You're most welcome, KyleAnn. Kudos for reading this training piece! Yes, incoming internal links redirect readers back to other pages on your blog while outgoing internal links redirect visitors to pages outside your blog and building internal links are instrumental for SEO and ranking.

Thanks for your contribution!

So, Israel, how many internal links do you recommend for each post? Will one or two do it?

You're most welcome on board, FKelso. Thanks for reading this training piece! Yeah, there are two major types of internal links: the incoming internal links & the outgoing internal links & you're going to need to add between 5-10 of these to every 1200+ words post. This will ensure that for those pages that rank well, the link juice can be passed on to the weak ones. Thanks for asking!

Thanks Israel. Wondered what the ideal number of internal links was. Most of my posts have only 1 or 2. I will go through and add a few more. Would it help to have more than 1 or 2 external links per post, or is this enough? Tom

Thanks so greatly, ecomtom! Kudos for reading this training! As a good measure to boost SEO for your industry websites, you need to add incoming and outgoing internal links and these should be about 5-10 per 1200+ words post. The SEMRush tool should also be leveraged as this has many great features such as the Site Audit feature that will facilitate your overall site audit. Thanks for contributing!
