How long does it take to get links indexed?

How long does it take Google Webmaster tools on average to detect links to my website? What about OSE? My site is fairly new (launched in January) and I've done some guest blogging -- I would think that some links from 3-4 weeks ago would be showing up by now. Am I just being impatient?

Hi, I made some posts in Blogspot 4 months ago. but still no link is showing in the Google Search Console. can anyone tell how long it take to show up in GSC? will google show that link? the posts I wrote on a metal bed frame.
thanks in advance. -
It depends on site. If it is well known then it might index it fast.
In Laser Marking Machine we are building links some of them are indexing and some of them are still not indexed. -
IT takes 8 to 10 weeks to index.

hello I have a website with page rank 4 I've noticed when update pages it update right away but when I update with a new post it goes live couple of hours if you aearch for it on Google with the key words you used so that means if you use your site to post useful information or news google is going to pick it up quick I also use Google Plus remember that is 100% google no middle man i have also noticed when i use g+ I get more hits so meaning I'll stick with google+ to post different information than facebook.
this is article I published that you can check out.

It depends on a variety of factors. You will notice that some people say that it takes hrs while others might say months. I recently highlighted these in my own blog post, but if you want something crawled and indexed faster you need the trust of that website to be increased. So feel free to share it on social media sites, build links to that page, or connect Google+ to it.

Andrew, let's site abc.com is the site linking to your from their homepage. If you really want to check, just see cache:abc.com in Google and see if the page in Google's cache contains your link. Google may or may not show all of your backlinks.
Considering your site is new, and the fact that you are doing Guest Posts (which in my opinion are the Directory Submissions of 2011-2012-2013 years), I would look at diversifying your link building tactics to be more natural. Really natural. Specially if you want this site to rank for a long period.
I hope this helps.

Hi Andrew, it takes only a few hours!... (also websites that post news will not wait 3 months ;)) But I think it depends on your trust and page rank which helps to get new links indexed faster. I have my own domain more than 10 years, got very few but good backlinks and never found time to optimize my own site but at least it has a PR4. I lately tested how blogging helpes to rank for keywords and made very good experiences. At night I posted a short article, submitted it with WMT ...fetch as google... And the next morning the new page ranked already very well !! So upload your page and submit it to google. And check next morning... It worked for my WP Blog. Thats my experience Best regards, Holger

How long does it take to get links indexed?
It depends upon on how often Google crawls the website and web pages concerned and whether or not they determine the content worthwhile adding to their index. You can perform a search in Google to see if the web pages containing your links have been indexed and check the last cache date.
**How long does it take Google Webmaster tools on average to detect links to my website? **
About 6 weeks on average, however Google does not include all your links in WMT
What about OSE?
The way Mozscape crawls and indexes the web means that deep pages are often not added to their OSE reports. If the links were only placed in the last 3-4 weeks it's unlikely Moz will havew found them all yet so I would hold on a couple more weeks.

I believe Matt Cutts once said that the backlinks in GWT are updated every 3 months or so. I'm not sure if the frequency has been changed since then. I don't know how often OSE updates.
It's best to keep track of your own backlinks. As long as the page that the link is on has been indexed by Google, then it is likely already being taken into account from the algorithm's perspective.

Why MOZ just index some of the links?
hello everyone i've been using moz pro for a while and found a lot of backlink oppertunites as checking my competitor's backlink profile.
Link Building | | seogod123234
i'm doing the same way as my competitors but moz does not see and index lots of them, maybe just index 10% of them. though my backlinks are commenly from sites with +80 and +90 DA like Github, Pinterest, Tripadvisor and .... and the strange point is that 10% are almost from EDU sites with high DA. i go to EDU sites and place a comment and in lots of case, MOZ index them in just 2-3 days!! with maybe just 10 links like this, my DA is incresead from 15 to 19 in less than one month! so, how does this "SEO TOOL" work?? is there anyway to force it to crawl a page?0 -
When conducting a link building strategy does it matter the country the link is from?
We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us. The links are from relevant websites and topics. Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

Back link from site with DA of 72 to a website domain. Clicking on the link redirects to our website not the attended one.
Hi,
Link Building | | JIMBO16
I've ran a back link check and discovered a good back link to a site which then gets redirected back to my company's website. I have a feeling that an old SEO agency has purchased a small website which has a decent link back from a relevant organisation with a high Domain authority and then redirects the domain to our website to get the link juice. What are your thought on this? Is this really bad practise and possibly damaging? Thanks, Jim0 -
Naked link anchors or long tail anchors ?
Hi, Do naked link anchors such as "www.mysite.com/my-category" have the same SEO power as long tails anchors? What about the UX which such anchors? Lately a site published our back-to-school article with this horrible naked link anchor, it does not look friendly to me as a reader, but I am wondering whether I should bother, how important it is for google and for readers? Thank you in advance. Isabelle

How to get rid of ezinearticles links etc?
I know the standard answer of email all the sites but, I dont like my chances of even getting any delisted..
Link Building | | Adamzzz
Have around 260 links with about 60% of them junk.
Some links are from sig links on forums that I actually legitimately post to and from real comments I have made on the web over the years. Should all of these go? Was thinking of hiring a freelancer to do this or maybe going through an online tool if anyone has any suggestions? An example is this http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Era-of-Digital-Signage&id=6236852 Edit: Well I got a reply from ezine and from goarticles! They are removing the articles, maybe its becoming a headache for them all as, Sorry, GoArticles.com is no longer accepting new article submissions or account signups. We wish this wasn't the end, but unfortunately, it is and we aren't able to continue. You can download a backup copy of all of your submissions by logging into your existing account so that you can re-use your content on your own website or other competitor sites. Thank you for being a member and we're sorry that this site will be coming to an end shortly.1 -
Reciprocal links
Are they worth anything, if they are from relevant sites? I'm I better off avoiding linking back wherever possible?

What benefit does a site with a low DA get from someone guest posting who links to a site with a high DA?
I'm relatively new to link building and although this may be an obvious question I can't seem to find an answer anywhere even after searching Google.

Text Link vs image link?
Which passes most link juice a text link or an image with the correct 'alt' attribute? Do the pass the same amount or is one more valuable than the other?
