Webmaster internal links issue
-
Hi All,
In webmaster > Internal links
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/internal-links?hl=en&siteUrl=
I get counts as in the image
is this logical and ok or should i work on finding why so many links and reduce them?
Thanks
Martin

yes, this could be related to the footer. though if you have over 500k pages indexed I assume you do have duplicate content issues anyway.

| Total links |
| /blog/top-select-9le-iphone-5 | 234,480 |When i check i get 234,480 as count of found places. I guess we had a footer 2 months back which holds 50+ links always on top viewed posts could be thats the reason
Webmaster has not updated yet but is there some other way i can check this?

check your analytics if these category pages bring any traffic. probably you don't want to block them via robots if they reffer traffic. these category urls don't look too bad. i guess your duplication issues are somewhere else. look for dynamic elements in the url for instance.

I have
About 548,000 results (0.11 seconds)
I can see a lot of category pages
example
http://www.Somesite.com/articles/computer-hardware
Where i can see small portions of each article as 10 in a page
I can restrict them via Robots?
Also what would the parameter be for such pages
thanks

Make a site:yourdomain.com search on google and see what urls you find that don't need to be indexed.

Ya noindex i cannot..
Each page has recent posts and this could be the issue i guess. But any suggestions on how i can identify from where these are pulled
-
i don't think noindex would help much. which pages would you noindex anyhow?
to me it looks like a lot of links indeed and i would try to find the root since it looks like you have some duplication issues hidden somewhere...
-
I have a related posts block that shows in every page and i guess these internal links are showing because of that
Would a Noindex and nofollow help? with these related posts block alone?

Its a Q&A site so you have 100's of new pages created each day dynamically on a drupal website

In my personal opinion internal links have more to do with site architecture and if they are user friendly! Try to focus on producing better user experience on your site and keep that in mind that links should not be too many that it comes under the section of over optimization.
You number shows that you have too many pages on your website. Just see if the user experience is not shitty then you are good to go!

Malicious Link
Hello all, We're doing an adwords campaign, and Google has said that there is a malicious link on the website we're looking to advertise - so cannot launch the campaign. I've tried to go through Search Console (I am a novice BTW). And it says that "Domain properties are not supported at this time". Which I don't understand. Any advice please?!

A query about internal linking. Have I got this right?
Hi Guys I think this sounds like a right noobie question, but I am amongst friends so here goes. So our website is an ecommerce site selling magazines. There are certain magazines, for example Vogue, where we sell the UK version, USA, italian, spanish, french etc there's basically 13 different Vogue magazines on our site. The more niche ones attract some good long tail traffic. However, the UK version is competitive and so requires some extra umph to get us a half descent rank. However, when you search "vogue magazine subscription" for example, it's our italian vogue which is listed first. When I looked into this, I found that we had linked out from our UK Vogue to Italian vogue. Could this have given the italian vogue a marginal boost, as it had the additional internal links? What I have now done is add to some, not all, of the variations something along the lines "you will find the UK Vogue magazine here" where "UK Vogue Magazine" is the anchor text. Is this the right thing to do? Will this identify that the UK Vogue page is the higher priority page, or the more important page? I was also going to add to a category page a "Top 10 Womens magazines" section, and link to Vogue from there. Am I barking up the right tree? Thanks Guys Paul

Bing Webmaster tool
Hi Fellas, I wanted to know once you verify the BIng Webmaster tool (via xml file) for a dev site, do you have to do the verification process again for the final site? I thought I needed to do the verification again but once I added the final website (which have almost a similar URL) into the webmaster tool account, it seemed that I didn't have to verify it. I am a bit confused. Thank you for clarifying

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

Duplicate title issue
During the crwal SEO moz found duplicate title problems with quite a good number of pages. This was because my site has test questions like http://www.skill-guru.com/12/scjp-5-mock-test/questions and when user does next or previous, they can traverse to different pages but the title and descrition would remain same. How can this probkem be resolved ?
