Open Site Explorer detects links from a site that redirects to it? How is this possible?
-
I was checking external links to a site: scte-brasilien.de/ and was wondering why there are so many links pointing from another domain (reisen-nach-brasilien.com/) although it redirects to scte-brasilien.de/?
So when checking the redirecting domain OSE knows its redirecting...
The URL you've entered redirects to another URL. We're showing results for scte-brasilien.de/ since it is likely to have more accurate link metrics. See data forreisen-nach-brasilien.com/ instead?
How is this possible?
best regards

Hi Holger,
It seems to me that you have a permanent 301 redirect error on your server. Or somebody has hijacked your DNS. You may want to check both things very soon.
Check your robots.txt file
Check your DNS settings make sure you're a record is not pointing to http://scte-brasilien.de/
Is either your DNS or your server I would call your hosting company and have it checked out.
Sincerely,
Thomas

Ryan,
in my advanced report I receive these links: please see screenshot below & report here
And please help me with these issues too:
-
In the Column "Page Authority" there is sometimes is no value and in my case "Expeditions"... (may be this is an error because I must replace always " , " with " ** ; **" because I have a german Excel version and changing it via the system option does not work. So may be that here occur these errors.)
-
the column "Origin" sometimes give me the values like: 193,57,36 or 30 and at the Target URL "External" instead of the URL.
-
also the column "Link Equity" contains sometimes an URL and "301" = Yes
is this all caused by Excel? If yes, is there an alternative software that reads csv-files correctly?
Thank you!!

Hey Holger,
Thanks for the question! I took a look at the report for scte-brasilien.de and reisen-nach-brasilien.com, and the only links to scte from reisen are the 301 redirects. You can look at the screenshot here: http://www.screencast.com/t/7K6jmevRuw

The server gives OSE a code like 200 (all ok) or 301permanent redrect

In Open Site Explorer is it possible to use wildcards?
If I have a section on my website called lists with articles in there can I use wildcards in Open Site Explorer to find how many backlinks all articles in that section have - and ideally which pages are most linked to? Something like www.example.com/lists/* to give number of backlinks to all articles in that website section and which are the most highly linked to. Would be a great feature to have! Cheers Siimon

Big changes in site titles
So as I pour though some of the diagnostics data for over 100,000 pages of my site I see thousands of page title that "could" be changed. Could this cause some lost traffic for a while due to the big changes?

Open Site Explorer - SEO - Company Back Links not visible?
Hi Guys, I am relatively new to the SEO community and have what is hopefully a pretty quick and simple question? I have recently outsourced some of my SEO campaigns to an Australian SEO group which were referred to me buy a friend, and i do not have the time to manage all sites SEO. On pitch the SEO company said they had in excess of 7000 domains, and they would implement a massive back linking strategy for me anywhere upwards of 200 links a month and all legit. Initially there were some basic header and title tag changes needed on the site, and I am now in month 4 of my campaign. Looking forward to using SEOMOZ service and specifically Open Site Explorer, I entered my URL but to my disappointment I could only see 4 links and two I was responsible for. I spoke to the SEO company who responded Open Site Explorer wasn't a good indication of back links and that a lot of their sites were not on the network because of the structure of their linking being only one way. I would appreciate a second opinion (external of this company) on this because of my short time learning and dabbling with SEO. On a side note thoroughly enjoying learning SEO and my journey as part of the SEOMOZ community. Appreciate any feedback or responses I get. Kind regards Bodie http://www.berkeleyriver.com.au

Why are inbound links not showing up?
I'm new to SEOmoz but have a question regarding inbound links that I don't see posted in the forum. In order to become more familiar with SEOmoz tools, I've been checking out sites that friends and family members have created as practice. Things have been going really smooth until I came across a 2+ year old page that should have included an inbound link from wsj.com but said link is not appearing in OSE for this page. Background: A friend of mine has a (basically) defunct blog that had a pretty well trafficked posting in 2009. However, when I use OSE to check out both the domain and page inbound links, I don't see the aforementioned inbound link from wsj.com. Why is that? Or, it's insanely late - am I missing something? Friend's blog posting: http://bcclist.com/2009/04/21/craigslist-killer-megan-philipcom-removed/ WSJ posting with a link to my friend's blog (4th paragraph...anchor text = "taken down"): http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2009/04/21/who-is-megan-mcallister/ No rush. Again, I'm doing this as practice and being new to the site, I figure I'm overlooking something. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Which would you chose? Link on PA56 with 88 OBL's and 80 IBL's or a link on a PA75 with 225 OBL's & 40 IBL (Same Domain)
Which would you chose? Link on PA56 with 88 OBL's and 80 IBL's or a link on a PA75 with 225 OBL's & 40 IBL (Same Domain) Pretty self explanatory. I want to know what metrics SEOMozzers rely on most. If you are not an expert at evaluating links for large scale development please don't muddy the waters on this question with a thin and vague answer.
