Internal linking
Internal linking is the graph of links between a site's own pages.
Why it matters
Links are the graph a crawler traverses. A page linked only from a sitemap is effectively invisible.
How it is measured
Crawl from the home page and check the link depth and inbound link count of a sample from each tier.
