Can't see the link I earned from Moz in OSE
-
Hi Mozzers,
A month ago I got the nofollow tag removed from the first custom link on my Moz profile but I can't see this in our links on OSE? SEO Spyglass shows it just fine.
Is this related to the delays in the back end of Moz or have I set up my profile wrong?
Cheers!
Jamie

Thanks David, that clears that up!

Hi Guys
Moz.com is treated the same way as other sites. It could take 2-3 index updates for our crawls to go through all community profile pages to update metrics. For Jamie, we have never crawled your profile page so where your profile exists on the site might be too deep for us to find. Try to remember that OSE crawls for fresh and diverse links. We aren't big enough yet to crawl all pages on every site so the more links you have to a specific page from other external sites can help.
Hope this helps!

Cheers Dirk, I figured as much.
Not to worry!

Hi Jamie,
The link in your profile looks ok (it's not a "nofollow") - I guess that the issue is more related to the data delays of Moz OSE.

How can Ahrefs be better than OSE ?
Dear Sirs and Contributors, I know this question is going to cause revolution, but I am paying for a subscription to moz every single month and I see that Open Site Explorer doesn't find baacklinks for some of my new clients when aHrefs can find more than 16 !! Why is this ? How can a free tool like ahrefs give me more information than OSE for which I pay for ? ;-(

How long does it take for moz to index new domain?
Hi, Two months ago we changed our site www.jicht.nl to jicht.nl. Everthing is redirected properly but the page authority remains 1. How long does is take rogerbot to index the site without www? Google rankings are also dropping so there might be a bigger issue. Thanx

Removing the clutter of site-wide links
I have a multi-part question with regard to the moz link index and some presentation suggestions. Firstly I would be interested to know how the link index treats site-wide links with regard to metrics such as DA, and PA. We all know that it is highly likely that SE's are unlikely to pass full link value across from sitewide links, and therefore it would make sense for Moz values to account for this as well - if they do not already. One annoying thing that also relates to sitewides is that they tend to clutter the much of the information presentation in a few of the tools (you can't see wood for trees as it were). This is most prominent in the "Just Discovered" page - if you have a sitewides on a large site, you can often find that this screen is just totally filled with these links as they are found. It would be very useful to be able to filter these out, as they are of little interest - currently I can't see a way of filtering them out. A further value where they create to much noise is the 'Total Links' value. Where sitewides are included in this value, the value actually becomes pretty meaningless as you can find that the majority of that value is sitewides. It would therefore be useful if there was another value for 'Total Links - Excluding Sitewides' where maybe value of 1 was just added to the count for a site wide

Updating OSE data
Hello Moz, I was wondering if anyone knows how Moz goes about updating their OSE data? I've been doing some link building that past couple of weeks, and I notice that the number of "just discovered" links will update every time I gain a new link, however, the "Linking domains" number doesn't (or maybe, rarely) update. I've checked through the "Linking domains" list to see if the link is there, but none of the links I've just recently obtained have shown up under that metric. Does anyone have any insight on this or is anyone experiencing the same issue? Thanks for reading!
