Linking C Blocks
-
Hello everyone!
Just looking to get more information in regards to Linking C Blocks in layman's terms? We have dropped from 10 to 2 since the latest Moz Open Explorer update and are concerned about this score. Our highest competitor has doubled what they had on the last update.
Anyone who can provide more information about this, we would greatly appreciate it. Thanks ahead of time!

Are you just looking for an explanation of what C-blocks are? There was an excellent explanation here a while back:
http://moz.com/community/q/linking-c-blocks
"It refers to the part of the IP address that's different. The same class C address means something has the same third octect in the address. In the following, the first three IPs are in the same class C, and the fourth address is not.
192.168.1.1
192.168.1.2
192.168.1.3
192.168.100.4
The reason we care is like what searchpl says -- it's a hint to Google that the sites are all related to each other and on the same server, and that the links may not be very natural since there is the good possibility that the same person set them up." (from Keri Morgret)

Why are none of the links we've received from press and other sources from the last two months showing on our Inbound Links in OSE???
It's really hard to judge if the DA of our site according to MOZ is 1) up to date and 2) accurate when for example there are SO many inbound links still not recorded, that were published months ago.

How Is a Page Crawled by Moz When Moz Says 'No Links'?
As above, really. I've crawled a new client's site to find the Moz crawler has identified a handful of 404 errors. The Moz crawler says these pages have '0 linking domains', and OSE has no data for these pages. So how are these pages being crawled by Moz and what should I advise my client?
