Crawl Report Internal Links Count
-
We recently ran a crawl report on www.phase1tech.com. Some of the pages are coming back with a large amount of 'internal links'. These 2 pages for example are showing 800 internal links:
http://www.phase1tech.com/Upcoming-Events
http://www.phase1tech.com/ContactAt best there are approximately 70 links on the page. Where is the 800 number coming from?

Thank you for the reply Abe. Perhaps I am not following.
The crawl report has distinct columns for Internal Links and External Links per page.
According to the description of the report (What's included in my Crawl Test report?):Internal Links Number of links on a page that point to the same domain as that page.
Linking Root Domains Number of root domains that link to this page.
External Links Number of links on a page that point to a page that is not on the same domain as that page.Referring again to actual pages from the report:
Page / Internal Links / Linking Root Domains / External Links
http://www.phase1tech.com/Upcoming-Events / 800 / 1 / 0
http://www.phase1tech.com/Contact / 800 / 1 / 0
http://www.phase1tech.com/FLIR-Cameras / 724 / 1 / 0Is the report incorrect then?

Hello George, I'd love to help! That 799 number you are seeing is the Total Linking Pages number, meaning external pages from other websites linking to you, as well. After peeking at your site, you do in fact only have 70 Internal links in your site. I hope this helps!

Why is Moz Crawling More Pages Than My Site Actually Has?
Hi I have a site that only has 5k pages but Moz has crawled 50K pages on the site when I initiated the site crawl. I don't exactly know why Moz is reporting me back so many pages but I was wondering why this is and if any of you out in the Moz community know anything about this. Thanks

Crawl Diagnostics: How many pages (deep) will it crawl for dup content
Does anyone know how deep the crawl diagnostics will crawl when searching for dup content? Will it crawl the entire site, or will it only crawl "x" amount of pages? Thanks!

Moz Report: Number of Domains linking to Domain
In the Moz report, what does the "number of domains linking to domain" indicate? I'm analyzing our competitors link profile and noticed some numbers as high as 2369232? Is there a form that explains the reports a little more in detail? Thanks,

Can Moz use canconical links to prevent notices about duplicate content issues?
if so how do we enable this - we've an average size site with a few hundred products but they appear in multiple categories, canonical url points to it's primary category (but a new page exists for each section... so for /cat-a/abc there will be another page cat-b/abc and again but the canonical points to cat-a always for that product) basically I see this kind of duplication error / notice as a false positive... help me

How do you stop Moz crawling a page?
Hello, I have a contact form which generates thousands of duplicate crawl errors. I'm going to use to block Google indexing these pages. Will this also block MOZ from crawling these pages and displaying the error? Thanks!
