Hi Tom,
Thanks for your reply. What I'm trying to do is find a particular link from the domain https://apprenticeshipvacancymatchingservice.lsc.gov.uk which is the uk apprenticeship vacancy website to the website of the company advertising the position which in a particular case is www. homecolours .com.
I cannot seem to see this backlink even though the backlink is from a very high authoritative .gov site.
When using opensiteexplorer it doesn't show and I was wondering if I'm not giving it enough time to show up. Is there another tool which I can use to find a specific backlink rather try to discover as many backlinks as possible?
Kind regards,GoMetrics
Hi, I've noticed that when some companies are advertising for apprentices on the https://apprenticeshipvacancymatchingservice.lsc.gov.uk website they gain a followed link from the site. When I then use opensiteexplorer the link doesn't show. Does anyone know the reason for Moz not picking this up? Am I not giving it long enough to show? Your help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks for the replies.
I can see that IKEA doesn't have such a pretty looking URL but other big companies do. Looking at what other companies show up for the phrase 'black leather sofas' there is SCS and Harveys which are very large companies here in the UK and leaders in their field. Using the Open Site Explorer the large compaines out do this cmpany easily with considerably more links. Surely its can't just be down to their pretty looking URL can it?
Thank you for the quick reply Nedimtalovic,
Surely IKEA and DFS would be able to outrank this company easily by being so large and having many links to their root domain? IKEA and DFS are much more well known and have a much higher authority. I can see that Leather Sofa World so have some good external links but this only looks to be a few in comparison.
I would assume these really large sofa companies would have teams of people working on their SEO but this small company do not seem to lose rank at all.
I'm really puzzled how for many keywords the company www.leathersofaworld.com, a retailer of sofas is able to out rank very large companies such as DFS.co.uk and IKEA. They rank 1st for the phrase 'black leather sofas' and have done for a long time. They currently rank 4th for 'leather sofas' and don't seem to move.
Having looked at their back links, I can't see anything special and their domain authority is only 25 compared to DFS which is 45.
Can anyone help me with this?
Looks like your connection to Moz was lost, please wait while we try to reconnect.
