How long before new links show up in OSE?

Hi - How long should it be before a brand new external link to our site shows up in OSE?

OSE is updated roughly every 4 to 5 weeks. The next update will be the 27th of this month. Once it is out, I would suggest that it could be the update after that if your link was fairly recent. OSE crawls all the time now, but the data must be parsed, then the update is put out. So, if you got the link three weeks ago, it is still unlikely you would see the link in this update.

The update schedule is here: Linkscape Schedule

Here is a good post by Rand on Linkscape and OSE.

I normally work on around 60 days (or two runs of the crawler)
