Solved Moz Link Explorer slow to find external links
-
I have a site with 48 linking domains and 200 total links showing in Google Search Console. These are legit and good quality links.
Since creating a campaign 2 months ago, Moz link explorer for the same site only shows me 2 linking domains and 3 total links.
I realise Moz cannot crawl with the same speed and depth as Google but this is poor performance for a premium product and doesn't remotely reflect the link profile of the domain.
Is there a way to submit a sitemap or list of links to Moz for the purpose of crawling and adding to Link Explorer?

Is there a way to submit a sitemap or list of links to Moz for the purpose of crawling and adding to Link Explorer?Yes, Moz offers a feature called "Link Tracking Lists" that allows users to submit a list of URLs for tracking in Link Explorer. Here's how you can do it:
Log in to your Moz account and navigate to the "Link Explorer" tool.
Click on "Add a New Tracking List" or "Create a New List" (depending on the interface).
Enter a name for your tracking list and add the URLs you want to track. You can enter individual URLs or upload a CSV file containing a list of URLs.
Once you've added the URLs, Moz will begin crawling and tracking those links in Link Explorer.
Keep in mind that while this feature allows you to track specific URLs, it may not guarantee immediate or comprehensive coverage of all links. Moz's crawling capabilities may vary compared to search engines like Google.
By utilizing the Link Tracking Lists feature, you can submit specific URLs or a list of links to Moz for crawling and inclusion in Link Explorer, which can provide additional insights into your site's link profile beyond what is automatically discovered by Moz's regular crawling process.

Even though Moz's tool doesn't search websites as thoroughly or quickly as Google does, the fact that it's not showing all your links is worrying.

How does indexing backlinks affect SEO and search engine rankings?
Indexing backlinks plays a crucial role in the overall SEO strategy and search engine rankings. When search engines like Google crawl and index a website, they also consider the quality and relevance of the backlinks pointing to that site. Here's why indexing backlinks is important: Visibility in Search Results: Indexing ensures that search engines recognize and attribute value to the backlinks you have acquired. When indexed, these backlinks contribute to the overall link profile of your website and can positively impact your visibility in search results. Faster Indexation: By submitting your backlinks for indexing, you can speed up the process of search engines discovering and recognizing those links. This helps search engines recognize the relevance and authority of your website sooner. Enhanced Crawling and Ranking: Indexing allows search engines to crawl and evaluate the backlinks pointing to your site. These backlinks are considered as signals of trust and authority, which can influence your search engine rankings. Improved Domain Authority: When high-quality backlinks pointing to your site are indexed, they contribute to your website's Domain Authority (DA). A higher DA indicates a more authoritative and reputable website, which can positively impact your rankings and organic search visibility. Competitive Advantage: Indexing your backlinks gives you a competitive edge by ensuring that the value and authority of those links are properly recognized and taken into account by search engines. This can help you outrank competitors who may have unindexed or low-quality backlinks. It's important to note that not all backlinks may require manual indexing, as search engines can discover and index them naturally. However, for specific or newly acquired backlinks that may not be indexed quickly, manual submission or using indexing services can help ensure they are recognized by search engines and contribute to your overall SEO efforts.

No link to Open Site Explorer from Campaigns tracked keywords?
Hi there, The Guide to tracking your keyword rankings in Moz Pro states that "Click on the keyword to analyze it, the URL to be taken to that page in Open Site Explorer or the Optimize link to get a Page Optimization Score with recommendations.". But my URLs all target to the specific page on my site. I figure it would be nice to dive deeper in analysing specific pages, using Open Site Explorer Is just the link with Open Site Explorer broken, or is the Guide out of date? Thanks, Arnout

Why some of my strong backlinks don't show up in Site Explorer
Hello, Just was checking my backlinks and I see that few very strong backlinks are not showing up in my links list. I check with Moz bar in my browser and those are all dofollow links. Some of those sites link back to me a while ago. Thanks, Regards, Armands

Moz's Spam Score - WWW v Non-WWW
Given that going with a www or non-www TLD is a coin-toss in Google's eyes, I'm curious as to how this relates to Moz's spam score (if at all)? Specifically, we've got a client who has several sites across a number of industry verticals, and for some of them, the www and the non-www versions of their websites are both in play (sigh). Obviously we'll sort that out shortly, but my question is why, when we put both TLDs into Open Site Explorer does the www and the non-www version of the sites get different spam scores? With some of their sites (www v non-www) the difference in the spam score might be a 2 for the www v a 3 for the non-www. But in others it might be 0 for the www v 8 for the non-www! And it's unclear which one is the 'real' spam score, as there seems no rhyme or reason to the results. Anyway, any thoughts from the room would be appreciated.
