Find all the back links to all the posts/pages within the blog subdirectory only.
-
Hi, I am new to Moz. I using the open site explorer to find backlinks for a website's blog. The website itself is huge. I want to find all the backlinks to all the posts/pages within the blog subdirectory only. Not the regular website. I ran a few reports, but it is giving me links to that page, not all the sub pages.Fi

Hi Darren
In order to view backlinks to a specific sub-folder or directory you will need to use the advanced report feature to filter the results. Here is a screenshot of the settings: http://www.screencast.com/t/qeit2kc2
You also want to makes sure to end your URL with a trailing slash, however you will only find links to pages in that immediate sub-folder.
So if your URL is domain.com/blog/
The your results will show links that are finding pages within /blog/ and not /blog/other/
If you need to go deeper then you would run the same report with /blog/other/ as the search URL.
Let me know if this helps!

Hi Chris, thanks for your reply. When I use open site explorer it shows only links to the URL or links to the entire domain. How can I see links only within a certain directory?

Go to opensiteexplorer to explore your page or website linkprofile.Its quite simple to use.Add the the directory URL in search bar and press enter.
Export report and sort data like you need.

Outbound 404 Links
My blog goes back to 2005 and occasionally I find outbound links on old posts that now generate a 404 error. Is there a Moz tool that can find and report on such errors? If not, are there other tools you can recommend?

Moz Crawl only crawling the top level page (1 page)
For the past few mounts my weekly site crawl has been inconsistent. One week works fine, it crawls all of my 500 or so pages. The following week it only crawls 1 page (http://mydomain.com) and nothing else. A few weekly scan go by and the crawl is back up the the 500 or so pages.I went ahead and created several campaigns with duplicate settings and crawled the site. Most times but not all the new campaign's crawl works fine crawling all pages. But within a week or two the weekly crawl will fail again. (crawling 1 page). Currently i have four campaign's all with the same settings running weekly crawls. 2 campaign's crawled the 500 pages and two crawled only the single page. Any help will be greatly appreciated

I keep getting a 429 Too Many Request error for a wp-login page on my website. Is there a way to prevent that from happening, or fix outside of redirecting on the back end of WordPress?
I have a client that keeps coming up with 429 Too Many Request critical crawl errors. I re-directed some of them on the back end of WordPress, but additional keep coming in. The URL has a WP-Login and directs to back end login section. Is there a reason that would come up as an error, how can I prevent it from happening again, and how can I fix the remaining current errors outside of redirecting back to /? Thanks, Kalyn Lengieza

Is it normal for my homepage's page authority to be higher than my domain authority?
Hi everyone, I've just been checking my MOZ authority scores, and the page authority of my home page, www.concerthotels.com is 53 (mozRank of 6.16) which seems pretty good to me. However, the domain authority is only showing as 45. Is this typical? There is such a big difference between these two scores - what does that suggest? Is there anything obvious that I can do to bring the domain authority up to the level of authority that the homepage commands? Similarly, the UK version of my site has a homepage authority of 41, but the domain authority is only 30. Looking at numerous other websites, quite often the homepage and domain authority scores are very similar, or the domain authority is slightly higher, so it does look as if this is unusual. Any comments would be greatly appreciated, Many thanks Mike

How can I find the old ERRORS and WARNINGS report in the NEW Moz design?
I'm looking for a complete list of errors and bugs that need to be fixed within a website. I used to use the MAIN tool (at least it seemed it was the most popular) but now that its just MOZ.com I can't seem to find that great report. It had data such as: 1. List of pages with Title Tags too long 2. List of pages with Description Tags too long 3. List of RED errors and YELLOW warnings, BLUE somethings... etc... Ring a bell? I LOVED this report, where can I find this data? Thanks! Derek
