A little more info please. What site, what numbers were shown etc. What is this other tool and is it wrong/right? As far as I know the spider is fine, it updates Page Info when trades are re-spidered and also at about the rate of 4-5k pages a day.

If you have a little something to go on other then 'its broken' I'll have it looked into.

The tool linkcounter.submitexpress.com

crazyfilth.com - 28 here - 44 tool
dailybabeblog.com - 55 here - 82 tool

It must be the update process because some links are checked corectly and some show less links. I have found some major differencies on some site, from 100 link too 300 links, i can't remember which ones, sorry.

Hope it helps

Thanks

I'm still not sure what to say, I checked that tool you linked up above, and get this for hotfootdivas.com.

Outgoing Links: 81 - Unique Outgoing Links: 72

Linkspun totals:

81 outbound.

I also checked about 20 of them and I see no differences.

Can we exclude nofollow links from this counter? It's confusing, because for example my blogs have 2-3 sponsor links per post that are nofollow. That's some 60-150 outgoing links right there.

Google itself even recommends nofollowing all sponsored links.

The value of nofollow has recently been under much scrutiny and it's almost impossible to find 2 people who think the same on it. Excluding nofollow is not really an option. If it's included people can decide on their own at that point if it matters. Google themselves have backpeddled and made changes to how nofollow works/acts.

Truth of the matter is no matter what, those are outgoing links on your site. Although a link is nofollowed, it still counts as an outbound link, it just doesn't pass link juice through to it. Never has it been reported that it 'saves' that link power for the other links, it just does not pass it on.

So for all intensive purposes, those links are still outbound links, they just have no weight passed to them. They DO still eat away juice from the site.\

I would say you'd be better off with something like this.

http://blairwilliams.com/pretty-link <--- 301 link redirect set up, so you could have www.myblogdomain.com/paysitename as a link that redirects to the sponsor.
