How do I find what backlinks have disappeared?
-
I have seen a decrease in backlinks, how do I figure out which ones are no longer there?
-
it's 5 years using their historical data
-
I have been in contact with A href and they only go back 2 months do you know how far back Majestic goes?
-
it gives you all your lost backlinks as well (like ahrefs)
Link research tools can easily do this too.

Hi Niners52,
Rather than rely on an external tool to have found all of the URLs in a crawl and report them accurately, I would run a direct crawl using Screaming Frog.
There is a post on their blog which provides step by step instructions on how to use the tool to crawl a specific list of URLs.
You can only do this with the licensed version of Screaming Frog, but if you are not already using it, the cost is only 99 British pounds per year, and it is crazy useful for a thousand other things. A little more value for money than just subscribing to a more specific tool for just one month.
This way you will actually have a crawl result, not just a read from another tool.
Hope that helps,
Sha

I am looking at paying for an account for a month but it seems it only shows the last two months of what has been lost, I really need to go back about 6 months. is that possible?
-
You can create a free account. It's better than nothing
-
Is there a way to do it without a subscription?
-
http://ahrefs.com will show you the links you have lost.
-
ahrefs.com can show it to you

Backlink Transparency with SEO Agency
Hello everyone. I recently started working with an SEO agency and today they gave me an updated keyword report which showed some increase in rankings. I was not aware that any backlinks had been created yet so I asked for a report of the links. Their response is below and I am just wondering if this is normal practice being I have not worked with any type of SEO agency yet. "

But rest assured you will be ranking at the top of the pack with our methods 😃

Backlink reports in OSE, the good and the bad!
Hi all Mozers, I have a couple of questions re the backlink reports in Open Site Explorer. In the introductory video Rand suggests that you can indentify backlinks that are a) Having a positive effect, and b) Having a negative effect on SEO campaigns. Do you identify such links using the domain/page authority of the linking page? Also, we know we have more links than OSE is reporting, does this mean that the links that are not reported are not helping our SEO campaign? Many thanks in advance, much appreciated. Lee
