Complete beginner guide: first analysis in 5 minutes

[community]

I'm putting together a quick-start guide for new users. What's the fastest path from zero to actionable insights in LinkJuice?

[Kate M.]

5-minute quick start:

• Open Screaming Frog → crawl your site → Bulk Export → Links → All Inlinks
• Go to linkjuice.buzzmatic.net/app.php and upload the CSV
• Wait for processing (usually under 10 seconds)
• Sort by internal PageRank descending — identify your top 10 hub pages
• Filter for pages with PageRank < 0.3 — these are your underlinked pages
• Check the Orphan Pages tab for pages with zero inbound links

The whole process takes 5 minutes and gives you a clear action list immediately.

Quick tip for anyone confused about orphans: filter out your pagination pages first (URLs with ?page= or /page/2/ patterns). These often show as orphans because the canonical points away from them, but they're not really missing links — they're just correctly de-indexed. Focus the orphan fix on unique content URLs only.

The redirect chain flag has been a goldmine for us. Found 847 internal links pointing to old redirect URLs after a CMS migration. Fixing those took two weeks but the crawl efficiency improvement was massive — Google started finding new content 3x faster based on our GSC coverage reports.
