Why is OSE showing a higher Domain Authority than Moz?
-
Moz has today run monthly reports for 2 of my clients' sites. For both of these, the Domain Authority reported on the Moz dashboard is several points lower than that shown by OSE today for the same sites. Why would that be?
-
Sorry if that wasn't clear! By "soon" I meant within the aforementioned 24 hour window. We fixed this ~11:45am today, and the collections are beginning at 4pm this afternoon, so by 4pm tomorrow, you should see data (I just talked to the team and they said it might take a big more time than that - maybe 30-36 hours depending on where your campaign might see in the queue of those needing updates).

Thanks Rand - when you say "soon", do you think that will be within a week? I'm just wondering whether to hang on before sending my monthly reports out to clients.

Hi Maureen - sorry about that! The issue is with the switchover from the old index to the new one we rolled out. For the first 24 hours, sometimes the old one will show because of a caching issue. They should both be the same very soon.

Internal Equity-Passing Links not getting crawled in Moz Open Site Explorer?
Internal Equity-Passing Links not getting crawled in Moz Open Site Explorer. What is the cause of this? We've checked the robots.txt and htaccess file, but so far we can't find anything that would be blocking Moz from crawling the internal links. We manage loads of other clients on this platform and this is the first time we've run into this issue. What else can I check?

Moz showing +3M new inbound links. But nowhere to find them?
Hi there Moz is showing a +3M backlink rise in the dashboard for one of our domains. The site has always had around 350K backlinks and in Ahrefs and Majestic it still shows this number. But Moz shows a growth of +3M in the last two weeks. Is there a way to see where these backlinks come from in OSE? I can't seem to understand how it is possible to see this somehow. Can it be a mistake of Moz maybe?

Discrepancies between Mozbar data and OSE?
Hey everyone, I've been doing some research into keyword competition, and i've come across a few instances where the data that Mozbar provides differs pretty greatly from what open site explorer is telling me. An example: For this site: http://www.bcwsupplies.com When I have it returned in the serps, Mozbar is telling me there are 21,306 links & 218 linking root domains. But, when I check the backlink profile via OSE, it's only showing 3,020 links & 88 root domains. Can anyone shed some insight into this? Thanks!
