Hi All,

I’ve been using HubSpot’s SEO tool for quite some time now. I couple weeks ago, I noticed that the majority of our internal links were red - indicating there was no link from the subtopic/blog page to the pillar. However, all the links previously worked and I confirmed that none of them are broken. I’m curious as to why the SEO tool is no longer recognizing our internal links from blog to pillar. I’ve reached out to support and they’re still digging into the issue.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Hi @HDasher,

Thanks for reaching out to the Community!

I wanted to refer you to this [help documentation](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/seo/validate-an-external-url-in-the-seo-tool) on validation errors in the SEO Tool. I would also suggest taking some time to review [this article](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/content-strategy/validate-internal-links-between-subtopic-keyword-content-and-pillar-pages) to ensure the links are validated correctly.

In regards to the domains the content is hosted on:

1) Ensure the Pillar and Subtopic pages are on the same subdomain  
2) Ensure the Pillar Page’s URL is on the subtopic page and on the same subdomain

I’d also invite you to continue partnering with Support on this as they will be faster at resolving this (as they have context into the specifics) and they have access to internal tools to help troubleshoot this.

Thank you

Best,

Kristen
