OSE is broken again
-
Getting errors all the time.
-
I'm so glad to hear that! Please do let me know if you run into any other trouble.
-
Seems to be working. Today had no problem.
-
I am so sorry that you ran into this issue again. It looks like there were some after effects of the changes we've been making to stabilize the servers for OSE. The issue should be resolved now, but please let me know if you are still experiencing problems.
-
Sorry to report that, but it's either still broken, or broken again.
Got this few times in the last couple of hours.

I have been using OSE over the weekend and it was still broken. Today it seems to work.
-
Thank you so much for your amazing patience! Our engineers released a fix on Friday evening and we've been monitoring the issue over the weekend. Right now, everything seems to be running smoothly again, so please take a look and let me know if you are running into any further issues with OSE.

This is actually a related issue. In order to balance some of the load on our servers, we had to slow collection for the Just Discovered Links and Freshweb tools. We believe that we will be able to backfill the data, but there will be a delay in when the data will be available.
Again, I apologize for the inconvenience this causes!

Hi Chiaryn!
Having a similar problem, however I'm missing two days of data when I use the OSE / Just Discovered tools (3/21-3/23). Wanted to flag with you just in case this is a related issue!
Thanks!

Thanks.

I just wanted to give you an update and let you know that we have made some adjustments to lighten the issues you've been encountering. You may still see some intermittent issues making queries in OSE, though they should be much less frequent, but I'm afraid we are still working on clearing out the backlog of exports this issue created. I'll let you know as soon as I have any more details.
Thanks so much for your patience while we continue to work on this.

Thanks for following up. Since this is intermittent, it definitely sounds like a load balance issue. Our engineers are looking into this now and I will let you know as soon as I have an update from them. Hopefully, we'll get this resolved soon.
I apologize for the inconvenience this is causing!

Here you have it:
It's true sometimes it works, let's say 1 out of 3 queries, my guess is a load balancer is sometimes redirecting the query to something working.

Hey Massimilliano,
I'm not seeing any issues when I run queries through OSE, so it would be really helpful if you could let me know exactly the error message you are seeing and the sites you are querying when you get this error? A screenshot of the error would also be helpful.
I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

How much time does it take for OSE to recognize backlinks?
Hi, We've ramped up our PR since 2-3 weeks and have been mentioned in a lot of publications including a big name like Forbes. But the OSE moz tool still shows zero backlinks to our domain.

Backlinks dropped in OSE
Hi Webmaster, I just checked my website backlinks In MOZ OSE (Open Sire Explorer) tool, from the recent report history, I took the following details, June 29,2014 - 775 links
Link Explorer | | zco_seo
Aug 13,2014 - 783 links
Apr 06,2015 - 861 links
Aug 10,2015 - 880 links
Sep 16,2015 - 880 links
Feb 16,2016 - 569 links
Mar 03,2016 - 672 links
Mar 23,2016 - 55 links (Only coming from blog comments, also different targeted pages, I just removed few blog & forum links, that was around 100 only) Is there any tool issue? But In Google search Console (Google Webmasters Tool) it was saying more backlinks. But, at the same time, I checked my competitors website too, they were having more links with target page only. If anyone know the answer for this, it will be good for us. Thanks in advance,
Cheers,

Why isn't OSE showing any of my links?
My domain uses a redirect of all traffic to https. The site is https://www.tallslimtees.com. I've been working on it this year and know there are several good, topical links coming in. But OSE shows nothing. Any idea why this would be the case? How can I see all of my links and the data on them?

Discrepancies between Mozbar data and OSE?
Hey everyone, I've been doing some research into keyword competition, and i've come across a few instances where the data that Mozbar provides differs pretty greatly from what open site explorer is telling me. An example: For this site: http://www.bcwsupplies.com When I have it returned in the serps, Mozbar is telling me there are 21,306 links & 218 linking root domains. But, when I check the backlink profile via OSE, it's only showing 3,020 links & 88 root domains. Can anyone shed some insight into this? Thanks!

Why does OSE & Moz Q&A sections not work for me in Chrome any more?
A few weeks ago I started seeing instances of OSE not showing all the information when it was showing I was logged in while using Google Chrome. It would work, then not work and kept showing me the button to sign up for Moz Analytics even though I was logged in. I'm a Pro Member, which is confusing. Then I noticed that while logged in, I would be logged out somehow when trying to contribute to the Q&A's and it would bounce me back to the Moz Home page or show me the white Login button in the upper right. Again, in Chrome only. I was told by support to clean my cookies/cache and that works for maybe a few hours, but then would resort back to logging me out. It has become very annoying, and now can only work logged in from FireFox. Not a huge issue, but everything else I do all day is in Chrome. Is anyone else having this same issues? Any recommendations? Thanks in advance. - Patrick
