Internal linking for AI discovery

By the Answerbid teamVerified 12 October 20262 min read

Short answer

Link important pages from your navigation, hub pages and related articles with descriptive anchor text. Google lists internal linking as a best practice for AI features, because crawlers find and understand pages through links.

Patterns

  • Hub pages per topic linking to every article
  • "Related" blocks within the same topic
  • Descriptive anchors ("pricing for 50–500 users"), not "click here"
  • No orphan pages

Questions

How many links per page?
