Are there any hard rules about internal linking of homepage?

[vtmoz]

Hi all,

Usually we link homepage from all pages. That's definitely a boost for homepage to rank well. Do we need to interlink homepage to the highest? Including links from subdomains or sub directories.

Thanks

Linking to the homepage from every page would only be natural. From subdomains and subdirectories, it won't be bad to link to your main sub's home, depending on the content of these pages. What do you mean by "interlink homepage to the highest"?

"interlink homepage to the highest": I mean do we need to link homepage from highest number of pages? This is something we can see from "Internal links" in Google search console. I just wonder if you link to other pages more than to homepage.
