What is an Orphan Page?

Home / Glossary / G / What is an Orphan Page?

An orphan page is a webpage on a website that doesn't have any internal links pointing to it from other pages on the same site. As a result, orphaned pages are not easily discoverable by users or search engines, which can negatively impact their visibility and SEO performance.

Orphan pages can occur when new content is added to a site but not properly linked to other pages or when older content is no longer connected to the main site structure. Without internal links, orphan pages may have difficulty being indexed by search engines, which can hinder their ranking in search results. It's important to ensure that all relevant pages are properly linked within the website to improve SEO and user navigation.
