Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi, I am forming below url to get backlinks. http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/url-metrics/".$trimurl."?Cols=2048 &AccessID=".$accessID." &Expires=".$expires." &Signature=".$urlSafeSignature; For Example, if I keep $trimurl = "www.tatvic.com/" , I get  [uid] => 633. Is this a right way to get number of backlinks ? If not, what should be the 'Cols' value? Also, how can I ensure that the number of links I am getting is correct ? Is there any way to compare this number with Google search results? This is very essential to check as I got different number of backlinks on different APIs. Thank you.

Hi, I am using LinkScape API to get follow and nofollow links . I use cron to get data for each url of sitemap.xml. However while cron is running, the extraction of data hangs on some pages which i later need to delete manually for re starting the execution. Do anyone have any idea why this is happening ? How can i ignore such pages ?

I am using free link API to get total number of internal links,
external links, follow links and no follow links by using *
http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/links/* url. I have given following attributes along with the url as, SourceCols=4 TargetCols=4 Scope=page_to_page Sort=page_authority Limit=1000 Filter=nofollow By implementing this, I am getting array for each filter and by counting
array size, I can get the count of total links. This is a long procedure and seomoz link API is taking a long response time. Is there any way by which I can get the total number of link for each
filter directly ? Or is there any other alternative ?
