Internal links are not indexed of the website
-
Some internal links are indexed and some not of the same page of the website, what is the so and what is the reason behind?
-
Thanks for the answering but i am not exactly getting your 3 check points, can you please explain it again?
-
Hi,
In this case, it could be duplicate content, as both pages are practically the same, are you getting any warnings in Search Console about duplicate content?
Indexing comes under 3 main (simplified) checkpoints,
- Can Google get to the page?
- Is the link followed?
- Is the link high enough up the page that the spider will follow it? - Is the content worth it to Google to index?
Kind Regards
Jimmy
- Can Google get to the page?

Hello,
I would add one more checkpoint in above described by Alick300. you should check whether 'nofollow' is not added with link anchor tag.
Thanks,

Hi,
First you should check whether those pages that are not indexed blocked by the Meta Robots Tag or Robots.txt. If that is not the case you can do following things to get indexed those pages.
1>Submit your website URL to Google by signing into your Google Account and going to the Submit URL option in Webmaster Tools (Google search console). For extra credit, submit your site to Bing.
2>Fetch as Google - On Google Webmaster Tools (Google search console) you have the option to ask Google to crawl new pages or pages with updated content. This option is located under the Health section and is called Fetch as Google.
3>Update Xml sitemap
4>Get Inbound Links on those pages
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Internal Linking - in content vs navigation menu
Would like to get some thoughts on whether navigation menus or in-content links are best for internal linking, from an SEO standpoint. A few thoughts to get started with: For sites with a lot of content, you can have a navigation menu linking to your higher-level pages, then in-content links to deeper pages on your site. For smaller sites, this is not an option, as the navigation menu will probably link to all your important pages. You could add in-content links, but Google only counts the first link on the page, so the in-content links would be ignored if you'd already linked yp the page in your top nav menu. I can think of several possible reasons navigation menu links could be less desirable than in content links from a Google perspective. (They are sitewide boilerplate content without context.) If you setup your navigation structure based on what is best for the user, small sites don't have much wiggle room to optimize internal link structure, as all their money pages will be linked to from the top nav menu. Do you think Google prefers in content links to navigation menu links? If so, how do you get around the fact that for many sites, all their money pages are being linked to from their main navigation menu?

Is it ok to point internal links to index.html home page rather than full www
I thought I saw this somewhere on SEOmoz before but I was so busy by the time I got around to work on my SEO on my site, I realized I have this happening and can't recall if it is a problem which takes away from my ranking. If my www.website.com is ranking well but I have internal menu links pointing to www.website.com/index.html instead of www.website.com will that take away from my www.website.com rankings? Should I change all my menu links that point to /index.html to the full website url path www.website.com ?

Internal links
Hi, I am working on a project with very few really important pages - its now about 20 pages and this number will not increase to more than 30 by the end of the year. Today the majority of these Pages is 2 clicks away from the Homepage for navigational reasons. Now I am wondering: 1. If I should set links from the Homepage directly to these Pages to pass more juice?

Too Many On-Page Links
Hi All, New to SEOMoz, so thanks in advance for any answers! Looking at our Crawl Diagnostics and "Too Many On-Page Links" is first on the list. The site was build with the intention of users being able to quickly get to where they want to go with drop down menus (sub nav), so we built the navigation using bullet points/css. Yes, agreed there are too many links on each page from our navigation, main nav cats are 4 with sub nav about 40, but what is the best way to resolve the problem other then removing most of the links (from the sub nav drop down)? Could we just use the attribute rel=nofollow for the sub nav links? TIA
