Inbound link not showing up.
-
Helloi ,
So i am pretty new to the MOZ community but already love it! learning so much! however ...
I have set a crawl for our website http://www.robinsonsmotorgroup.co.uk after talking with our marketing departmnet they wanted some informtion on a add placed on http://www.eastlife.co.uk/ - the add was placed on the homepage. However i cannot see the http://www.eastlife.co.uk/ coming up as a backlink.
Why is this?
Best Wishes
Simon

Hi Martin!
Two possibilities immediately come to mind.
The first is that that link simply hasn't yet appeared in our Mozscape link index. You can learn a bit more about how we index the web here, under the Frequently Asked Questions tab. The next update is projected for June 23.
The other possibility is that the link is marked "nofollow" or is otherwise uncrawlable, which is often the case with ads. If that's the case, it may never show up in OSE. That said, since an ad is a paid link, it really wouldn't be a part of your organic link profile.
Does that make sense?

Well looking at that page Simon, I see lots of scrolling adverts, but if you want some page data, head over to SEMrush and enter that URL.
Any more questions, just ask

It's hard to say Simon. That is something only Moz could answer for you.
What data is your marketing department after? If it's click-throughs, then you will be better setting it up as a click event to be tracked in Google Analytics.

Hi Simon,
When was the ad placed? If it was recently, it might just not be picked up by anything as yet.
What are you using to look for back-link data? If it is OSE or similar, remember that they don't have every site and page in their own database, so might just not be crawled as yet.

Inbound link analysis
Hi all! we are doing some back link analysis on a clients competitors site. The competitor has roughly 300,000 links generated from an estimated 1,500 domain names. Is there an easy way to determine how many of the 300,000 links come from which of the 1,500 domain names? Essentially we want to see which of these domain names are generating the majority links? Is there a tool we can use to determine this? Or is it good old fashioned leg work? Ideas...? Thanks in advance 🙂 Phil.

About Link Earning?
I own an e-commerce store and I am get started with my SEO strategy. I know content is extremely important when it comes to link building, however for an e-commerce store what can I do as far as content. So far my only idea is blog posts. It's a furniture store so videos are really hard to do. The blog posts relate to home decor and interior design. My question is if people are going to be linking to my blog, will this help my website rank for product terms? The blog is part of the website, websitename.com/blog.

Reciprocal links
Are they worth anything, if they are from relevant sites? I'm I better off avoiding linking back wherever possible?
