Linking articles to each other
-
I've been using white-hat article marketing to post original content about my niche to credible article directories (yes, I realize many of them were recently devalued).
My question is: Is it a good or bad idea to have future articles link to older articles, as a way to increase the chances of having the older articles indexed, or increasing the amount of link juice they pass to my site (since they point to my site)?
I get 2 links per article and was thinking of using 1 to point to a prior (related) article, and the other to point to my site.

Hi,
thanks for asking a valuable question about interlinking. According to my experience, it's a very good practice to make your all articles linked with one another. And the best one interlinks your articles with your ranked articles because this one make your other articles a boost to rank in search engine.
You should never leave any page orphan you have to link your all posts that make a net of your site. It is just like the Robotic screwdriving systems Because it will boom your work and ranking performance.
Hope it helps

I have heard that a low PR page on a high PR site will gain PR quicly when linked to, and since only the first link is going to point to your site and you have 2 links to play with, why not.

Anything that is human reviewed, has editorial standards, and enforces longer word length. The opposite, which would be sites that accept anything, including posts that are less than 300 words, would not be good.
In the 'good' camp I would include
www.buzzle.com (600 word min)
www.selfgrowth.com (500 word min)
would be interested in hearing from others on which ones they use that are human-edited or otherwise have more strict than post-anything-you-want submission guidelines.

Question about Link Juice
Hi Everyone, I have a couple of articles on which I have some internal links towards other articles. My questions are the following:
Link Building | | anwarjutt90
Are the links in the header menu or the footer of the page take away from the juice of the article by spreading it?
Do the outbound links coming out of my article, do they have any impact on spreading the link juice of my internal links? Thank you in advance for your valuable inputs.0 -

We are moving to HTTPS and wanted to know if our link building efforts were in vain or will the link juice pass to HTTPS?
We are switching to HTTPS and want to make sure the links we've gotten in the past will still transfer since they are pointing to HTTP? I'd hate to go back through and ask people to please add an s to the link.

Getting a sitewide links from one domain as oppsed to few links from certain pages, a good, bad or horrible idea?
Hello, I have a website that is performing really well in Google for country specific Real Estate Website. I have had this site for just about 2 years and I have 4600+ indexed pages, and about 50 of my main keywords appear in top 10 results on Google. I have now started a second site with a brand new domain, its only about 2 months old. This one is a Travel website and again its country specific (same country that real estate website is performing well in) and since its still building up the content and has barely a couple of backlinks, I am thinking of adding a linkback to it from my Real Estate Site. Is it a good idea to add a site wide link back from header section of the real estate website to my travel website? Both sites has same country and most of the keywords in both relate to this country. Or will I be better off adding a few text links from few pages with best Page Authority? Or - do you suggest that I do not link the two at all? Both sites are hosted on different servers, with different IP's and one is on windows server created in asp.net while another is a magento site. Any advidce / insight will be much appreciated and thank you in advance.

Reciprocol Links
Am I correct in stating that linking to every article about your company is a bad idea. I see a lot of sites with followed links to the articles that link to them. Is this not devaluing the link? I've been recommending removing the links or no indexing the page and no following the links. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Pros and Cons of Links in Articles
My question pertains to articles that I'll be submitting to certain article directory sites. What are the pros and cons (If any exists) of adding links to the body of an article for certain keywords vs. just adding a link to the website at the bottom (i.e. visit us at www.somewebsite.com) ?

Link Churn - where have all my links gone?
I am sure most of you have asked yourself the question I'm asking right now.. Where have all my links gone? I am starting to get twitchy now. I would estimate we have lost around 60% of our links in the past 3 weeks. Does anyone have any comeback stories? Feel like I am back to the start again. I have made a number of changes on the site not least removing a reciprical link page.. that had over 200 links on it but from reading one of Rand's tweets is it true that linking out could be good again?
