6 Months and still no PA/DA or links by Moz Explorer?
-
Hi,
It's been 6 months and my site is still showing no PA/DA or backlinks according to moz opensite explorer. I know that it has backlinks as I created them myself, and I know its crawlable and the links is there as GWT tells me so. Also you can check for yourself on ahrefs.com.
Is Moz indexed pages that much smaller then the other crawlers?
The site in question is amanandvan247.com.
Thanks.

Hello again - it's hard to say exactly why a website isn't picked up in our index updates. We are constantly working to improve the way our crawler, Rogerbot, operates, so I'm really hoping that your site is picked up in one of the next updates. For now, the best strategy is to keep working on your link building and watch the update schedule for our next index.
Thanks,
Kevin

Doesn't really help. Every other crawler on the net has indexed its pages, google, majestic, ahrefs. Had SEO done on it for past 4 months building backlinks, social bookmarking and even a backlink from the agency that built the site which is indexed by moz.
According to ahrefs, it has 61 backlinks from 19 domains, 67% of which are dofollows.
It's very strange that after 6 months Moz is still acting as though this website does not exist?

Thanks but I have already done all those
Webmaster tools also says there is no problem with non-indexable pages. I've had it submitted to all the top directories for UK and even has a backlink from an agency website which built it, a site which has been indexed by moz.com.

Hi there! Open Site Explorer pulls from our Mozscape index, which updates about once a month. It looks like our next update is scheduled for September 9th. You can always check our update schedule whenever you like!
Most new sites and links will be indexed by our spiders and available in Mozscape and Open Site Explorer within 60 days, but some take even longer for a variety of reasons, including the crawl-ability of sites, the amount of inbound links to them, and the depth of pages in subdirectories.
Just so you know, here's how we compile our index:
- We grab the most recent index
- We take the top 10 billion URLs with the highest MozRank (with a fixed limit on some of the larger domains)
- We start crawling from the top down until we've crawled 180,000,000,000 pages (which is about 35% the amount in Google's index)
Therefore, if the site is not linked to by one of these seed URLs (or one of the URLs linked to by them in the next update), then it won't show up in our index.
We update our Mozscape Index every 4 weeks. Crawling the entire Internet to look for links takes 2-3 weeks, but our crawlers are always collecting data. When we need to put the index together, we grab all the data they have collected and start processing, which can take up to 3 weeks to determine which of those links are the most important.
Mozscape focuses on a breadth-first approach. This means that we almost always have content from the homepage of websites, externally linked-to pages, and pages higher up in a site's information hierarchy. But deep pages that are buried beneath many layers of navigation are sometimes missed and it may be several index updates until we catch all of these.
If our crawlers or data sources are blocked from reaching those URLs, they may not be included in our index (though links that point to those pages will still be available). Finally, the URLs seen by Mozscape must be linked to by other documents on the web, or our index will not include them.
For now, the best thing you can do to help your domain become indexed is to work on link building for links from sites with high Mozrank.
I hope this information helps! While the site and links may not be indexed yet, give it some time - maybe we'll see 'em in OSE next month!
Thanks,
Kevin

Nice Site!
That is odd, it looks like you only have 166 pages indexed with Google. I would upload your sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools as well as Bing.
Also try Fetch as Google in Webmaster tools under "Crawl". Post your main url and be sure to click and all linking urls. This could help speed things up.
With Wordpress you can create a sitemaps with the "Google XML Sitemap" plugin. I also recommend "Yoast SEO" If you have not installed that.

Open site explorer: error message "There was an error getting your data"
I"m trying out MOZ, wanting to make an informed decision (for myself and my blogging students) whether this is a useful program to buy and use. I've had no luck so far with the Open Site Explorer. Each time I try, I get the same error message, "There was an error getting your data". I used the URL: http://writetodone.com I asked about the problem in the chat, but my question was posed over an hour ago and is still marked 'unread'... I"m keen to continue studying the program as I'm creating a video about MOZ. How can I make the Open Site Explorer work? I've tried the Analytics module but it seems to take some days to get results.

I have a robots.txt error on Moz but not on Google Webmaster tools. Wondering what to do.
For the site www.patrickwerry.com, I'm getting a DA of 1 and a Error Code 612: Error response for robots.txt However, when I check webmaster tools, it's showing no errors and allowing robots.txt for the domain. Is there anything I can do to fix the issue on the Moz side so I can get better data? If you can respond in layman's terms even better. 🙂 Not an SEO. Lisa

OSE - Link Opportunities
I'm checking out this new Link Opportunities feature for one of our sites and what I'm seeing right now is pretty disappointing. For Reclaim Links, everything listed is an internal link on our site. It's got tons of URLs from our old Iciniti structure (replatformed to Magento mid-March). It's crawling tons of stuff that's blocked in robots. There are no links from external domains in the first 5 pages. For Unlinked Mentions, it's showing tons of mentions - 33,566 to be exact, a ridiculous number - mostly from news sites like Forbes, WSJ, Guardian, CNN, etc. These sites are not mentioning us. It's set up to look only for our brand name or domain name, so I don't know how it's thinking there are all these nonexistent mentions. What's going on with Link Opportunities?

Do 'Just Discovered' Links get added to the main link index?
Hi, I was wondering if the 'Just Discovered' links get added to the main link crawl index? It would seem to make sense for them to do so, as this would enable the enable the link index to be more up to date than it would otherwise be. Observing the link index it would seem that at the moment it does not do this and they are totally separate indexes (based on personal observation). Thanks
