      Dear members,

      As I understand the importancy of Internal Followed Links I want to increase them for www.ruijters.nl. What I do not understand that Open Site Explorer only counts 5 Internal Followed Links.

      These 5 Internal Followed Links must be the hypelinked images on the homepage? But the website in overall definately has more than 5?

      Any members who van help me out to fix this problem, so www.ruijters.nl can enjopy his linkjuice?

      Best Regards,

      Alain Nijholt

        I think you need to change the settings when you search your site. Please look at the screenshot below. I am seeing over 1,000 internal links to your domain.

          William,

          Thanks but this does not answer my question. I am referring to Internal Followed Links not the Inbound External Links.

          According to Google's Webmaster Tool http://www.ruijters.nl has 213 Internal Links.

          Open Site Explorer only counts 5 Internal Followed Links, why do Google Webmaster Tool and Open Site Explorer do not match?

          Which number is valid? 5 or 213?

          Anybody?

            213 would be more correct. Google WMT just has more power to crawl every inch of your site. WMT also shows more accurate number of links as well. You can try other sites that analyzes backlinks like majesticseo and ahrefs.

            SEOmoz has confirmed they don't waste time crawling every page on the web. A employee from SEOmoz replied to a question earlier this month and stated it is sole due to resources and makes it easier on the user to view links without having so many duplicate links from the same domain, which would be your own domain.

              William,

              Thanks, I also think WMT is more accurate. Unfortunately I cannot find any information about internal links when analyzing http://www.ruijters.nl with majesticseo and ahrefs.

              Do you know where to look?

              Thanks 🙂

                http://ahrefs.com/site-explorer/linked-domains/subdomains/www.ruijters.nl

                Then click on your domain.

                I'm still not exactly sure what you are asking for because if you do an "Inbound Internal Link" on OSE, it will still show your URL as the Inbound link to YOUR domain. Isn't that what you want? Followed links from your internal pages? If that is the case OSE should do it for you.

                Also any reason you need such accurate information? I mean't WMT numbers should be good enough.

                  William,

                  Thanks for the url. I want to know the Internal Followed Links and not the Inbound. But to "clear the air" I have put a printscreen. Stange is is this analysis the number 5 for Ruijters compared to the competitors.

                  What do you think?

                    "Also any reason you need such accurate information? I mean't WMT numbers should be good enough." I need this information to be sure of a good internal link structure and linkjuice purpose.
