Error on Incoming Links report
-
On a client site https://compassionateleaders.co.uk/ Incoming links is reporting a domain link from Huffingtonpost.co.uk amongst 30 others.
However when I review Inbound Links it is showing Zero results.
How is this possible? Is there an issue in the system?

@Marketing_Optimist The discrepancy between reported incoming links and zero results in inbound links can be due to:
Data Indexing Delay: There might be a delay in updating.
Link Removal or No-follow: The link might have been removed or marked as no-follow.
Data Synchronization Issues: Parts of the tool may not be fully synchronized.
Filtering and Display Settings: Filters might be hiding the links.
Canonical Issues: The link might point to a different version of the URL.
Tool-Specific Limitations: The tool might have its own criteria or bugs. -

How is this possible? Is there an issue in the system?Discrepancies between reported incoming links and actual inbound links could occur due to various reasons. It's possible that the data reported in the Incoming Links section hasn't been updated recently. Different tools and systems have varying refresh rates for data updates. Some links reported in the Incoming Links section might be from low-quality or spammy websites, which might not be considered valid inbound links by the system. Additionally, the tool might not have crawled or indexed all the inbound links yet, as it can take time for search engines and link analysis tools to discover and index new links pointing to a website. There could also be discrepancies or inaccuracies in the data reported by the tool, as automated systems sometimes misinterpret or incorrectly attribute incoming links. If you suspect there's an issue with the system or the data being reported, it's a good idea to reach out to the support team of the tool or service provider for further investigation.

Link building strategy - my weak link!
Please help me understand link building. I've read the articles on Moz, but they seem vague to me. Specific questions: 1. How do I get my webpage on good quality sites? 2. Guest blogging? Good or not? 3. What about when people pick up one of our blog stories and publish it on their site with a link back? Is that bad now because it is duplicate content??? 4. Forum posts with a link in the signature? Good or not? 5. Directories - I get it that these are no longer good... are they severely negative? Should I take them down. 6. PR - Looks like this is bad... right??? 7. Youtube - any value? 8. Pinterst, LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram? Any value to backlinks here? 9. What about sites like redit? 10. Anything else I should consider?

Internal linking anchor text with automated ASP.NET link building
Hi Everyone I really need some help here, the problem I have must be one that many have. I have a simple e-commerce style website so 1 product page can in fact get 40-50 internal links to it. These links come from a mixture of: 1. The parent category pages that the product sits on (Rugged PDA) and in turn the 10 filter pages of this category page (Rugged PDA, ordered by battery size). 2. Alternative product list on other product pages, So many products link to each other as alternatives. From Google analytics we can see that visitors like to browse product to product seeing 5 alternatives on each page with titles like "Smaller", "more rugged" etc. 3. Manufactuer pages, so we have a link to each product from each manufacturer home page where we talk lots about each manufacture we resell. We also have links from images used in the website. So its a nice usable website but we're finding that Google is still telling us in Webmaster tools that it thinks some links are dubious and we're trying to find out why. We only now have 190 external links to the website, most are internal and from the website or our blog on a subdomain. The problem we think is that we generate the category and products pages all dynamically so the anchor text is looking the same. Will this potentially create issues for us? Dave

Getting Links
Hi, Links from Directories are bad. Links for low quality sites are bad. Paid links are bad. Guest blogging is "maybe rumor has it" google's next big Penguin. Where and how is everybody getting all these great links from, is there anywhere left?? All advice welcomed as we really need good links quick! Thanks

Internal Link Building
For a large part of our SEO we have been focusing on inbound links (mainly from guest posts and blogger reviews). But our rankings have dropped (though I understand there is a natural fluctuation in rankings quite often) this week and it occurred to me that we should be focusing more on internal link building as well. We, of course, link often to our home page and have related products on every page but we lack a lot of direct key word links in in our description. Would it behoove us to be on a specific product page--take for example owls and friends wall decals--and somewhere in the description add something like "our nursery wall decals are safe for....and have "nursery wall decals" be the direct link since that is a key term for us? I just wanted to make sure that we are headed in the right direction before I spend a massive amount of time updating all these product pages. Any input would be really helpful. Thanks so much, Elizabeth

.edu links
Hi mozzers, I've had some great success reaching out to many .edu webmasters. Often they are professors and such. My question is, i'm guessing during the summer holiday period, reaching out to these webmasters won't be so fruitful. I'm not in the US and was wondering when the US Summer holidays are for universities over there? Also, does anyone have experience outreaching to these webmasters over the holidays? Peter
