i've had the best results by linking closely related pages within the same topic cluster it feels more natural for users helps search engines understand the content better and is much easier to scale over time

I mostly add internal links based on relevance. If a page helps explain the topic better, I link it there.

I usually look at my important pages first and add internal links from new content to them. It helps spread value across the site.

You should focus on focus on pure content relevance first. Only add links where they naturally help the reader find more useful information on the same subject.

I'm curious about howSEO plan internal linking when publishing new content. do you prefer building links based on topic clusters, authority flow, or just relevence? what method has worked best for improving ranking and user experience.

I use topic clusters bro.
When I publish new content, I link it to 3-5 old posts in the same cluster.
And I make sure the old posts also link back to the new one.
This helped my authority flow a lot + users stay longer.
For me this works better than just random relevance links.

I mostly focus on relevance and topical connections rather than just passing authority. It keeps the site easier to navigate and has worked well for both rankings and user experience.
