How to tell OSE about new backlinks
-
I've recently obtained some great backlinks from popular news sites but OSE hasn't picked up on them yet. Is there a way to "show" OSE what's happened, or do I just have to wait?
-
No Problem. As other posters said, it may take some time till the new crawl results are updated in OSE.
I have noticed many links to our site that are not included in OSE.

My observations are then if you add a site with existing links, OSE then trys to add pages that link to that site, as they seem to apear the next crawl, but are not theior already

ive had the same problem before. It is only a matter of time before OSE picks up on them, but unfortunately there is nothing you can to do expedite the process. If you are looking to build a report Google Webmaster tools or yahoo site explorer has a more complete link profile available for most websites. If you want to pull an SEOmoz report for a client though, your domain authority is derived from links that OSE gathers (from what i can tell), so you may want to explain that to your client and also show them the link profile from the sites suggested above.
Hope that helps!

OSE shows links based on the Linkscape crawl of the web. The crawl itself takes 2-3 weeks, and then the data is processed which takes 1-2 weeks. The next OSE update will occur on October 18th. Depending on when the links were added they may or may not appear in the next update. If not, they should definitely appear in November's update.
Realistically there is nothing more you can do speed up the process.

Yeah, I want to see where I stand vs my competitors.
Thanks for the quick answer.

There is no way to show OSE backlinks. OSE uses a web crawler that finds links automatically. It will not find every link, but should find most.
Any reason you want it to show in OSE?

13 New Quality Back Links But Little Improvement in DA and PA-WHY?
Since September 13 sites have linked to our real estate website. MOZ domain authority of these sites ranks from 45-83. MOZ page authority ranges from 25-36. Six of these links were created in the last 3 weeks. The remainder have been live since Late September/October. Our domain authority has only increased from 18 to 19 since September. Our site has only 805 linking domains. Why has the increase in domain authority been so little? I have read that domain authority it algorithmic and that improving up to 25 is not too difficult. A few notes about the incoming links: -11 of the 13 do not rank for any keywords, 1 ranks for 20 keywords and one ranks for 1 keyword.

-One has 12 inbound links, three have 1 inbound links and the remaining 11 have no inbound links.
-One has 4 linking domains, three have one linking domains and the reaming 11 having no linking domains.
-7 of the 13 are listing in Google Search Console. The remaining 7 are not.
-Only 3 of the 13 are shown as MOZ linking domains to our website.
-Website traffic has increased somewhat since link building began.
-There has was initially some improvement in ranking but that has dropped off. From the metrics above, does anything sound deficient about these links? Is the fact that they are not being picked up by MOZ a negative sign or is it just an indication that MOZ's link index is rather incomplete? How about the fact that the links are not indicated in Google Search Console? Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks,

OSE and Facebook
Hi, I recall being able to use OSE for Facebook. Take https://www.facebook.com/VICE/ which we know as a URL would have many backlinks. It's not registering any. Has this always been the case?

Open Site Explorer backlink results different that MajesticSEO... why?
When checking the number of external links linking to a site, Open Site Explorer and MajesticSEO give completely different results. In one case Open Site Explorer is saying the website has: "49 Total Links" and MajesticSEO is saying the website has: "6,143 External Backlinks (in the last 5 years)" and "497 External Backlinks (in the last 90 days)" Does anyone know why this is?

OSE shows 118 FB shares but we show more, whats wrong here?
I ran www.lauriloewenberg.com/ in OSE and it shows 118 Facebook shares while we see more than that. Maybe we are doing something wrong or a setting isn't correct, I'm not sure. The site was created in WordPress. Here are 3 posts that add up to 224 shares: Post 1 114 shares Post 2 64 shares Post 3 46 shares I'm sure there are some people that are sharing multiple posts, Will that make a difference? Even if that was true the number still seems very low. Thanks 🙂

Does OSE Anchor Text Distribution CSV include internal links or external only?
Quite often when I'm using OSE and perform a CSV export, it looks like the total inbound link count and many phrases come from internal links for the domain in question. I haven't had the time to try and figure this out and don't know exactly how to go about figuring it out. So the initial question is does OSE's anchor text distribution CSV include internal links or are they external only? And alternately, how do I test for this? I deal with sites that have tens or hundreds of thousands of pages and hundreds of thousands or millions of links...
