Internal Links issue in webmaster
-
we implemented our website on the basis of WordPress, then we migrate our website to PHP (YII Framework). after a while, we found out an issue around internal links which they were increasing severely. when we check our landing pages in webmaster (for example Price list), in contains 300 internal links but the reality is that there are no href tags on this page. it seems that webmaster calculate most of our links with the links of a single page and show them to us. is it natural or a mis configuration has been happened?

We don't know why these links have been made. for example in our main page all the "href"s included menu, footer and the other hrefs inside the page are calculated which are about 51 but the thing which we see in our webmaster is about 400 (Please take a look at this screen shot )
This unusual number has hunted our set and ranking and we don't know how to solve this problem

Hey jacelyn_wiren
When it comes to internal links it doesn't mean that links from content to another pages of our website. If you have related posts, sidebar widgets or Recent posts in footer those are also calculated as internal links. Its doesnt hurt your SEO until each page has 90 internal links. Better to put no-follow attribute to category and tags in sidebars. Which never hurt your SEO.

The Internal links which we mentioned in the last screenshot, where taken from MOZ. MOZ analyzes our website and we took this internal links information from link overview section of MOZ.
the example we told you that it was about internal links in our price-list page, was taken from google webmaster. based on this report that we sent to you through screenshot, you can see that there are 400 internal links on price-list page or 396 links on one of our product pages, but in reality there is no such thing and we cannot track them to manage or delete them. we do not know where are they and how to check them.

Hey jacelyn_wiren,
When you say internal links are you talking about on the Page Optimization tool and the flagging item about too many links on a page?
I had a look at your screenshot but was unsure on what this related to as its cut out the page.
If you could provide some more specific information might be able to help

On our site by mistake some wrong links were entered and google crawled them. We have fixed those links. But they still show up in Not Found Errors. Should we just mark them as fixed? Or what is the best way to deal with them?
Some parameter was not sent. So the link was read as : null/city, null/country instead cityname/city

We have 302 redirect links on our forum that point to individual posts. Should we add a rel="nofollow" to these links?
Moz is showing us that we have a HUGE amount of 302 redirects. These are coming from our community forum. Forum URL: https://www.foodbloggerpro.com/community/ Example thread URL: https://www.foodbloggerpro.com/community/viewthread/322/ Example URL that points to a specific reply: https://www.foodbloggerpro.com/community/viewreply/1582/ The above link 302 redirects to this URL: https://www.foodbloggerpro.com/community/viewthread/322/#1582 My two questions would be: Do you think we should we add rel=nofollow to the specific reply URLs? If possible, should we make those redirects 301 vs. 302? Screencast attached. nofollow_302.mp4

GWT - International Targeting
By selecting a country in the Country Targeting section of GWT what effect does this have? For example if I select UK will this boost rankings on google.co.uk and decrease them on google.com etc? If we are based in the UK but our customer base is worldwide should we not select anything?

No results with Link Analysis
So I have been working with a domain since November last year that still shows no improvement in regards to the link analysis. I am baffled because we have gotten them onto the first page on Google for a few of the keywords we are optimizing. Any help with this is greatly appreciated and I am a noob so definitely open to learning. Thanks in advance to all of you. Domain in question - www.modernportablerefrigeration.com Domain is currently on a shared server if that makes any difference. Cordially, Todd Richard admin@richfinn.org

If you add a no follow to a time sensitive link, will it get picked up as broken link 404 in WMT report?
We have a client who publishes deals that are time sensitive. Links to the deals expire and so Google's crawlers are picking them up and finding a 404 If I no follow them, will the 404's still get picked up and reported in WMT? The same question applies to SEOMoz Pro.
