Site Explorer shows links as followable but they have nofollow tags
-
Hello,
I am looking at site explorer and sites linking to my site moneyfact.co.uk.
I've got thousands of links showing as 'followable' but when i check them they have rel="nofollow" tags.
e.g:
Why would they show as followable when the links are nofollowed?
Thanks
Steve

Hello,
Does anyone have any idea why these links show as followable when they were nofollowed 6 weeks ago?
Any answer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Abe,
Nofollows were added on 15th March 2013. Should that change have been picked up by now or should I wait?
Thanks
Steve

Hello Steve!
I'd love to help. My first question would be, when were these nofollows added to this html? If they were added recently, our update may not have caught them..

I see nofollowed links as well. Maybe a bug in OSE? Probably best wait for the next crawl, see if this persists and contact SEOMoz support otherwise.

Open Site Explorer - Link Export Not Showing Same Number of Links
Noob question. I'm using Open Site Explorer to hunt down some external links for a website. In the attached image (post-pressing the filter button), it says I have 889 external links, but after I've downloaded the CSV, I only get 695 links. Why the difference in number? And if I'm doing something wrong, how do I make sure I'm getting the full amount of external links to my client's website? Thanks! GG6wURf.jpg

Link from Dr. Oz web site not being seen, what are we doing wrong?
Newbie so this may be SEO 101... Quick back story: My wife Lauri is a Dream Expert who has been on over 5,000 radio shows, TV shows like Good Morning America, the Today show, the View, in major magazines and newspapers, the list goes on and on, I'm not bragging actually the opposite. Lauri barely exists online and to top it off we don't seem to be getting any "link juice" from some big sites that have linked to us. Here is just one example of many: Our site: theDreamZone.com Here is a page on Dr Oz site that links to us, anchor text at top right "Click here": When you use On site Explorer this link isn't there, what are we doing wrong? Our plan is to build a new site (LauriTheDreamExpert.com) and get these links and many others pointing to us correctly so she can get the exposure she's earned. Lauri was also on the Dr Oz TV show : Watch it if you like. Thanks for any wisdom, Mike

Moz Toolbar Analyzer - Links
On the moz toolbar there is an Analyze tool. The third tab is for viewing Page Attributes. That page contains a section called On Page Links. I can see the External Link count, but I need to drill down further to look at these external links. I have viewed a page and don't see the external links this tool is seeing. I have searched the page, the source code, and used other tools on the page. The numbers don't match up. Is there a tool which lists all the external links on a given page?
