Good link building between content is one of the most important aspects of good SEO, we offer some advice below for setting up links when building your website.
Types of links and how to add them to your website
- Inbound links -When adding an inbound link (link to a page within your website) it is really important only to add the section of the link after the website domain (e.g. add /about/ and not www.artlogic.net/about/). The reason for this is that this way the link will open on the same window and it will avoid you adding the wrong domain before going live.
- External links - When adding an external link you should always add the full URL.
