How can the differences between Moz and Majestic's link totals be explained?
-
Hello,
Newbie here so this might be a really daft question....
We've a few accounts and are trialling different software - across a few campaigns, we're seeing big differences in link numbers from different software (namely Moz and Majestic).
I'm assuming there is a really good reason for it - just can't find what it is!
Thanks in advance!

Can you give an example where SEOmoz and OSE are different? I'm not quite sure I follow you, since Open Site Explorer is an SEOmoz product.
-
Quick question then - how come Moz and OSE are different?
Any help appreciated!

Neither crawls the whole internet, same with bing Yahoo and Google each have a different index.
SEOMoz tries to crawl the pages that matter. I would suggest the links you find in most indexes are the better ones.

Can you save a keyword in its own group?
Hi everyone, I have been doing competitive research, but after researching several hundred keywords, I realized that they were all combined. This made it difficult and time consuming to do further research because they were all grouped together. Is there any way to create each group of keywords in their own separate group? I see that you can create campaigns, but that asks for a comparison of websites. As I do not have a website that I want to track or compare, I prefer not to do that. Thanks so muck for the help. Don

MOZ Starter Crawl Not Working
Hello, I just added a new subdomain as one of my campaigns on MOZ. The starter crawl report keeps coming back to me with just one page crawled (it should crawl up to 250 pages). I've deleted and added this subdomain three times and it continues to present me with this problem.I've even waited a week for the full crawl report but that also showed just one page crawled. Does anybody know why this is happening? Thanks!

How can I reduce the number of links on a page and keep the site easy to navigate?
The SEOmoz Site Crawl indicates that we have too many on page links on over 9,970 pages. This is an ecommerce site with a large number of categories. I have a couple of questions regarding this issue: How important is the "too many on page links" factor to SEO? What are some methods of reducing the number of links when there are a large number of categories? We have main categories with dropdown menus currently and have found that they are used to browse and shop the store.
