Computed from every page at build time
The link map
What links to what — and, more usefully, what does not.
What the site's own writing points at
Counted from links written into a page's body — the navigation bar, the footer and the breadcrumb are all excluded, and that exclusion is the whole measurement. Chrome is on every page by construction and a breadcrumb is written from the page's own path, so counting either would make this table say "the home page" on every site that has ever existed.

Pages nothing links to
Counted the other way round: here every link counts, chrome and breadcrumbs included, because the question is whether a reader can get to the page at all rather than whether anybody recommended it. A crawler reaches these from the sitemap and a reader effectively never. This is how a wing quietly rots — the fan zone's own front door sat in that state for months, and nothing noticed because nothing was counting.

None.
Pages that link nowhere
A reader who arrives from a search has nothing to press but Back. Chrome and breadcrumbs do not count here: a page whose only way onward is the navigation bar is a dead end in the sense that matters, even though a crawler can leave it.

What this report leaves out
Pages that carry noindex are skipped entirely — the operator tools. A page that has
asked crawlers to ignore it should not be listed in the site's own index either, and reporting one
as an orphan would file a correct state as a defect, which is how a findings page trains people to
stop reading it.
Links to pages that are not there
An in-site link whose target does not exist on disk. This list should be empty, and the build says so out loud when it is not.
None. Every in-site link on every page resolves to a file that exists.
This index is generated from the site's own pages at build time — their titles, their descriptions and their links. Nothing on it is typed by hand, so a page that is renamed or removed is renamed or removed here too.
