How can I find all my "nofollow" back links?

[JordanGodbey]

Have you pulled a full report from Open Site Explorer or Majestic?

[absoauto]

I thought I had from Open Site Explorer but I didn't see the NoFollow links in there?

[JordanGodbey]

What's the URL, I'll try to pull a report

[absoauto]

http://www.absoluteautomation.com/driveway-alarm.html - and in case you can't the key phrase we're being nailed on is "driveway alarm"

On Open Site Explorer

it specifically states NO FOLLOW before the title of the URL

it reads (nofollow) Twitter as an example

Yeah it looks like there are a couple of issues going on.

• Looks like you are over optimized for exact anchor text links to that page for "driveway alarm"

• You also have a high number of total links, but a low number of separate linking root domains (according to OSE)

• Some of the links have low value/authority

I've attached the OSE report with all of the noFollow links to your site. Looks like there are many to the other pages, but not to that specific page.

Thanks, any suggestions how to go about fixing this?

When you say "the key phrase we're being nailed on is "driveway alarm" " do you mean you were recently affected by the Penguin update?

[absoauto]

I'm not positive, it was about that time. But it was only a 10 place drop, and from other Penguin stories it seems like Penguin would have been a more serious drop if that had been the case.

[JordanGodbey]

I'm not sure what would cause that drop if it wasn't penguin..

However, it looks like you're not competing on the first page for a few reasons

• WIth the exception of 3 domains, all domains have a domain authority of 60+ (yours is 41)

• All page 1 domains have 1K+ Linking Root domains (you have ~100)

My recommendation:

I would recommend that you focus on gaining high authority links to your driveway alarm page as well as the homepage, coming from separate root domains. You could do a guest posting campaign and focus on domains with a DA of 50+ over the next 3 months and try to get ~50 links and see how it affects your rankings.

Your anchor texts do not necessarily need to be overly optimized, just ensure that your on-page is as good as it can be (there could be some improvements there possibly) and aim for increasing authority, then the rankings will come.

Hope that helps some. Let me know if you have any questions.

Yah we've been starting to focus more on that, also upped our Facebook campaign for "likes". We were historically hovering right around 5 than boom down to 15ish. So you're probably right it was Penguin, thanks for the tips.
