What analysis exists for Out Bound Links (OBL) from your site
-
Hi
Maybe I am missing this but I can''t seem to see it.
I am doing some analysis on a client's site and want to get a csv list of links from the client's site to external sites. So what I am looking for is a list of Out Bound Links (OBL) from the client's site.
I want to run these past a black list / bad link neighborhood checking script I have.
This would actually be a nice feature in SEO Moz Pro, unless it actually already does and I am just missing it or not setting filters correctly.
Thanks
Trevor

Thanks Gil, that is a good tool.
I hope the Moz team introduce something like this into their software.

Gil...great answer I learn something everyday.

Trevor,
I was thinking, there must be another solution.
Here is what I found : http://www.bad-neighborhood.com/text-link-tool.htm
It's interesting because it goes one level deeper, by scanning the destination page.
For instance if you have a link to somecasinoonline.com they will check that page and try see how many questionable links are there.
It does a pretty good job apparently, but does not include text anchors

Hi Thanks for the quick response.
I like the Wintzell.net tool, and I run Linux (without wine) so the Snafu tool won't run on my system. I prefer to use a web service anyway.
Does SEO Moz Pro not have this tool? It seems like an obvious facility for it to have? Links from a site to another site can be very important too, so it would seem logical to be able to analyze the links that you have a lot of control over to make sure they are not linking to bad neighborhoods.
It would be ideal to be able to get a .csv download from Moz Pro link analysis for the links from your site to other sites. It would list the external URLs being linked to and form which internal pages they are linked from, along with the anchor text. It could even automatically show which of the sites were black listed or classed as bad link neighborhoods.
It would also seem logical to show which percentage of your back link (IBL) profile was black listed or considered a bad link neighborhood.
Thanks

Trevor,
I think this question was asked before;
See http://www.seomoz.org/q/tool-to-see-outbound-links-on-a-site
Two tools are listed :
- http://www.wintzell.net/seo-tools/domain-outbound-links-check.php an online tool, will give you a fairly simple list
- http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html#Description a downloadable program, will give you a list with anchor text
Best
Gil

Joomla Opencart Duplicate Link Issue
With a few recent catalog changes my client is having tons of duplicate content issues. The most peculiar is one that I cannot see visibly on the site pages. This page: http://www.CLIENTDOMAIN.com/catalog/lights.html shows to have several duplicate content issues with URLs such as: http://www.CLIENTDOMAIN.com/catalog/lights/Lamp-DRW.htmlhttp:/www.CLIENTDOMAIN.com - where the domain is basically added to the end of the first URL. Has anyone seen this? Any fixes, plugins or thoughts? Thanks,

How do you determine how much a link is worth?
Obviously things like Mozrank, domain authority, relevancy signals, authority signals, and other fundamentals are a great starting ground, but I was wondering how people put value on a links. How much time is a link from a page rank of x or a moz rank of y worth. How much time, money (not in terms of paid links, but in terms of manpower, copyrighting required, etc.) is a link of a certain rank worth. Obviously there is no exact answer to this question, but I'm very curious to see what people have to say in this regard.

Why Doesn't Open Site Explorer show Domain Links from Twitter, WordPress or Feedburner?
I commented on a few blog posts and wanted to see the domain authority of those sites. When I look at our domain links, I notice the links are not there from the blogs (which I now know I have to give it time to show up). But I also noticed that domains with links to our website (regularly) were not showing up either. i .e Twitter, WordPress and Feedburner. I know we have links in these locations, especially Twitter. Why would these domains not show up? Much thanks!

List ranking analysis for all keywords?
I would love to see the option of having the ranking analysis listed for all my keywords! As it it now I have to click and get the numbers one by one and manually create a spreadsheet in order to have an overview of which keywords to pursue. I want to see my google ranking for each keyword next to information on how many people search for that term (in my country of choice - google.xxx) and the keyword competition in % Please tell me there's a way to do this and save me a truckload of time!

Is canonical link enough?
Hi SEOmozers! I have a question. SEOmoz analysis report me some duplicate that I thought I had fix. I can give a concrete example. This page: http://www.nuxeo.com/en/about/events/dec2011training-boston/moreinfo is reported as having 6 duplicated URL in the tool. When I click on 6, SEOMOZ tells me "Our crawl bots are getting their joints greased to fetch you even better data. Sorry for the delay!" And on the page itself, I placed a canonical link to follow recommandation. rel="canonical" href="http://www.nuxeo.com/en/about/events/apr2012training-boston" /> As a result I am curious why I would have this reported as duplicate by SEOmoz. Is this a bug? Thanks for feedback!

Why would PA be 1 (0 links from 0 root domains) if it's linked to internally?
Question just about said it all: I've seen a number of pages on sites that have a PA of 1 (with the metrics being 0 links from 0 root domains) when I can see on the site that it is linked to internally - from the main nav (which is CSS, not Javascript) and also from the footer, if not other places. Why would this be? Update: upon looking further at the site, it appears that there's some kind of redirect going on, where the page linked to from the nav actually redirects to the real page. Would that eliminate PA, even if it's a 301? And additionally, is whatever is causing this lack of PA a reflection of how Google would relate to the page? Thanks, Aviva
