Open Site Explorer Messge - Mysite.com redirects to www.mysite.com
-
Hello All,
When I plug in my site's URL http://mysite.com ( Not my actual URL of-course) into the OpenSiteExplorer tool I get the following message:
"You entered the URL http://Mysite.com which redirects to http://www.Mysite.com/.
Because it's likely to have more accurate metrics, we're showing data for the redirected URL instead.
Click here to analyze http://Mysite.com instead?"Not sure why I am getting this message. On my hosting server, I have defined my preferred domain to be the non-www. version. I have also used a Canonical Tag on Mysite.com/index.html file ( ). In addition, on Google Search Console ( Webmaster Tools ) , I have added both the www. and non-www. properties, where on both property settings, I have defined the non-www. version as my preferred one. Also, on my server, I have not implemented any 301 redirects at all.
So my questions are:
-
Why am I receiving this message when plugging in my non-www. URL version of my website into OpenSiteExplorer?
-
Is my DA or PA possibly being split up between the two versions as a result?
-
Should I be concerned?
-
How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jorge,
Did you managed to sort this out? I have exact same issue on my domain too.
My message is like this.
You entered the URL https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ which redirects to http://www.a-fotografy.co.uk/. Because it's likely to have more accurate metrics, we're showing data for the redirected URL instead. Click here to analyze https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ instead?
**https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ **is my current domain. I'm not even sure why it is redirecting to my old domain.
Let me know if you managed to sort your issue and I see if I should do the same.
Thanks.
Regards,
Armands

1. You may receive this probably due broken redirects.
2. No.
3. Yes.
4. Check redirects. You can use cURL or wget (console apps). You also can use SC "Fetch & Render".
If you're afraid - PM me with link to make some tests.

I don't know how to approach this situation or what the correct fix is. Any advice would be much appreciated!

Inbound Links - How accurate or up-to-date is Open Site Explorer?
When I type my domain into OSE I get a list of linking domains. Most of them I have seen before and I know were active last year. However, when I click through, many of these links have been removed (which is what I wanted/requested) and some of the pages return 404. Google (via link:www.mydomain.com) doesn't show these links as active either. My question is why does OSE show them? Thanks

Page Authority dropped to 1 for subdirectory in my site
Hey, one of my sites https://www.automationanywhere.com/testing has had all it's pages drop to a page authority of 1 in Moz and the campaign doesnt appear to be indexing any pages from this directory. We launched a new site in this directory on the 12th and havent been getting any moz love since. The pages are indexable and followable, and are being indexed by google and others. The site on the root domain has been unaffected. Please help me get my moz campaign back on track. Thanks!
