Crawl Report Internal Links Count
-
We recently ran a crawl report on www.phase1tech.com. Some of the pages are coming back with a large amount of 'internal links'. These 2 pages for example are showing 800 internal links:
http://www.phase1tech.com/Upcoming-Events
http://www.phase1tech.com/ContactAt best there are approximately 70 links on the page. Where is the 800 number coming from?

Thank you for the reply Abe. Perhaps I am not following.
The crawl report has distinct columns for Internal Links and External Links per page.
According to the description of the report (What's included in my Crawl Test report?):Internal Links Number of links on a page that point to the same domain as that page.
Linking Root Domains Number of root domains that link to this page.
External Links Number of links on a page that point to a page that is not on the same domain as that page.Referring again to actual pages from the report:
Page / Internal Links / Linking Root Domains / External Links
http://www.phase1tech.com/Upcoming-Events / 800 / 1 / 0
http://www.phase1tech.com/Contact / 800 / 1 / 0
http://www.phase1tech.com/FLIR-Cameras / 724 / 1 / 0Is the report incorrect then?

Hello George, I'd love to help! That 799 number you are seeing is the Total Linking Pages number, meaning external pages from other websites linking to you, as well. After peeking at your site, you do in fact only have 70 Internal links in your site. I hope this helps!

Hi, When using the Link Explorer to query URLs, when a long URL is entered, the field obscures the full URL eventough the field width should be able to comfortably fit the whole URL. This started to happen a few weeks ago. Hope this can be fixed soon. Thanks!

Moz Crawl Report Increase in Errors?
Has anyone else noticed a huge increase over the past couple weeks in crawl issues in their dashboards? Without being able to see historical data week over week, I can't tell what's been added. Is this some update with the tool? I'm not seeing any health issues with this feature on the Moz Health page, it just seems strange that I'm seeing this across all our accounts.
