Welcome to the Q&A Forum

If there don't seem to be links to other pages either, could it occur when links are in a different format, e.g.

http://countymotorworks.co.uk

http://countymotorworks.co.uk/

http://www.countymotorworks.co.uk

Thanks for bearing with me!!

Ok, thanks Kenny.

You've answered my question, but as a follow up: How do links accumulate for a root domain but not for a homepage?

Many thanks,

Josh

Hi Kenny,

Thanks very much for your response and suggestions.

I wasn't sure how necessary the URL would be. Here it is: http://countymotorworks.co.uk/

I'll take another look over the help (this is probably user error!). But if you get a mo to run a quick test with the URL that would be awesome.

Cheers!

Josh

Hi,

I'm just taking my first steps with Open Site Explorer. I've hit a problem that I'd be really grateful for some help with.

I'm running a website (that I didn't create) and want to get a clear picture of the inbound links. When I enter the URL into the OSE search bar, there are no external domains listed under the 'Inbound Links' and 'Linking Domains'  tabs. Only internal site links are registered.

Setting the filters, "only external" + "pages on this root domain", under the Inbound Links tab, does bring up a list of external sites. But I haven't had to enter filters just to see a list of inbound links with any other sites. Also, the breakdown under the Linking Domains tab remains the same - only links within my site are shown.

Does this ring a bell? Any ideas what I might be doing wrong, or what might be wrong with my site to cause this problem?

Cheers for helping,

Josh
