Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help team here!
After being found, newly discovered links have the ability to be populated into our index in about 3 days. However, there are a lot of factors which can affect our ability to find and index links to your site. It's important to note that we are always adding new data to our index, but it may take some time for us to discover backlinks to your site based on factors like crawlability of the referring pages, quality of the links and the referring pages, and more.
If you are not seeing links that you know you have, you may want to make sure that they can be indexed. It is also a good idea to check to see if we've indexed the page on which that link is found. If we haven't indexed the referring page yet, you won't see your link in our index
You can also add links to Link Tracking Lists. Once you add a link to your tracking lists we will add that page to be crawled. As long as it is accessible to our crawler, you should see the link in our index as soon as we can index those pages.
Lastly, I have a great guide here with some things to check around why we may not have found your links yet: https://moz.com/help/link-explorer/link-building/moz-isnt-finding-your-links
I hope this helps — let me know if you have any further questions!

A couple of things 8111:
You're going to have to give it some time. Link building is not a process measured in days or weeks. Even months can go by before a specific page with a link gets crawled. In fact, some links are never crawled if it is on a very low quality page. Just for those reasons, the mind of a link builder is always looking forward to find the next high quality link, not looking back to see if a three-day old link is having an effect on their site's ranking.
As a qualified link builder, you really should already know if the link is OK or not. Moz is great for organizing and reporting on all your back links for you, but as the link builder should already have a good idea of their value by virtue of the page they're on. If that's not the case, my friend, you should spend your time building up your knowledge of the topic before you actually build more links. You could end up hurting your site or a clients, if you don't.

Open Site Explorer and Expired Links?
Hi guys, I've been checking a few domains for SEO purposes and it appears that OSE is indexing a lot of links which no longer exist, this has been the case for over 6 months - does OSE cleanse expired links? As I'm sure they will be contributing to authority in the eyes of Moz?
