About link again

[NadiaFL]

I checked all links to my site (not too many at all)

http://oasisoftheseasallureoftheseas.com/

and discovered that very important link – from my supplier,
Royal Caribbean International is not listed at all.

Some links with ‘nofollow’ tags show up but not this one.

RCI source here

http://www.royalcaribbean.com/customersupport/travelagent/processLocate.do?selectedCountry=USA&taname=&city=&state=&zip=34994&.x=22&.y=6

Any ideas?

Open Site Explorer crawls a lot of the web but some pages do get missed - normally because they're very minor in the grand scheme of things.

Unfortunately this also happens at Google at it looks like the page that links to you isn't in Google's index. Were I you I would try and build some links to that supplier's page so that Google can index your link.

Hope that helps.

Hi there,

I checked it out and I don't see your site linked to from the RCI page. It's possible that if they do link to you, it's something generated from a search string, which is often not indexed by us so the link may not have been found.

Our Crawler (Roger) is real good about finding the deep pages as long as there is a thread to them. If there are no links or it needs some sort of Java, it probably won't be found, sadly.

You may want to see if you can arrange to have them put a link on a static page.

I hope that helps.

Thanks,

Joel

Thank you Ben and Joel! I appreciate your help!

Joel, please clarify if all links from static pages produce links to my web site. How to identify if profile page generate a real libk to my web site?

Hi there,

The links that are on pages that don't require any java and aren't generated dynamically are easier to crawl and will reflect on your site.

If you haven't already, I recommend to read through the Open Site Explorer FAQ: http://www.seomoz.org/help/open-site-explorer-faq

Thanks,

Joel.
