OSE - Link Opportunities
-
I'm checking out this new Link Opportunities feature for one of our sites and what I'm seeing right now is pretty disappointing.
For Reclaim Links, everything listed is an internal link on our site. It's got tons of URLs from our old Iciniti structure (replatformed to Magento mid-March). It's crawling tons of stuff that's blocked in robots. There are no links from external domains in the first 5 pages.
For Unlinked Mentions, it's showing tons of mentions - 33,566 to be exact, a ridiculous number - mostly from news sites like Forbes, WSJ, Guardian, CNN, etc. These sites are not mentioning us. It's set up to look only for our brand name or domain name, so I don't know how it's thinking there are all these nonexistent mentions.
What's going on with Link Opportunities?

Hey Autoschieber,
There's no manual refresh unfortunately.
The Reclaim Links report refreshes with every MozScape index update. So you'll see those changes reflected in the report when MozScape re-crawls the site at the beginning of November.

Is there a place where I can hit refresh. We relaunched our Site Kfz.net a few month ago and a lot of links where broken and had 404 responses (some fixed some not).
The page is showing a lot of links that are returning http 200 now. How can I refresh?

Hey,
Thanks for the feedback.
You can think of Reclaim Links as a curated list of your Top Pages. They're URLs on your site that have links pointing to them but can't rank or pass link equity due to problematic server responses or other conditions (4xx for example). The idea is to fix broken pages or adjust from 302 to 301 redirects when appropriate. There's a bit more information in the help hub.
In terms of Unlinked Mentions, if you want to narrow your results you can use Fresh Web Explorer operators to exclude certain terms/phrases. If you think the results are flat out inaccurate it's something we'll definitely want to dig into on our end. Feel free to send the domain you're searching for to the Help team and we can do some investigation.

Hi
It seems to be working ok for us, however whats your brand name?
If your brand is something like cheaplaptops then this is going to appear on these sites, when they are talking about cheap laptops, but they aren't obviously mentioning you.
I will take a look if you can send me your url or brand name.
Thanks
Andy

Spam links and Domain Authority
I have a site that I know was Domain Authority 35 but now Domain Authority 25 after someone sent a load of spam links to it, how can this be correct and how can I change it? Is it worth doing a disavow and will moz take that into account?

Open Site Explorer - Just Discovered Inbound Links
Hello Moz Forum, Thanks in advance for any help. My website was recently featured in a bunch of high DA journals and magazines. I don't see the inbound links on the open site explorer, but I do see them in recently discovered. My website's Domain Authority hasn't changed a wink. How long does it take, typically to see the recently discovered links under the inbound links portion? Thanks! j1pqVRt

Dofollow link from Moz user profile still not showing in OpenSiteExplorer
Hi everyone! Refering to my last question http://moz.com/community/q/dofollow-link-from-moz-user-profile-not-showing-in-opensiteexplorer, the last update was on March 10 and I'm still searching my dofollow link from my Moz user profile http://moz.com/community/users/625691 after have 200 MozPoints, Opensiteexplorer only found the nofollow link from the icon, but nothing from the anchor text of my URL. Is possible that only take the first link to my blog and ignore the rest if it have the same href? 😞 Thanks! fTdwaO6.png

OSE Stats - Number of Unique C IP's and PA/DA keep going up and down. Why?
For the past 3 months (if not more) I have been checking my sites stats on OSE and have noticed drastic decreases and increases in unique C-IP's, ranging from 600 to 1200. I have also noticed the PA & DA going up and down by 5 points. We have a talented team that work hard to market our business ethically with strong content and PR relationships, white-hat link building all the way, active social media and a dedicated on-site technical team. The data from MajesticSEO seems to be a lot more steady and consistent. Why is OSE showing drastic changes in 1 to 2 week intervals? Many thanks Ross

301 Redirects: How long for Google to recognize? How long for Moz/OSE to recognize?
I redirected a few pages that had funky URL issues (capitals and underscores and useless words) to the same page renamed with proper URLs. The sitemaps were changed also, and re-submitted. Like this: mydomain.com/Not_Pertinent_Words.html >>> mydomain.com/good-words.html Google seems to have found them and changed the search engine results listing in about 8 days. But it's been about a month now and Moz and OSE still have not transferred all the strength and link data from the old URLs to the new ones. Question 1: How long does it usually take Google to transfer all the link and strength data for a 301? Question 2: How long does it take Moz and OSE to do the same? Is there something I need to do to tell them about the changes?
