My best links not showing in Open Site Explorer
-
Why is it that OSE does not display my strongest backlinks, including those from Wikipedia, a legitamite .edu, Squidoo, etc.?
Some of those links have been live for a long time, and some (not all) are "dofollow".
Impossible to do a thorough backlink analysis in this situation.

A bit disappointing....I am seeing a deeper more comprehensive link profile using Small SEO Tools backlink checker

To be honest OSE has to be one of the slowest methods for finding new links.
If they were on par with some others they would surely get more revenue/subscriptions.
Seomoz, pick up your game, there are other link explorers that only need a few days to pick up new links, why do you need months and only update on certain days of the month?
Do us all a favour and make OSE our favourite tool!

Yes - they show up in Google Webmaster

I've seen different link builders suggest to build a link our two to your resources in order to get them found quicker by Google, and everyone else. These programs work by spidering the internet, and links are the fastest way to do that.

Hi William,
SEOmoz robots needs sometime to crawl the web pages. Wait for some time it will surely show those backlinks. And it will also show nofollow link.
Hope this link help you: http://www.seomoz.org/help/open-site-explorer-faq

Does a nofollow link from a high DA site count towards trust?
I've been checking out competitors through the 'link intersect function in my Moz account. Many have got nofollow links from high DA websites. I understand that nofollow links do not count count as a backlink, but will they add towards the trust factor?

Submitting pages to google to expidite them finding links to my site
Is it a good practice to submit a page linking to my site to expedite google finding the link or is it better to wait for the google spider to find it? Thanks, Ron!

Total Links vs Google Webmaster Site Links
I am interested why the numbers between SEOmoz and Google are so different. In SEOmoz we only show 17,000ish links from 190ish domains. In Google, we show 200,000+ links from 370 domains. Why is there such a dramatic difference?

Old Site not Passing Along Links?
Recently, we created a new website for a client, and put it on a new domain. We put a 301 redirect site-wide on the old site. The 301 is working correctly, and any visit to the old site is now going to the new one. So, from a functionality standpoint, we're looking good. However, looking at the domain authority of the sites, it doesn't seem that the old links are passing value to the new site. The old site had 43 linking root domains, and a domain authority of 30, compared to the new site with 16 linking root domains and an authority of 22. If I understand correctly, the links should be viewed as pointing to the new site and passing link juice to the new one, correct? Is there a reason why this may be happening that I should be looking into? Any thoughts or advice on this one would be appreciated. Thanks guys!

What are the best SEO agencies for link building?
I am not looking for a full service SEO agency. I just want link building. Not paid links, not link networks, not blog comments, not bookmarks...real, legit, decent links. Does anyone have any experience working with an SEO agency that helped them develop their link profile positively and at a reasonable price? I'm willing to pay for the service, I just want to work with someone who won't buy links or send a bunch of spam our way. If anyone has worked with such an agency, please let me know so I can contact them for more info. Thanks!
