Interal linking

Re: I'm stuck by internal linking.
What structure should a football website follow? Silo or Topic Cluster?
I need advice on my website. My website: https://tipbongda247.net/
I hope there are answers!
Thanks -
Also I am having difficulties on internal links (and also on speed ...), also because when the pages grow in number, even if you had an initial strategy it becomes more and more difficult to follow it.
I would like to apply them as they do on this site that I am monitoring:

@JoelX Thanks for the tips. I'm going to apply these to my site. One other question - for a site where I have a page like https://guruseoservices.com/seo-services/ and then I want to create a page per city should I create this structure maintaining a flat URL structure --> /%city%-%state/province%-seo-services page or shift to a more siloed structure such as /%state%/%city%/%service% structure?

@joelx said in Interal linking:
@thanhdung0906 For your site, I would suggest going with Silo as this will give you more flexibility to have a well optimized internal linking structure on your website.
Silo Content structure will also make it easier for the Google bots to crawl and index your website more efficiently, as well as help users to follow the clear path which will ultimately improve the website usability.@SeanAliGrowME You can definitely try to create some great blog posts around the topic or services you offer and include internal links to the Calgary SEO landing page. You can also try to create some internal linking from the different pages like Our Story, Digital Marketing, etc.
@honorway The best approach to handle the internal linking for a larger website is using Google Analytics and Search Console data. We would recommend checking through the GA and GSC data to identify the pages that are driving traffic to the website. Once you have the list of these pages, you can create internal links to the lower performing pages on your higher traffic pages.
For page load speed, I can see the website is on Wordpress so I would recommend removing the plugins that are not in use, get a CDN and make use of the plugins like WPRocket that will help you improve the page load speed.Thank you, actually there are many plugins installed, it would be better to try to delete some of them

I know that many use the internal linking strategy to encourage and increase visits to less strong pages, but I don't know how to do it. If anyone has any suggestions, I would like to apply them as they do on this site that I am monitoring: https://www.ilcamminodisantiago.net/ -
This is interesting. I am currently updating my internal links. Hey fellow mozers, care to answer the OP's question.
Also any suggestions for my page https://growmemarketing.ca/calgary-seo/? What would be the best internal linking strategy for the page?
Thank you

Via this intermediate link?
I'm doing some work on an ecommerce site for an electronics distributor and I've been seeing these "Via this intermediate link" notations from GWT under our "Links To Your Site" section. I understand how and why these notations would normally be displayed, however, these links are mainly coming from our direct competitors. Fearing that we might be a victim of a negative SEO attack, I looked into the situation and noticed that all of the links are from PDF's (technical data sheets) provided by the manufacturer that both we and our competitors use on our product detail pages. This still seems odd to me because, we download these pdf's and host them on our own site on our own servers under a completely different name (as I'm assuming our competitors do as well), yet, there still seems to be a connection between our sites through these PDF's. I've included a screenshot of some examples. Since we have thousands of SKU's on our site - with technical PDF's for nearly all of them - we're seeing a lot of links from competitors sites. I'm not sure if this is good or bad, I'm just trying to understand the situation more clearly. Has anyone had any similar experiences or some information from Google that might explain what I'm seeing here? fpWvB5T

What To Focus On SEO / Link Building for this campaign to rank again..
Hi All; I recently joined Moz and I am really starting to learn a lot here. I am still finding it difficult to figure out what to focus on the most to improve my rankings (although I do have some page 1 ranks) I have one strong competitor who has a SOLID spot in the top 5 of google for the past few years for the keyword I would like to be ranked for again. (as they have always been a competitor of mine either 1 spot above or 1 spot below). then i fell off google in January and finally made it back to page 1. But their links are thousands higher than mine. What parts of my SEO Link Building should I focus on the MOST to improve my ranking to move up a few spots? Followed links vs No Followed Links Followed Linking Root Domains vs NoFollowed Linking Root Domain Any help would so greatly be appreciated; also please explain why you would focus on that part of my campaign so I can better understand as well. Thanks again

What type of links to focus on...
Hi all Having just built a new site, I'm now looking at how best to SEO it. In past years, I gave into the temptation to outsource the backlinking altogether. For this project though, I am taking a much more hands on approach: I am either writing or working with good content writers I am posting to Twitter + FB more regularly With regards to backlinks, I am being much more specific as to how I go about it. I want to remain very niche specific and use only trustable sites. The question I have though, is how to know how to split the backlink types? I've looked at competitors using LinkDetective, but cannot seem to work out any common denominators. Some have more blogs than articles, while others have a lot of 'unknown' types (according to LinkDetective) If you're starting from scratch, what do you aim for? If you're aiming to build 100 backlinks (hypothetically), how would you decide on the breakdown (e.g. 20% blogs, 20% articles etc) Do Panda or Penguin updates this year influence choice? Thanks!

How does OSE count Total Links?
I'm trying out Market Samurai & OSE for gauging SEO competition. When I try both the tools for giving backlink count for a specific page then I'm seeing remarkable difference. Hence I need to know how OSE calculates "Total Links" for a page & how can we be sure that it is true?

Question regarding back link analysis and anchor text
Hello, I am looking at my competitors back link analysis and comparing a range of link based metrics from the top 10 SERPS. I am then putting this data into excel and comparing our back link profiles. When looking at the anchor text distribution i am not sure whether to look at exact match anchor or phrase match anchor. For example, one of the companies I am looking at holds positions 3 and 4 in the SERPS. Looking at their linking profile I can see that only 1.7% of their links use the exact match anchor 'widget'. Looking at their phrase match anchor is an entirely different story, 93.5% of anchor links contain 'widget' somewhere. i.e. 'cheap widgets', 'widget sale', 'buy widgets at www.examplewidget.co.uk' etc. Obviously their exact match and phrase match anchor distribution tell a completely different story. THIS IS TRUE FOR MANY OF THE TOP 10 SERPS. Therefore, should I be looking at phrase match anchors instead of exact? Side note: would people recommend targeting anchors with 'brandname widget' based on predictions of Google giving weighted anchor more weight. Robert.

In Open Site Explorer, what does it mean when a linking page does not contain any reference to the URl entered?
When running Open Site Explorer on a particular URL, I get a list of linking pages. Many of these pages have a high Page Authority. I am assuming that this is a list of pages that presumably link to the URL I entered. First, is this correct? Next, when I click on an entry in the list I don't see any reference to the URL on the page, even viewing the page source. What does this mean and why is the link in the list?
