OK. I am an idiot. The first step is admitting I have a problem, which I gladly will do.
So we have https://, https://www, http://, and http://www. I only had one of these set up in Google Search Console because we were trying to just use one. Even though those links were to https:// they showed up in https://www. Should I set up all of these with Moz?
One of the links in question is from a major news source in a major market. It is the biggest newspaper in Dallas. It is also more than 30 days old, so I would be shocked if Google hasn't crawled the article. We have gotten a good deal of traffic from it.
I will check out Google support site you linked to. Thanks!
The site is using https. www redirects to non-www. Search console is also https. Additionally the links I am looking for all use https. Everything seems to be https without the www. So not sure why we are not seeing the recent inbound links.
The site I am working on did not have their site submitted to Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools). I submitted the site and a sitemap that auto updates. Google is crawling the site daily (about 30 pages a day). Under Search Traffic > Links to Your Site it shows no data is availible. I thought it was because it was a newly submitted site, but it has been two months now.
Moz seems to have the same issue. Moz does show inbound links, but their are some that we think should really help us that are not shown. For instance, the Dallas Morning News wrote this article. They have a high DA and PA. Also, iliveindallas.com has an article about us that is still on the front page. That was a few weeks ago but also does not show up on Moz or Google SC.
We are trying to be selective about the links we are getting. That they are follow links from reputable sites. Worried that both Google and Moz are not showing them.
Which is better for SEO: blog.site.com or site.com/blog. In other words, is it better to have the blog running in a subdomain or as a director within the main site? Right now we are running as a subdomain, but want to be sure Google isn't considering that a separate site. The blog shows up separately on Google Analytics, which makes me think site.com/blog is better if for no other reason, it would give our domain greater traffic.
Not sure if this matters, but some site info:
