Open site explorer
-
Hi,
I am a little confused how open site explorer updates (not sure its working as aspected). It shows the recent discovered links but these then disappear and do not show in the main list (Inbound links) after a few days.
Plus the links in the inbound links tab has not changed for nearly 10 weeks, my other tools are showing the new links.....
Does it update on a certain data, if so where can i check the status?
Thanks

Hey 720,
Links in Just Discovered Links are completely separate from Links in Mozscape/OSE.
JDL "indexes URLs within about one hour of being shared on Twitter—as well as the URLs linked from those tweeted pages." As I understand it, JDL URLs are displayed in the report without regard to their value or the value (DA,PA) of the pages the links reside on. On the other hand, URLs in OSE are not indiscriminate. The links in OSE are the result of crawls that attempt to reach only URLs of a predefined depth/quality.
I'm not sure if this is the case for your situation but (again, as I understand it), if the links that show up in JDL are found on low quality pages, it is possible that they will never show up in OSE.
30 days is the length of time a just discovered link remains visible on JDL.

URL column of Link Explorer reports do not have the protocol (http or https)
I exported from Link Explorer. In the URL column, there is no protocol for each URL. Isn't the protocol part of what makes a url? I'm crawling each with http:// and https:// but it feels like this info could just be in the report. Am I missing a step?

Open Site Explorer Question
Hello Mozers. It has been a while 🙂 OK - I run an open site explorer report, toggle over to 'Linking Domains' because I am more interested in the number of actual websites that link to my client rather than the number of links my client has (and of course what websites are linking) and although I have been doing this for years there is one little thing I am a bit confused about. The report shows (from left to right) the 'Linking Root Domain", the "Domain Authority" for the linking domain and then the 'Number of Linking Root Domains" for each 'Linking Root Domain" My question is (rather stupid, I am sure) is the number of linking root domains for each linking root domain the number of websites linking to them OR the number of websites to which they link?
