Why does the link analysis of my website say I have no links?
-
When I click on the "Link Analysis" tab it says my website has a domain authority of 1 and has 0's for every other category.
When I run it in Open Site Explorer - it says I have a page authority of 51 with over 4600 links.
My website also seems to be at a stand still over the past several weeks. Anyone know why the two Link Analysis is not showing anything?
Thank you

Thank you.
Although I am using Volusion for some clients, I hate them. Too limited and I will go out of my way to get customers away from them. I do have a client using Volusion, he is paying ~$500 a month for unlimited bandwidth...$500!?!?!! I mean cmon!

That is extremely funny that you mention that.
We are currently undergoing a complete re-design of our website and are switching to Magento ASAP (hopefully in the next 2-3 months). We have over 40,000 skus so it will be a task but we have had major issues with Volusion that it will be well worth any ranking dips we get after the switch
Good luck to you and thanks for all of your help!

No problem. Also I just visited your site, your right sidebar is showing up in the middle of the page when you scroll down.
Also, you should not use Volusion, they are horrible. For a small volume or local business, I guess its not that bad but if you are planning on expanding, I say leave them now while you still can.
I'd suggest Magento, hosting is cheaper. Volusion rips people off with the bandwidth limitations. I get charged 100-200 extra a month for bandwidth limitation, I am trying to move to Magento but currently don't have enough time to input 2000 products with customized descriptions and titles.

Thanks William - I entered the domain without the www. for some reason.
I appreciate your help!

What "Link Analysis" are you talking about? I'm looking around and can't see what you are referring to.
You might or should contact SEOmoz if this is part of the tool set.
What I think you are referring to is on the 'Campaign' tab and then bottom where it says competitive link analysis. If this is the case, you might have entered the wrong domain.
i.e.
These both domains could be the same root domain but will have a different page authority and domain authority. You might have the non-homepage set up in your Campaign settings, and on OSE, you are searching your exact domain probably.
This is a guess, assuming I know what you are referring to.

Selling on eBay and Amazon, does it have a negative impact our your website?
_We sell on multiple platforms I.e own website, eBay, Amazon and have noticed over the last few years to hold a page 1 ranking on Google is becoming more and more difficult as the SERPs are saturated with the big brands. _ My question is, we've loaded all of our products and there lovely unique descriptions to eBay and Amazon, is there any chance that this content is helping eBay and Amazon rank (may be not by much!), but certainly not doing us any favours. As effectively why would you show our site in the search results for a product range, when all of the content/products already appear on eBay/Amazon which is several SERPs places higher? Is Google not inclined to think, "hey no need to show x site, as the content is already features on Amazon, why show it twice?" Any one have any thoughts?

Abnormally high number of root domains linking to root domains
My client runs a very small business hiring out space in a single warehouse and rarely adds content to his incredibly badly optimised wordpress site. Can anyone make any wild guesses as to why my client has 2.9 million root domains linking to root domains? He also has a domain authority of 100. Strange when the number one competitor in warehouse space in this part of the world is Gumtree (equivalent of Craig's List) and that only has 9.25k root domains linking to root domains and site authority of 80. Is there any way of finding out where these links are coming from via Moz? Thanks

How Do You Currently Analyze Outbound Link Profiles?
So I'm looking at some potential guest blogging &/or article writing opportunities and I'm looking for a tool which will analyze the OUTBOUND links from the site....it would be handy if inbound were displayed too but not essential as there are many tools available for this. When I ask for sample sites it is clear that a number of them (all?!) have been created purely for us content purposes, however it would be good to analyze the site further. A tool that could analyze its outbound links would give me a rough idea if the site is suitable or simply a glorified link-farm. Also, if you have any useful links regarding industry averages on outbound links for blogs & article sites (eg Ezine) for benchmarking it would be good! Thanks

Manta inbound link in OSE - competitor site yes, my site no, why?
Our site has had a link back to our site from Manta for a long time, but it's not appearing in our OSE results. One of our competitors similarly has an inbound link from Manta and that link DOES appear in their OSE results. I'm not certain whether that matters for us. Does it? But in any event, why would the one link appear but not the other? Thanks! Tim

Why does website rank? PA-39 DA-24
This website is pretty nice, well done. The few links they do have are nice and clean, from his brothers website, very much white hat. However, it appears that they aren't doing much of anything from an SEO standpoint. This site, is PA31 DA21 is also doing unusually well. In both cases, these guy are outranking the best know, most famous, and most trusted company in the industry who is PA84 DA81. This is a HUGE company that wins the most awards and gets tons of media coverage both in print and on televisiton shows. I'm also noticing that the websites that are ranking well in my niche (every keyword) all have the name of their company at the beginning of the title tag, those with the name of the company at the end of the title tag are consistantly a few ranks lower. This seems to be consistant across all search terms. My niche is highly competitive for a very low amount of traffic. Adwords is crazy expensive for some of these keywords! That said, one valid sale generates a significant amount of money. Would love to hear your thoughts. I'm thinking the first company is being treated so well becase G considers them to be virgins, the purist of white?
