How can i check which inbound links to my site go to 404 pages?
-
I have external links coming into my site going to 404 pages, but i cant seem to find a way to search all broken links pointed at my website.

Nick,
I went to that wiki page, and clicked through the link. While the page does redirect to a page which contains content stating "404 Page Not Found", in actuality that page is giving a 200 response, not a 404. In order for any broken link reports to work, the page would have to actually return a 4xx response code (404, 410, etc.).
Here is the redirect path log from the Ayima plugin:
Status Code URL IP Page Type Redirect Type Redirect URL
301 http://www.africatravelresource.com/africa/tanzania/c/zanzibar/nungwi/ 104.26.7.235 server_redirect permanent https://africatravelresource.com/africa/tanzania/c/zanzibar/nungwi/
200 https://africatravelresource.com/africa/tanzania/c/zanzibar/nungwi/ 104.26.6.235 normal none none -
Hi There,
Thanks for the help. I hadn't checked here before so thanks for pointing that out. Unfortunately it hasn't solved my problem.
Here is an example that wasnt showing up on the 4xx link.
Linking Page ; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nungwi
Broken link on page : "Nungwi safaris, tailor-made vacations to Nungwi, Nungwi holidays - ATR". www.africatravelresource.com.
How can i find these types of broken links through Moz Link Checker?
I look forward to hearing from you
Best Regards
Nick

In Moz, within your campaign you can go to Links > Top Pages, and then choose the filter "4xx".

Many of my pages are showing up as 4xx errors because they require a login/subscription to view. How can I fix this?
Should these pages be redirecting to a login page? Or does there need to be something other than an Access Denied message? I feel like these are bringing the overall site score down.

On page SEO Strategy / What pages to use?
What is the best page to use for targeting your hard to rank keywords? The keyword phrases in question here are "Acrylic Tank Manufacturing", "Custom Aquariums", & "Acrylic Aquariums" As of right now we have created 3 separate pages for each one of these keyword phrases. http://seaquaticaquariums.com/custom-aquariums for "Custom Aquariums" http://www.seaquaticaquariums.com/custom-aquariums/acrylic-aquariums/ for "Acrylic Aquariums" http://www.seaquaticaquariums.com/services/acrylic-tank-manufacturing/ for "Acrylic Tank Manufacturing" Or are we better of using the home page http://www.seaquaticaquariums.com/ for the our main hard to rank for terms. Generally speaking I would think more people will link to our home page.

Is this type of Internal Linking Bad or Good for my Site????
A while back we were schooled on "Link Silos" a reputable SEO source.... and one suggestion was to create links from our product pages (bottom of link silo), back up to it's higher category page. So for example... Home > Tools > Hair Dryers > "Product" On the subject product... we chose to link back to "Hair Dryers" and then "Andis" (that product's brand page. You can see this at the below product page. We added the links below "Related Categories" in the product description. http://www.beautystoponline.com/Andis-Colorwaves-Tourmaline-Hair-Dryer-Blue-Green-p/an1dry0295.htm We are now thinking this may be just too much as there is already a "bread crumb" trail at the top of the product page. These are in essence links back up to higher categories. Any input on these types of links would be appreciated.. Thanks!

Webpage with around 200+ inter links per page
HI, I have a client that I recently took on and I run a SEOmoz crawl on the website and a minor error was that .. 1. web pages have more than 200+ interlinks, reason for this is becuase the client offers a service to every place in the world and then has links to contact us/about us etc those kind of pages. is this something we need to strongly avoid? 2. The title tags are all over the suggested amount by 1/2 letters. - again is this really bad?
