SEO check

In-page links

Counts the links on the page (<a href> to http or https URLs, ignoring #anchors, mailto:, tel: and javascript:) and splits them into internal and external.

How the result is decided

  • PassBetween 1 and 150 links.
  • WarningNo links at all, or more than 150.

Why it matters

Links are how visitors and crawlers move through a site. A page with no links is a dead end; a page with hundreds of links makes each one less useful.

How to fix it

Link to the most relevant related pages from the content. On link-heavy pages, trim mega menus and footers to what people actually use.

After the fix, open the page’s report and choose Run again to confirm it passes.
