Internal 404 Error
-
Hi sorry for the newbie question, I have a few 404 pages on my moz crawl report. so for example this one : http://www.dwliverpoolphotography.co.uk/blog/www.coraclecomm.wordpress.com. How can I find the page that is linking to it so I can fix the link or delete it?
Best wishes.
David.

As an FYI for anyone else reading this as well as your future knowledge - the Broken Link Finder may take a day or two to catalog your whole site based on how many pages, how many links in your theme, etc. So while it may have missed it today, I would bet that after 2-3 days it finds every broken link. I've never found one it missed, especially with the above issue (no http).

thanks guys!
The broken link plug missed one that screaming frog found so I will use both tools in the future.
Best wishes.

Screaming Frog handles this really well. Just do a scan of your site and sort the columns by Status Code. Find the page in question and there is a tab at the bottom for "In Links" that will tell you which pages it is linked from.

Looks like a broken comment link. You are on Wordpress, right? Just install the Broken Links plugin and run through the links it finds. You can fix or delete straight from the plugin.
What happened was someone left you a comment using "www.mydomain.com" instead of "http://www.mydomain.com" - the link then gets messed up.

Simple question: I wonder if I'm over internally linking?
Hi, What's you guys' policy on how much to internally link. I do it a lot - whenever it makes sense, but hold off if I just linked to the same page in the last paragraph, for instance. Would like to know your thoughts to see if I'm overdoing it. This is for Ecommerce blog posts, category descriptions, and product descriptions if that matters. Thanks.

How do I avoid duplicate content and page title errors when using a single CMS for a website
I am currently hosting a client site on a CMS with both a Canadian and USA version of the website. We have the .com as the primary domain and the .ca is re-directed from the registrar to the Canadian home page. The problem I am having is that my campaign produces errors for duplicate page content and duplicate page titles. Is there a way to setup the two versions on the CMS so that these errors do not get produced? My concern is getting penalized from search engines. Appreciate any help. Mark Palmer

More than 100 internal links from a page
Hi, we have been developing our new site and improving the internal linking for 2 reasons, 1 to improve spidering and 2 to up sell more to customers. The error reports from SEOMoz are showing our biggest problem is too many internal links from 2000+ pages. How much of an impact does it have by having say 180 internal links compared to say 99 on a page? Our website has been moving up the SERPs so should i worry about it or should I ignore the warnings and continue with the menu system and internal linking we have in place already? Thanks

Internal link structure for large site
I am working on a very large directory site which is undergoing a complete redesign. I am considering the internal link structure from first principles. When a site has over 100,000 pages, how do you ensure that each page is linked to from somewhere so that there are no orphans? Trying to get my head around the structure makes my brain hurt. Any tips?
