Q: I did a link-popularity search on
the domain "mydomain.com". And this domain gets 214 hits. However,
when I checked on the links, I couldn't find the link to mydomain.com. Why?
A: Search engines indexes web page periodically. When search engine bot
visited some pages last time, there must be a link to "mydomain.com"
included. But due to some reason, the webmaster removed this link recently,
so that you can't find link to "mydomain.com" in this page today,
although search engine still reported this page.
Q: How to understand the meaning of each column in "site window"
and "link window"?
A: In multiple site link popularity mode, "Hits" column of "site
window" is the number of found web pages who linked to this site, duplicate
records returned by multiple search engines have been skipped during calculation
process. "Hits" column of "link window" is the number
of sites who has been linked by found webpage address (first column). Other
every column of "link window" means whether this webpage address
has link pointed to correspondent site or not.
In single site link popularity mode, "Hits" column of "site
window" is the number of search engine query result records, duplicate
records returned by multiple search engines have not been skipped during
calculation process. "Hits" column of "link window"
is the number of search engines who includes found webpage address (first
column) within its query result. Other every column of "link window"
means the ranking of this webpage address within search engine query result.
Q: Why did I get different search result after started same project two
times?
A: In theory, you should get same result every time. It seems that your
project halted before all links has been found out. This most reason of
this problem is unstable search engine query result: As our research, query
results of some search engines are variable sometimes. Under worse condition,
search engine will reset your connection or reply your query with empty
page. LinkSurvey can do nothing to solve this kind of search engine problem
perfectly. But you may do something to deal with it: 1) In LinkSurvey configuration
box, increase "Max Retry" value to 3 or bigger. 2) When project
stopped automatically, press "Start" button (Not "restart"
button") again to see whether there are still some links left to be
found.
Q: I just subscribe to daily expired domain lists and need a software
that can tell me the link popularity of thousands of domains at once. So
is it possible to import domains from a .txt file with LinkSurvey?
A: IMHO, this kind of task is not fit for LinkSurvey. By design, LinkSurvey
should be used to find out every inbound link to a website, so that it will
take long time to figure out the total number of all inbound links. If you
just need to know the total number of links to evaluate the value of some
deleted domains, you may try our another software product DomainInspect
instead, which can be found at here.
Q: Is there a way of configuring LinkSurvey so as to increase the
number of results reported of websites linking to my domain. Currently it
returns a maximum of 1000 links.
A: There are two points which may cause the limitation of search results
returned:
1) Limited by LinkSurvey: Choose "Project Property" from the main
menu when your project is opened, then increase the number of "search
engine search depth" or disable this option, this will make LinkSurvey
return more search result with every search engine.
2) Limited by Search Engine: Some search engines, for example Google, only
return limited number of search result for every query to avoid spamming.
This is determined by search engine itself, which can not be changed by
LinkSurvey.
