Is MOZ Open Site Explorer Gone?

Answer is at present ‘No‘, but in future it will be closed. Because Moz team is working on a new tool called “Link Explorer“. It’s a new version to OSE(Open Site Explorer). In this article I want to share about a few things on MOZ Update (Link Explorer).

Open Site Explorer (OSE):

Open Site Explorer is a MOZ tool used to research backlinks, discover link-building opportunities, find external links, find internal links, 301, 302, damaging links, rank impact links.

With OSE you can generate advanced reports, do spam analysis, perform link metrics, find inbound links opportunities and just discovered links.

Here is the flow, where you can see the results of the page you want to search:

1. Just enter the website url into the browser https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/
2. Type the URL of the page you want to examine in the search and enter.

3. Examine the page metrics like Domain Authority, Page Authority, Just- Discovered, and Established Links and add filters to see the inbound links to the page like nofollow, dofollow, 301, 302, external pages, internal pages. You can examine the results for the search page or you can see for sub domain and root domain too. See the below fig.
