Each part and action that occurs in it, when performed properly, has a deeper meaning.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unless of course you just link back randomly.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today we\u2019ll be talking about why you should link back to your specific product and service pages.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s start off with our Keywords. <a href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.oom.com.sg\/choosing-your-keywords-carefully\/\"><strong>Choosing keywords to target mostly begins with determining what your products and services are<\/strong><\/a> and later on, deriving your keywords from those. So ideally, why not link back to those pages when you do build links later on? Most of the links we see back then were mostly going back to the home page only. And that\u2019s not entirely a bad thing, most times you do need to go and link to the main page of your site. This leads the searcher to the main section of your website and gives more strength to the home page. Linking back to the home page itself makes the site as a whole, in a way, more related to these terms and keywords.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only problem here is that, if you do this way too much, you will be forcing your searcher to go to a page that can be very far from what he or she was previously reading. Imagine reading <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c..where you should be buying the best sets of cell phone cases in Singapore\u201d <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">then it links back to the home page where you would still need to navigate your way to the part where that specific product is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13309\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.oom.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/giphy-3.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s the whole problem of linking back to just the home page all the time. Doing this will just force the searcher or visitor to go through every page of your site just to find a specific product or service. If in case you\u2019re actually after the branding part and making sure you get to introduce the website to a greater number of people, linking back to just the home page is okay. But for specific keywords like that\u2019s centered on specific services and products, nope. It\u2019s a waste of effort. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s say you have specific keywords you plan to rank on. If you have landing pages that\u2019s directly relevant to those terms, it\u2019s a logical move that you utilize them \u00a0when you do your link building. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why is this so? Because of relevance. Remember why relevance is a good thing? The more relevant your keyword and link is to the topic or literal search term, the better chances you\u2019ve got on ranking and if you\u2019re super lucky, be featured on one of those expandable featured snippets. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you do get the time to do so as well, check with tools that get the rankings of your keywords. Most of them will have a feature that includes which landing pages your keywords are ranking with. Here you will find that specific service or product related keywords are ranking directly with pages they\u2019re derived from. Google is already doing this and using relevant pages to rank keywords with. So instead of going against the flow, why not use that force to your advantage?<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another benefit of linking back to your service and product pages is if you do this, you will easily direct your target audience to a specific service or product, ready for purchase. Why let them wander around your site if you can already send them straight to what they want to see and purchase? Sure, having traffic to the site is a good thing. But you also will <a href=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/seo-ux-success-286638\"><strong>need to balance out the experience that they will get<\/strong> <\/a>once they decide to go and try to purchase a product or service from you.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always try to vision what your audience\u2019s behaviour and response would be when you create these links. Are you sure that you will be sending them to where you want them to go? or are you just baiting them to go to a certain page. Thinking about the SEO side of things is one thing. But thinking about your audience is another.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a certain level of artistry when you think about how link building works.
