Excessive Redirects In
Pages which have more than 30 redirects in from other URLs.
Priority: Medium
Impact: Negative
What issues it may cause
It is unlikely that a large amount of redirects to the same URL are all contextually relevant to the target URL, which may result in any PageRank passed from external backlinks to be ignored.
How do you fix it
The redirects pointing to each page should be reviewed to determine if there is a more relevant redirect target.
What is the positive impact
The overall rankings may be improved by ensuring that all PageRank from backlinks on external sites is maintained.
