Internal Linking - Post links vs Side Bar Links behaving differently
-
Hi,
I have a question regarding the internal linking behavior. My website is www.hindimeaning.com which is approx 3 years old. I have approx 450 posts.
Now i have a widget on right sidebar "Popular posts". A widget below my posts "Related Posts". And a simple html CSS menu above the posts (I removed menu around 6 month before so currently it will not show.)
I crawled my site with moz crawler (same are the result from google crawler as well) and it shows menus links as internal links. While sidebar widget "Popular posts" and "Related Posts" are not showing as internal links.
If we talk theoretically what i learn till now is "every link on a page behaves as internal link". Then why the widget links are not showing as internal links.
Thanks,
Mahesh Kumar

well some of them are and your navigation which obviously should contain internal URLs does contain internal URLs. I am sending a screenshot of one of your widgets and a look at the actual URL which is an internal URL as your other widgets contained the same domain "hindimeaning.com" they are internal URLs as well.
here is a screenshot below of your entire home page sorry if it looks strange my browser is dragged pretty wide.
Regardless it looks like you using a Genesis 1 framework is this correct?
Go into appearance then widgets you will see the URLs and be able to modify them to your liking.
So far I have not seen external URLs meaning from another domain.
I hope this is helpful,
Thomas

Yes...my widgets contains URLs but still they are not appearing as internal links. why?
-
popular posts and related posts are dynamic so they would not show up as URL's when you say widgets
you mean the widgets containing the URLs that make up most of the website as I have only seen two pages but they look very similar.
this Would not allow me to click on the other URL until after the video that's what the second link is for
your widgets contain URLs
could you please rephrase the question and take note that the code I looked at is not ideal.

Links on the same keyword
When is linking from one particular keyword to much. At what point could link building from one keyword be considered spam and potentially delist a site ? Is it possible for a site to be delisted for having to many links from the same keyword ? Heard linking from the website name is more important following recent changes. I try and link from a selection of 3 to 4 keywords. Thanks for your help

Internal Linking for Newspaper Websites
Now, there are a number of do's and dont's when it comes to internal linking, but do those rules apply to news websites that have to interlink relevant news stories, primarily based on their relevancy to the user and the value that they have to provide rather than keeping the idea of page rank sculpting in mind? What's your take on this?
