Is it OK that the root didn't have any internal links?
-
Hi guys;
In a website with more than 20,000 indexed pages, Is it normally that homepage (root) didn't have any internal links, while other important pages have enough internal links?
Consider that in a top menu in header of all pages, I added homepage link, so the home page link repeated on all indexed pages, but google didn't count it
and the website technology is angular js
thank you for helping me

Hello Cafegardesh,
Nope, its not OK to not have any internal links in any page, specially the homepage.
How do you interact with the homepage if it dont have any internal link?
Usually, the home page has a menu that adds those internal links you are referring, or a footer that might acomplish the same purpose.Why you say that Google did not count the link to the homepage? What were you expecting, a bump in traffic, better rankings or something like that?
Also, the technology used to build the web is not a problem here.
If im not answering what you've asker, please respond with more info and i'd help you out

Hi Cafegardesh
The standard way of doing this is to link through the logo which will have the Alt text of the website name. Better all round than having a link saying 'Home'. Either way, it is essential you have this - your home page should naturally be the most linked page on the site.
