Hi;

In your report settings, did you include:
- All links
- All pages
- Pages on the root domain
- Show links ungrouped
As far as I know, this is the only way to get a full snapshot of the links indexed by OSE. If you site has multiple subdomains, you could then do a second pull of All links/All pages/Pages on the subdomain/Show links ungrouped to access all of those.
Personally, I would think its probably not worth much to have all pages because that would include internal links, too. But for the largest grab of links, you could include those to analyze your competitors internal link strategy.
Best of luck with this. But as far as I know, the above mentioned settings are the most robust way to view competitor links in OSE or anywhere else in the MOZiverse.

Subdomain and nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority?
Greetings, I have a couple of questions about domain authority. 1 - The backlinks that come from different subdomains count several times or only once coming from the same domain? 2 - The nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority? Thank you.

Reports not up-to-date and competitive analysis
Hello everyone, I’d like to ask you a question regarding how to use Moz for competition analysis: I am assessing what the competition is doing and, at this stage, I was looking at how they built their internal link structure. However, the data I get from Moz at times are not consistent with what I see on the actual sites. For example, I was analyzing one specific page looking at its internal links, and the report was showing a much smaller number of linking pages than there actually are and this is because the index might not have picked up the changes yet, which makes sense. The thing is: how can I make a reliable analysis when the data I get may be outdated and a couple of months old? Thanks 🙂

Analyzing a competitor on Amazon

Here's the link to the competitor http://www.amazon.com/Native-Spring-Spiral-Vegetable-Slicer/dp/B00GHA3S4C/ I checked for backlinks with OSE but only 1 link was discovered.

Issues Checking Backlinks To YouTube Videos
Hi, Hope someone might be able to help here. I have been using OSE to check backlinks to sites without an issue. However, I do seem to have problems checking links to videos. For examplpe, I took a video url and checked backlinks and OSE reports 33 million just discovered, majestic SEO reports none and Ahrefs seems about right with 17. I was wondering if there is something I need to do to ensure OSE returns correct results for individual youtube videos. FYI, I am using the url that appears in the Google search. Thanks Mark
