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!

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!

Moz can't see my link from an external site
Hi, I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this. I've had a followed link created from http://www.dubaisharks.com/ pointing to my website - http://www.yallarugby.com but in the reports it doesn't show that there is a link coming fro this website. The link has been active for a few months now, but still no record of it. Any ideas?

Links being reported in Webmaster Tools
Hi Are the Total Links To Your Site, as reported in GWT, purely external inbound links ? Since these links are usually, as far as i can tell, much higher in number than any other link reporting tool and hence, i presume, more accurate, why don't services such as Moz etc include this in reporting ? I know its just a total number and link quality is whats important not quantity, but i would have thought interesting to show in reporting in conjunction with link quality info such as is already reported. Since most backlink reporting tools do show a total but always much much lower than that reported in gwt (i think) All Best Dan

How to legally run an onsite competition from Facebook?
Hi Guys, I am thinking about running a competition on my website in order to drive traffic to it, however the regulations that govern competitions around FB are convoluted to say the least. I am under the impression that I can advertise the competition on FB by direct them to an external site. Does anyone have any experience with this and can guide me, so I dont burn a well established Social Profile with over 2,200 connections? Thank you for any help you can give me. Kind Regards, Craig

Too many links on a page - pull-down menus
SEOMoz is showing too many links on the page (www.ankinlaw.com). There clearly aren't 100 visible links on the page. Is it counting each page found on the (extensive) pull-down menu as a link? If not, where do all the links come from?

Open Site Explorer Question- Link Value?
One of my backlinks is from a site that has a page authority of 74. However, the domain is a domain I purchased and 302'd to my current main domain. What I'm wondering (without getting into why a 301 is better than a 302) is this: does OSE have any tool that shows if there is actually value in a link? My assumption is that despite this domain having a PA of 74, the 302 is not passing over any value. To be clear, I understand that a 302 doesn't pass over any SEO value, but my question is whether or not OSE shows the value of a link? Thanks!
