FAQ
How do broken links affect SEO?
Broken links create poor user experience and waste crawl budget. Google may lower page quality scores for pages with many broken links.
What's the ideal internal-to-external link ratio?
There's no strict ratio, but most well-optimized pages have 3-5x more internal links than external links.
Should I use nofollow on external links?
Only for paid links, user-generated content, or untrusted sources. Editorial external links to authoritative sources should be dofollow.
