I have made some further changes today as far as internal linking is concerned, based on the above.
I have looked at the top-ranking pages on my site, according to ahrefs, then I have filtered 10 pages from that list, that are targeting products in my niche. With those 10 pages, I have looked for the most relevant keywords, that my homepage is ranking somewhere in the top 50 results for. Using those keywords I have linked from the product pages to the homepage with a mixture of exact, partial and broad match anchors. The idea being that these links should be super-relevant because the content is focused exclusively on the keywords that I am using as anchor text.
I will check back on the results in 7 days and 14 days to see if there are any improvements.

In the interests of transparency, here are the ranking updates. There are a few good movements, but lots of negative movements, unfortunately. However, I believe some of this may be the result of recent updates because I noticed a few keywords on my site have fallen without any changes being made.

kw2 - Added exact match link to third paragraph. #8 - #9 (-1)
