I have hundreds of pages that could benefit from more internal links. How do I decide where to focus first for maximum SEO impact?

Use this framework: cross-reference your LinkJuice PageRank data with your GSC impressions data. Pages with high impressions but low internal PageRank are your highest-priority targets — Google already thinks they're relevant, but they're not receiving the equity they deserve internally.

Export both datasets, join on URL, and sort by the ratio of impressions to internal PageRank descending. The top 20 pages on that list are where to focus first.

Quick tip for anyone confused about orphans: filter out your pagination pages first (URLs with ?page= or /page/2/ patterns). These often show as orphans because the canonical points away from them, but they're not really missing links — they're just correctly de-indexed. Focus the orphan fix on unique content URLs only.

The redirect chain flag has been a goldmine for us. Found 847 internal links pointing to old redirect URLs after a CMS migration. Fixing those took two weeks but the crawl efficiency improvement was massive — Google started finding new content 3x faster based on our GSC coverage reports.
