On page links tool here at Seomoz
-
Hi Seomoz - first of all, thanks for the best SEO tools I have ever worked with (this is my first question in this forum, and also I just subscribed as a paying customer after the 30 days trial you guys offer).
My question:
After having worked for several weeks on getting the numbers of links in our forum on www.texaspoker.dk down, we are somewhat surprised to see that we didn't succeed in getting lower numbers.
For instance, this page: http://www.texaspoker.dk/forum/aktuelle-konkurrencer/coaching-projekt-bliver-du-den-udvalgte has (that's what Seomoz seo tool tells us): 239 on page links. Can this really be true? We can't find these links, and we actuually did a lot to lower the numbers of links, for instance the forum members picture was a link before, and also there was a "go to top" link in each post in the forum.
Thanks a lot.

Both of you: Thank you very much! I tagged this question as "good answer" as I believe I got my answer. What about you Pedro?
Great article by Dr. Pete, by the way - thanks for sharing!

There's a couple issues to address here, so let's start with the links.
When I ran the page through a tool called SEO browser, it counted 240 links. This was divided between 5 External and 235 Internal. This includes all the navigation links and most of the profile links as well.
The bigger question is, is this bad? 100 links per page is the accepted best practice, and that's why it's included in the tool. But it's not always appropriate for every case.
Dr. Pete wrote a great article on this: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-many-links-is-too-many
In your case, and for the type of page it is, I'd say you're in pretty good shape as far as the number of links go.

Well as far Im aware the crawling in SEOmoz is once a week.
However I have a project with the same problem as yours. In www.digitaldiscovery.eu I have like 200 on-page links in SEOmoz analyze. I already made the correction but in the SEOmoz analyze it still shows up 200 links in several pages of the website after 2 months..... I think we need help here Soren
Anyone from SEOmoz support team please?

Hi Pedro,
Thank you very much for your answer. I have been thinking of the very same as you say: "Maybe it's not updated yet" - but I just think it's strange if the tool has a "memory", since the analysis is made from a complete new crawl ....

Hello Soren,
Your talking about links in your site that are pointing to external websites, right?
If so the SEOmoz tools will take a while to show the situacion updated. Still a SEOmoz member crew would be usefull here

Lots of 404s listed in Top Pages by Page Authority
Hi guys, I'm slowly getting to grips with all the aspects of using Moz.
Moz Pro | | giddygrafix
Looking at my link analysis, under the tab labelled Top Pages by Page Authority, there's an awful lot of 404 pages listed. Are these pages which are being linked to (either internally or externally), and should I put a 301 redirect on all the pages listed? I've attached a picture... moz-screen-shot.jpg0 -
Campaign link not working?
I imagine most of the initial problems with the domain migration to moz.com will be cleaned up rather quickly. I did however notice right away my links to my campaigns from the dashboard were not working. I then click the campaigns tab up top and my campaign links worked from there. Just thought I'd share real quick incase anyone else is having the same issue.

SEOMoz Link Analysis Not Updating?
Hi there, I am wondering why the Link Analysis in SEOMoz takes so long to recognise new back-links. I have had the same figures showing for months when I know that I have added a lot more backlinks that are showing in my Google WebMaster account and I have also proven exist by searching directly in Google's search engine. How often does the Link Analysis section update itself? Are these figures worth following at all or are they useless? Thanks!

Could SEOMOZ make a tool thats connected directly to Webmaster Tools?
Could SEOMOZ make a tool that Crawls Internal Links that's connected (or crawls) directly from Webmaster Tools? (So link metrics on our domains would get updates more often) This would eliminate the cost of crawling the entire internet. I hate having to wait a month to see updates on my domain metrics and links. I would like to see updates regularly on my own domain. I understand you can just look at Webmaster tools to see your latest links but they don't have any link metrics. So it’s difficult to see your best links. If this already exists please refer me? Otherwise please show your support for this being developed?

Link from home page
I see an abundance of websites that don't link out at all, and there is no data available to seoMoz for the sites, some like http:// regal - diving dot com (trying not to get moderated AGAIN Innocent need to show which link and its a competitor kind of) are not linking to anyone else just internal links. How come they dont show info to SEOMOZ Should I link out from home page, is this detrimental does ANY single link from home page show google that I am not a PROPER web business. thanks

Toolset Q.) Re. Linkscape - How is the External Links (link juice) calculated in the API?
Re. External Links (link-juice) - I really need to know what this reflects.Ie. linkdiagnosis.com divides the PR by external link factors to get an idea of link juice or power - how does Moz calculate this scoring?
