Why Use a Website Link Count Tool?
In SEO, the quantity and quality of links on a page—also known as Outbound Links (OBL)—play a significant role in how search engines crawl and value your content. This Website Link Counter allows you to audit the link density of any specific page by analyzing its raw HTML source code.
Understanding Link Limits
While Google officially removed the "100 links per page" limit years ago, it remains a best practice to keep outbound links reasonable. A page with 500+ links (like a mega-menu or a spammy directory) dilutes the "Link Juice" (PageRank) passed to each individual destination. By using this tool, you can ensure your navigation and content links are within a healthy range.
Internal vs. External Ratios
Internal Links: These keep users on your site and help bots discover your deep content. A healthy page usually has more internal links (navigation, footer, related posts) than external ones.
External Links: Linking out to authoritative sources builds trust. However, if you are linking out to hundreds of different domains, it might look like a link farm. This tool helps you visualize that balance instantly.
Nofollow Detection
Finding hidden "nofollow" tags is crucial. If you are selling a guest post or exchanging links, you need to verify that the link is Dofollow (passing equity). If this counter shows a high number of Nofollow links where you expected Dofollows, you may need to audit your plugins or theme settings.
