Optimizing your Website: Internal Links
Link your site's internal pages. For example, if you are writing about foreign currency and you mention the euro, link the word euro to an article in your site which is written about the euro. Do this often and it soon becomes a force of habit! The search engines will see that you have lots of interlinked and relevant content on your site and they'll like it.. and liking it is good :)
