Outbound links are a type of links that point out to some other websites or blogs from your site.

Outbound links give the search engine a clear concept about your niche because of relevant links. It helps to increase the trust and quality of your site, therefore, multiplying your blog SEO and also offers the best way to be in touch or build a relationship with other bloggers as well.

Few Suggestions For Best Outbound Links

  • Link to resources like Wiki but avoid too many outbound links from the same post.
  • Link to relevant blogs which actually valuable and cover the topic very well.
  • Link to articles having excellent page authority or domain authority.
  • It's good if you are linking to articles which got maximum social media shares.

I've been working on figuring this out and the RSS feeds too. Not technical at all...kinda difficult. lol

Thanks Arjun... I will use this right away! Blessings, Robin

I'll make a note of that, Thank you.

Just have to be careful having too many Outbounds links, first, you want your visitors to stay on the site longer. Secondly, visitors might not return back to your site. Regards Sadie.

Exactly nothing more nothing less

ArjunUllaz informative post about outbound links.

Appreciate the information. I read somewhere that one shouldn't use too many outbound links in one article, because some people will click on the link and not come back. What are your thoughts on this?

Absolutely right. We are not supposed do too many outbound links since it can decrease readability and take away our visitors as well. So it's better to keep few high quality Outbound links and not too many.

Thanks

Nice information Arjun, your blogs are always informative. keep it up.

Thanks alot Shubhangi. ..

Does linking to WA blogs count as linking to an authority site?

when I checked domain authority of WA in moonsy.com it scores 56 out of 100. So overall linking to WA will be good I guess but I don't know exactly will it be countable for WA blogs.

Thank you for checking the authority

Hi Loes - WA itself is an authority site but the blogs is a different thing

Thanks Arjun, interesting insight. I am not at that point yet but when I am I will remember this blog.

All the very best here

The links just grow - when I started I had one now I have 10,000

Wow, thatz great sir

I have actually added now about 70 as in every post I have an outboard link and also recommended links about 10 so the rest have just grown from these
