Redirect not picking up any link juice

[adamgthorndike]

Hi,

We recently had a domain name change, as we had an established site we had all pages redirected to the new domain.

This was over a month ago but despite the redirect SEOmoz doesn't recognise any links to and from the site.

Is this due to simply time duration and SEOmoz can't pick up on any redirected info, or could there be a problem with the redirect?

Thanks,

Adam

Hi Adam,

It is likely that it's just a time issue. OSE updates about once a month, and the last update was February 29th. The crawl was completed before that date, and may have been completed before all of your redirections. The next update should be released on April 10th, and that should have much better results for you.

The OSE will pick the redirect, but when checking your new domain using OSE do not expect to see links that are pointing to your old domain. This doesn't mean your old redirected domain isn't passing any links juice. OSE will show your old domain as a 301 redirect to your new domain.

I am fairly new to the SEOmoz tools, myself (but I like them a lot) did you trying running it with and without www.?  Sorry - just trouble shooting.  I have noticed with some domains that if you run through Open Site Explorer without the www it returns 0 links but when you add the www it finds the links.

Yeah, Google picks it up but the domain doesn't return anything on here.

I will have to find out about the 301s, but is there anything else that could be causing this?

Interesting, does Google pick them up? (using a links: search or checking webmaster tools).  I hate to ask but they are 301s, correct?
