Why aren't links to my site showing up in open site explorer?
-
My site is http://www.thesquarefoot.com
Google analytics shows many more (though more than a handful of links that we have gotten recently still don't show up there).
Definite newbie here so please be kind...
Thanks!

I find that all the info on the Competitive Domain reporting in SEOmoz to ber completely inaccurate, i have over 300 links to my site showing in Webmaster Tools and other software but SEOmoz is only showing 12 linking root domains and this data has not updated now for several months.
How are you supposed to provide regular accurate reports to your clients when this data is so outdated? I pay my monthly fee for up-to-date accurate data and I dont appear to be getting this....not happy

It looks like the next OSE update is on June 6th so hang in there! Sometimes it takes 30-60 days. I'm patiently waiting for links to my brand new site to show as well.

Is there something going on with OSE? I've been noticing a lack of links being shown that I know would normally be, with linked to, and linked from sites indexed, and plenty of time passed for updates.

Open site explorer (OSE) is updated once a month so there is some lag in between updates. However, I found a good chunk of links to your site on yahoo site explorer. https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/search?p=www.thesquarefoot.com&fr=sfp
Yahoo site explorer is a good resource, you just dont get as much link data as you do with OSE.
hope this helps

Opensite explorer isn't updated instantly. It also isn't all encompassing (but it's getting there!). Give it time. I use google analytics to track where my traffic is coming from as it is the best way to see who is linking to you.

INBOUND LINKS FROM OTHER OWNED BRANDS HARMING MY MAIN SITE?
Hey, I work for a company that owns 5 brands, all pretty large sites with 10,000s of pages. We have one primary site, that has inbound links from all the other owned sites (4) resulting in 950k backlinks pointing to the domain. For context, the primary domain has 781 referring domains (with 4 of them being the other owned sites). My question was, will this excess of linking be harming the primary domain? Will the ration of backlinks to referring domains be seen as a negative quality indicator? Charlie

How long does it take for new links to show up?
Hi all, We just kicked off our first infographic to start a content marketing strategy: I'm wondering how long it will take for SEOMoz to add this to our link profile, and I suppose more importantly, how long it will take Google to recognize the links that have been generated from it. The response has been pretty good and I'm excited to see the results. Thanks!

Site not responding well to Link Building
I worked on around 15 EMDs and all of them have similar template but different content. They are all two KW EMDs. Now I did KW research and changed Title tags and Did around 10- 15 links for them in and they all reacted very well to link building except one site. I did the link building for this site in 3 batches- 7 links in first 10 days, then another 7 in next 10 days and another 7 links after 7 days. Site's ranking decreased with each link building. Then I removed the low quality links recently. Now What do you guys suggest should I again do link building?? (though everytime I did link building site lost rankings as mentioned earlier) or WHAT IS THE NEXT STRATEGY AFTER REMOVING BAD LINKS? START LINKING AGAIN, WAIT FOR SOMETIME ?

Outbound links and their pro's and con's
So I was wondering if there was a general consensis regarding the amount of outbound links you have coming from your domain to other domains and if there is a correlation between the more you have going out, the more (for want of a better word) damage you can do to your domain. EG: is a site with good domain authority better to keep the short leash on handing out links to external sites? Does this make the link juice from the site more valuable?

Linking to Adsense heavy sites?
Hi SEOmoz community! Hopefully a pretty straight forward question here... Does anyone know if linking to "Adsense heavy" websites can have a negative impact on your rankings? Or a positive impact even? Thes sites in particular are owned by a business aquintance, so they come from a trusted source even though the sites themselves look quite "spammy". Also they all have pagerank of 1 or 2 and there's about 100 of the sites that we would link to. Does anyone have any thoughts? Regards, Ash 🙂
