Technical SEO FAQ · URL Architecture, Internal Linking & Information Architecture
How do you identify internal-linking opportunities algorithmically?
Create a page-to-page relevance model using:
- topic/entity similarity;
- category relationships;
- breadcrumb relationships;
- existing anchor text;
- destination importance;
- crawl depth;
- current inbound-link count.
Then generate candidate relationships and have editorial/product teams approve them where needed.
Avoid automatically inserting thousands of low-value links. The system should optimize meaningful relationships, not link volume.
