Correct answer: The proportion of internal URLs on your site that don’t have errors..
Why this is the answer
The Ahrefs Health Score represents the percentage of internal URLs on your site that are free of errors. It's a quick metric to gauge the overall technical SEO health of your website. A higher score indicates fewer critical issues like broken pages, redirects, or other crawlability problems that can negatively impact search engine rankings and user experience. The total number of external backlinks is a different metric (referring to a site's backlink profile), and the proportion of external URLs without errors is not what the Health Score directly measures. While Ahrefs does report URLs with warnings, the Health Score specifically focuses on error-free internal URLs.
