          What do you mean "not being counted as links".  Do you mean that seomoz isn't picking it up in opensite explorer or that it isn't appearing in webmaster tools?

          If you just mean open site explorer then don't worry. OSE only crawls a small portion of the web and it's purpose is to give you some analysis rather than a defininitive link.

          If Google isn't picking it up and it has been there a while you just need to get some links pointing back to it.  Drop your twitter handle if you are guestposting / using author boxes or maybe as your link on some blog comments and it'll soon get picked up.

          Overall though, if you are worrying about a single link getting indexed then you probably are not using your time in the best way.  Focus on what to do to get more links, rather than worrying about the ones you get.  The payoff is far bigger.

          • For a new site, does it matter which sites I get back links from first? I.e., are the first back links more important than later ones?
