If you have built high quality internal backlinks for your site? Compared with the external backlinks, internal backlinks are quite simple but very powerful, sometimes even lead to more obvious results than building millions of external backlinks.
Internal backlinks concludes tag backlinks, posts backlinks, categories backlinks and so on. Usually, as to my experience, Google would index these backlinks very soon if your site properly optimized.
So the internal linking is also important for gaining overall high pagerank. In your website design, you should try and have a text link back to your homepage from every page of your site. Many sites use Flash and Java navigation and they look great from the user point of view, but their internal pages do not get spidered easily; so you should always include a text link to other pages, preferably using relevant anchor text containing relevant keywords.
Internal page link also has page rank even if it is no external links. This page rank is considered by internal backlinks. When you optimize your website, try to have text link to your home page from every page of your site. Hence, internal links are counted for backlinks and is contributed for page rank.
As per me internal linking basically means linking all your pages within your site. so link your pages from different pages. what most people does is external linking- linking from a different site.
A lot of popular CMS's even have plugins or addons that allow you to setup automatic internal linking rules
Hi, Internal backlinks are also important but not as much as external backlinks. Many sites are using images or flash for internal linking it looks good but it is a SEO killer so, instead of having images or flash use simple text links or anchor text link for internal linking.
To begin with, here's why internal backlinks are important: 1. They make the navigation through your website easy for both users and search engines. 2. They give you a chance to showcase your best stuff. If you're a blogger, for example, you can direct your readers to your previous relevant posts. 3. They let you influence your user's behavior at your website. E.g.: user lands on a long persuasive copy, then you direct them to shopping cart through internal links. 4. From the SEO point of view, internal links with your keywords as anchors make your website contextually more relevant for these keywords. Webmasters would often have these keyword-rich links in the header, footer or side menu. All in all, I wouldn't be too excited about the extreme importance of internal backlinks for SEO and better use them to improve your users' website navigation experience.
