Hm. I just clicked through your campaigns, and I'm not seeing that showing up anywhere. Where in Moz Pro are you getting that notification?

Hi Team,
It's something that Moz says as an insight to do....

Hi Matt,
Moz is saying to reduce the amount of internal links?
-
Most of your internal links come from the header menu and all the submenus under that. I agree with everyone else that this isn't something you need to do but if it is, consider using filters and parameter selection (for things like price, holiday/occasions, etc. )
But again ... why?
-
Hi there! I have to say I agree with Dmitrii. What makes you think that this is something you need to do?
-
Hi there.
Uhmm.. Why would you want to do it? If all links are relevant, "need" to be where they are and make sense to user - there is no reason to delete those. If you have some "internal link fishy scheme" going on or something, then yeah, you might want to. Simply delete links or restructure your website(I'd go with restructuring).
Hope this helps.

Do Google Know What People Are Doing On My Site?
I run an ecommerce site and am keep to increase the time on site and reduce bounce rate. I have had some good results from writing good articles and advertising them on Outbrain and Twitter; both of these metrics have improved. However, I am wondering if Google will see this. Clearly if people land on the pages from the SERPS and return there they will know what is happening but will they know if people get there from an advert?

Acquired Old, Bad Content Site That Ranks Great. Redirect to Content on My Site?
Hello. my company acquired another website. This website is very old, the content within is decent at best, but still manages to rank very well for valuable phrases. Currently, we're leaving the entire site active on its own for its brand, but i'd like to at least redirect some of the content back to our main website. I can't justify spending the time to create improved content on that site and not our main site though. What would be the best practice here? 1. Cross-domain canonical - and build the new content on our main website? 2. 301 Redirect Old Article to New Location containing better article 3. Leave the content where it is - you won't be able to transfer the ranking across domain. Thanks for your input.

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?

Link cannibalization
My on page report card gives me an "A" in every category but "link cannibalization". The key word is I am targeting is "home care". It says my links to "home care blog" and "in home care agency locator" are cannibalizing my home page. Am I indeed causing problems by using these modified versions of the keyword? Also is it okay to have the link "home care" for the home link in the main navigation bar? Thanks
