Can we talk about how I changed my mind on internal linking for my hobby site?
It seriously helped people find more pages and stick around.

Read a blog that called internal links the site's own recommendation engine.

Totally get changing your mind on that. Good internal linking just makes people click around more. It is the easiest way to get your older pages some traffic.

Wesley's right about internal linking being a game changer. @dakotal49, I had the same doubt until I saw my analytics. Like, I wrote a new post on kitchen gadgets and linked back to my old review on blenders. That old page got a 30% bump in views just from that one link. It keeps people reading instead of bouncing off. Now I make sure every new piece points to at least two older ones.
