        How do you know its not showing them all? Remember Rogerbot is a bit slower to getting around the internet but you can also use other site like Majestic SEO & ahrefs to get a good idea of what links you've got (as well as Google webmaster tools!)

          I saw in a Google Webmaster Tool showing top links root domain is 453 and Open Site Explorer is showing 90 top links root domain, So what is the difference between both of tools and who is the given right information about root domain? One thinks also is right here Google Webmaster tools showing maximum no. of indexing urls (19,582,381links) but open site explorer showing only some of indexing urls? I am so Confused about these query Please guide as soon as possible.

            Google bot crawls your site, now Google is very powerful so it can crawl lots of sites quickly

            OSE aka Rogerbot he is not as powerful as Google so it takes him a bit longer to get around and crawl sites he tries his best but can't keep up with google so it takes him a bit longer.

            So they are both correct, if you want to see all your URLS you can do some of the following safety tips!

            1. Always track any links you've created!

            2. You don't have to stick to just one! Yes you can combine multiple sites like OSE, Majestic SEO & ahrefs to create a big list of the URLS that are connected to your site.

            3 Don't Panic - URLS are not everything that you should be concerned by is you can't see a couple.

            • Why is Link Explorer showing the same domain strength for domain and sub-domain? Shouldn't it be different?
