Internal followed links only 5
-
Dear members,
As I understand the importancy of Internal Followed Links I want to increase them for www.ruijters.nl. What I do not understand that Open Site Explorer only counts 5 Internal Followed Links.
These 5 Internal Followed Links must be the hypelinked images on the homepage? But the website in overall definately has more than 5?
Any members who van help me out to fix this problem, so www.ruijters.nl can enjopy his linkjuice?
Best Regards,
Alain Nijholt

"Also any reason you need such accurate information? I mean't WMT numbers should be good enough." I need this information to be sure of a good internal link structure and linkjuice purpose.

William,
Thanks for the url. I want to know the Internal Followed Links and not the Inbound. But to "clear the air" I have put a printscreen. Stange is is this analysis the number 5 for Ruijters compared to the competitors.
What do you think?

Then click on your domain.
I'm still not exactly sure what you are asking for because if you do an "Inbound Internal Link" on OSE, it will still show your URL as the Inbound link to YOUR domain. Isn't that what you want? Followed links from your internal pages? If that is the case OSE should do it for you.
Also any reason you need such accurate information? I mean't WMT numbers should be good enough.

William,
Thanks, I also think WMT is more accurate. Unfortunately I cannot find any information about internal links when analyzing http://www.ruijters.nl with majesticseo and ahrefs.
Do you know where to look?
Thanks

213 would be more correct. Google WMT just has more power to crawl every inch of your site. WMT also shows more accurate number of links as well. You can try other sites that analyzes backlinks like majesticseo and ahrefs.
SEOmoz has confirmed they don't waste time crawling every page on the web. A employee from SEOmoz replied to a question earlier this month and stated it is sole due to resources and makes it easier on the user to view links without having so many duplicate links from the same domain, which would be your own domain.

William,
Thanks but this does not answer my question. I am referring to Internal Followed Links not the Inbound External Links.
According to Google's Webmaster Tool http://www.ruijters.nl has 213 Internal Links.
Open Site Explorer only counts 5 Internal Followed Links, why do Google Webmaster Tool and Open Site Explorer do not match?
Which number is valid? 5 or 213?
Anybody?

I think you need to change the settings when you search your site. Please look at the screenshot below. I am seeing over 1,000 internal links to your domain.

Should we Nofollow Social Links?
I've been asked the question of whether if we should nofollow all of our social links, would this be a wise thing to do? I'm not exactly getting a clear answer from search results and thought you guys would be best to ask 🙂 Thanks in advance.

Can I redirect a link even if the link is still on the site
Hi Folks, I've got a client who has a duplicate content because they actually create duplicate content and store the same piece of content in 2 different places. When they generate this duplicate content, it creates a 2nd link on the site going to the duplicate content. Now they want the 2nd link to always redirect to the first link, but for architecture reasons, they can't remove the 2nd link from the site navigation. We can't use rel-canonical because they don't want visitors going to that 2nd page. Here is my question: Are there any adverse SEO implications to maintaining a link on a site that always redirects to a different page? I've already gone down the road of "don't deliberately create duplicate content" with the client. They've heard me, but won't change. So, what are your thoughts? Thanks!

Optimizing internal links or over-optimizing?
For a while I hated the look of the internal links page of Google Web Master Tools account for a certain site. With a total of 120+K pages, the top internal link was the one pointing to "FAQ". With around 1M links. That was due to the fact, on every single page, both the header and the footer where presenting 5 links to the most popular questions. The traffic of those FAQ pages is non-existent, the anchor text is not SEO interesting, and theoretically 1M useless internal links is detrimental for page juice flow. So I removed them. Replacing the anchor with javascript to keep the functionality. I actually left only 1 “pure” link to the FAQ page in the footer (site wide). And overnight, the internal links page of that GWT account disappeared. Blank, no links. Now... Mhhh... I feel like... Ops! Yes I am getting paranoid at the idea the sudden disappearance of 1M internal links was not appreciated by google bot. Anyone had similar experience? Could this be seen by google bot as over-optimizing and be penalized? Did I possibly triggered a manual review of the website removing 1M internal links? I remember Matt Cutts saying adding or removing 1M pages (pages) would trigger a flag at google spam team and lead to a manual review, but 1M internal links? Any idea?

Will Google Recrawl an Indexed URL Which is No Longer Internally Linked?
We accidentally introduced Google to our incomplete site. The end result: thousands of pages indexed which return nothing but a "Sorry, no results" page. I know there are many ways to go about this, but the sheer number of pages makes it frustrating. Ideally, in the interim, I'd love to 404 the offending pages and allow Google to recrawl them, realize they're dead, and begin removing them from the index. Unfortunately, we've removed the initial internal links that lead to this premature indexation from our site. So my question is, will Google revisit these pages based on their own records (as in, this page is indexed, let's go check it out again!), or will they only revisit them by following along a current site structure? We are signed up with WMT if that helps.

Tool to search relative vs absolute internal links
I'm preparing for a site migration from a .co.uk to a .com and I want to ensure all internal links are updated to point to the new primary domain. What tool can I use to check internal links as some are relative and others are absolute so I need to update them all to relative.

Should I noindex, follow categories?
Hey Everyone, A simple question (hopefully). Should I check or uncheck the noindex, follow setting for categories on our site? We've got about 5-6 but they aren't anything that people should know or would help in SEO. For example, one category is "featured content" and another is "what's happening." Checking them dictate where a post goes on the site. I'm pretty sure it should be checked, but I wanted to check with the experts first 🙂 http://d.pr/i/jtrc

Internal file extension canonicalization
Ok no doubt this is straightforward, however seem to be finding to hard to find a simple answer; our websites' internal pages have the extension .html. Trying to the navigate to that internal url without the .html extension results in a 404. The question is; should a 401 be used to direct to the extension-less url to future proof? and should internal links direct to the extension-less url for the same reason? Hopefully that makes sense and apologies for what I believe is a straightforward answer;
