Internal Followed Links:
-
Ran Open site explorer on my site:
It is saying that I only have "1" Internal followed link
could somebody tell me what that means... and maybe take a look at my site and see it this is a quick fix?
-
I am having this same issue. There are plenty of links on my website to other pages of my website, but I am only getting 1... I thought it might be because my links are in a spry menu, but I have some bottom links that are normal links.
I am the business owner/Photographer/Editor/Webmaster... I did not go to school for HTML (except for one basic class) if you know what I'm doing wrong, can you explain in laments terms? The hosting co I use is BlueHost.
Thanks
Kelly

| Internal Followed Links: are now 0!!?? |
Just went from 1 to 0 ? I can't figure this out.
-
Alan, what tool are you using to find links to /home?
-
But you still have links to /home. lots of them.
-
The home page used to be /home for about 2 months after I did the new site. I have recently found that since most links i had where pointed to .com/ I changed the site to .com/
the page rank is much better for .com/ then /home so I am going to stick with .com and weather the storm.
-
Agreed, one other thing i noticed was a lot of redirects from "http://www.psbspeakers.com/home to "http://www.psbspeakers.com"
This i believe would be doing you a lot of harm.
Linking back to teh home page correctly is very important.
reading this page will explain it. (ignore outdated stuff about inbound links can not harm you)
-
The robots stuff should be blocked. they are not really usable so I blocked them.
Thanks for your suggestions above... but wouldn't I still have more then 1 link on the home page even with all the little problems you found?
-
Your robots.txt is blocking 570 internal links.
You also have 442 unnessasary redirects. an example
The link to "http://www.psbspeakers.com/articles/HCC-Imagine-home-theater-review" has resulted in HTTP redirection to "http://www.psbspeakers.com/articles/HCC-Imagine-Home-Theatre-Review".
you should 301 redirect to all lowercase, and you should make sure that all yout internal links pioint to the lowercase version.
-
yep. typed it in correctly.
I am thinking that i have some sort of 301 or server side stuff effecting the crawl. -
some sort of glitch. are you sure you typed in the domain correctly? I assume it is http://www.psbspeakers.com/ and not how it was typed above.
I see no problem on your site, you've got tons of internal dofollowed links on the homepage.

Webmaster Tools - How your data is linked?
This may be an easy questions, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere and I never really looked into it before. In google webmaster tools, in the dashboard there is the section that says "How Your Data Is Linked". What does that refer to? Is that just using internal link anchor text, external link anchor text or a combination of both? I am pretty sure that it is a combination of both, but I just want to make sure before making some internal link changes so that the most common anchor text is no longer "Prices" and "Sign up". Thanks.

Too many onpage links
We got the weekly seomoz reports and see that most of our pages and posts contain too many onpage links. I checked our website and all of our pages have a header, footer and left side menu. I did the math and there are 13 links in the header, 26 links in the footer and 76 links in the left side menu. This means that all of our post and pages have 115 links at the start. So what do I do? Do I remove the left side menu from the posts' layout and use only the footer and header? Or do I add nofollow links? Thanks!

Are Back Links King
We have worked as closely as possible to the guidelines and advice on this forum, if we compare our on page Analsis with other companies in the same field as ours we have a far better site as far as SEO is concerned, our DA authority is higher and most of our page authority is higher but we just cannot seem to get up to their level in the search engines, one site that is in competiton with us do not use Facebook and also they do not use Twitter very much, I looked at some of their backlinks and their top one which was a blog had not been updated since 2011, over the years we have amassed far more what I would call worthless links as this was the done thing then, how can I get on the right track, are there any companies who could assess our site for a reasonable cost to point us in the right direction, we are doing our own blog, Facebook, Twitter, Onlywire?

Too many on page links in sitemap.html
My crawl report is flagging an issue with too many links to one of my pages, this page is my sitemap.html. However, I have coded the page so that if required is specified it generates an .xml version of the page and if not then the html version is displayed. What is the best way to stop the crawl finding the html version whilst maintaining it on the site for clients navigation?

International SEO - differentiating Meta data
Hi, We are developing a website for a company based in the US, but that also distributes to the UK. After careful thought, we decided to go with adding subdirectories for the UK pages on the site rather than creating content on a new ccTLD (though they own that domain). 1. How much of the Title Tags, H1, content, needs to be different for UK versions of the same page. Is it enough to simply Geo tag the EN subdirectory in Webmaster Tools? Or do the Title tags and content need to be different in order to avoid keyword cannibalization? 2. Would it be better to create a Landing Page using the ccTLD .co.uk version with information that links to the .com/en version? This would allow the users to see the .co.uk version for trust-building purposes. Or, would it just be better to 301 redirect the .co.uk version to the .com/en? Thanks for your help! Erin

Do NoFollow links still split link equity?
So I realize that Google will split link equity between all links on any given page. Example, if a landing page has 10 links then the authority from the landing page is split into 10 and each link given its own smaller amount of equity from that landing page. My question is if I were to turn 9 of the 10 links on this page to NoFollow links would the equity still remain split 10 ways or would it simply pass all of it to the one DoFollow link left on the page?

Lots of links on homepage to internal pages with keyword rich anchor text - problem?
Hi, All! We have a new potential client, that when looking at his site with a tool, we noticed that the previous SEO company they worked with filled the homepage copy with lots of keyword-rich anchor text links pointing to different pages on the site - many links going to the same page, just with different keywords. These links are not indistinguishable in format from the other text, which is why we only noticed it with a tool. I certainly wouldn't recommend doing that to start with, but once all these links are there, would you recommend taking them down? Is there any conceivable chance it could help the site? Is there a significant reason to think it will harm the site? Or will it just be pretty neutral? In all that's been written (much by SEOMoz) about only the first link's anchor text counting, do subsequent links work like a no-follow in the sense that they are a waste of the link-juice of the page, or is it as if they aren't there at all? (And is "only the first link counts" still the most widely held theory, or have there been new developments since?) Thanks, All!
