Internal and external links showing in Webmaster Tools but not in MOZ
-
Hi there
I set up a campaign 2 weeks ago but I am registering zero internal or external links for my website. It's a small site with only about 300 external links but they show in Webmaster tools but not in my link report or Open Site Explorer.
Do I need to wait until the next OSE crawl or is something wrong with my set up?
Thanks in advance!
Laurie

Thanks all for your responses.

I will agree with Fede, the problem with OSE is it only crawls the portion of the website so if your links are not appearing in OSE they probably will (with the time). There is no harm in trusting the data from Google Webmaster Tool!
-
Thomas, I guess she's talking about inbound links reported by OSE, not the URL Crawl diagnostics by Moz...
-
If you signed up two weeks ago when you have zero URLs showing up I would check your settings and make sure that your campaign set up correctly. And you should see something at least 100 to 300 URLs crawled

Open Site Explorer only indexes a portion of the Web. If your links are showing up in Webmaster tools that's ok and there's nothing to worry about. Eventually, OSE will start showing your Links.

Unsolved Why is Moz reporting 308s as 302s?
Got a looooong list of redirect issues in my crawl for a new client, all reported as 302s but as far as I can see they are all 308s... which is perfectly fine, right, or have I missed a memo? They even confirm the 308 status in the moz detail.

Why did my DA and Links go down?
How could I begin to research this to find out why we have less total links and a lower domain authority. Our DA has gone down two points and our total links dropped by a few thousand. I'd like to find out why that happened but I'm just not sure where to start. Thanks!

How to handle subdirectories in Moz and Webmaster Tools?
I have 3 websites: http://www.abc.com (English pages) http://www.abc.com/fr (French) http://www.abc.com/de (German) Webmaster Tools In Google Analytics: I created an Account called ABC and created 4 properties with relative filters ABC Default (No filter) ABC English (filter to exclude /fr, /de) ABC French (filter to include /fr) ABC German (filter to include /de) In webmaster tools, I wish to add 3 sites http://www.abc.com http://www.abc.com/fr http://www.abc.com/de How do I validate each url with Google analytics, considering I just want the specific language for folder. How do I validate the domain name http://www.abc.com to always ensure the inclusion of the default english data? MOZ Do I need to create 3 campaigns (one per language) and if yes, again how do I handle http://www.abc.com which should exclude /fr and /de? Thank you

Tracking External Followed Inbound Links - Are We Getting Fooled?
This question is not about how to use SEOMOZ Link tools. It's about the numbers themselves and how their fluctuations are causing confidence issues.... My client wants to track inbound followed links over time. But as I understand it, this number will vary depending on the Linkscape crawling success (or even outages or partial crawls.) In the past few reports, we've had wild fluctuations which have made them very nervous. If my client wants to track inbound followed links over time, what SEOMOZ metric should we use for the most reliable progress checks?
