Why is Open site Explorer showing: No Data Available for this URL
-
Hi there, Im having a few problems getting my site www.incarmotorfactors.co.uk up and running on SEOMoz and im not sure what im doing wrong.Firstly seomoz shows 2 links for my site... Which is wrong. Google shows alot more.
However the most noticable problem so far is Opensite explorer. When i type in the web address it shows
"No Data Available for this URL"
The site is more then a year old and has a few links, can anybody tell me what the problem may be?
-
Hah! Well, yeah, effectively.
As I say the linkscape crawl isn't as effective/deep as Google's so you'll need a couple of higher profile links to get picked up.
Certainly getting more good links can't hurt
-
So basically are you suggesting that i need to get busy obtaining better quality back links for my site?
-
Can't see anything wrong at first glance, your meta robots is fine, but I can't see robots.txt, though I doubt you have anything preventing a crawl there.
It would seem that Roger simply hasn't crawled your site or found more than those 2 links, the SEOmoz crawl is not the same as Google's crawl so one would expect differences. The links I can see come from reasonably obscure Yell pages and forums so those pages may have not been crawled by Linkscape and therefore won't show up.
I would take it at face value and assume that there hasn't been enough links found to warrant a crawl yet. I would also guess that by adding it to the campaign manager that it will appear in the next updated index (though still may not show many links).

Duplicate URLs
A campaign that I ran said that my client's site had some 47,000+ duplicate pages and titles. I was wondering how I can possibly set that many 301 redirects, but a Moz help engineer said it has a lot to do with session IDs. See this set of duplicate URLs: http://www.lumberliquidators.com/ll/c/engineered-hardwood-flooring (clearly the main URL for the page)

http://www.lumberliquidators.com/ll/c/engineered-hardwood-flooring?PIPELINE_SESSION_ID=0ac071ed0ad4af292684b0746931158f To a crawler, that looks like 4 different pages, when it's clear that they're actually all different URLs for the same page. I was wondering if some of you, maybe with experience in site architecture, would have insight into how to address this issue? Thanks Alan0 -
Why are my month old links not showing in WMT or OSE?
Hey Everyone! I've been working hard on boosting my ranking after launching my new site 2 months ago. I realize that this process normally takes some time however I've come across a questions that I'm not sure I know that answer to... I had some really solid back links added about a month ago but nothing is showing up yet in WMT on them. When I run an OSE I don't see any links there (not even under newly discovered). Can someone please help with some insight on why they might now be showing. Is it just a time thing or should I be doing something different?Any insight will be very helpful. Thanks

Using Seomoz for Site Evaluation am I up to par ?
Just wanted to see how people using the seomoz bar would rate a four month old site with Domain-Homepage Authority of 27 Mozrank of 5.08 and Moztrust of 5.65 . I've read up on all the factors but just wanted to know if Im up to par on building a great site thats search engine friendly. Inner pagers are on a PA of 20 and around the same mozrank and moztrust levels of +- 5.

Google and Bing appear to accept it OK Thanks

Open Site explorer (last 1-3 updates) shows new and wierd results
Hi Moz'ers! I have a questions for you guys. Can you explain why the website "Netspiren" has a lower "domain Authority" than "Duft og Natur"? See screenshot. I know it's a tough question without a detailed analysis, but looking at OSE's data, does the mozrank,moztrust, C-block don't reflect the power of the Domain Authority. What's you take? BTW: "Netspiren" has always had more and better links, and also had a higher Domain Authority. Something about the Domain Authority changed since the past 1-3 OXE updates. Looking forward for your take on this! Have a good weekend! mnRPI.png

Why would Open Site Explorer say some internal links are images when in the source code they're text?
Hi, All! I was looking at OSE for one of my client's site's pages, and I saw that all internal links were said to be images. I was pretty sure their menu was CSS, and all the links were text. So I did "fetch as Googlebot" and looked in the resultant code of one of the homepage to see the main navigation bar. The navigation link for one of those pages looked like this: `onmouseover="doMenu2on(this);">[](http://www.mysite.com/solution_sub.asp?ID=8)` [``` <code>![](images/arrow6.gif)Anchor Text Here</code> ```](http://www.mysite.com/solution_sub.asp?ID=8) ``` The nav link for a page that does show internal anchor text in OSE looks like this: onmouseover="doMenu2on(this);">[](http://www.mysite.com/solution.asp?ID=5) [```

<code>Anchor Text Here</code> So there is an image in the link (it's the little arrow before the text to indicate a sub-category), but the anchor text comes right after it. Is Linkscape (and therefore potentially Google) seeing them as two different links to the same page and only counting the first? But it's all wrapped within the same <a></a>tags. Any ideas on if this is a bug in Linkscape, or a real issue, and what should be done? Thanks! Aviva``0
