Why am in not seeing inbound links

[DavetheExterminator]

In the link analysis of my site, it's not showing inbound links that I know we have?  Why is that?  I have verified they are still existent.

Hi Dave - each tool that you use to determine inbound links to your site is normally going to show you a different list of links. SEOmoz uses a crawler to index links in it's own index, just like Google does, and Yahoo does as well with their Site Explorer tool. The separate tools will not really ever produce the same list of links. They can be similar, but usually not the same. Usually the most important/heaviest weighted links show up across all tools, but some of the less important ones sometimes get indexed by one tool and not others.

Hi Dave,

Bandicoot is correct. However I thought I would just add 1 more thought.

If you are using Linkscape for this analysis this data set is usually a little behind in "freshness" and this could be 1 reason why you are not seeing your links, also I believe Linkscape also trys to cut out some of the cr@p so you might not see some of the lower / spammier links in here.

Although it isn't the best - Yahoo Site Explorer is pretty "fresh" and should show them pretty quickly.
