Good links pratice for listing pages?

[Alexandre_]

Hello,

I'm wondering which is the best way to handle this kindle of page...

You can have a look at my screen capture, or see directly my page here.

I've in my case, for the same "ski resort", 3 differents anchor link type (title, image and more info…), all of them are going on the same page.

I know it's not that good, my idea, it to keep only the more info like, but with a better anchor link, something like : more information about this ski resort...

Thanks in advance

Best regards

In these sort of circumstances, you want to make the anchor text as enticing as possible because you want someone to click on the link. Something like you said "More information about this Ski Resort" is OK, but is it a little bit long?

"View Ski Resort info"

"More on this Ski Resort"

"View this Ski resort"

Just a few ideas.

Regards,

Andy

Thanks Andy.

I agree, I need to find a good text anchor, the "ski resort" will be remplaced with the name of the station.

But what do you think about to keep only one link? On my page, I've got 4 same link per station to the same page...

There is something of a trade-off here. Whilst the search engines don't really like multiple links, you also have to look at which links most visitors click on.

Have you done a heat map of your pages to see which are the most popular links?

Google only counts the first link instance so more info (if lower in the code) will not pass juice. The only way that I know to have all three links pass juice is to # the links.

Thanks Andy.

I'm checking that point...

Thanks Richard,

I'm not sure to fully understand, if I remove (in my case) the link on the image, and the title of the articles, and make a better "more info" link, it'll be better that what I've got no ?

sorry, text is better. I would not remove any of them. It does not matter which one is clicked on so long as the visitor clicks. Google will only count the first link instance so make sure your anchor text (or image alt text) is using good keywords.

If you really want to see which one is performing, you can use a Google campaign in analytics to track. If you need that information, let me know.

Thanks Richard!

I get it

Does Google divise the PR of my link if some are duplicate? That's why I want to clean up my page..

All juice goes to first link unless you # the link.
