Which psge on your site do you like to link to when you get a solid link?

Home page, blog post or collection page for ecommerce sites?

Collection page - just to flow that link juice and authority.

I generally point to homepage FIRST the first week or so, then followed by collection page.

In 2015, Collection page is best to go. Homepage link get more link juice but it will not be consider as natural link all the time. So linking to inner page also gives authority, link juice.

You see, majority of highly ranked websites will have more external backlink's in which most of them are pointing to inner pages only.

If I want to build authority of a site, I will point it to the homepage. If I just want to rank fast, I will pick a page with highest chance of conversion. Collection page is good, but it might dilute it too much

Innerpage to Innerpage for specific terms, innerpage to category page for authority boost.

Again watch the trends to see what is ranking. Is it a category page or a specific product URL.
