I need to get a list of the external links. I don't find that report, where do I get it?

You can also get these from Google Webmasters - http://www.google.com/webmasters/
If you don't have a GA account this is ESSENTIAL - So Sign up!

Do the same for Bing! http://www.bing.com/toolbox/webmaster/
and Yahoo Site Explorer http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/

When you are the the HOME page - select your site by clicking the link under SITES
Click the + next to Your Site On The Web - then Links To Your Site
Then click More >>
Download ALL Links
and save the CSV file that contains a list of all external links to your site.

First you need to setup your site in a campaign. You can do that by clickjing the grey "Start a new campaign" button. Once that is done and SEOmoz has time to crawl/run your reports, you can see external backlinks by clicking on your campaign, then clicking on the "Link Analysis" tab, then if you scroll down you will see a preview of all "Followed Backlinks". There is a brief list there and you can export a full list by clicking "Export to CSV"
If you are wanting to run a simple backlink report you can just use Open Site Explorer : www.opensiteexplorer.org

Google Analytics Landing Page Report Discrepancy
I have noticed that when I run a landing page report and use the advanced option so I can view only the landing pages that include a particular string in the URL, have noticed that I in the report, the graph at the top will say one thing, but the data below says something else. For example, the graph for one particular search shows 200 Impressions, but the info below says 700 impressions and 610 clicks. Anyone seen anything similar or have any ideas why? Thanks! Craig

Is there an automated way to determine which pages of your website are getting 0 traffic?
I'm doing a content audit on my company website and want to identify pages with zero traffic. I can use GA for low traffic, but not zero traffic. I can do this manually, but it would take a long time. Are there any tools to help me determine these pages?

Linking Multiple Niche Site In Same Google Analytics Account
Hi, I am providing SEO for Local business. Is it advisable to separate out the Google Analytics into different Google account or is it ok to remain it this way? Some of the client might be in the same niche, and might be competing with the same keywords as well. What I was worried is, Google might see these sites as same owner and only rank for 1 of the site. I was thinking to get the owners to register for their own Google Analytics and share the access to me.

Tracking clicks from a specific link
Hi all, I'm looking for a bit of help with Analytics. I want to track the number of clicks that my main CTA generates over the course of the month. I've got all my goals set up correctly, but is there some sort of code that I can add to that specific link which will count the goal conversions which it generates? Do I need to set up something specific in GA? Thanks a lot for your help,

Email campaigns. Should I link to my blog or to my site?
I have a client for who we write and post a daily blog article. The articles are optimized and linked to particular targeted content on his top level site. Now we are going to start e-marketing to his 3000+ website users to announce inventory changes and specials. My question is (from a SE standpoint) are we better off linking the e-mail content to the blog and introducing people to the blog (but adding an additional step for getting to the new inventory. Or are we better off putting a link in the HTML E-mail letter that we send out to both the blog and separately to the inventory section? Just to clarify, we wonder if the search engines would provide some additional authority for the extra blog traffic and thereby build the overall score of the blog & site. We are looking at the e-mail campaigns as a potential opportunity to impact SE scores not just awareness of new inventory. Thanks everyone!

How to locate a back link
GWT says that a large popular site with DA 70 has a link to one of our recently published pages. Is it possible to find the location of that link using GWT? I don't think the SEOmoz tools can find it, perhaps because our page is too new. Best,
