      Greetings Mozzers,

      When ever I check my home page on OSE it says I have a total of 5 internal links. Obviously this is WAY off.

      I've used all relative links, if I were to removed all relative and make them absolute, would there be a better chance of OSE identifying them instead of losing that juice?

      I think this is huge to resolve as when I compare my site to competitors, almost all factors are in our favor except this huge gap of only 5 internal links.

      I'm using Drupal CMS. For example, Drupal normally outputs internal links as "/about" and "/about/team" in the menus. If we changed it to "https://monsterweb.net/about", and "https://monsterweb.net/about/team", would that make a difference?

      Thanks for all the advice and clarification on this matter.
