      I have built links to my site this past month that I know are live and in place and some do follow and some no follow ...

      Are the no follow links just not going to show up in my site explorer data ?

      And the others - why would they not be showing up yet ?

      SeoMoz updated thier link data aug 1st , my site has been crawled since then ,

      but this new work I have done for link building have not shown up - None of them ?

      Its like I did not do any work ?

      how long could it take for them to show up and affect my site trust ect ?

      Also is there anything I vould be doing to speed the process up of having the new links found ?

        Hi! The last data update is showing link information from crawls in Mid-May to Mid-July, with more details available at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/august-mozscape-update. Have you looked in Google Webmaster Tools and Bing Webmaster Center for your incoming links and see if they've shown up there yet? Google and Bing both have bigger server farms than we do, and can show you the information a bit faster.

          O.K.

          I logged into google webmaster and found 32 linking domains in there.

          I am a new user to Seomoz and am just trying to get things clear.

          My website rankings have improved,

          I am doing some tedious link building and am trying to figure out how much work (links) i am doing is helping my sites actual rankings.

          I need to know what to tell my seo clients and need to show results on these reports

          my report on here shows 9 linking domains

          Google webmaster shows 32 linking domains

          and I know I have built links that are live that are not even showing up in Google webmaster account.

          I need to understand the time frame so I can explain to my clients when i can show results of my workks effect on website score/links/domain trust ect.

          If  Why are some links not showing in Google ?

          Do they just not show you all of them ?

          Why are at least the ones in My webmaster account not showing on my Seomoz reports

          Also i read somewhere that when you build a new link you should ping it so it shows up faster ? Have you heard this ? Does it help ?

          I have to do a report for a client that does not show any improvement at all knowing i have bulit at least 70 new links back to thier site ... Im a little frustrated and don't want to lose the client.

          I was hoping to be able to send a professional looking report not just aa excell file of link addresses.

          Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

          Thank you in advance !

          Joe

            Google makes no promises that it will show you all of the links that it knows about, and also makes no promises that the links that it shows count for anything. They have publicly admitted they do not count links from UpDowner, for example, to the relief of many webmasters.

            At the beginning of your response, you state your website rankings have improved. That is one report you can show the client. Other things to look at for your client are their traffic and how that has changed -- have those links given the client any referral traffic? has the client's organic traffic increased on keywords you've been targeting? has your client made more conversions? Page and Domain authority are nice, but they don't pay the client's mortgage. Find things that help show to the client what you have done is my suggestion.
