Hello Every one Is internal Linking considered as On-page optimization or off-page optimization? Very confused... plz help me...
Having links pointing towards your site -- internal linking -- is considered off-page optimization to my knowledge.
Hi, Anything you do to the site files on your own site is on-page or on-site. Everything you do outside like link building or articles and so on is off-page or off-site since it is not done to your site directly. At least that is how I explain it when people ask. Not sure if others are using different terminology.
Some definitions OnPO -> on page optimization : It means optimize your pages with h1 tags,meta description,title and links to your own page to get benefit of pr. OffPO -> off page optimization : Usually getting inbound links with targetted anchor texts. IL -> Inbound links: Links you receive (backlinks) OL -> Outbound links: Links you give to other websites.(forward links)
Semantically speaking internal linking is on page SEO. And off site links carry much more weight than onsite links.
Meditang... just wondering what makes you say "Off site links carry much more weight than onsite links". If you are refering to page rank then that assertion is false. Page rank is distrubuted evenly to all links on a page whether they are pointing internally or externally.
Internal Linking is considered a process of On page optimization as anything required to login the website or by using FTP client is made possible may be considered as a On page process.
Internal linking structure is of course, on page optimization and also very important. The site architecture affects how google prioritizes your pages.
