Is there Page Link Counter software?
-
Hi,
I receive more than 100 links error and when i count the links, it is not even 100. I'd like to know how 100 links are counted. I was wondering if anyone can suggest me a tool and method that can help me to count links.
Thank you

Thank you everyone and Matt, I agree Moz should have an option to click on that error 'ignore' or 'fixed' so it doesn't worry us.

Easy - View the page source:
- in Chrome or firefox : right click then select "View page source"
- In Internet explorer : Download Chrome, then... only kidding - Right-click then select "View Source"
See how many times the string href appears in the text - those are the links. The quickest way is often to cut and paste the source in to something like word then do a search and replace. It'll tell you how many it removed.
However - don't focus too much on that "error". It is absolutely fine to have more than 100 links on a page - as long as they are all needed. Modern navigation often has more than this and does it in a way that is usable and search friendly. Personally I think that Moz.com tool should be updated to stop so many people worrying about this.
The problem used to be that Google would stop following them after 100, but that is no longer the case. It can sometimes be an issue in that it creates a lot of code that adds to download times, but that is a tenuous link really.

Screaming Frog differentiates this with Outlinks (onpage links pointing to another resource on your site) and External Outlinks (onpage links pointing to another domain).
Does that help?

I think Screaming frog shows backlinks and internal links but not onpage links. My questions is for '' Over 100Links Error' Google recommends to have less than 100 links and on Moz reports, this comes up as an error. More info is here: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/how-many-links-per-page/
I need to know how many links i actually have the on the page so i can remove them.

Hi Sida,
Are you talking about backlinks? If so just use opensite explorer, Majestic SEO or Ahrefs. Or just good old Google Webmaster Tools (links to your site). If you are talking about website links, you can use internal link analysis software like Xenu link sleuth.

Aside from using the tools here you can use screaming frog spider SEO it will analyze 500 pages for free
Internet marketing ninjas also has some fantastic tools at InternetmarketingNinjas.com/tools scan site with the first tool and you can have a check for up to 1000 pages

Unsolved Should I combine pages?
Hi, Im not sure of the correct route to take here... We are a training provider and I manage the website. The main course offered is the transport manager CPC. Currently, I have a "catch all" landing page which links to each different course option: Landing page > Classroom Online Self study Distance learning The main keyword revolves around "transport manager cpc" I want searchers to land on the online page is they search "online transport manager CPC" for example but I think its confusing Google. I'm wondering if I should de-index the store pages (although some perform very well) and increase the content on the main landing page to rank for every related keyword on that page. Initially, I wanted to devalue the landing page in favor of the store pages but I'm unsure if that's the right way to go. I've stripped out the bulk of the keywords and content and shifted it to each individual page. but as above, Im now unsure if that's the right route to take. Any help would be greatly appreciated 👍 Thanks

Why are http and https pages showing different domain/page authorities?
My website www.aquatell.com was recently moved to the Shopify platform. We chose to use the http domain, because we didn't want to change too much, too quickly by moving to https. Only our shopping cart is using https protocol. We noticed however, that https versions of our non-cart pages were being indexed, so we created canonical tags to point the https version of a page to the http version. What's got me puzzled though, is when I use open site explorer to look at domain/page authority values, I get different scores for the http vs. https version. And the https version is always better. Example: http://www.aquatell.com DA = 21 and https://www.aquatell.com DA = 27. Can somebody please help me make sense of this? Thanks,

Link in H1 tag?
Hi guys, We're working through a redesign of our product page and are considering the following: http://screencast.com/t/NBSsDGA9vgS3 Currently the product name (including the brand name - Arc'teryx) in this case is included in the H1 and none of the title is linked. You can see this here: http://www.evo.com/synthetic-jackets/arcteryx-atom-lt-hoodie-womens.aspx The firm we're working with is proposing keeping the entire title in the H1 but linking the brand name to the entire brand assortment. My concern is that the brand name is a critical part of the product title and should be text (not a link). Any suggestions? Thanks!

What to do about pages I have deleted?
I have been working through the dead links on my page and recreating the page with new content for those pages that it still makes sense to have on the site. But I have a few that were just changes of the title, spelling mistakes or other ways of saying the same thing In other words I created a page called "areas of the UK we cover" but decided to change it to "areas covered" However, I must have created links to this page and now it is a dead link with a page authority of 19 I think it would be spammy to have two pages, one called "areas covered" and the other called "areas of the UK we cover. It's not a disallow in Robots.txt because the page does not exist Please note I do not have access to the header to add code for a 301 redirect. I'm still using webs.com but not for new sites. I also have a page called singing telegrams london, that I changed from singagrams london. These are two words for the same thing but they are two very different keywords would it be ok to recreate this page and create content for singagrams london. Help is much appreciated

Internal Linking
If i link page A to page B then link page B back to page A would this have less effect than linking page A to page B only? Also are their any good resources for learning internal linking best practise? Thanks in advance.

Please review page for on page SEO
I'm working on an adult dating site review blog and am hoping to build links to the category pages. It's a wordpress blog so the posts are categorised by topics. However can you tell me if there is enough content on the page for google to identify what the page is about? The problem is that the content of each category pages is pulled from the posts. What I think is needed is some static text on the page 2-300 words that use the keyword. Here's an example of a page targeting the keywords 'online dating'. http://www.top-10-dating-reviews.com/category/online-dating/

Relative links
Hi, How much of an SEO issue is it to have relative links vs. fully written out links, like http://www.seolinkquestion.com/my-silly-question ? If I have a site that uses relative links, should I change them all? Thanks...Mike
