      I am curious, what is the best way to link things from an SEO perspective

      1. Full Path; http://yoursite.com/links/alink/

      2. Absolute Path /links/yourlink/

      3. Relative Path ../yourlink/

      Just curious if there has been any quantifiable data on this.

      Thanks

      Zach

        Many people argue for Full Path, so that if your content gets scraped you still have your entire URL there and end up getting links to your site.
