Designed new website with new domain has more than 24 million links over night on seomoz, how has this happend?
-
I recently added http://www.ard.uk.com to seomoz, its a new site with a new domain. on the first overview its saying it has more than 24 million links and has a mozrank over 7, how is this possible?
-
It appears that you have a sub-subdomain of the domain uk.com; not a unique domain.
Thus, your data reports that uk.com has 24 million links; but this data does not reflect links to your little subdomain of that bigger domain.
You may have meant to buy the domain http://www.ard.co.uk
{ www.ard. <-- the subdomain(s) } { uk <-- the domain } {.com <-- the TLD }
vs. { www. <-- the subdomain } { ard <-- the domain } { .co.uk <-- the TLD )

Hi Francesco,
The problem is that .uk.com is not a true TLD, like .uk.com, .com, or .org, it's actually a subdomain of the domain uk.com. So those 24 million links you are seeing are for the domain uk.com and not your site. The true TLD for the UK is .co.uk and not .uk.com. So your website is really just a subdomain of a very big domain. To get information for your site you will only be able to look at the subdomain information and not the root domain level.

This might sound daft but just to be sure, is this perhaps an old domain that you have purchased on an auction, or one which has expired and you have re-registered? If so you can certainly inherit links which other people have built up.

Hi Francesco,
I can't see why this is happening, but I'm going to fire it over to the customer services guys to take a look. Sorry the response is slow in coming - I'm still getting used to the new Q&A system.

i dont understand how
-
I see you have Domain Authority of 71! Thats mad!

most valuable link / phpBB • Free and Open Source Forum Software www.phpbb.com/

ive had a look on whois and carnt find any past history
-
Saying No Data Available for this URL when I tried to look at it on Open Site Explorer. Perhaps someone at SEOMOZ has spotted that there is an issue here?
I would look to see where it says the most valuable of the links are actually coming from.
-
Is the domain new or did it have a site on it maybe before you got it?
-
Ive just deleted the campaign started a fresh and its the same crazy!!
-
That def seems to be an issue - as daft as this may sound - could you double check the URL?
If thats OK - try creating a new campaign and see if that replicates - if it does, it may be a bug with the campaign tool and one for the moz staff to look into.
-
this should load up the image, im probably doing somthing daft but ive checked everything and it all looks ok
-
Could you add a screenshot - I may be being thick - but I still dont get where you areseeing info - a screenshot may help a bit
-

Are the SEOMoz queries banned by Google?
Hi: In our company, we have notified that Google is banning our IP due to massive queries under the same IP. It is caused mainly by local softwares installed in PCs or some plugins of Firefox. We think that SEOmoz don´t causes this due to its tool uses its own IP and servers, not ours. We would like your opinion about this. Thank you,

I know that there are links to my site, but nothing shows up. My website is www.mullinsgeoffrey.com. I have tried with and without the www. I am using wordpress for this site, but competitors are as well, and there authority seems fine. is there a hidden setting somewhere that is screwing things up?

Competitive Link finder tool
I tried to use competitive link finder tool. it says that it will identify 10 most important links that my competitor get that I do not. The results that I get are inconsistent with linkscape tool. For example my competitor has a link on www lawyer-links dot info Google rank of that site is 1. Is that really one of their most important links?

Is DA a reliable domain metric?
I use DA and PA every day for reporting, researching and most of the time it's a pretty good metric to compare domains and pages but recently I did an experiment and I was surprised when I saw the results. Two months ago I "link bombed" one of my old, unused websites with thousands of spammy blog comment links. Before the attack, its DA was 21 with a few hundred links. In August, after the recent OSE update I checked the website again and I was quite surprised to see DA 61 as a results of 8340 links. A DA value over 60 is considered pretty strong and it's interesting to see that spammy blog comment links could change it so significantly. Someone who doesn't know the history of the domain might get interested in advertising on such websites because the mozbar shows a high DA value. I know it's difficult to algorithmically differentiate between spammy and valuable blogs but a future OSE update could focus on this issue. Let me know what you think.

Internal Links
Hi Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on the internal links metric in the Linkscape report. I have run the report for a number of sites that I know have internal links in them but often get the result of just 1 internal link when I run the Linkscape report and I am not sure why Thanks
