How to view all 'followed internal links' on a page
-
I am trying to view all the followed internal links on a few pages of my website.
The MOZ toolbar just gives me the total number of internal followed links. What is the best way to actually see all the internal links that are followed by the google bot from any particular page?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jon
Thanks for your response. The MOZ bar seems to work weirdly for me:
There are certain links on my page that are present in Javascript, and are not being crawled - they don't show up in the source code, and I also checked the same using Screaming frog.
These links are relatively low importance, and I don't want the search engines to crawl them, which is why I'm fine with them being left in Javascript.
The pencil icon in the Moz Bar highlights, and shows these links as 'followed internal links'. Not sure if this is how it should be - should these not be detected at all (they are present in unparsable JS, and do not show up in the source code either!)
Look forward to your response here.
Regards

Ahh I sent you a link to a site that explores those links and creates a list, I thought you needed it to build a list.
The tool I use for my browser is SearchStatus by Quirk, its for firefox and it does some amazing stuff

We are actively using moz tool bar and found out one more great feature of it.

Hey!
The MozBar allows you to see the followed links on the actual page itself. If you hit the Pencil icon, and choose 'Followed', the MozBar will overlay all followed links on a page with a highlight.
Does that solve you problem?
Thanks!

There is a great plugin for chrome called Nofollow which outlines nofollow links and also detects nofollow and noindex robots meta tags on webpages.
It automatically adds a dotted line round any links which are no followed, as you can see in the screen shot below on Gary's link.

There are lots of tools out there, the one I use is http://www.webseoanalytics.com/free/seo-tools/link-structure.php
It will give you a full breakdown of each url, if it is dofollow/nofollow and what anchor it is using.
Very helpful.

my site has 17.5m Total links according to Moz (16.6m internal follow & 840k no follow) i think i have a problem...
We are hosted by visual soft and it is a proprietory platform so we dont have full control of our site.

in comparison, 3 of our main competitors, two of which are way way bigger than us have 1.4m & 4.7m - another one still probably double or perhaps triple our size is @ 2.5m Should i worry?
Should i post my website url on here?
I would like to start working on canonical links on my site but not sure where to start, does moz pro have some sort of check or rating, i have no idea if even the basics mentioned in the tutorials have been done....

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!

Too many outbound links on a page?
We have a "Clients" page on our site with approximately 125 of our clients listed. We have a link to each client's website, so that's 125 links. I am rethinking this approach. Is there any value to having these outbound links? The SEOmoz PRO analysis tells me I have too many links on this page. I have read that more than 100 links on a page is too many, but that seemed to be referring to internal links. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Followed seomoz advice for on page tweaks but dropped
Hi all We followed seomoz advice regarding on-page tweaks for this page: http://www.compactlaw.co.uk/agency-agreement.html Dropped 10 places by Google UK. Obviously could be a coincidence, but any on-page critique very gladly received. (But also seem to have been dropped by Google across the board in the past week or so. Usual trouble of trying to find causes. But specific page advice would be a start and much appreciated.) Regards P

My website is saying I have duplicate page content and page title. How do I fix it?
Hi, I created a website on webstarts.com. After I launched it then ran a scan through SEO it says I have duplicate page content and page title. The 2 pages it is reading are technically the same page. www.mobilemowermedicsinc.com and www.mobilemowermedicsinc.com/index . I am unsure how to get rid of on of these as it keeps saying this is an error in the SEO scan. Could someone please advise me of what to do from here. Thanks!

I am optimizing my webpages according to suggestions from the On Page Report Card. Should I have more than one keyword for a page?
I am optimizing my webpages according to suggestions from the On Page Report Card. Should I have more than one keyword for a page or should I make separate pages for each keyword even when they are similar? Will Google penalize me for making similar pages? Imagine selling, bargain milk chocolate peanut clusters. Keywords examples could be: Bargain chocolate Bargain milk chocolate Bargain milk chocolate peanut clusters Bargain chocolate peanut clusters Chocolate peanut cluster bargains Milk chocolate peanut cluster bargains Etc. Will one page called http://mycompany/bargainmilkchocolatepeanutclusters.com be OK or should I have one called http://mycompany/bargainmilkchocolate.com and one called http://mycompany/bargainmilkchocolatepeanutclusters.com and one called http://mycompany/chocolatepeanutclusterbargains.com , etc.? Thanks for your advice.

Why home page ranks higher than keyword-optimized page
We have a page that is optimized for the keyword "job scheduling". A search on the keyword "job scheduling" results in this page not ranking at all, while our home page (uc4.com) ranks third. Could you provide some ideas/suggestions as to why this would be the case and how to make our job scheduling page rank higher? Thanks, claudia

Are duplicate titles an issue for pages I don't need ranking for?
A client has a load of duplicate page titles on their site. However, to cut a long story short, most of these pages are pointless and therefore we don't need ranking for them. As such, I'm not concerned whether any of the pages with duplicate content on them are ranked or not..... unless having duplicate page titles / content on these pages could mean that other pages on the site, like the homepage, don't rank as high because of this. Do I need to worry about duplicate titles on these pages, or can I ignore duplicate content on pages that I don't want to be ranked? Hope that makes sense!
