I heard some advises to link back from each article to my homepage, to pass the link juice from all articles to the homepage. Is that true? If not, what should I do better than that?
 
I guess it really depends where you have links coming in and where you want most of the link juice.

For example, if you are trying to rank your homepage but you have a lot of blog posts that other sites are linking to, then yes, you could link back to homepage from those pages. If you already get most links to your homepage and you are trying to rank your sub-pages then no, you dont want to link back to homepage.

Got it. I'm not trying to rank the homepage at all, but, Yes, I get links on my articles.. In this case, Should I care about passing the link juice from my articles to my homepage?
 
Personally I wouldn't worry too much about it. I would be interlinking between articles where it makes sense, that way you are pushing some juice to the other content that you are trying to rank.

And for the record I would also be trying to actively build links to the homepage separately but I guess you are already doing that (Even though you are not trying to rank homepage, those links will then get filtered down to your articles and helps to keep everything looking natural as well).

Thanks a lot! Yes, I do build links and strong links for my homepage and also I limit number of articles on my homepage so the link juice will be divided on a less number of articles and It works very well for me. Thanks again!
