How to find outbound links
-
Hello, I want to know how to find outbound links of any website. is it possible to like search google as "link:domain.com" or with any parameter?
-
Hi Figen,
I fear that will be difficult to find - I did a quick google search & first result was this topic on Moz from Jan. 2013 (http://moz.com/community/q/how-do-you-check-the-outbound-links-of-a-site) . The answers basically are the same - it's possible to to a check outgoing links on one page using tools- however if you want to do it on a full domain - you'll need a tool like Screaming Frog (or alternative Xenu LinkSleuth).
If Google isn't providing the info, all the other potential solutions would require crawling sites - most of the tools available on the market give information about who is linking to your site (or you competitor's site for that matter) - but not the other way.

Thank you for reply. But as you said size of website might be a little problem crawl with software. For example sites have a big index like moz.com .
In fact I'm looking for an easy way to find outbound links.
Thank you

I don't think Google provides you with this info. You could use a tool like Screaming Frog to crawl the sites & to check their external links - depending on the size of the sites this could take quite some time & you would need the pro version of the tool.
rgds,
Dirk

How do you check what links there are to a specific page on a site?
Hi Mozzers, I'm doing a bit of research and need your help! I'm trying to find out what specific sites link to a particular page on a website. What's the best tool to use as I checked it with Moz and it only brought back 5 links? Then I tried an free online tool and it said there were 35 links. I'm a bit confused now. What tool/s do you use to check links to a specific page?

Avvo.com: Are links in the contribution area bad for SEO?
Hello all and thank you for taking the time to read my question. I am struggling with a client of mine. I have done just about everything that I can think of that has worked on other sites. Banging my head up against the wall here. He is VERY active in the contribution area of Avvo.com (answering questions and making guides). His site use to rank very well but now it can't be found at all. One of the things that caught my attention is the way he would leave his citation in his answers for AVVO. He would leave a direct link to his website. Since his rankings have dropped I have advised him to stop. Do you think Google is treating them as spam? His link profile is small >1000 links but half of them are from AVVO I was wondering if anyone else any experience with this? Thanks in advance

Best way to prevent "Duplicate Content" for different links
We are working on job portal domain. As we know jobs going to be expired day by day. I will give you my question by example. Example: I have two links [mysite.com/Jobs-In-Cincinnati and mysite.com/Jobs-In-Atlanta]. Before month I had too many jobs on both the links. Jobs were expired one by one after two/three months I don't have any jobs on both the links.So I got same page content on both the links like "please refine search". Google consider these two pages as duplicate content issue. Will you please suggest which is the best way to come out from it? Thanks in advance.

Linking within a website advice please
Hi i am working on my site which is a lifestyle magazine and i have been reading about using linking within your own website to help you climb up the search engines. Now i am trying to find out if this is correct information and if so which is the best way to use this. I have an example page below, as stated i am still working on the site and the site will still take me a few more weeks yet. http://www.in2town.co.uk/news/soap-gossip/eastenders-fans-not-happy-over-tanya-plot Now if it is correct that linking from within a site is a good way to climb the search engines, i would like to know how i would do it for this page. I am looking at climbing the search engines for soap gossip and celebrity news. I was thinking should i have a line at the bottom saying something like for all the latest celebrity news visit our site or something like this. any advice would be great
