google analytics shows many external links to 1 page

google analytics EXTERNAL LINKS  is showing an un natural number of links to ..caucases.html    yet all coming from weebly     and from my own pages.

also shows internal links to CAUCASES   yet   there are no links.  there may have been in the past, 5 or 6  but   53??     and shows links from pages i just created. and there are no links to CAUCASES  what so ever..

i switched from http to https.     i want to upgrade to get my own domain but not until i have these duff links sortedimageimage

can you shed a light on this ?     regards

I think the domain is "weebly.com" because Google treats subdomains as part of the root domain; in other words a link to that page from on your site would have a the originating domain as Weebly.com because your site is a subdomain of that. That's just a guess, though. Was that every a featured post?

hi.   i think what happened is that i managed to move certain pages up  thus replacing HOME with Caucases or West Africa and others and cos of the switch to https it got GA confused.   its settling down now   as GOOGLE crawls my site.

thank you anyways.   

regards     .  

ps  am thinking to upgrade  to get my own domain.   

its true, u automatically divert pages to the dot com address?

Yes - if you change your site address from a subdomain to a custom domain we automatically forward traffic. Be sure to just change the address and publish again; if you un-publish in between it might not do that.
