If i have 6 posts in a niche site, i want each one to rank for separate keyword. Should i internal link all of them together?
-
I have the following posts
- X + Word-1 + Y
- X + Word-2+ Y
- X + Word-3 + Y
- X + Word-4 + Y
- X + Word-5 + Y
- X + Word-6 + Y
Should i internal link them all to each other? I want each post to rank for its keyword
-
Yes absolutely.
I'm sorry if my answer wasn't clear on that point but yes it's almost always better for rankings to have more internal links pointing to pages and if it's better for users too, then it's the best move all around.

It will be useful for users but Is it better for SEO to rank these keywords?
-
If it makes sense to a site visitor that you would be linking these articles together, then the answer for sure is yes.
Adding internal links from each of these pages to each other will help pass the PageRank around your site. Furthermore, if you use keywords in the anchor text, you could help the linked-to pages to be more relevant for those keywords.
I would suggest testing using a few variations of each keyword as the anchor text. For example, use the exact phrase as the anchor text from page B, C, D, E and F linking to page A and monitor your ranking for that phrase after all the changes on all the pages have been indexed by Google. Then change the anchor text on pages D, E and F to some variation of the main keyword. Once all those changes have been indexed by Google see if your ranking for the main phrase is better or worse off and also check to see if you rank better for the variations that you used on pages D, E, and F.

Best way to get more keywords to rank
I have a flash site and have been very successful at getting my keywords that are in my site title and also in the text of my page to rank well. What is the best way to get additional keywords to rank without increasing the text on your page. Is it just getting more anchor-text backlinks pointing your site with the new keywords in the text?

Is it Better to Link to an Article or Post it on my Site?
I have a client who has a few articles written about her and posted on different news-related sites. She has asked me to capture these articles (we have permission) and create a section on her site for them. My question is this... From an SEO standpoint, would it be better to link _to the _articles, post them on her site or both? Or, maybe there's an even better way I'm not thinking of. Your advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kirk

New links for Internal Anchor Text
If pages get moved and 301s are in place is it still important to update the anchor text links to the new page url? For example would it be optimal to go through old blog posts and change the urls for the anchor text if the old anchor text url redirects to the new page url.
