From the looks of it that just means that 60% of your external backlinks are 'followed', meaning they contribute to Google's rankings. External links are the links which your site has gained from other domains (which link to you) thus they are probably not under your control anyway

Its been more than a month now, but it still doesn't show up in the link explorer, how much time does link explorer take to update the linking domains?

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?

Is there a way to utilize MOZ to view all links pointing to a website? Any other ways to fine tune the link analyses process when it comes to quality SEO?

Open Site Explorer Only showing 2 Internal Links

Hi, for some reason Open Site Explorer only shows 2 internal links linking to our homepage (and other pages). When looking at a competitors site, they have thousands of internal links to their homepage! Are there any reasons why OSE is only showing 2 for our site, when in fact there are hundreds and thousands? Thanks.

Why do 0 back links show for my website in Open Site Explorer?

I've read and understand that all back link tools results will vary from one another but Open Site Explorer and some others find 0 linking to my site. Webmaster tools show 46 back links. Is this because they are all "no follow"? I'm trying to get a grip on SEO but am very confused from the get go. Thanks, Todd

Root Domain and Subdomain Links OpenSite Explorer

I'm using opensite explorer trying to explore who is linking to my clients site. In the main blue area it shows total links as 20, which I understand is to the specific page. In the Root Domain Metrics it shows 4,032 external links. Sub domain Metrics shows 1,973. How do I find out where the links are? I tried creating a advanced link report with the "Links that to" are checked off as "any page on this root domain" and only shows 91 of the links? What am I doing wrong or missing?
