No results with Link Analysis
-
So I have been working with a domain since November last year that still shows no improvement in regards to the link analysis. I am baffled because we have gotten them onto the first page on Google for a few of the keywords we are optimizing. Any help with this is greatly appreciated and I am a noob so definitely open to learning. Thanks in advance to all of you.
Domain in question - www.modernportablerefrigeration.com
Domain is currently on a shared server if that makes any difference.
Cordially,
Todd Richard

Hi Todd,
The metrics you're seeing are from February. OSE is usually updated monthly, but we had technical problems and it's been seven weeks since the last update. There's a new update due on April 27th, and you should see some changes then.

This is a screenshot of what I am talking about, also thanks everyone for trying to help the noob.

Under link analysis it shows "1" for domain authority and zeros all the way down the rest. Thanks for the feedback everyone, I guess if everything is working it might not matter, but it is unnerving and annoying to be building and building with no results in one little area. The funny thing is all tools except Webmaster Tools shows the one for domain authority and zeros for the rest, or that the data is unavailable.

Open Site Explorer does not have the horsepower to crawl the entire internet like google does. With less than infinite resources, OSE attempts to crawl many important sites and avoids many directories and other low page rank sites. If the links you have built are lower quality (like many of mine), they may not show up in OSE. That doesn't mean that google doesn't see them or that they don't help with keyword ranking. Google webmaster tools shows 4x more linking domains to my site than OSE, but OSE shows nearly all the important ones.
Hope that helps. Remember that the goal is ranking on google, not OSE. OSE is just a tool.

Hi Todd,
A site can still rank for the keywords you are optimising for with on-page alone - if the area is niche enough (or the other pages have poor on-page SEO).
If you mean that you are appearing on page one and you are not getting people link back to you organically... That's just life
If you mean you have built links and they are not showing up using Open Site Explorer then either Roger has not crawled the site with your links on or the index has not updated (IIRC OSE's site index gets updated once a month).

Link juice and 301 redirects
Hi, I have a page with a lot of links going to it. I want to change the name of the page (thereby changing the URL). I can do a 301 redirect, but does a 301 send the "link juice" to the new page? The page in question is www.aerlawgroup.com/dui.html, and I want to change it to www.aerlawgroup.com/dui-lawyer.html. Thank you in advance for your time.

Search results indexed
Hi there, is is bad practice in seo to have search results for products indexed? For example a search result of holidays to Ibiza, with lots of deals coming up? its a search query url that would be indexed, with just an image and price per product on the page, with about 10 per page? Any advice appreciated.

Too many links? Do links to named anchors count (ie page#nameanchor)?
Hi, I have an internal search results page that contains approx 200 links in total. This links to approx 50 pages. Each result listing contains a link to the page in the format /page.html and also has 3 more links (for each listing) to named anchors within the page. eg /page.html#section1, /page.html#section2, /page.html#section3 etc. Should i remove the named anchors to keep my links per page under the Seomoz suggested max of 100? Will it impact crawl-ability or link juice being passed? Thanks in advance for your response.

Too many links on my site
Hi there everybody, I am a total SEO newbie and i am burning with questions. I had my site crawled and found out that it contains too many links. The reason is that it is a site where I constantly write news and articles and each one of them is a new Joomla item, thus a new link. I actually thought lots of content is good for SEO. How am I supposed to reduce the link amount?

How Does Link Juice Pass?
Say there is a link on an authoritative site to my site, and the link points to www.mysite.com. However, I have set all URL variations (https://mysite.com, www.mysite.com, mysite.com, etc.) to redirect to http://mysite.com automatically. Does the link juice from this authoritative site pass through the www.mysite.com URL to http://mysite.com automatically due to the automatic redirect? I guess my question is does the link juice automatically pass on to the destination URL, even though it is not the original URL the authoritative site pointed to?
