      I would like to know, how do I get a report with the TOTAL amount of my external followed links.When I look on "Link Metric" it shows me:  External Followed Links 2,951

      But when I looked on Inbound links (only follow / only external), it shows me only 645. Why is that and how do I get the total from 2.951?

      Thanks

        Hi Niall,

        Thanks for reaching out! I think I have an answer for you! 🙂

        OSE only displays 25 links for each root domain. So if you you have 2,951 links but 300 of them are from one domain, it will only show 25 of them. That should help explain the discrepancy you're seeing. 🙂

        I hope this helps! If you have any more specific questions about a particular campaign, please don't hesitate to email help@moz.com!

        Cheers,

        Erin
