In my daily routine work, constextual links relevant pages usually looks more natural and often better over the time ?
whats your opinion abt this?
 
Completely agree, contextual links to inner pages perform better than stacking everything to homepage. Clients ask for homepage links thinking its "main page" importance, but Google read repeated same pattern as unnatural.I usually push client toward money or service pages stuck on page 2 instead, since homepage already get internal link juice naturally. Better ranking movement and more natural link distribution overall
 
I agree Contextual links from relevant pages usually look more natural and often provide better long-term value than sending every link to the homepage.
 
yeah contextual links on relevant pages almost always outperform homepage links, clients just think homepage = more authority which isn't really how it works
 
A balanced backlink profile with both homepage and contextual inner page links usually works much better in the long run.
 
Yeah I see that all the time. Clients always want homepage links because they think its stronger but in reality contextual links on relevant inner pages convert way better and look much more natural to Google.

Homepage links are good occasionally but spamming them is a classic mistake.
 
IMO homepage links still have their place, but relying on them alone is a mistake. A balanced link profile with relevant contextual links is much harder to beat.
