What on-site issue could be causing Moz to not detect internal links?
-
Hey guys,
We've done a crawl and none of our internal links are showing up. Are there any on-page factors that would prevent Moz from being able to detect our internal links?
Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to follow up on this thread to see if I could provide any further assistance. I would be happy to look into your site if you could provide the URL that is giving you trouble.:) If you want to to work 1:1 with a help teamster I would recommend sending an email about this to help@moz.com.
In the meantime if you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to ask.
Have a great day!

If I were to guess I would guess the amount of javascript on the page does not let the crawler render the page. One way that seems reasonable to test is to use the on page grader, what kind of information is being scraped from it? Is it accurate or is it blank?

Thanks for your response. Here is some more information about the issue -
Are your link hidden in flash or java? **No **
Is the page an iframe? No
A little more information about this site:
- Is indexed by Google, successful Screaming Frog crawl
- Recently converted from http to https (sitewide)

Are you links hidden in flash or java? Is the page an iframe? Try running a screaming frog to see if it indexes the site.

Best practice for Portfolio Links
I have a client with a really large project portfolio (over 500 project images), which causes their portfolio page to have well over the 100 links that are recommended. How can I reduce this without reducing the number of photos they can upload?

Internal Links: Navigation Bar vs. Body Text
Hello. I have a page on our site that is especially popular and has many inbound links. This page has the same site navigation buttons (at the top) as every other page on the site. Do these site navigation buttons pass along link juice to other pages in the same way that an internal link would elsewhere on the page? Thank you!

Header Links vs. In Page Links
We have lost considerable rank for some of our top search terms (department names) and the rank loss correlates to a change we made on our homepage. That change was to remove a secondary navigation to the major departments in the content of our homepage. Now all we have is the global header navigation on the homepage (and all other pages on the site). I have read that in-page links pass more value than sitewide header links and I'm wondering if this is really true. These were text links (not linked images) and our header also contains text links (and some javascript). We did not make any other changes on our site at this time and this was not around the time of any major algorithm updates. The site is www.ebags.com.

To Many Links On Page
I'm having a problem on a crawl warning for our main site. The warning is that every one of my pages has to many links, a little over 1,000 on almost all of them. I think this is because our category list on our left hand sidebar has so many categories, and that sidebar appears on every last one of our pages even all the way into our products. Can anyone take a look and tell me if this is the reason why and what I could possibly do about this? Thanks in advance! www.Ocelco.com

Internal link structure for large site
I am working on a very large directory site which is undergoing a complete redesign. I am considering the internal link structure from first principles. When a site has over 100,000 pages, how do you ensure that each page is linked to from somewhere so that there are no orphans? Trying to get my head around the structure makes my brain hurt. Any tips?

Duplicate Links
Hello, I am entering sitewide navigation that will go to primary seo pages. This is really for usability, not for link juice. I'm wondering if I should still link to these very important pages in my index page's content. Or if I should consider those navigation links strong enough. If I did link in the content, then I would have more than one link to the same page on my home page. Thanks Tyler
