Can't find backlinks shown in report.
-
I ran an advanced report to show me all the backlinks pointing to a domain. When I go to many of the domains listed, I can't find the link. I've searched the pages by anchor text in the browser and nothing comes up. Anyone know why this would be?
-
My apologies. I missed your prior reply where you shared the link.
I found a link to the page on the site: http://www.articlesezines.com/getting-new-cushions-heres-how-to-measure-your-furniture-properly/
anchor text is "measure your furniture"
I used the site's Search box and looked for "measure your furniture" with the quotation marks. Only one result appeared and it has the link to your site.
-
In order to be helpful I would need to know the domain of your site which these links are pointing to.
-
There are many possibilities.
-
the links may have been removed for various reasons
-
the links may still exist on the site but be located on another page. For example if you have a link which shows ?page=4 and then more comments or info is added, the link may move to a different page.
-
the link may exist on the page in such a manner where crawlers see it but your eyes do not. Try right-clicking on the page and choosing View Page Source and then searching for the anchor text.
-
try using the site's Search function for the anchor text
-
try performing a google site: search for the anchor text on the given site
-
perhaps it is not anchor text but an image alt text?
Those are the main issues I can think of off the top of my head.

Since July 1, we've had a HUGE jump in errors on our weekly crawl. We don't think anything has changed on our website. Has MOZ changed something that would account for a large leap in duplicate content and duplicate title errors?
Our error report went from 1,900 to 18,000 in one swoop, starting right around the first of July. The errors are duplicate content and duplicate title, as if it does not see our 301 redirects. Any insights?

SEOmoz report vs. Google's Algo
Hello, I got an SEOmoz Report for one of our clients and the report is showing these pages and many more others as duplicate page content. Thing is the page content is not duplicate however there is very little data differentiating the contents. My question is does Google see the following pages contents as duplicate? because seomoz does. http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/img_9632/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/newly-renovated-in-victory-park.html/3-2/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/pedestrian-friendly-uptown-west-village.html/attachment/18/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/img_4322/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/historic-deep-ellum-lofts.html/2012-08-18-11-24-30/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/pedestrian-friendly-uptown-west-village.html/attachment/13/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/842-4/

Best Automated Report?
I would like to implement a reporting function to my website to offer a bit of value and information to potential clients. I am thinking along the lines of a simple input form to include a business name and url. The output would be a clean, branded (my business, url, phone) report that shows opportunities, lowest lying fruit, keywords most prominent, and any errors. I found this site - http://www.analyticsseo.com/ but, it seems pretty expensive. Does anyone have any suggestions on another suite that might work? Many thanks!

Backlink confusion
I've gotten confused when it comes to the Competitive Analysis Report in the Web App. I track in my own spreadsheet how many backlinks I accumulate. However, I had thought that the Competitive Analysis report would do that as well. But each month, the numbers of Total LInks- through Linking c-blocks changes up and down drastically. I clicked HELP to try and understand what each of these means, but could you please explain them to me? I was under the impression that External Followed Links are the ones I was going after, however, shouldn't my records match with the one in the web app? Somehow I went from 786 ext followed links in January, to 867 in Feb, to 804 in March, to 804 in April, then 973 in May, and dropped to 791 2 weeks later...I don't think I'm understanding how the web app calculates these numbers. And how come Domain Authority seems to fluctuate up and down? So what would be the best way to track my progress in accumulating backlinks? Would it be my own spreadsheet or do you have a tool for this? Because I'd like to see how many I've gotten since January, but don't understand how to see this in the webapp. HELP!
