OSE is broken again
-
Getting errors all the time.
-
I'm so glad to hear that! Please do let me know if you run into any other trouble.
-
Seems to be working. Today had no problem.
-
I am so sorry that you ran into this issue again. It looks like there were some after effects of the changes we've been making to stabilize the servers for OSE. The issue should be resolved now, but please let me know if you are still experiencing problems.
-
Sorry to report that, but it's either still broken, or broken again.
Got this few times in the last couple of hours.
-
I have been using OSE over the weekend and it was still broken. Today it seems to work.
-
Thank you so much for your amazing patience! Our engineers released a fix on Friday evening and we've been monitoring the issue over the weekend. Right now, everything seems to be running smoothly again, so please take a look and let me know if you are running into any further issues with OSE.

This is actually a related issue. In order to balance some of the load on our servers, we had to slow collection for the Just Discovered Links and Freshweb tools. We believe that we will be able to backfill the data, but there will be a delay in when the data will be available.
Again, I apologize for the inconvenience this causes!

Hi Chiaryn!
Having a similar problem, however I'm missing two days of data when I use the OSE / Just Discovered tools (3/21-3/23). Wanted to flag with you just in case this is a related issue!
Thanks!

Thanks.

I just wanted to give you an update and let you know that we have made some adjustments to lighten the issues you've been encountering. You may still see some intermittent issues making queries in OSE, though they should be much less frequent, but I'm afraid we are still working on clearing out the backlog of exports this issue created. I'll let you know as soon as I have any more details.
Thanks so much for your patience while we continue to work on this.

Thanks for following up. Since this is intermittent, it definitely sounds like a load balance issue. Our engineers are looking into this now and I will let you know as soon as I have an update from them. Hopefully, we'll get this resolved soon.
I apologize for the inconvenience this is causing!

Here you have it:
It's true sometimes it works, let's say 1 out of 3 queries, my guess is a load balancer is sometimes redirecting the query to something working.
-
Hey Massimilliano,
I'm not seeing any issues when I run queries through OSE, so it would be really helpful if you could let me know exactly the error message you are seeing and the sites you are querying when you get this error? A screenshot of the error would also be helpful.
I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
Chiaryn

OSE not picking up all internal links?
Hi! I've been checking a few pages in OSE. For example: https://www.holidayhypermarket.co.uk/holidays/last-minute This, according to the tool, has only 6 internal links. However, a Screaming Frog crawl picks up 700+, which is about right seeing as there is a link in the footer. What do you think could be behind the discrepancy?

How can Ahrefs be better than OSE ?
Dear Sirs and Contributors, I know this question is going to cause revolution, but I am paying for a subscription to moz every single month and I see that Open Site Explorer doesn't find baacklinks for some of my new clients when aHrefs can find more than 16 !! Why is this ? How can a free tool like ahrefs give me more information than OSE for which I pay for ? ;-(

OSE Advanced Reports - behaving inconsistently
Yesterday, there was an error message on the Advanced Reports tab in OSE: "Oops! It looks like our system is temporarily down. Please check back soon." That cleared up after a couple of hours. After that, I ran an Advanced Report that I run on occasion, and it only returned 3500 links, whereas it normally returns around 23K. Since then, I've run the same report 9 times in total over the course of about 1 day, and each time the number of links keeps increasing. 3500, 10150, 21550, 25400, 28650, 35450, 37400, 38200, 50375. I'm wondering what is happening? I want to do some evaluating of my backlinks, however I'd prefer to work on a "complete" list of links and the number of links keeps going up, when generating reports using the same criteria. When can I expect Advanced Reports to be "stable" where it's producing roughly the same number of links? Also, I opened up a support ticket on this with Moz.com over 24 hours ago, and haven't received any response. I've updated the ticket 2 times now, but no response. Disappointing they are not responding to support tickets. Thanks.

Why does Google Webmaster Tools report I have inbound links from over 120 different domains and OSE reports I have 7
My client's site is www.graysonmountainrealestate.com. Google Webmaster Tools reports I have over 120 different domains linking to the site. Why does OSE report only 7? Thanks, Ken

Updating OSE data
Hello Moz, I was wondering if anyone knows how Moz goes about updating their OSE data? I've been doing some link building that past couple of weeks, and I notice that the number of "just discovered" links will update every time I gain a new link, however, the "Linking domains" number doesn't (or maybe, rarely) update. I've checked through the "Linking domains" list to see if the link is there, but none of the links I've just recently obtained have shown up under that metric. Does anyone have any insight on this or is anyone experiencing the same issue? Thanks for reading!

OSE and HTTPS
It's been quite a few months since the last updates regarding HTTPS crawling of OpenSiteExplorer. https://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/20770156-open-site-explorer-to-crawl-https http://moz.com/community/q/in-opensiteexplorer-why-is-https-not-an-option But, as the last update dates October 2013, is there any news in regards to the progress on this subjects? More and more sites are switching to full HTTPS and support for this has been asked and responded upon for over two years. Thanks for any updates.
