Hi all,

Do search engines know the difference between absolute and relative links?

From what I understand, inbound links have the potential to increase your search engine ranking. What about internal (relative) links within your own website, for example Wikipedia has a gazillion relative links between their articles. Does this help Wikipedia get ranked higher?


Thanks in advance!

Use absolute URL's whenever linking to your home page, even from within your own web site. Use either absolute or relative URL's when linking to other pages of web site within your web site.

I have used both methods on various web sites and it does not seem to make a difference in the rankings.
