Crazy competitive link analysis, 1 - 40 - 38
-
I'm seeing very strange results on my competitive link analysis. It used to give me a fairly constant domain authority of 38, now one hour i'm seeing 1, then 38 then back to 1 but if I look in opensite explorer it says I have 40. The same weirdness is having to every other stat in the section both in the overview and more detailed section.
The same thing is happening with one of the other competitors i'm comparing my link profile with.
What's going on?

Right on! Thanks Chiaryn! Thanks engineers!

Thanks. Much appreciated!

Hi Everyone,
Our engineers found the issue with the way that information was being pulled from the index and they were able to correct the problem. The campaign and the link analysis data is now matching what OSE is showing.
Please let us know if you're still having any issues.
Thanks,
Chiaryn

Hi There.
I'm really sorry your data is looking off. This sounds like there might be a bug in the way that the Competitive Link Analysis is pulling the data in from the index. I believe that the correct information should be what you're seeing in OSE.
Our engineers are currently looking into the issue, but I am going to create a support ticket for you so I can send them your specific information to look into. You will receive an email notification that the ticket has been created and you can respond with any further information there.
I highly encourage any other users that are experiencing this issue to write in with all of the campaign information to help@seomoz.org so we can further investigate the problem.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Chiaryn

It's happening on the SEOmoz website on my campaign over view page:
http://pro.seomoz.org/campaigns/156251
Broswers affected:
Firefox 13.0.1
Chrome 20.0.1132.47 m
and in
Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421 the competitive link analysis won't even appear I just see spinning set of arrows and a loading note.
I'm using win 7 and everything is updated to latest versions including Java 6.0.220.4
It started happening as soon as the most recent link data went live in July

Clearly seems like a bug with your SEOmoz bar (or whatever you are using) try to uninstall and restart it again!
-
I'm having exactly the same issue. Except the results in OSE are equally erratic.
And as I wrote elsewhere, it took 5 months for another of my clients to show up at all.
Remind me again, please, why I'm paying $99 a month?

This sounds like a bug!
Write down everything you can to reproduce the errors:
Brower version, operating system, steps to reproduce the error etc.
This will help SEOMoz to find and fix the bug!

Inbound Links/Spam Score - Disavow
Hi I have been using the Links tool in our Pro account on Moz, using the MOZ spam score/inbound links tool I can identify the linking domains and their spam rating. It shows we currently have around 4.8k linking domains and when I export the data I receive information like below. (Name - Spam Score)

6vh.info 93% These sites are linking to our images on the site and also to the product the image is from. 80% of our links are like these ones above I understand these types of links are quite common especially for e commerce sites but should I disavow these on a regular basis or ignore them? I don’t want to ignore them if they could harm us. Thanks Mike0 -
Is it possible to see if Internal Links are in the copy, nav or footer?
I've used Open Site Explorer to crawl my site for Internal Links. However I would like to see just internal links within the copy, not in the nav or footer. Is there a way of doing so that isn't manual? Or is there another tool that would do so?

Inbound links not showing in reports
My clients site so far only has a few inbound links. If I do a report on MOZ/Open Site Explorer it only lists 10 domains linking in and, a number of important ones are not on that list. As an example, one of the leading UK national newspapers (Daily Telegraph) has a link on this page to the client www.vidavida.co.uk and yet this link/domain does not appear in the above reports. Is this an intentional nofollow type thing that the telegraph does and is there a way for me to check that on their site/page? http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk/news-features/TMG8655068/Holiday-travel-in-style.html Any comments most appreciated. Thanks,

Where is the link prospecting tool?
I feel like last year when Moz was still SEOMoz I used a beta tool that would help you build a bunch of queries for link prospecting. You would tell it what your sites about and a few other pieces of information, and it would give you a list of google queries to get you started (ie inurl:directory <industryname> +"add site"</industryname>). However, I'm having a hard time finding this tool, or any reference to it on the web. It's also possible that it wasn't a moz tool but I'm misremembering where I found it. Does anybody have any idea what I'm talking about?

On Link Analysis tab I my best pages are 301 and 404 pages.
I looked on my redirrect file and found that /* redirects to /v/404.asp.
Moz Pro | | sbetzen
However if you look below at the link analysis the 404 page is getting a 404 error.
The homepage ecowindchimes.com/ is getting a 301 (but I don't know where it is going to).
The third one is also redirected. 1. [No Data] ecowindchimes.com/ ||| 301 ||| 2 ||| 36 2. 2. [No Data] ecowindchimes.com/v/404.asp ||| 404 ||| 2 ||| 34 3. [No Data] 3. ecowindchimes.com/index.html?lang=en-us&target=d2.html ||| 301 ||| 1 ||| 33 So I have 2 questions: 1) should this be fixed? and 2) how? This is a volusion site and I believe the "catchall" redirect was done by them0 -

How often does the competitive link checker get updated?
I just found a link in the competitive link checker that links to a couple of my competitors. The checker says that i do not have a link on that page, but there is one.. i recently (last week) obtained that link. So that raises the question: how many times is the competitive link checker updated? kind regards
