Too Many On-Page Links
-
Hello.
My Seomoz report this week tells me that I have about 500 pages with
Too Many On-Page Links
One of the examples is this one:
https://www.theprinterdepo.com/hp-9000mfp-refurbished-printer (104 links)
If you check, all our products have a RELATED products section and in some of them the related products can be UP to 40 Products.
I wonder how can I solve this.
I thought that putting nofollow on the links of the related products might fix all of these warnings?
Putting NOFOLLOW does not affect SEO?
-
It does benefit my user, so what you are saying is that I should ignore these warnings.
-
Correct, a good point. 104 links isn't that many anyway, if it's all fine on the User Experience front, then nothing to be concerned with.
I would suggest to Avoid NoFollow links internally on your site, that indicates that the page to be 'not followed' is not an important page, this is usually not a good signal to send to the search engines.
Regards, Simon

All the related products to one specific product are indexed by crawling another pages.
Example, the hp 9000 mfp above. has related product its toners.
However those toners are also accesed by the toner category page.

Gyi's suggestion to analyze your crawl rate is spot on. The SEOMoz warning is out of date - Google used to advise that you not have more than 100 links on a page, but Cutts would tell you today that G no longer prefers a limit BUT that the question you should ask is: does it benefit my website visitor?

I wouldn't look at number of links on a page in a complete vacuum. Disclaimer, I haven't reviewed your site. Keep in mind that your site's authority matters in terms of how a search engine will Carl your site (length of time, number of pages, etc). Are all the links on your pages getting crawled and indexed (gwmt)? Have you tried testing whether a page solely linked from a page containing many links, from a link after those links, gets crawled? This might be a better indication of whether you truly have too many.

Over 40+ pages have been removed from the indexed and this page has been selected as the google preferred canonical.
Over 40+ pages have been removed from the indexed and this page has been selected as the google preferred canonical. https://studyplaces.com/about-us/ The pages affected by this include: https://studyplaces.com/50-best-college-party-songs-of-all-time-and-why-we-love-them/ https://studyplaces.com/15-best-minors-for-business-majors/ As you can see the content on these pages is totally unrelated to the content on the about-us page. Any ideas why this is happening and how to resolve.

Backlink Profile: Should I disavow these links? Auto-Generated Links etc
Hello Moz Community, At first I wanted to say that I really like the Q&A section and that I read and learned a lot - and today it is time for my first own question 😉 I checked our backlink-profile these days and I found in my opinion a few bad/spammy links, most of them are auto-generated by pickung up some (meta) information from our webpage. Now my question is if I should dasavow these links over webmasters or if these links shouldn't matter as I guess basically every webpage will be picked up from them. Especially from the perspective that our rankings dropped significantly last weeks, but I am not sure if this can be the real reason. Examples are pages like: https://www.askives.com/ -Auto-Generates for example meta descriptions with links http://www.websitesalike.com/ -find similar websites http://mashrom.ir/ -no idea about this, really crazy Or we are at http://www.europages.com/, which makes sense for me and we get some referral traffic as well, but they auto-generated links from all their TLDs like .gr / .it / .cn etc. -just disavow all other TLDs than .com? Another example would be links from OM services like: seoprofiler.com Moreover we have a lot of links from different HR portals (including really many outdated job postings). Can these links “hurt” as well? Thanks a lot for your help! Greez Heiko

How much domain authority is passed on through a link from a page with low authority?
Hello, Let's say that there is a link to site A from site B. The domain authority of site B is 85, but the link is on a page that has a page authority of only 1. Does much authority get passed along from site B to site A? (Let's assume site A has a domain authority of 35, if that's relevant.) Thank you!

Internal Linking
Hello there, I own a "how to" website with 1000+ articles, and the number of articles is growing every day. Often some articles are easier to understand if I link a certain step to an article that was written before, because that article explains the step in more detail. Should I use "read here/read more" or the "title of the article I'm referring to" as anchor text? When is internal linking too much? Should I use nofollow?

We registered with Yahoo Directory. Why won't this show up as a a linking root domain in our link analysis??
Recently checked our link analysis report for 2 of our campaigns who are registered in the dir.yahoo.com (yahoo directory). For some reason, we don't see this being a domain that shows up as linking to our website - why is this?

Is this a good link?
Found a .gov link to my website www.kars4kids.org. The url it links to is http://www.nyc.gov/cgi-bin/exit.pl?url=http://www.kars4kids.org/ which does eventually redirect to kars4kids. Will search engines see this as a link?
