OSE Problems
-
I'm experiencing severe delays trying to export OSE data into CSV over the past couple of days. Relatively small reports I ran 2 days ago are still pending!
Has anyone else noticed this?
Also my campaign rankings have not updated since 24th April - anyone else?

They were ironed out for quite some time, and just yesterday we started having some problems with the CSV export. We're working on it right now, though it may be a few days to get all of the backlog caught up and things back up to speed. It is currently taking a couple of days for reports to generate right now. We're in the process of adding an alert to OSE to let people know about this.

Just wondered if those bugs have been ironed out at all 19 months later - I can't believe the delay exporting to CSV, hours and hours waiting to download a report that took seconds to generate. Any update?

Thanks Alex! I'm liking it too.

Thanks Keri - I'll keep an eye out for it.

We do know about the delays. We have a blog post being written right now that outlines some of the known bugs that we have, and that should help explain everything. We know how frustrating this is, and apologize for that.

That was what I figured as well. I waited a bit before coming here to poke around and see if anything had been said.

Yes - me too. I suspect that yesterday's link scape update is causing issues, but it'd be good to know what's going on!

I've been having the same issue. I'm also now getting the "Ouch something went south" warning when trying to run search.

Is anyone else having a problem with OSE not displaying any data except for domain and page authority?

Sitewide links causing problem
Hello, I've had a couple of people look at the backlink profile for nlpca(dot)com and tell me that there were a lot of sitewide links with non-branded anchor text. The spreadsheet is [here](http://thewealthymind.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/anchor-text.xls). Actually, because of our company name, all sitewide links have branded anchor text except for http://www.iepdoc.nl

http://www.ionut-ciurea.com The term "NLP" is not ranking for us, we should be on page 1 or 2. Also, we used to be sitelinked for "NLP California" and aren't anymore. Notice that "nlpca" splits into "nlp" and "ca" for California. Could you look and see if it is just those 2 sites and if all we need to do is contact them to change to branded anchor text. Or if it's something else to get back our rankings for "NLP" and our sitelinks for "NLP California" Thank you0 -
HTTPS on OSE
Just wondering if any of the Moz team can give us a heads up when open site explorer will support HTTPS?

In OSE "Followed Linking Root Domains" = "links from homepages"
In OSE's, "Followed Linking Root Domains" are defined as "The number of root domains that have at least one followed link to a page or domain." Does this mean that if one of my competitors has, let's say, 1000 followed linking root domains, they have a link pointing to them on the homepage of 1000 other sites? Thanks for your help!

OSE Advanced Reports best practices
I'm curious how people use the OpenSiteExplorer Advanced Reports tab. It seems very powerful. What do you use it for? In particular, I see that it has choices for 'same C block' and 'different C block'. Those seem useful to find C blocks that my competitors have links from that I do not, but I'm not totally clear on how to construct the query. Any help or best practices would be appreciated. Thanks!

Total number of links in OSE not clear to me.
I have compared 3 sites in open site explorer. The total # of links in the subdomain metrics report for one of the urls is 46,787. Where is that number coming from? There's 125 total external followed links and 132 total external links. I cannot see the number for internal links, but I'm sure it isn't 40000+. So 46,787 is the result of the addition of what? Thanks a lot for your help, and sorry for this newbie question 🙂

Tons of Crappy links in new OSE (Open Site Explorer)
I am starting to miss the old OSE. I've found that for a lot of the pages on our site, the new OSE is showing WAY more links and most of them are garbage nonsense links from China, Russia, and the rest of the internet Wild West. For instance, in the old OSE, this page used to show 9 linking domains: http://www.uncommongoods.com/gifts/by-recipient/gifts-for-him It now shows 454 links. Some of the new links (about 5 of them) are legitimate. The other 400+ are garbage. Some are porn sites, most of them don't even open a web page, they just initiate some shady download. I've seen this for other sites as well (like Urban Outfitters) This is making it much harder for me to do backlink analysis on bc I have no clue how many "Normal" links they have. Is anyone else having this problem ? Any way to filter all this crap out ? See attached screenshot of the list of links I'm getting from OSE. NHXnn
