      My SEOmoz analysis that my site contains neither external or internal lnks.

      I have used other tools and they have all seen the internal and external links on the pages. There aren't many but they are there.

      Why isn't SEOmoz seeing them?

        How long has your site been live? It could be a delay in pages/site going live and appearing in SEOmoz index. What's the URL? That might help work out the issue.

          Hi Martin,

          Thanks for the reply.

          The site has been live for a few weeks so I think its my stupidity. The URL is:

          www.sicpa-security-solutions.asia

          Although I think that the root for the site is actually with no www. I set up SEOmoz for the URL with the www (as a a subdomain, I think) so I'm wondering whether that's the issue and I need to set up another campaign with the actual root directory this time.

          Yes, I really am that thick and not often let out unattended!

            I just plugged in your URL into OpenSiteExplorer and it seems it's not in the SEOmoz index yet. Info from OSE says:

            Mozscape crawls the web constantly, but we update the index only once every 30-40 days. Thus, pages and links created since the last index update won't be available until we've seen them. A typical timeline for getting a page/site included in Mozscape is 45-60 days.

            You could probably speed up inclusion by creating some good solid backlinks to your site, but otherwise it's just a patience game - it will eventually get in, but shouldn't stop you from starting off your campaign's activities. 🙂

              Hi Martin,

              Thanks or that.

              The problem with the web is that we now all have the patience of a gnat. Backlinks it is.

              Cheers,

              Iain
