Why does Google Webmaster Tools report I have inbound links from over 120 different domains and OSE reports I have 7
Hi Ken Google is much larger than us so they will always show more data. Also when checking your linking root domains, make sure you are filtering for all 3 metrics for page, sub-domain, and root-domain. We basically index about 35% of what Google can. A lot of people recommend using multiple backlink tools to obtain a full profile. This has come up many times in the Q&A before so you should check out some of the answers there which might help: http://moz.com/community/q/discrepancy-between-ose-internal-links-and-webmaster-tools http://moz.com/community/q/seomoz-not-showing-latest-backlinks http://moz.com/community/q/why-is-there-such-a-big-discrepancy-between-ose-and-gwt-regarding-backlinks http://moz.com/community/q/why-does-opensiteexplorer-tell-me-i-have-292-linking-domains-and-google-webmasteer-tools-says-528 Hope this helps!
