Hey,
Thanks for reaching out to us!
Open Site Explorer and the Link Analysis page of Moz Pro Campaigns are both tied to our Mozscape index, which tends to update roughly once a month.
Just a few points on how we compile our index:
-
We grab the most recent index.
-
We take the top 10 billion URLs with the highest MozRank (with a fixed limit on some of the larger domains).
-
We start crawling from the top down until we've crawled ~130 billion URLs
The idea here is that we're focusing on the highest-quality links we can find, coming from the most prominent pages of authoritative sites. So, while you may not see every link for a site within our index, we're aiming to report the most valuable ones available!
Most new sites and links will be indexed by our spiders and available in Mozscape and Open Site Explorer within 60 days, but some take even longer for many reasons, including the crawl-ability of sites, the number of inbound links to them, and the depth of pages in subdirectories. This tends to bias our index in favor of newer links. Linking data is only stored in the index for about 180 days, so unless the crawler has a compelling reason to return to your site and the sites linking to yours and rediscover those links, they can fall back out of our index again.
Total links to the domain includes internal, external, follow and no followed links.
Internal links are links from one page of your website to another page of your website. This would be something like a "Contact us" link in your navigation that points to your contact page. Internal links are not only the ones in the menus, they can also be links pointing from one post on your blog to another post on your blog. You can learn more about Internal Links here.
External links, on the other hand, are links from an outside domain to your site. For example, if a page on geekwire.com linked to a page on moz.com, that would be considered an external link because it comes from a domain outside of moz.com. You can read more about External Links here.
Linking root domains simply refers to the number of unique domains that are linking to your site. A single domain can have multiple pages linking to your site, but two links from the same domain (website) would only be counted as one linking root domain.To find out more about Link Equity, check out this link! https://mza.seotoolninja.com/learn/seo/what-is-link-equityFeel free to contact us at [email protected] if you want us to take a look at specific results which you are getting.Looking forward to hearing from you,Eli

Why aren't my "page social metrics" increasing?
I post a lot to Facebook & twitter, & my "page social metrics" haven't budged in 4 weeks. I even stopped using bit.ly & stated the full URL as a test. Still no change. The fb account is /getgoodgifts & twitter is /giftsing. Thoughts on why social metrics aren't increasing?

How can I tell what pages have links TO this page?
Hello, Mozzers! My client has a rather messy situation, with redirects for HTTP vs. HTTPS, and two different home pages, both in subdirectories. I could explain the whole setup, but I don't think it's relevant for my question, which is this: OSE is showing three links to the page in question, but doesn't tell me WHAT those links are. Am I just missing the information somewhere? Please see screenshot for details. Thanks so much! ~ Scott view?usp=sharing

OSE Getting Less Accurate
It seems that the more links I get the lower my DA is. My DA has been dropping for some time now as I gain more backlinks. It also does not seem to pick up anywhere close to the number of domains that is linking to my site. My url is hiddentriforce.com GWT says I have over 600 domains linking in. The majority of the links are from news or articles that we cover which other sites pick up and link to us as the source. We also have a ton of scholarship links from .edu and education sites from a giveaway that we do every year for students. Why does OSE seem to lower my DA the more I get off-page factors to the site?

Internal links - OpenSiteExplorer vs Webmaster tools
Hi guys, I run Opensiteexplorer on the website www.fazland.com (in italian...). (https://mza.seotoolninja.com/researchtools/ose/comparisons?site=www.fazland.com) It only shows ca 240 internal links where I know there are plenty more also shown in Google Webmaster Tools. I cannot figure out why it can crawl so few links - Google shows 79.000 links found and internal links are pretty well established. Any suggestions from your experience on this difference? Cheers, Rob

How can I use Open Site Explorer to Identify why my own URL's are appearing as inbound links
I'm a new member of Moz, and am trying to understand why I am seeing my sites URL's in my Inbound Link results in Open Site Explorer. There are quite a few, and they are all product category URL's that are generated by my stores database. This is not happening with .html URL's. Any thoughts?

How to increase number of internal links
Hi all, Using Open Site Explorer and Moz, we're getting only 50 internal links and like to know why. Our site is an online store with a quite good DA (26, see attached files) comparing with competitors, and all pages are in sitemap since several months, and crawled by google. Assuming that we have more than 2000 products in our site, and more of 10000 crawled pages with a link to the home page, we can't understand how "Total internal links" returns only 50. How can we increase internal links? Perhaps we misunderstood the meaning of "Total internal links" in page metrics. What does this value exactly mean? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. wuud3Lu RRvn31p

Links from no-indexed pages in Open Site Explorer
I just looked up a site in Open Site Explorer. After putting in the site, I get a list of domains, links etc which is very useful. At the bottom is a note which I have pasted below. It mentions "24 links from no-indexed pages" and says we can't get any info on these. Is there a way to see what the 24 links are so I can investigate further?"Why does my number of inbounds links listed not match my total links count? The listed number may be slightly different because we only show 25 links per domain (so that you see a variety). Additionally you have 24 links from no-indexed pages. Unfortunately, we can't get info for those links."
