      Hi,

      On a Google SERP, when i activate the MOZ toolbar one of the sites says it has 1,258 links / 667 RDs. But when I open this same site up in OSE I get 3 inbound links (see attch). What's going on?

        Hi there! Sam from Moz's Help Team here!

        This could simply be a case where that example you've linked has the results filtered to 'this page' as opposed to 'this root domain' or 'this subdomain'. If instead you filter by root domain, you should see a far higher number of links populate in OSE.

        If you're still seeing strange results, it would be great if you could pop an email over to help@moz.com so we can take a deeper dive into this:).
