Internal link structure, find out if there are any internal links to this page
-
When i use this url in open site explorer it says that there are no internal links:
http://goo.gl/d2s6tJ
Page Authority is also 1, it should be higher of there are any internal links to it right?But i am very sure there are links to this url on my website. For example on this URL:
http://goo.gl/ucixRHHow certain can i be of this? Because if i can be very certain, than we have a internal linkstructure problem on our entire site i believe.

Wilco,
If they crawled that page, the PA should be correct. Based on what I see external of Moz, it is.

I think the reason why MOZ is not getting the Page Authority right it's because MOZ did not crawl our entire site.
I'm getting a warning to upgrade my account because the crawl limit of 50.000 pages has reached.
Does Moz crawl/index pages with NOINDEX in meta?
In google we have 54.000 pages indexed. -
There is only one and there would be no increase in PA (which is not a Google metric but a Moz metric). Google is much later than other software in showing the links in GWMT. As to the PA it is as I said earlier, you have one link from a page with low PA and over 200 links. There is no way that is worth increasing the PA to 2. Sorry, just a reality. As you get more links and maybe some external ones and time, etc. the PA should increase. Hang in there.

indeed, it is very odd. Even if Screaming Frog says there are links, it looks like google does'nt recognize them. There are many more links to that particular page.. And i does'nt get PA.
The problem is that this example is not the only problem, there are many many pages that do not get any PA. These pages have many internal links too.I can't figure why google does'nt recognize there links and give a PA.

I used the Moz tool also and at first I showed one internal link and posted that and then, when I came back it wasn't showing. It may have been picking up the G translate??. It does show in ScreamingFrog and, I used your site search went to the page with the link to the product page and it obviously worked. In SF it showed the urls as 200 so no problem there.
I am not sure why it would not show on the Moz tools. I know some links won't show in OSE, but I have never had an occurrence like this.
You do have an internal link, if you are to increase your PA you need to get more links to the page. I caution you about the overuse of internal links. I realize there are two schools on quantity: some say, where it used to be 100 as a limit now many more are acceptable. Personally, I would not want pages with hundreds of internal links.If you go to GWMT, and click on Search Traffic, you will see internal links. Click that and you will be able to look at individual URLs. That might assist you even more.
LMK if that works or you need further assistance.

Hello Robert,
I used the MOZbar before and saw the orange highlights.
But when i view the attributes and link tabs in MOZbar i can't see an incoming internal link. Attached you'll find an screenshot of my MOZbar view. Maybe i miss something?Also, i'm very sure there should be a lot of incoming links to the http://goo.gl/d2s6tJ url.

Wilco,
Your page http://www.badkamerxxl.nl/merken/D links to /f/merk-damixa. Using the Moz tool, if you are on the referring page, I used the link finding tool (pen with orange for internal links) and it is an internal link. If you click it you land on the appropriate url.
Hope that helps you out, but if you want a clear picture of link structure, you could always use Screaming Frog. (The link to that page shows in screaming frog and shows over two hundred links away from the page linking to it.)
Robert
PS With one internal link from a page with a huge amount of links on it, you will not necessarily have a PA greater than one. Each link on the linking page divides the value of the page.

#Page Jump link sharing
Hi I'm managing an in-house link building campaign in order to help in our key search term 'Location Holidays'. We were historically number 1 for this term until a recent re-design in May where our web design agency butchered our SEO. All of the main issued fixed, we're now fluctuating between 3rd & 4th on a daily basis. I'm putting together a social share comp to promote through the press in order to boost our backlink profile. We're nesting the competition within the body of the page we want to improve the rankings for. I will be including a #page jump link to quickly access it as it will be further down the page. My question is that if we get press to link to http://holidaycompany.com/destination/#comp will http://holidaycompany.com/destination/ receive the link juice or will http://holidaycompany.com/destination/#comp be looked upon as a whole new page? Thanks in advance!

Too many links? Do links to named anchors count (ie page#nameanchor)?
Hi, I have an internal search results page that contains approx 200 links in total. This links to approx 50 pages. Each result listing contains a link to the page in the format /page.html and also has 3 more links (for each listing) to named anchors within the page. eg /page.html#section1, /page.html#section2, /page.html#section3 etc. Should i remove the named anchors to keep my links per page under the Seomoz suggested max of 100? Will it impact crawl-ability or link juice being passed? Thanks in advance for your response.

Adding parameters in URLs and linking to a page
Hi, Here's a fairly technical question: We would like to implement badge feature where linking websites using a badge would use urls such as: domain.com/page?state=texas&city=houston domain.com/page?state=neveda&city=lasvegas Important note: the parameter will change the information and layout of the page: domain.com/page Would those 2 urls above along with their extra parameters be considered the same page as domain.com/page by google's crawler? We're considering adding the parameter "state" and "city" to Google WMT url parameter tool to tel them who to handle those parameters. Any feedback or comments is appreciated! Thanks in advance.

2 links on home page to each category page ..... is page rank being watered down?
I am working on a site that has a home page containing 2 links to each category page. One of the links is a text link and one link is an image link. I think I'm right in thinking that Google will only pay attention to the anchor text/alt text of the first link that it spiders with the anchor text/alt text of the second being ignored. This is not my question however. My question is about the page rank that is passed to each category page..... Because of the double links on the home page, my reckoning is that PR is being divided up twice as many times as necessary. Am I also right in thinking that if Google ignore the 2nd identical link on a page only one lot of this divided up PR will be passed to each category page rather than 2 lots ..... hence horribly watering down the 'link juice' that is being passed to each category page?? Please help me win this argument with a developer and improve the ranking potential of the category pages on the site 🙂

Internal Links on eCommerce sites
I have been working on an eCommerce site; www.pretavoir.co.uk over the past year. Improvements in SERPs have been good with many top three positions. However, there are other important keywords of similar difficulty which refuse to behave in a similar way.... The site is PR4 and has a homepage PA 52. The homepage includes links to internal brand pages eg Prada, Gucci etc. Q Would it be worthwhile creating footer anchor text with eaxct text eg Prada sunglasses, Gucci Sunglasses?? Thanks

No-follow links on advertising pages
Hi I run a job board that enables employers to post job vacancies and information about their organisations. These are 'paid for' pages (advertising) on our site. These link out to their own websites. My question is, would it be better for these links out to their sites to be no-follow? From my site's perspective, I cannot necessarily dictate the quality of their websites (although the majority are leading firms) as I would in article and feature content, where we do happily link out and refer to other quality sites with information that gives readers further information. I know that many large job boards do this where they run listings of feeds from other sites, but should we also do this at the page level where the link out is effectively paid for. What would be the pros and cons if I do or if I don't use no-follow? I hope this makes sense and look forward to some replies. Many thanks

Too Many On-Page Links
Hello. My Seomoz report this week tells me that I have about 500 pages with Too Many On-Page Links One of the examples is this one: https://www.theprinterdepo.com/hp-9000mfp-refurbished-printer (104 links) If you check, all our products have a RELATED products section and in some of them the related products can be UP to 40 Products. I wonder how can I solve this. I thought that putting nofollow on the links of the related products might fix all of these warnings? Putting NOFOLLOW does not affect SEO?
