Hey Everyone!

The DA that shows in campaigns will take about 24-48 hours to appear. You can search directly in OSE to see what we have in the current index. If you have not seen any changes to your DA, this means you are looking at cached data which we can store for up to 6 months if we are not discovering new links to have reason to re-crawl your site. Check the Just Discovered section to see when we found new links and add 2-3 months to those dates which is the amount of time it will take to appear in an index. Higher DA sites with 60+ almost always have new links discovered so the update intervals are more frequent for them.

This can also help you isolate any reasons why you might not see our tool detect new or removed 301s, etc.

Hope this helps!

Hi Art

I just want to confirm if you are seeing incomplete, duplicate, inconsistent listings fall off but not see the score increase? If those changes are not picked up, this would explain the score from not moving. Picking up those changes will depend if the service we are querying has updated their API. Most of the services we are searching will host two databases, one which can be accessed live directly on the page. If our tool is not picking up the changes, then you would need to report those services to let them know their API is not reflecting the updates.

If they are being picked up and the score is not moving, I am researching this with our engineering team and will let you know what I find out.

I also wanted to chime in and mention that it takes about 2-3 index updates for us to process discovered links. Newly created links a month prior to a release generally won't appear in next immediate release. The best way to know when to expect your links to be included in the index is to look in the Just Discovered Links tab and pay close attention to the discovery date. Links discovered in March/April, could potentially show up in a June/July update. Sites with high domain authority always have links that are always being picked up so their fresh links "stack" and their DA remains stable with slight increases or decreases.

Hope this helps!

Also would you be able to provide me with examples of which search engines you are updating the data for? Our engineers confirm that low impact search engines such as hotfrog and city search won't affect the score too much. High impact will be the 7 services we are in partnership with and Google/Facebook/Bing.

Hi Lucas

Glad to hear you were able to find a workaround! One concerning bit is the disabling of the BrowserAgent security check. Would you be able to check with CloudFlare to see if this is recommended? Your findings may benefit many users that run into this issue and we can recommend this setup to other CF users.

Cheers!

Hi Marco

Having the URL will definitely help. You can email us at help@moz.com if you wish to keep it private.

Cheers!

The fix we are working on involves a complete re-write of our crawler which will take time to complete. I'm afraid I do not have an ETA but will keep this thread posted with any updates.

Hi Irving!

Thanks for the heads up! I will let our engineers know so we can fix this asap. Will update when I have new status.

Cheers!
