Why is my internal followed links is 0?
-
My internal followed links is 0. Also for top pages the report say "block by robots.txt" but the Moz bot is able to crawl my site and generate report for 10K pages.
Please help me understand why.

Hi Naman,
I found the culprit! It looks like you are blocking rogerbot from crawling here:
User-agent: Ezooms
Disallow: /I just learned today that we have a crawler alias, Ezooms is an anagram of Seomoz
Removing this will let us crawl.
Hope that helps!

Hey Naman!
I took a look at your site and I do see a lot of heavy javascript usage which might be confusing rogerbot. I've opened a ticket with our engineering team to double-check to make sure we are crawling your site and I will reply with an update sometime tomorrow.
Cheers!

When I try to filter your links to internal it appears your have no internal links period. not sure why, but I do know that OSE spider works a little different than roger bot for moz campaigns per experience with some template and AJax/javascript sites.
I also do know this is the case between google and OSE. OSE does not equal google. not even close. trust your GWT data unless someone from moz can calrify why is this happening
also, i just randomly clicked an image on homepage and checked the source code, i see quite a number of no follow tags
use CTRL+F yourself to see what I mean, search for the word follow and highlight all to see them
also i see this which is a bit odd and may be part of the reason your internal links are not being read as well <a class="attribute-value">http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb</a> ???

A single metric to evaluate link quality?
We're using Moz and Ahrefs to monitor backlinks that we're getting to Siftery. Given that there are so many factors that affect the potential quality of a backlink - domain authority, page authority, context, anchor text, etc. - is there a single metric that attempts to quantify the value of a link? I realize that this would be an inexact science, but it would be a helpful view to get a quick directional sense of what are our most valuable backlinks (and be able to tie it to the campaigns that led to them, for example). If there's no "single metric" out there, are there heuristics that people have withstood the test of time? Thanks for your help!

Internal Links Data on OSE and poor ranking despite excellent metrics
Hi folks, I use OSE a lot for comparing where we stand against our competitors and I'm always surprised to see most of our competitors have loads more internal links than we do. For example, comparing 'www.kensyard.co.uk' with 'www.sterlingbuild.co.uk', we are better on every Root Domain Metric except for the Total Links metric and this is down to a much smaller number of internal links. They are ranking better than us in Google so I'm wondering if there is something wrong with the way our site is coded / structured that means Google and OSE are not picking up our internal link network properly? We have over nine times as many external root domains linking to our site than theirs, which is surely a far more valuable metric than internal links right? Or is there an issue with our internal link structure that is confusing Google and causing us to rank lower? Many thanks for any advice, Luke

Need help locating a 404 link
My reports are showing a 404 error for a link to a page in our WP site for which we changed the URL months ago. I can't find where the link is coming from. I used Screaming Frog, but can't find where it might tell me the origin of the link, only that it exists. I am pretty sure it's internal. Can someone please tell me how to find the originating page so I can remove the link without having to comb through every page of the site to look for it? Thanks!

Open site explorer - Analysing competitors links
When using open site explorer to analyse my competitors links, when going through them, I would click them to have a look at them. Almost all of the ones I clicked on something started to download on my computer and would be a blank page or the tab would disappear when the download begun. What is this? Why have they done this? Is this bad practice? Thanks

OpenSiteExplorer is not seeing all my inbound links
I know I have back links to my site from about 5 or 6 websites and most of them even show in my Google webmaster account but according to OSE I only have 1 inbound link. Is it normal for the OSE stats to be wrong? I really want to use it but am worried the info isn't going to be accurate.
