Negative SEO

[Beatbuster]

It looks like either opensiteexplorer is broken or two of our domains are being spammed via negative seo with very low quality links:
http://winter.bergleben.at is a project pretty new in development. Last time I checked we had 39 linking root domains.

Now - couple of weeks later - we have more than 800 linking root domains. Most of them very dubious ones. Problem is:

• the link anchors look correct of what we or a user would typically link to
• most of the URLs identified by OSE I cannot even find a link back to us on there

If it weren`t for the correct link anchors I would consider something wrong with OSE.
Another URL affected is www.skiinfo.de

We are very proud of our quality and organic approach to editorial journalism, but we are in a very competitive field, so I would not be surprised if someone would apply negative SEO against us. Can someone briefly look into it and tell me if they came up with the same issue?

Have you looked in Webmaster Tools for some more forensic linking info specific to your site? This can be more accurate than OSE.

[Beatbuster]

yes, in Webmaster tools I cannot find these links. however my experience is that there is often a time delay in the webmaster tools?

I thought that there was more of a delay in OSE than in webmaster tools on average, but I could be wrong. I'm sure it depends on when the next Linkscape update is for OSE.
