Trying to find all internal links to a specific page (without index)
-
Hi guys --
Still waiting on Moz to index a page of mine. We launched a new site over two months ago.
In the meantime, I really just need a list of internal links to a specific page because I want to change its URL. Does anybody know how to find that list (of internal links to 1 of my pages) without the Moz index?
I appreciate the help!

@marchexmarketingmcc intelligible results from Google tools is never to be expected.

Hi! You can use Screaming Frog and Google Search Console, as it is mentioned in this article: https://rush-analytics.com/blog/find-all-pages-on-website
Also, they've mentioned their own tool, but I haven't tried it yet. -
You can make complete Crawl of your webpage with Screaming Frog. If the number of pages is not large. You can check the internal Links and export it. With Pivot tables you can identify all pages which link to a specific page.
-
If you have a new page that replaces an out of date one. Maybe you'd be better off putting a 301 redirect in place.?

Screaming Frog

My answer is outdated, now it works like this:
- Go to Google Search Console (former Webmaster Tools) and chose the site you want.
- On the left-hand menu, select LINKS, there you can also see your sites Internal links.

@sceorily Yes my answer is more than 4 years old...
now the link in the Google Search Console (former Webmaster Tools) is called LINKS. There you can also see your sites Internal links.
The asteriks were wrong formatting from my side I guess.

If you are wanting to find all internal links on a specific page on your website. You can follow these steps in Ahref webmaster tool:
- Enter your website URL in Site Explorer
- Then, Click on Internal Backlinks - Where you can see all internal backlinks of specific page of your website.
I hope this helps!

@cesare-marchetti Hi there. As Moz has reminded me just now, it's almost 2022. I'm afraid your instruction appears to be out of date. Google has moved the Search box, and I find no "Traffic" link. By the way, are the ** (asterisks) supposed to be included in the search string? I tried with and without, no intelligible results.
Then again, intelligible results from Google tools is never to be expected.
I'll keep trying. But this is like throwing darts blindfolded, and not even knowing which direction the dartboard is.

Download XENU - http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html - run a crawl of your site and right click the properties of any page to see all internal links linking to that page.
-
Simple enough. Thanks Cesare.

Hi, you can use Search Console (Webmaster Tools) for that and see a list of internal links for your website as follows:
- On the Webmaster Tools Home page, click the site you want.
- On the left-hand menu, click **Search **Traffic, and then click Internal Links.
Cheers,
Cesare

My pages are being crawled, but not indexed according to Search Console
According to Google Search Console, my pages are being crawled by not indexed. We use Shopify and about two weeks ago I selected that Traffic from all our domains redirects to our primary domain. So everything from www.url.com and https://url.com and so on, would all redirect to one url. Have added an attached image from Search Console. 6fzEQg8

Specific pages won't index
I have a few pages on my site that Google won't index, and I can't understand why. I've looked into possible issues with Robots, noindex, redirects, canonicals, and Search Console rules. I've got nothing. Example: I want this page to index https://tour.franchisebusinessreview.com/services/franchisee-satisfaction-surveys/ When I Google the full URL, I get results including the non-subdomain homepage, and various pages on the subdomain, including a child page of the page I want, but not the page itself. Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

Do Sitespect links get indexed?
I put a link on one of my websites using sitespect because the next release is not for a few weeks. The reason for the link is to pass domain authority (SEO Juice) to the linked site. In my next release I will add the link in the actual code, but am hoping that from now till then google will crawl and index this link. So the question is, will google crawl and index links adding to webpages via sitespect? Here is the code: | * [http://www.](<a class=)yourdomain.com" class="" >YourDomain |

When doing internal linking back to your home/index file what is the best coding course of action?
When doing internal linking back to your home/index page is it best to set the code as linked to "www.thedomain.com" or "www.thedomain.com/" or just "/" - I'm attempting some canonicalization and our programmer is concerned about linking to just the URL as he's saying it's going to be viewed as an external source. We have www redirects in place that come back to just www.thedomain.com and a redirect to send the www.thedomain.com/index.php back to just www.thedomain.com . Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Too Many Page Links
I have 8 niche websites for golf clubs. This was done to carve out tight niches for specific types of clubs then only broadens each club by type - i.e. better player, game improvement, max game improvement. So far, for fairly young sites, <1 year, they are doing fairly well as I build content. Running campaigns has alerted me to one problem - too many on-page links. And because I use Wordpress those links are on each page in the right sidebar and lead to the other sites. Even though visitors arrive via organic search in most cases they tend to eventually exit to one of the other sites or they click on a product (Ebay) and venture off to hopefully make a purchase. Ex: Drivers site will have a picture link for each of the other 7 sites. Question: If I have one stie (like a splash page) used as one link to that page listing all the sites with a brief explanation of each site will this cause visitors to bounce off because they will have one click, than the list and other clicks depending on what other club/site they would like to go to. The links all open in new windows. This would cut down on the number of links per page of each site but will it cause too much work for visitors and cause them to leave?

What if I point my canonicals to a URL version that is not used in internal links
My web developer has pointed the "good" URLs that I use in my internal link structure (top-nav/footer) to another duplicate version of my pages. Now the URLs that receive all the canonical link value are not the ones I use on my website. is this a problem and why??? In theory the implementation is good because both have equal content. But does it harm my link equity if it directs to a URL which is not included in my internal link architecture.
