I don't really follow a fixed formula for internal linking. Once the article is finished, I read it again and look for places where another page would genuinely add value. If a link feels useful in the flow of the content, I keep it. If it looks forced, I skip it. I've found that keeping it simple and reader-focused works better than trying to optimize every possible link.
 
Once a page is live, I go back into my highest-authority cluster pages and strategically link down to the new asset. That’s where the real rank boost comes from.

I use a strategy. Natural links are good .I always prioritize linking to relevant page the support topical authority.
 
bit of both honestly. i keep a rough list of my "hub" pages that i want to send more authority to, but when i'm actually writing i just link wherever it makes sense in context. forcing links in that don't fit the sentence always reads weird to me and probably to readers too
 
I usually link to pages that actually help the reader understand the topic better.
 
I prefer planning topic clusters first to keep related articles connected. Grouping your pages logically makes it much easier for search engines to crawl your site.
 
to be honest a do both and based on how i feel at that moment sometime i like following my gut feeling and it has always been working fine for me
 
In my opinion, a small plan works better. Random links can be helpful, but linking related topics together gives better structure.

I usualy mix both. I have a few priority page I want to push, but I add link where they actualy make sense instead of forcing exact matche everywhere.
 
I try to link only when it makes sense Too many links on one page can look messy, so I keep it simple.
 
Earlier I was adding links randomly, but now I check which pages need more support and link them carefully.
 
I usually add internal links after finishing the article. It is easier to see which pages connect naturally once the full content is ready.
