      OK  - We are about to start the process of removing some bad / spammy links.

      Looking at OSE and WMT they both have different links? Some are the same but alot are different?

      Which tool would you pay more attention too?

      Or

      Would you merge the 2 documents together?

      Thanks,

      Scott

        Hi,

        I would definately go for merging both of them together. Allthough WMT recently  significantly increased the number of backlinks shown, any extra information you can gather is great. I guess together they provide a pretty good overview of your backlink profile.

        Btw, it's ofcourse very interesting how many of the links reported in WMT and OSE overlap, and how many are unique for each one. So if you're going for option 3, please share some of the results with us!

        Greets,
