No Link Data Available for this URL appears often. Are my sites too small to show up?
-
I am on the trial until Mar 5, 2012.
I seldom get the info I want. Is it because my sites are too narrow a niche?
I don't seem to be getting the data I'd like from your service. I'm trying to like it, but when I keep getting messages like this, it makes it hard to justify:
"No Link Data Available for this URL appears often"
Sample sites that I am unable to get data. I especially would like to know how many backlinks exist for each site. I paid someone to help me with them and I'd like to verify their work.:
http://costaricadentistreview.com/
http://costaricadentistreviews.com/
http://costaricadentalimplants.org
Any suggestions?
Thanx

Thanks for the insights and thorough reply. Actually both 1. and 2. are in play.
Number 1. because the site is new like you said.
Number 2. because the second site, http://CostaRicaDentistReviews.com has had a hired "SEO Expert" who has been working on it since early Jan 2012 whereas the one without the 's' at the end, i.e. http://CostaRicaDentistReview.com has had little done to it.
As I stated in another 'Thank You' reply, I setup both so I could test the two. One with no work, the other being worked on by the hired SEO guy. He said it would take about 4 months for results to show, which makes sense. But, here I am paying him each month, hoping he's right.
One red flag that I see is that he is submitting the same short content ( 3 lines) to every bookmark site. Seventy-five per day.
I am not that SEO knowledgeable but this seems like Google suicide to me. But, he's the "SEO Expert" so what do I know, right?
Thanks again for your help and time!

Thanks for the reply and helpful answer and comments. The second site, http://CostaRicaDentistReviews.com is the one that I have an "SEO Expert" working on whereas the one without the 's' at the end, i.e. http://CostaRicaDentistReview.com has had little done to it.
I setup both so I could test the two. One with no work, the other being worked on by the hired SEO guy. He said it would take about 4 months for results to show, which makes sense. But, here I am paying him each month, hoping he's right.
One red flag that I see is that he is submitting the same, short - very short, as in 3 lines in length short - article to each bookmark site. To me, this is Google suicide, but he's the "SEO Expert" and I'm only the lowly novice with the bad feeling in my gut.
Your answer helps me see that I am jumping the gun, looking for results too early. I'm doing that because I'm paying for the backlink work and suspecting it's for naught because of the replicated content.
Ok, too much info probably, but I wanted to say thanks, and I got carried away. Thanks again for your help!

It's usually 1 of 2 causes that will give you a blank result on Open Site Explorer (OSE).
1. the site is so new, or the newly built links to the site are so new that OSE has not had time to crawl and display those links in their most recent index update. SEOmoz updates the index in OSE once every 30-40 days.
2. all of the links pointing to your sites have not been crawled by OSE. OSE crawls a big portion of the Internet, but it does not crawl 100% of sites out there. So, if we are talking about a site with only a small handful of links, it's quite possible that OSE just doesn't have the crawl depth to pick them up.
Scenario 1 is the most probable case. I looked at the whois information for the first URL you provided, and the domain was registered in December. So, if your site has been active for less than a couple months, I would suspect your link building activities trailed that by several weeks. I would suggest giving it more time for any links you've built (or paid to have built) will start to show up.
In the meantime, you can work on establishing your on-page SEO elements. Have you created a campaign in the SEOmoz tools yet? That is a great start. Good luck!

I checked the first site you linked to and it seems pretty new - just about 2 months old I believe? It doesn't seem to have any links/ authority as of yet and thats why it gives you that "No Link Data Available..." message.
Try acquiring some links on other relevant websites and checking back a few weeks later.

"Not enough data for selected time period" - Google My Business Insights
Hello All, Has anyone come across the following message "Not enough data for selected time period" when they choose a time frame in Google My Business (GMB) for one week. It seems to be consistent with "Customer Actions" and "Where Customers View Your Business on Google sections. I'm confused because I am pulling in a minimum of 500 searches a week according to the "How customers search for your business" section. I can scroll over top of each day in these areas and manually write down the results, but what's the point of offering a 'one week" insight if it won't calculate for you. If anyone has had the same issue or knows what's going on, please let me know. Thanks!

Suspect Links from Yeusaigon.net Causing Server Errors
Good morning, Webmaster Tools is reporting an increase in server errors on our site due to some very suspect links from Yeusaigon.net. After taking a quick look, it appears they are some form of search engine attempting to link to our images by using incomplete URLs. For example: http://yeusaigon.net/search/images.php?q=htc%20one%20max%20phone%20cases&page=1044 Is linking to: http://www.mobilemadhouse.co.uk/caseflex-htc-one-max-real-leather-flip... As this URL is incomplete, it's throwing up a server error. There are currently 139 instances of there errors from the same domain, and is increasing by around 5-10 per day. The domain, however, is linking to some of our pages/images correctly, but I fear Google may look at these as spammy links - they certainly look that way! So, what can we do? I can't find any contact details on Yeusaigon website so I have disavowed the entire domain. Is this the right thing to do? How do I stop the ever-increasing number of sever errors due to incorrect URLs? Cheers, Lewis

Is there any way to find out how many people blocked our site in Google?
With it being a factor in Panda, I would like to know what the number is and whether it's high / low compared to other sites etc. I kind of doubt a lot of people would have blocked us, but I'd like to at least be aware of whether that's a problem for us.

Link Analysis Past 6 Months
I'm analyzing inbound links for a site and I was wondering if there is a way to see how many of the links were created in a certain time period? Example how many inbound links were sent to this sub domain during the past 6 months? I would think there would be a fairly simple way to do this, but not sure. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Why did I loose all my product page rankings (e-commerce site)
This friday I noticed that I'd lost pretty much all my product pages in the SERP and also their rankings for the product names. These are products I both have introduced to the market (sweden) and also some that I've been the only one selling. I've analyzed a couple of different ranking-faults. Examples: **"super mario väggdekaler" should rank **http://www.roligaprylar.se/Super-Mario-Vaeggdekaler.html as #1 and has done for several years. Instead this search in my internal search engine ranks #10-#15 with no relevance. www.roligaprylar.se/?q=mario%20v%E4g "jedi morgonrock" should rank www.roligaprylar.se/Jedi-Morgonrock.html as #1 or #2 but instead this url ranks as #12 www.roligaprylar.se/product_detail.php?pid=Jedi-Morgonrock "Charlie sheen bobblehead" (in the swedish serp this should be the most simple term to rank on. previously #1) my internal search engine ranks for #8 with this url <cite>www.roligaprylar.se/?q=Charlie%20Sheen%20Bobblehead</cite>J So I've drawn these conclusions and actions Products that don't rank well longer but still ranks with their alternative non-rewritten url has gotten deep links from affilliates (i track affilliate ids and stuff via this link) and have replaced the original url which is rewritten. Action: Canonical urls for these non-rewritten products to the rewritten version. For example on this product page www.roligaprylar.se/product_detail.php?pid=Jedi-Morgonrock I've placed a canonical for this url www.roligaprylar.se/Jedi-morgonrock.html With the products not ranking at all or when searches in my search engine shows up I suspect some kind of dup content punishment where Google thinks the search result is more important than the product page. Action: All search-pages are now noindex,follow I also increased product name density in terms of keywords on the product page. But I'm still owned and losing tons of money during the holidays (buying adwords at obscene amounts instead hehe). So just wanted to hear with you guys. Are my conclusions and actions correct? What have I missed, what more could I do to reverse this? Thanks Dan
