Why Even Publish Dates for the Next OSE Data Set?
-
I just noticed on the Linkscape calendar the update that was supposed to happen yesterday is pushed back to the 6th.
It would be better not knowing. Is this a possibility? Or use the calendar internally, I don't care. Credibility in any announcement or claim looses muster once you do not do what you say you are going to do over and over again. Just a thought..

No worries, Brent. I don't think it's an attack at all. Feel free to not view the calendar.

lol, probably freshdesk after what they said about them on Twitter

Actually, a DDOS attack took Zendesk down today, it wasn't us.

Did you guys actually take it down now? Or is it just broken?

Thanks Jen.
I'm just not sold. The only reason I have a subscription anymore is to refresh out of amusement. It's sad really.
So now I will put much less weight in the dates on the calendar. Would a 5-10 day window surrounding the "next update" date be wise?
Sorry if this seems like an attack, I realize the service has many hands in on the project and you are trying to speak on behalf of many. Trying my best not to shoot the messenger here

Hi Brent!

Hey Brent,
I totally understand where you're coming from and believe me we're as frustrated by the date slipping as our customers are. We set a date to help people plan and we like to be open and transparent about the index and when it's coming out. It may seem like a good idea to not tell people when we've missed a date, but honestly that wouldn't be very TAGFEE of us.
Also, having a date on the calendar help people remember when indexes have gone out in the past. It's most definitely not perfect, but we're working very hard to get those indexes happening much faster than they currently are. We'd rather have people know what's going on, rather than wonder.
Hope that helps explain a bit!
Thanks,
Jen

So we have a rough idea when to expect the next Linkscape Update. This isn't an exact date, but more of an estimate or goal.

Why does the csv export from OSE only include 25 of the 90+ links?
In OpenSiteExplorer, I clicked "Download CSV" for a report on backlinks from one domain to another. The online visualization in OSE showed 93 external inbound links from site A to site B. When I opened the report, there are only 25 linking pages listed. How do I download the full list?

In OSE is there a way to see the total number or links coming from each domain?
Open site explorer will only show up to to 25 links per domain but in order to fully understand the link profile for the site I'm working on, I need to know how many links are coming from each domain - when I download the linking domains report, it doesn't contain this information. Is there a way to access it?
