Crawl Results

[sherohass]

How fresh is SEOMOZ crawl results ?.

On my report for today I can see that my website ranking for several keywords run manually and individually on Google, Yahoo and bing to be better than the actual SEOMOZ report.

Also have been noticing that Back link count on SEOMOZ report to be significantly less than counted with other sites and software.Can someone advise me on this ?

SEOmoz rankings are updated weekly, I believe every Thursday.  It's possible that you are getting skewed results when doing manual searches due to search personalization.  I would attribute the difference in results to either one of these issues.

As for the back link count being less than other sites it's best to consider Open Site Explorer as only one source of data for building your back link profile.  To get a better picture of your full back link profile you should also pull your links from Webmaster tools, Majestic SEO, and aHrefs if possible.  This will give you a fairly comprehensive look at your link profile.

Hi James,

Thank you for your answer.

The Keywords I am searching for individually are same keywords I input on my SEOMOZ Campaign.

As far as back links Majestic seo is one of the Three that I have used and they show a count 8000 more than SEOMOZ !

There are a couple of different components here. The back link count is updated every 2-4 weeks, when Mozscape is updated. We have our own crawler, just as other sites have their own crawlers, so we'll all have different numbers depending on how many URLs we've crawled that cycle.
