		<description>I really wonder if linking to your own content helps in the first place. It would have to be a different domain to get the link benefit.</description>

		<description>This is so true but some SEO experts lately are saying NOT to mix up the keywords and focus on a single keyphrase.  I guess this is if you are in a very competitive market.  I&#039;ve tried both ways and they both seem to work fine.  BTW, I like when Chris said &quot;Be conscious of how you link to other sites in posts&quot;.</description>

		<description>Because first page search engine rankings are critical to generating leads and sales from your website on a daily basis, monitoring these activities has become critical to operating a successful business of any type. We have used both Advanced Web Ranking and Advanced Link Manager from Caphyon for many years across hundreds of websites and do not know of a better product at any cost.</description>

		<description>Yes, that&#039;s a pretty straight forward approach to how links work. Something else to consider -- you may want to switch up the keywords, or anchor text, a bit. So instead of using the anchor text &quot;writing copy that sells&quot; every time you refer to the web page that talks about writing copy that sells, try using other keywords like &quot;writing content that sells&quot;, &quot;written copy that kicks butt&quot; and so on. This way you&#039;ll increase your chances of ranking for other keyword phrases as well. Jeremy raises a good point about search engines being able to infer synonyms, but they don&#039;t catch all of them.</description>

		<description>Thanks for throwing light on the subject of Importance of Linking. When considering internal linking, i also recommend using “inline” linking, in other words, using text links within relevant text, this carries much more value than a footer link&lt;br&gt;Cheers</description>
