Linking Domains - Missing
-
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if someone could help me. I keep reviewing my linking domains as I'm expecting a link back from an awards website that I recently sponsored / partnered. However its just not showing. I can see the link on their site and I can see that the other partners links are being tracked when I look at them in Open Site Explorer. I've got a couple of occurrences of this I'm and confused as to why?
Thanks for your help!

Thanks Tom,
That's fantastic! I really appreciate your help on that!

Good news! Both domains appear in MajesticSEO and Ahrefs. I've screen grabbed Majestic.
I imagine these will pop up in your OSE profile in the next update too. But they're there and passing strength. Good job!

Thank you that's very kind, i'd really appreciate that!
Our url is: www.agencyexpress.co.uk
The linking urls are: http://www.theestas.com/partners/ and http://www.redstones.co.uk/office-locations/brentwood/useful-information/trusted-suppliers
We don't have many but it's something I'm working on.
Thanks again Tom!

Hi Naomi, if you'd like me to quickly check whether or not the link is showing in Majestic/Ahrefs, let me know your URL and the link URL, as I have access to both tools. Either post here or send me a PM.

Hi,
Thank you that's very helpful! OSE not yet updated might be the case for one, however all the sponsors went on the site at the same time. I will check again after the next update. The other link is older. In that case they have linked us from an image. So maybe that's the problem.
I will check out the other tools for sure!
Thanks Again
Naomi

Hi there
If the page is being crawled by OSE (as shown by the link appearing in your competitors' link profile), it's probably a case of the link not being found yet by OSE for you.
OSE only updates once a month, with the next update due tomorrow in fact. You can see the update history and future update dates here. So, judging by that if your link was placed after June 20th, and possibly a couple of days before to account for processing time, that would be the reason why it has not shown up yet.
If you placed the link well before then, it might be more of an issue with the link itself or OSE showing an error. You can check to see if the link is showing up with a couple of other tools, such as MajesticSEO, Ahrefs (paid options) or OpenLinkProfiler (free).
Hope this helps.

Why is Open Site Explorer Showing me Spammy Links That I Already Removed?
Every two months or so, I like to download the OSE list of all the backlinks passing equity to my site. I do this so I can see which spammy links I need to try and remove. However, I see that OSE is still showing me links that I already removed...Either A) the page that is being linked to is 404-ed B) the spammy website that was linking doesn't exist anymore or C) the spammy site still exists, but the link is GONE. Why is OSE still spidering these sites and links? Does that mean Google is still spidering these links? Should I disavow them to be safe? Thank you! P.S We are not experiencing any drastic drops in traffic or penalties at the moment.

Domain Authority dropped by 9!
Hello Mozzers, I have logged onto MOZ this morning to see that my domain authority has slipped (seemingly overnight) from 61 to 52! The competitors i track have also slipped but not as dramatically as me and my domain. Is this an expected change in the algorithm? Have all industries been affected? Any help / explanation would be very much appreciated. Ben

Drastic Monthly Fluctuations in Page Link Metrics
We have experienced very drastic changes in our root domain numbers and as a result, have seen an odd impact on our DA. The data does not seem at all reliable at all. We went one month with over 50 recorded root domains and the next month that dropped over 75%. It doesn't make sense to be paying for a monthly pro account when the data is so clearly unreliable. What is going on? Looking for a good answer before closing our account!

Does Open Site Explorer recognise nofollow links?
In the backlink profile for my site on OSE, I'm seeing a lot of links that are paid advetorials and I know go through DoubleClick. I was informed that links going through Doubleclick automatically become NoFollow links. If the above is true, should I ignore these links? If they are NoFollow, they don't really contribute to my backlink profile? THANKS!
