      In OpenSiteExplorer, I clicked "Download CSV" for a report on backlinks from one domain to another. The online visualization in OSE showed 93 external inbound links from site A to site B.

      When I opened the report, there are only 25 linking pages listed. How do I download the full list?

        Hey Daniel!

        This is Megan from the SEOmoz Help Team.  Can you let me know what URL you're analyzing in OSE?  If you don't feel comfortable sharing that information publicly, please let us know by sending a message to help@seomoz.org and we'll take a look asap!

        Cheers!

          Did you use any of the filters at the top of the page? For example there is a "Group by Domain" filter which will then show only 1 link per domain.

          If you look at the email which included the file, it will list out any filters used to generate the report.

            Hey Ryan - It was a domain to domain report that listed all the pages that link to one specific "domain A" from another specific "domain B".

            In OSE it lists out all 93 links just fine, but then the exported file only shows 25 links.

                If you are willing to share the URLs involved and the specific filters or parameters for the report, I can try to share feedback. Otherwise I will leave you in Megan's capable paws.

                  Thanks Ryan, but I'd rather not. It's some research on an old link deal we had that we're rolling back. I'm not exactly proud of it 🙂

                  But I can tell you I started by running OSE on Domain A. Then filtered for "External Only" and "All Links to this Root Domain" and "Group links by Domain". Then scrolled down to find the domain I was looking for backlinks from, clicked the plus sign next to their name, which revealed 3 of the top links back and a link to "view all the links from this domain". Clicking on that takes you to the report I want to export.
