Conflict in reported link data
-
I have a competitor in a campaign - the campaign report shows 181 linked domains
BUT - the site explorer report shows only 15 linked domains.
Which is correct? And if the site explorer is correct - how do we fix the campaign report?

Which is correct? Both
And if the site explorer is correct - how do we fix the campaign report? You don't as it is accurate.
Your first 2 attachments are broken links. The issue can be seen in your 3rd and 4th attachment. The OSE report is showing the links to "this page" meaning your home page. Your campaign reflects all links to your entire site.

Rankings Report Tool
Hi, One of my campaigns gets updated every Thursday, but the keywords ranking hasn't been updated yesterday. The last update was made on 28th February. Is there anything wrong with this tool? Thanks in advance.

Missing a ton of data as of late
Regarding the CSV export of site crawl issues. I have noticed that resently several of the crawl reports are issing vital information specifically the "refferer". I my mind it's kinda hard for roger to find a page without having a refferer so what is happening I have no idea. have anyone else experienced this?

Competitive analysis of inbound links
I am trying to figure out how to best use SeoMoz tools to do some competitive analysis of inbound links. With the site explorer tool I can "compare Link Metrics" I see that a competitor is beating me on External Followed Links and Total Linking Root domains. I want to dig further into this data and see how these are distributed. What I am really after is which root domains are sending them the most links. Knowing that 20k of their links are coming from 5 specific root urls would be great to know. Is there anywhere that I can see this data. Ideal column headers would be: Linking Root Domain of Followed Links (from this root domain) Linking Domain Authority The ability to drill down from there into specific links would be mind blowing. Is there any way to browse this type of data in SeoMoz?

Why is the linking root domains count not increasing
For the last month I have been tracking my backlinks thru open site explorer. Over the same period I have gone on a minor link building exercise via social media, some directories as well as writing fresh new content for the site. However, my backlink count has increased in the Rank Tracker tool but my root linking domains have remain at the same level. Is there a lag or is this because some of these site are not in the open site index? To be specific - I have personally setup follow links from sites like tumblr, posterous, stumbleUpon, delicious and other like these. Would really like to understand the limitations so I can take the appropriate action. Thanks

No follow Internal Links
Hello, I am comparing my site with my competitors. According to Open Site Explorer, my site has 541 internal follow links, and a total of 1,286 total internal links, implying I have 745 no follow internal links. I tried to drill into these internal no follow links using the "Inbound Links" report in OSE. But I'm receiving an error stating that No Data is Available for this URL. Does anyone have any insight to this? I'd really like to understand where those no follow links are coming from. Thanks in advance. eh70

Inbound Links Report Problem
While looking over my competitors inbound link report, they have a reported 5K inbound links. The first 20 listed inbound domains are things like UPS, and other sites that when I look at them, and the source file has no link to their domain at all??? So are they using some kind of Black Hat technique, or is SEOMoz not reporting properly? Help please.

How Long For New Keyword Rank Data?
I have a PRO account and added the initial keywords and got the immediate rankings for those. Then I added new keywords and those have not been updated. How long do I have to wait to get Keyword Ranking data on those keywords. I know it says they are updated every Friday, but does that mean I have to wait until next Friday for my first run of data on new keywords?? I ask because I have to present to a client before then and I require the data for that meeting. Any insight is appreciated.

0 values reported in anchor text distribution report
Can anyone explain the rows of 0 values for the majoity of anchor text reported in the Anchor Text Distribution section of OSE ? e.g I ran a report for a website which has around 2,500 inbound links and when I looked at the CSV file, there are about 1,500 anchor texts showing as 0. I'm sure there's either a simple explanation for this or its just a glitch. Can anyone help?
