Am I using OSE wrong?
-
Hi - new to all this!
A link on a competitor site is showing as 404 when I check it with OSE but nothing on the page seems to be broken.
It's got loads of links to it, so I'm trying to work out what's going on. I just filtered the results by '40?'.
Thanks

Fresh links on sites with high authority can queue new links and sites to be recrawled. Our index starts from 0 each update so we would need a reason to recrawl external domain with links. Most sites the have continuous link building are kept updated in our index. There has been new links discovered and are in the queue to be processed which can appear in the next 1-2 updates: https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/just-discovered?site=www.copyblogger.com&filter=&source=&target=domain&page=1&sort=crawled

How often do you crawl sites (and in particular that site)?
-
The last time we crawled the site was on January 14th and it does appear many pages were not available until January 16th.

Hi. I think that's a fair response, if it weren't for the fact that the majority of the links showing up seem okay...
Here's an example: http://www.copyblogger.com/2015-online-business-report/

Hi There!
The 404 may have existed when we first discovered the link. The data in OSE is not a live representation as we can cache data for up to 190 days.

Can you provide us with a URL to see for ourselves?

Discrepancy between OSE internal links and Webmaster Tools
Hi, We have been attempting to increase our rankings for our key term for a number of months now, and we are seeing an unusual discrepancy between OSE and Webmaster Tools that we believe may be causing us harm. OSE shows our homepage, www.unionroom.com, as having only 27 internal links (only three of these aren't 301's too), whereas Webmaster Tools is showing just over 1,500 internal links to the homepage. The three pages that OSE are displaying as linking back to the homepage are the homepage, our blog and our accessibility page. These pages are all ran off the same template and have the same header and footer (with three home links spread across header and footer). You can see our confusion! Is this a case of OSE's stats being incorrect (the website has been live for ~6 months) or is there an issue with our in-linking structure that we are missing? Thanks!
