New links not showing in site explorer ?
-
I have built links to my site this past month that I know are live and in place and some do follow and some no follow ...
Are the no follow links just not going to show up in my site explorer data ?
And the others - why would they not be showing up yet ?
SeoMoz updated thier link data aug 1st , my site has been crawled since then ,
but this new work I have done for link building have not shown up - None of them ?
Its like I did not do any work ?
how long could it take for them to show up and affect my site trust ect ?
Also is there anything I vould be doing to speed the process up of having the new links found ?

Google makes no promises that it will show you all of the links that it knows about, and also makes no promises that the links that it shows count for anything. They have publicly admitted they do not count links from UpDowner, for example, to the relief of many webmasters.
At the beginning of your response, you state your website rankings have improved. That is one report you can show the client. Other things to look at for your client are their traffic and how that has changed -- have those links given the client any referral traffic? has the client's organic traffic increased on keywords you've been targeting? has your client made more conversions? Page and Domain authority are nice, but they don't pay the client's mortgage. Find things that help show to the client what you have done is my suggestion.

O.K.
I logged into google webmaster and found 32 linking domains in there.
I am a new user to Seomoz and am just trying to get things clear.
My website rankings have improved,
I am doing some tedious link building and am trying to figure out how much work (links) i am doing is helping my sites actual rankings.
I need to know what to tell my seo clients and need to show results on these reports
my report on here shows 9 linking domains
Google webmaster shows 32 linking domains
and I know I have built links that are live that are not even showing up in Google webmaster account.
I need to understand the time frame so I can explain to my clients when i can show results of my workks effect on website score/links/domain trust ect.
If Why are some links not showing in Google ?
Do they just not show you all of them ?
Why are at least the ones in My webmaster account not showing on my Seomoz reports
Also i read somewhere that when you build a new link you should ping it so it shows up faster ? Have you heard this ? Does it help ?
I have to do a report for a client that does not show any improvement at all knowing i have bulit at least 70 new links back to thier site ... Im a little frustrated and don't want to lose the client.
I was hoping to be able to send a professional looking report not just aa excell file of link addresses.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance !

Hi! The last data update is showing link information from crawls in Mid-May to Mid-July, with more details available at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/august-mozscape-update. Have you looked in Google Webmaster Tools and Bing Webmaster Center for your incoming links and see if they've shown up there yet? Google and Bing both have bigger server farms than we do, and can show you the information a bit faster.

I need help on how best to do a complicated site migration. Replacing certain pages with all new content and tools, and keeping the same URL's. The rest just need to disappear safely. Somehow.
I'm completely rebranding a website but keeping the same domain. All content will be replaced and it will use a different theme and mostly new plugins. I've been building the new site as a different site in Dev mode on WPEngine. This means it currently has a made-up domain that needs to replace the current site. I know I need to somehow redirect the content from the old version of the site. But I'm never going to use that content again. (I could transfer it to be a Dev site for the current domain and automatically replace it with the click of a button - just as another option.) What's the best way to replace blahblah.com with a completely new blahblah.com if I'm not using any of the old content? There are only about 4 URL'st, such as blahblah.com/contact hat will remain the same - with all content replaced. There are about 100 URL's that will no longer be in use or have any part of them ever used again. Can this be done safely?

My Site name changed. Why does sometimes new name, sometimes old name show in Google.
My website name has changed in the title, but only shows up sometimes in the SERPs. What can I do to ensure the new name is the name that always shows up? It's been a month since the change and we have submitted a new sitemap. Here's one example: http://www.building.govt.nz/blc-building-act. In Google (for New Zealand building code) it shows up as Building Act - Department of Building and Housing. Any ideas?

Moving career site to new URL from main site. Will it hurt SEO for main page?
For one of our clients we are building a career site and putting it under a different URL and hosting service (mainly due to security concerns of hosting it under the same host and domain). almost 100% of the incoming traffic to their current career section (which it is in a sub-folder) receives traffic for branded keywords (brand + job/career/employment), that is, there are no job position specific keywords. The client is now worried that after moving the site, the inbound traffic to the main site will be severely affected as well as the SERP results. My questions are, will the non-career related SERPs be affected? I don't see how will they be but I could be wrong If no, how could we reassure her that the SEO to the main site wont be affected? are there any case studies of a similar case (splitting part of the website under a new URL and hosting service?) Thank you for your help. PS: this is my first post so please forgive me if this has been asked before. I could not find a good response.

2 sites or one sites: 2 locations
Hello, I have a dog training client who is offering services in 2 separate locations. We're looking to be first in the non-local search results and also rank well in google places. Would it be better to go for 2 separate sites or one site and try to rank for 2 different locations with one site? There's both local and standard search results when we type in our keywords. Thanks!

Multiple sites - ownership & link structure
Hi All I am in the process of creating a number of sites within the garden products sector; each site will have unique, original content and there will be no cross over. So for example I will have one on lawn mowers, one on greenhouses, another on garden furniture etc. My original thinking was to create a single limited company that would own each of the domains, therefore all the registrant details will be identical. Is this a sensible thing to do? (I want to be totally white hat) And what, if any, are the linking opportunities between each of the sites? (16 in total). Not to increase ranking, more from an authoritative perspective. And finally, how should I link between each site? Should I no follow the links? Should I use keyword contextual links? Any advice ideas would be appreciated 🙂 Please note: It has been suggested that I just create one BIG site. I've decided against this as I want to use the keyword for each website in the domain name as I believe this still has value. Thanks

Anybody have any technical on-site recommendations for a job site I am working on especially regarding my internal pages? (Cross Country Allied.com)
