. These are no longer being shown. However, they do show up on some other backlink check tools. Does anyone know why and if this should be a concern? Thanks. Don www.uniquegiftsanddecor.com

Any tools for scraping blogroll URLs from sites?
This question is entirely in the whitehat realm... Let's say you've encountered a great blog - with a strong blogroll of 40 sites. The 40-site blogroll is interesting to you for any number of reasons, from link building targets to simply subscribing in your feedreader. Right now, it's tedious to extract the URLs from the site. There are some "save all links" tools, but they are also messy. Are there any good tools that will a) allow you to grab the blogroll (only) of any site into a list of URLs (yeah, ok, it might not be perfect since some sites call it "sites I like" etc.) b) same, but export as OPML so you can subscribe. Thanks! Scott

How often is Open Site Explorer updated?
Or perhaps my question is actually how often does the seomoz bot crawl the web? I ran some benchmark link counts for a number of websites about this time last month and I noticed when I went to update them for this month the data is the same. Thanks.
