Fixing the Too Many On-Page Links
-
In our campaign I see that it reported that some of our pages have too many on-page links. But I think most of the links that was seen by MozBot is related to our images. There are a lot of images in our site and at the same time we support 11 languages which adds additional links
One of the pages that have a lot of links is www.florahospitality.com/dining.aspx
What can you <a></a>suggest to fix this?
Thanks. <a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a><a></a>

IE9

btw Alan, may I know what browser are you using to see the website? because we are not encountering that freezing and scroll problem.
-
Yes but they actualy have different pages,
http://www.florahospitality.com/nl/dining.aspxhttp://www.florahospitality.com/fr/dining.aspxhttp://www.florahospitality.com/it/dining.aspxhttp://www.florahospitality.com/ko/dining.aspxhttp://www.florahospitality.com/jp/dining.aspxCMSmakes things esiser to get started, but always lead to workarounds. if you want perfection you need to create a bespoke website i am afraid.

Actually it works the same way as we are using a cms (umbraco). Umbraco handles the translation but in their setup it is a different document hence needing for a link to direct to other language.

Thats a lot better, its actualy quite nice layout. But when view all is selected, it keeps freezing and is hard to scroll.
I see you have many languages and this is the problem. I see the site is made from asp.net, why did you not use the globalizatuion feature of ASP.net, it would show a language depending on the users settings on the computer, rather then have several versions, this would make life easier in development and solve your problem of havaing a link to every version.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa478974.aspxThe idea is to have all your text stored in resource files, one for each lingo, depending on windows settings you pull you content from a different rsource file.

Hi Alan,
It is working now. We just deployed some updates this morning that's why there was a little downtime.

Hi Ryan,

I must agree with Ryan here, the site looks like its missing a css file or somthing, they layout is non-existent. I think you havve more pressing concerns that link count

The link you are sharing does not appear very well at all. I have looked at the site from two different computers using a FF and Chrome browser. The page is not user friendly at all and I suggest you take a closer look at the web design itself.
With that said, generally speaking you want to offer links to your most important pages, and to pages your users will likely want to see. Presenting over 100 links on a page is often not very friendly as there are too many options. It really depends on HOW you present the links. Some sites can offer 200 links on a page and present them in such a manner as to be helpful, but that is not usually the case.
In your case, please take a look at how the site appears in FF and Chrome, fix it, then better feedback can be offered.

Listing of all Google Indexed Pages
I started managing a site that has about 391,000 indexed pages. I want to get to the bottom of why there are so many in preparation for a ecommerce Migration and improving SEO. Anyone know of a tool? Many tools I have came across can only take 100 at a time. I would love to get them in excel or a database. I look forward to the suggestions.

In my crawl diagnostics, there are links to duplicate content. How can I track down where these links originated in?
How can I find out how SEOMOz found these links to begin with? That would help fix the issue. Where's the source page where the link was first encountered listed at?

Current on-page best practices
Given all the recent talk about over optimization, when was the last time SEOMoz updated the on-page report card tool? Rand wrote an excellent piece on Perfect On-Page Optimization (which is great, and thanks) in summer 2009. Is that still best practice 3 years later (and post-Penguin/Panda)? If not, has the SEOMoz on-page report card tool been updated to reflect current thinking for on-page best-practices? I know the higher level concept is "write for humans, not for bots" but if you can do both (and not create an unreadable seo-frankenpage) then why not? Does getting an "A" grade wreak of over optimization now? Should I use the key phrase at the start of the title, h1, and strong (or bold) elements on a page? Should have an image with file name and alt text equal to (or containing at the start) the key phrase?

Total number of links in OSE not clear to me.
I have compared 3 sites in open site explorer. The total # of links in the subdomain metrics report for one of the urls is 46,787. Where is that number coming from? There's 125 total external followed links and 132 total external links. I cannot see the number for internal links, but I'm sure it isn't 40000+. So 46,787 is the result of the addition of what? Thanks a lot for your help, and sorry for this newbie question 🙂

Why is the crawler following form action links?
I have an issue with one of my sites where the SEOMoz crawler is following some form action links. It is my understanding that the crawler will ignore these links. Why would it not be ignoring them in certain cases. If you need more detail, please ask. Thanks.

Page Rank and offline sites
I have a domain with PR6 according to the Historical Pagerank Checker. But that last PR was calculated 2 years ago. I brought the site back online a few days ago and have checked that many/most of the backlinks are still valid. It is now in the Google index but the Historical Pagerank Checker shows PR0. Will it get back its previous rank or something close to it? How long will it take?
