Zinn® SEO how-to: Find orphan pages and add internal links

Step by step in Zinn® SEO: Use the link index to find pages nothing links to, and the editor's suggestions to link them.

Find orphan pages and add internal links

Use the link index to find pages nothing links to, and the editor's suggestions to link them.

  1. Open Links — Go to SEO, Links. The Overview tab shows how many links each page receives and gives.
  2. Look at the Orphans tab — Orphans are pages that no other page links to. Search engines and visitors both struggle to find them.
  3. Look at the Dead ends tab — Dead ends are pages that link to nothing else on your site, so a visitor has nowhere to go next.
  4. Add links from the editor — Open a related post. The SEO sidebar suggests pages from your own site to link to, and inserts a link in one click.
  5. Set link rules if you need them — The Link rules tab adds nofollow, sponsored or new-tab attributes to links by site, applied as pages are shown.
