How do you check for .gov and .edu backlinks using the new link explorer?
-
I'm trying to do an audit but I can't seem to figure out how to find .edu and .gov backlinks from the new link explorer. Can someone please help? I'm trying to learn how as open site explorer will be replaced by the link explorer.
Thank you!

It shouldn't take too long to generate
-
I guess that's the easiest way to do it. It just takes time to generate so I looked for other ways. Thanks anyway.

Yes, I did try the Ctrl + F but I was looking for a faster process since I can only view about 50 rows and if this certain site has thousands of linking domains then I'd have to click next and do the search command for each page. Thanks for your help by the way!

Following on from Nicholas's answer. Once you are in the 'Linking Domains' section you can also choose to export as a CSV should you have numerous linking domains and search that way
Let me know if you have any other questions!

One way to do it is to enter whatever you are URL you are plugging into the Link Explorer, then go to "Linking Domains" on the left-hand menu. Once there you can do a "Command + F", or whatever the search command is on your computer, and then search .gov or .edu to see if the URL you typed in has an .edu or .gov links pointing to it.
Although I would start with Moz's Link Explorer, this may be a good link search to cross-reference with Ahrefs, as they will show you if the Domain has any .gov or .edu links in the general overview once you enter a URL to analyze.

A simple count (with list if possible) of the external and internal links on a website
Dear Moz Community, I am trying to find a way to easily analyse a website (http://uk.chm-cbd.net) to determine the number of internal and external hyperlinks throughout the (roughly) 490 webpages within the site. It would also be extremely helpful to have a list of all the links with their url. Does anyone know of a tool, methodology to do this? If it requires a lot of programming then that does not help me very much as I am not very computer literate!! So a software to download or an online service would be very helpful. Open Site Explorer seems to be limited, such that I would have to do an analysis on each page within the website. BUT, if anyone knows how I can do using OSE, then please tell me. Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help Hugh
