No internal followed links

[jontarbuck]

My site shows no internal followed links in OSE, but each page on my site has internal links, including to the domain itself - jonnyt.me.

Any idea why this might be and how I could fix it?

Hi Jon,

It looks like to me the Roger Mozbot didn't' scrape your complete site but just a couple of pages. So that's why some pages don't show up in OSE as internal followed links. However, I found this URL in OSE which seems to show a number of internal followed links.
So I won't stress to much about it

Hope this helps!

Hi

You do in-fact have internal Followed links and its just a matter of changing the "pages to" field in OSE

Dont ask me why, but when choosing "to this page" nothing gets displayed. When you choose "pages on this root domain" all internal links are displayed.

The selection that works includes all variations of URL's that point to jonnyt.me and not just URL's pointing to jonnyt.me in that makes any sense..

Show > ALL > from > ONLY INTERNAL > to > PAGES ON THIS ROOT DOMAIN >

That makes it even more complicated... Well spotted Martijn

Based on were the majority of your links are currently pointing, you need to choose which to go with and redirect the other.

jonnyt.me

jonnyt.me/index.html

These are duplications which you need to sort out.  (I suggest redirecting jonnyt.me/index.html to jonnyt.me/)

Thanks for that Greg - so you recommend redirecting all links to the root domain? Any chance you could explain why that's good - sorry, I'm new around here!

[AndreVanKets]

No no...

Don't redirect all your links, just do it once to one URL

http://jonnyt.me/index.html

Redirect To

http://jonnyt.me

Once you have redirected, jonnyt.me/index.html wont load, but instead will redirect to jonnyt.me

If you know of any links that are pointing to  "jonnyt.me/index.html" change them to point to "jonnyt.me "

If you cant find any, dont worry about it, when google or a user clicks on jonnyt.me/index.html, they will be taken to the correct page.

I hope this makes more sense.

Thanks Greg, can't find any links that point to http://jonnyt.me/index.html now, think these were old links I had. Thanks for the advice!
