OSE Says no Contact Information
-
For quite some time the Open Site Exporer has been labeling one of my sites has having "no contact info", the site has the phone number all over the website as well as the full business address in the footer. It's been like this for some time. Does the OSE make mistakes or am I missing something? The contact information is fully indexable, I ran a spider simulator and it was able to pick up the phone & address.

Hey Oliver
The only contact information we are looking for is the mailto: email address tag in the source code of a page which is only if we decided to crawl the page. We do index many links without crawling. Also our data is not a live representation of links/domain status as we also could have indexed a link up to 190 days prior.
Hope this helps!

Hi Oliver,
It does the same with my site, and although I have social icons throughout the site, I don't advertise an e-mail address because of spam.
Remember that OSE just takes a number of metrics and gives an estimation. This by no means is assuming that you are doing anything wrong, more that the crawler can't see where you address and details are - it might even be just 1 element of the address that is missing to it and it still reports it as a whole.
Don't worry about it at all.
Check your site in Google by doing cache:www.site.com and checking that Google sees your address. If it does, don't worry.

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?

Loving the new OSE integration!
Finally, OSE is now like "integrated" in Moz! And it looks awesome. Not only from a design perspective, but also, I think all the login issues in that past I was having are now solved! Nicely done Moz!
