How is the Maximum Link Depth determined?

Question: How is the Link Depth determined for the ‘Maximum Link Depth’ option?

Answer: The ‘Link Depth’ is the same as the number of ‘clicks’ it would take you to access a page on a site from the Root URL. For example, if you were able to access a page by clicking once from the Root URL page, it would be at depth 1. If you need to click 2 links to access a page, it would be at depth 2.
