Link Equity

Link equity is informal SEO vocabulary for the value that may flow from a linking page to a destination. It is influenced by the linking page’s own authority, relevance, placement, attributes, and the site’s overall trust. There is no public meter that shows exact equity units.

Practically, you increase useful equity by earning links from strong, related pages and by making sure internal links pass attention to money pages. Orphan URLs waste equity. Spanish sites should internally connect locale clusters so es-MX content shares discovery paths.

Do not chase equity myths such as needing only homepage links. Deep editorial links to product and guide pages often convert better. When publishers offer only author-box links, negotiate in-content placement.

Reclaim equity after migrations with redirect maps. Broken legacy citations from Mexican publishers are common after rebrands; fix them proactively.
