Content Internal Linking ?

[welcomecure]

Should we internally link new content to old content using anchor tags (keywords) related to pages from all new blogposts or should be keep rotating the blogposts like link from some blog posts & not from others. What ratio should we maintain. Right now i keep 2 links maximum from a 300 words posts or 3 in 500 words posts maximum. But linking from each new blog posts will be good?

I dont see any problem with internal linking.

Just keep it natural and dont go crazy with it.

I dont look at it with ratios. It's impossible to have too much phrases to have the possibility to link to other relevant content on your site unless you force the keyword phrases in.

Just link to what can help your readers. Not just to force it.

Hi,

I think internal linking to 'relevant' content is a must-do, because it is great for both human visitors as well as helps with improving accessibility of content for search engines.

My suggestion is to not focus too much on ratios as Dennis has suggested above. Identify and link to relevant content; don't over-do the number of links.  Similarly with anchor text, mix and match the terms/ phrases you choose to hyperlink.

Best,

Manoj
