My name is Brandon Galey and welcome to episode 219 of the blog millionaire.

This is the seventh part of a series going through every one of my

ad income growth hacks. In this episode, I will be teaching you how to optimize the placement

of your internal links. Your primary advertising goal for every blog post is to get each visitor

to read all the way through your post

while displaying the maximum number of ads. Your secondary goal is to get these visitors to

click through one of your internal links as they are approaching the end of your post. When it comes

to optimizing blog posts with internal links, there are two specific tactics that you need to execute.

The first one has to do with pillar post internal links.

For every major category of your blog, you should have one pillar post.

A pillar post is an epic piece of content that puts your best foot forward,

and these posts typically are over 2,000 words. For example, if you were a business or marketing

blogger and had a category on SEO, then you might have an epic 5,000 word post on the top 100 SEO tactics that still work

in 2021. A food blogger might have a list post of the top 25 recipes for each major category

that they have on their blog. After you have created one of your pillar posts for a category,

you can use the Ad Inserter plugin to place a strong call to action

with the pillar post link at the end of every post in that category.

When a visitor gets to the end of a specific dessert recipe,

they will see the call to action for the 25 greatest dessert recipes of all time. They will then click through to read it and generate more ad income for your blog.
