Yes, internal links are simply links between pages on your own site. They’re essential for SEO because they help search engines understand your site’s structure, allowing them to crawl and index your pages more effectively. Internal links also guide users to related content, improving user experience and potentially boosting page rankings by spreading “link equity” throughout your site

Internal links are simply links on your site that connect one page to another within your own domain. They’re much more than just navigation aids.

When search engines crawl your website, internal links help them understand the structure of your site, indicating which pages are most important and how they relate to each other. This improves your site’s crawlability and can boost the authority of individual pages. For example, linking a high-performing page to a new or less popular page can help pass some of that authority along, potentially improving its search rankings.

From a user perspective, internal links create a better experience by guiding visitors to related content, keeping them on your site longer, and increasing engagement. I always recommend using descriptive anchor text for internal links so both search engines and users know exactly what to expect when they click.
