      Hi,

      Is there a real benefit to having internal links in content other than at the bottom of a page for example and not surrounded by content. Would the benefit be 1 to 10 or 1 to 1.5 ?

      Thank you,

        There is great benefit to utilizing internal links well in SEO. They establish site architecture and spread link equity across your site – as well as helping users navigate your site and find useful and relevant information.

        Here's a good post from Moz: https://moz.com/blog/should-seos-care-about-internal-links-whiteboard-friday

        Hope it's helpful!

          Internal links are extremely valuable for making money.

          If you make money from ads they can get you additional pageviews.  We ad internal links to every article that we write - very similar to what Wikipedia does.

          Internal links can help visitors discover more of your content, which can result in links, shares, and more.

          Internal links can improve the engagement metrics that Google collects about your website.

          Internal links can drive sales.  Linking from article pages to retail pages can be a driver of sales.  Lots of websites make their money  by attracting visitors to article pages and then funneling them to retail pages.

            Thank you both for the information. I agree links are very useful especially for competitive keyword but hard to get those days...

            Do you have any advice on how to acquire links these days ?

            Thank you,
