Does SEOMOZ planing to restructure OSE metrics?
-
As you know SEO slowly turning into SEM and some metrics and numbers from Open Site Explorer are no so relevant any more.
As a customer of SEOMOZ product i am warning if you guys are planning to add more value and ranking metrics according to the new ranking metrics and factors to your tools?

Hi Jason - we do have some continual improvement plans for OSE and for our metrics. Obviously, the Just Discovered links feature was one of the most recent and valuable ones. We also do refactor and recalculate Page Authority/Domain Authority on a regular basis to make them better correlated with changes to Google.
On the longer-term horizon, we're planning a webspam metric, and we may be using more data from social and fresh web to improve PA/DA.

I don't work for SEOmoz but I can tell you that Open Site Explorer is one of the highest regarded tools in the SEO/SEM Community. The just discovered tab is in Beta and is still pretty awesome. I would say OSE is ahead of the curve and I thiunk most mozzers would agree.
I will tell you the relevance and value to every single metric in OSE.
If you are looking for more of a link opportunity tool i would suggest Ontolo or Buzzstream which I use both. Honestly my starting point for using either of those starts in OSE still.

Reliable Social Metrics Tool
Hi, Does anyone know of a reliable social metrics tool? So far I've tried Open Site Explorer, Tom Anthony's tools and SEO Quake With each one of them I get very, very different numbers. Cheers, Carlos

Recent SEOMoz Crawl = Strange Results
Did anyone else get some really strange results in their weekly crawls this week with the campaign tool? Either my ranks sky rocked across three different sites or the tools is busted. Something to the tune of having 4 pages ranking in the top 30 to now having 15-16 pages ranking in the top 30. I'd love to find out it is just all the hard work paying off but i am worried it is the later. Regards - Kyle

What period of time do OSE social media metrics represent?
When one hovers over the social media metrics in Open Site Explorer the popups say that the numbers represent the total number of times the URL has been posted, liked, tweeted or +1'd. Those numbers are [appear to be] more dynamic than the data in OSE's other reports and seem to get a fresh analysis each time the URL is entered. So I'm wondering what period of time is it counting in it's "total number of times" determination? If I'd like to track the data to get an idea of, say, total number of Facebook Shares for a one month period, how often should I check the numbers?

SEOmoz does not recognise < in title yet recommends it!!!!
The "<" is not recognised by SEOmoz campaign crawl bot. Bot only keeps the text before < and deletes everything else from the title! Fix needed.

Using the PA metric from the mozbar
Hey guys, just a quick question about page authority. Often I'll be on a page with a high domain authority but the page authority is 0 as it says there are 0 links from 0 domains to the page. This is despite the fact there is a followed link from the homepage to that page. Is this just a bug in PA, and can I assume that the page will have at least some authoirty as a link from the homepage is pointed to it? Or is there some other factor that may be preventing the page to not have any PA. Thanks
