Internal Linking (The Underutilized SEO Powerhouse)

Internal linking for an SEO is truly a hidden gold mine. Content strategy often fails to consider the power & really necessity of intentionally internally linking to past content.

In simple terms, when Google crawls your site, if can (given no external or backlinks from other sites) assume that if YOU’RE not linking to a piece of content, that it’s of little or no value to you.

If you want a piece of content to rank, it should have links from other pieces of content on your site.
