Over the past month or so I’ve been trying to link more within my blogs. I run Blogtown Press and with that many blogs I have to write a lot. Which leaves little time for promoting my posts and getting links elsewhere.
So what I’ve been doing, and noticing that it helps, is linking around. After all, websites are stores of information and if your blog is a narrow enough niche your readers will most likely want more information than what they came for. Why hide it then. Link around and allow your users to read more of your posts and increase your pageviews and increase the potential for your readers to read something worth linking to.
An added bonus of these links within your blog is that you create more links for search engine spiders, those little creatures that help Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft know that you exist, to see more of your pages more often. You’ll also start seeing an increase in the Google Link results for your pages.
Although most think that having these types of links don’t rank as high as an outside link, every little bit counts as you try and build your content and links on your way to higher Google search ranking. There are of course more ways to get outside links but inside links will help too. (See now wasn’t that easy)
