How can I use Open Site Explorer to Identify why my own URL's are appearing as inbound links

[Artfx]

I'm a new member of Moz, and am trying to understand why I am seeing my sites URL's in my Inbound Link results in Open Site Explorer. There are quite a few, and they are all product category URL's that are generated by my stores database. This is not happening with .html URL's. Any thoughts?

Silly question but are the urls of the product category and the urtl that you set in Open Site Explorer on the same domain?

by default the inbound links page filter is:

Show all links from all pages to this page and show links ungrouped

Change the filter so that is :

Show all links from only external pages to this page and show links ungroupedShow linking pages across

This will give you all external links to that page, If you want all external links to you website change it to:

Show all links from only external pages to pages on this root domain and show links ungroupedShow linking pages across

Hopefully that will fix it for you

Thanks! I'm a newbie, and should know better than to explore a new tool after a long day at work!
