Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Actually previously I had removed the links manually. But I am seeing them come up again even after removing the parameter completely.

Can you please point our the problem for me?

I have a blog dapazze.com and I am suffering from a problem for a long time. I found out that Google have indexed hundreds of replytocom links and images attachment pages for my blog.

I had to remove these pages manually using the URL removal tool. I had used "Disallow: ?replytocom" in my robots.txt, but Google disobeyed it. After that, I removed the parameter from my blog completely using the SEO by Yoast plugin.

But now I see that Google has again started indexing these links even after they are not present in my blog (I use #comment). Google have also indexed many of my admin and plugin pages, whereas they are disallowed in my robots.txt file.

Have a look at my robots.txt file here: http://dapazze.com/robots.txt

Please help me out to solve this problem permanently?

Ok. Thanks for making me understand the problem.

But will it hurt, if all these sidebar, footer, and  navigation links get counted as internal links? I only make about 5 internal links from the body of the post, but all these other links are making it to 100+.

Will these create any problem for me?

The article is excellent. It made my conception very very clear. Thank you.

Hi, Thanks a lot for making me understand the problem. But still there is a confusion left with me. Please have a look at the link I gave you with. I see that almost all pages in my blog are getting linked from that particular page, according to SEOmoz. But in reality, my post contains only a few internal links, not even 10 I guess. But how can it reach upto 464 links, while I am not physically linking to those pages, nor do I see any link currently present in that page. You can also check yourself if you want to confirm. Then how does SEOmoz show me about 464 links? Nt only this page, other pages also have similar stats. And not only my blog, I have noticed this same thing for many popular blogs like ProBlogger, Hongkiat.com, etc. Then how come they are also doing the same mistake? Is it a mistake from my/our side, or is it a mistake SEOmoz crawler has, and it is reporting internal links wrongly?

Hi,

I recently did run a crawl report for my blog dapazze.com, and found that SEOmoz is reporting many pages on my blog having more than 100 internal links.

I opened OSE, and made a search for one of my pages which was reported to contain more than 100 links. And I found it to contain 464 internal links.

Here is the link: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links?page=1&site=dapazze.com%2F2012%2F10%2Fwin-a-commentluv-premium-single-site-and-multi-site-license-worth-about-154-giveaway-of-october%2F&sort=page_authority&filter=&source=internal&target=page&group=0

Please have a look at it. I have chosen - Show "All" links from "only internal" pages to "this page" option in OSE, which reports me this.

I see almost every page in my blog linking to every page. This is not the problem for me. I have also tried to make a search for some popular bloggers, like ProBlogger.net, ShoutMeLoud.com, HellBoundBloggers.com, etc, and all of them have the same problem.

Should I be worrying about this problem? What is the problem actually?
