      Hey all,

      I recently found an issue on the website of one of my clients, so I want to hear what could be the reason for it.

      We are working with that client since September last year and we had created around 300 links to it. However, I recently found out using Majestic SEO and Open Site Explorer that for every page there are like 3-4 links passing value...

      I checked the whole report immediately, but the thing is that all links are in place and they have relevant URLs and anchortext as wel. I am thinking about an onsite issue, which can be blocking the links  (I checked the robots.txt and the http header to see if they return any errors, but no luck).

      Any suggestions.... Any help is greatly appreciated 🙂

      Best Regards

        Were all the links from the same source / or contact? Message me the address if you'd like a conclusive assessment - it's a bit hard with simply guessing.

            Well no actually the links come from various places - article directories, guest posts and other related websites.

              Have you got Google Webmaster Tools access to this site? If you do you would just export all the backlinks from there and truly find out if they are visible to google or not.

                Those links were added from various sources during the linkbuilding campaign we issued. To sum up, the majority of those links come from blogs and article directories (only the best ones). We do pretty the same for most of our clients, but we do not have such issues.

                  Well I do not have access, but I did manual check on all the URLs in Google to see if they are all indexed and they all appear to be...

                      You can't rely on SEOMoz and Majestic to give you Google data as these two use their own crawling. My warmest recommendation would be to gain access to GWT and learn about what Google knows about your links.
