Internal backlinking is a crucial thing when it comes to on-page and off-page SEO. These links play an essential part in increasing your page rank in Google search results. Keeping it in mind, today, as Adgambit, an Internet Marketing Agency, we will tell you six practical tips for internal linking. 

Link within the main content where applicable: The purpose of SEO is to increase your website's ranking. So how do we do that? By expanding each page's rank individually, of course, if you see it from that point of view, internal links within the primary content of your page, in our opinion, offer the most value.        

• Google's behavior is very similar to that of your users when it comes to prioritizing the primary content of your page. Users mostly read the main content and will mostly click on links there. So this technique is beneficial.

Include essential links within the site navigation: Like the links within the page's primary content, links within the header navigation are also beneficial for climbing the top of the page rank ladder. These might not be as robust at passing contextual authority as links within your main content. Still, these links are there on every page of your website, making links within site navigation equally valuable.

• Google will more likely prioritize header links as compared to footer links. However, it doesn't mean you should ignore footer links since the footer is also on every page. Links there are also valuable.

Exploit breadcrumbs logically: Hands down, breadcrumbs are the single most underused internal linking method. It is because breadcrumbs not only make it extensively accessible for users to navigate the site. However, these are also amazingly strong at adding plus 1 to your page rank.

• If you don't believe us, one of Google's employees tweeted about its effectiveness for the search engine's algorithm. So don't forget to apply breadcrumb schema to assure Google fully understands your breadcrumbs and that you can get lush outcomes.

Internally connect to your most valuable content: Rooting to point one, it's easier said than done. The bottom line, it's generally challenging to attract links to your most valuable content due to its commercial nature. So to keep your page's head above water, you must link from the pages that hold the solid authority for the valuable pages that concern your business revenue.

• You can collect relevant authoritative pages to internally link from for free using multiple site explorers on the internet.   

Apply contextually relevant anchor texts to make topical relevance: You should know that Google reads the encircling content of a link as a signal for the context. Furthermore, the link's anchor text provides an even stronger signal for context. See below the properties of your anchor texts.

• Descriptive
• Topically relevant.
• Keyword-rich.
• Natural
• Concise

Regularly analyze internal links for errors: Technical errors within your internal links can give you unwanted page rank leakage. To provide you with an example, you could be downgrading your link equity every time you link to an error 404 URL. So the bottom line is to check for and fix such errors regularly. Adgambit would suggest you do it daily.
