Internal Linking
-
Okay, if I write 10 different articles on my site that are related to one of my products. Can I safely have a link in every article to my product?
-
I would do one time on a page.

Hi Azguy
If you were to write an article and the written content contained huge amounts of links out then it can become less legible (depending on the styling used for hyperlinks) so from a usability perspective I wouldn't recommend that.
As the other responders suggest if you are just adding a few links to the article then that is sensible from an SEO standpoint but is also helpful to the website visitor who may naturally be interested in the product or service you mention in the article. Without the link they may have to go looking for the product/service page themselves whereas providing them easier access to the product makes a conversion more likely

Definitely. Use good consistent anchor text! Helps determine relevancy and importance of the product page!
-
How many times in a paragraph that contains the phrase "putting accuracy" should you be linking ? Just once, or for every mention of the phrase ?
-
Thanks, that's what I thought.
-
This is a smart thing to do.
-
Yes
If you have the x1000 Pro Golf Club that increases putting accuracy, then every time you talk about putting accuracy in any article you can link to the page. It is a perfectly common and recommended practice.
The most common example I can think of is wikipedia. You will notice anytime you type a phrase which is the name of another wiki page the anchor link is automatically created.

Linking back to the homepage im trying to rank - Using exact match anchor? Linking from footer?
Hello, Our site is an basically advertisements / listings website. Structure is as following <last 200="" adds=""> (homepage trying to rank) < category 1 > < category 1 > < category 1 > < category 1 > < category 1 ></last> My question - each of the categories links back within the menu back to homepage. The link text currently is last 200 adds. Can i use exact match anchor? Or should i use just last 200 ads? The issue is that one of my categorys (category 1) has already the exact match anchor im trying to rank for. So i can not use the same to link back to homepage. Im worried that google does not see any exact keyword anchor texts back to homepage hence will rank my homepage with lower strenght for that keyword . Im also worried that the category 1 page might now compete with the main homepage for this word (even tho at the moment category itself does not rank for this keyword) Can i link from footer back to homepage with an alternative keyword then to give some "context" to google more? Would this be spamming?

Does Google Analytics' Enhanced Link Attribution cause any SEO problems?
We are looking to implement Google Analytics Enhanced Link Attribution on our site. Our tech person says that this will cause SEO problems because of "duplicate URLS." I am not technical, so I don't understand this at all and can't find any research on the topic. I would like to know if there are any known SEO problems caused by putting in Enhanced Link Attribution.

Ratio follow/nofollow outbound links
Dear all, So far, I couldn't find any satisfying answer to my problem - I hope you might be able to help: Due to the fact that our website consists of user-generated content, we've got many many outbound links to other sites. Until now, it was possible to assign a follow-attribute to these links. In the ages of "pandas" however, we realised we had to limit this possibility as well as the amount of outbound follow links already published. My question now is whether there is some kind of rule of thumb as to what ratio of outbound follow and nofollow links is advisable. I'd appreciate any ideas or comments. Thanks a lot!

Too many On-Page Links warning + Javascript Menu
We do have javascript menus on each page. These are used by a visitor to contact a specific office in a specif city. Could this be where all these links are being counted? I don't see them elsewhere? What about links that are in the footer? They actually link to the same pages as the menus, but are just straight links.

Too many on-page links
Hi, My website - www.thepartyhouse.com.au is showing as having too many on-page links for over 4,000 pages. Take for example the homepage which is showing as 188 links, but I don't understand this because I've used SEO tools to display the links and I am showing around 90 links on this page. How can I see what all the links are? Thanks
