Do you know Yaro Starak’s blog, Entrepreneur’s Journey? I follow it because he’s always testing things. I dropped by today looking for something on search engine optimization and found the most-like Yaro tip.
Yaro calls it intra-linking. He places keyword links at the bottom of each page. These key content words link to other pages in his blog. He chooses words that he uses often in his entries.
The idea is that this will get search engines to fully spider his blog.
It’s a short post, and an easy thing to try. The post is called A SEO tip.
He also offers up a link to SEO CHAT which I’ve copied here in case his blog catches fire one day.

Lol, catches fire! Heh, nice. Hey you never know.
Thanks for the mention Liz, much appreciated.
Wow that’s really is a good idea. I never know just by intralinking enhance the better search engine spidering.
Thanks Liz for the info. 🙂
Yaro!
I’ve been reading you for a while.
I enjoy you and your work. It’s refreshing.
Liz
Mayvelous,
I was just by your site reading about what the burglars had to eat! And about how you’re using BlogIt! Sorry I left without leaving a comment. Got a message to come back here. Hope intra-linking works for you. I can’t wait to try it.
Liz
I’ve been a big fan of Yaro’s for quite a while – the guy knows what he’s talking about …he loves a long post 😉
Probably for seo types it’s something you learn early on, using keywords in your anchor.
Sometimes the smallest things are forgotten as we try out new seo tips and tricks. It’s basic but is proven to have real seo effects.
BTW Liz, I love how you respond to every comment made here. Even though I’m more or less doing the same at my blog I’m going to write a post about it tonight sourcing you as my inspiration.
Hey Martin,
It’s not a conversation if one person talks and walks away, leaving everyone else to comment in a vacuum.
Yaro is cool. Isn’t he. Did you read his test about the $1M web page? I’m thinking of doing a post on that.
Thanks for the encouragement, Martin. I need it just as much as anyone. 🙂
Liz
Take a closer look Liz – I was one of those that contributed ($10) to Yaro’s fund for the $1m test he did.
Cool Martin. Way cool.
You’re in my hero club now, Martin. 🙂
Aww, gee guys, my head is going to explode, no more gratuitous props okay!
I agree with Martin on the keeping up with comments, ahh, comment. It’s something I did at the start of blogging back when I was just getting my first comments but lately a few of my readers have been leaving comments almost as long as my posts (and that is saying something!) so I’m having trouble keeping up. I could, if I don’t be careful, spend good chunks of my day commenting. I believe you do that already right Martin? 😉
Hi Yaro and Martin,
I look at it this way, I could spend up to half my time commenting if what’s going on in the comment section is adding serious content to the blog. Since this blog is about successful blogging. These comments we’re having right now are like case studies of how it could (and hopefully should) be done.) So I write one less post, my readers still get quality content just in another form. And better yet a form in which they get to be a part.
Liz
Oh well since Liz and Martin saying a great deal about how cool Yaro’s site is, I just have to add his feed in. 😀
Gotta explore his site.
Mayvelous,
Yaro’ll will be glad to have you. See you when you get back.
Liz
Mayvelous – make sure you make a coffee before heading off to Yaro’s blog – he’s not one for short posts 🙂
Hi Martin,
Good point. You made me laugh. I bet Yaro’d laugh too.
Liz
Oh yes, definitely made me laugh, although I’m quite used to Martin’s comments about the length of my blog posts. I suspect a lot of people don’t finish reading my articles but as long as Martin does I can sleep soundly. You do right Martin?
Well, Yaro,
Maybe the reason they don’t is because Martin starts talking about them and they don’t have to. 🙂 Thanks for coming over. How’s the weather in Tomorrowland?
smiles,
Liz
