Hi,
While submitting one of my articles today, I tried to link it with a related article of mine that too is posted on Boddunan. But, to my surprise there was no provision for linking the articles. Shouldn't a provision be given for hyperlinking two articles?

Thanks,
Anshu

There is no necessity of any provision. Just give the URL of the related article, saying, refer my article.....
How to do if suppose I want to hyperlink a word with a previously submitted article? I believe such provision should be provided to the authors. That will also give a cleaner look to the article being submitted.

Why do you want to link another article of your own published in the same site? What I understand is if you want to say that the present article of yours has a similar content related in a different manner on a different context,you want to inter link with the other article. In that case just say, "look at my other article " and give the URL. If its otherwise, there is no such provision here. Anyhow you can communicate with the administrator through a thread and suggest.

As Rambabu pointed out, you could include the urls , at the bottom of your article ! I have done that when we had the contest and we were writing on one subject, it made sense to provide links of all articles written on the same aubject matters..

I too have done in the same way. I never felt the necessity of having a provision for interlinking the articles.
I think it is automatically done, just click on your article and after it opens at its right side bar, from there you can find related articles, and that is automatically done, so where is the need arises. It shows related posts from other authors though it is a multi author contents site but overall it is a sites so in this way it collects all relevant links from different author and interlink it in related posts.

Related articles are different. The thread poster wants to link with one of his own articles with the same content written for Boddunan.

Earlier there was a provision for interlinking articles in boddunan, I have done this myself in one of my earlier articles, but the site underwent a major overhauling and numerous changes took place. I believe that is when this facility was taken off, the reason probably might be due to oversight. I suggest you send a PM to admin regarding this and see what they say. Otherwise, just give a url at the bottom of your article, like others have suggested.

Oh... Earlier the provision of interlinking was there? I'm not aware of this. Anyhow, just giving URL will serve the purpose. I for one never felt the necessity of a provision for interlinking of articles. Ever since I started writing articles here, I have been giving the URL that served my purpose.

Yes Rambabu, the provision existed earlier. Now giving url might suffice but the fact is that in the electronic media, attention and interest of the reader is definitively shortlived and if he or she cannot access something quickly, they just move on. So interlinking article is one way of assuring readership. Only a few might go to the trouble of copying the url and pasting in browser to read its contents, more likely, readers will just pass on! So having interlinking feature is always better.

It might be due to sudden change of Google Panda search engne alogorithms which penalises sites with high links.

Agreed. The provision of Interlinking the articles certainly has its advantages. I think, this can be brought to the notice of the Administrator,so that he can reestablish the old system of interlinking the articles.

The links in such case would be links to commercial websites and ads to increase traffic. Here it is about linking one article to another of the same author. eg. I wrote an article on Emotional Intelligence in which Empathy is a major factor. I had written another article on Empathy and since both these are related to each other, I gave an interlink in my EI article. so that when someone reads my article, I expect him to read my other article Empathy also which talks about it in detail. This has nothing to do with search engine algorithm but allowing readers to read more on what you want!

Google Panda Alogortim relates with page loading time of website, the more links the more connections, one can check how many connection a single web page is making before appearing within web browser through "disconnect" add on of chrome or firefox, then page speed test, links to other websites or same website take same amount of time and call back time before particular page load and perhaps that single reason compelled administrator to remove interlinking of article, am not sure I just writing in anticipation.

Exactly. The purpose of interlinking is to providing an opportunity to the reader to have more in depth knowledge about the author"s article
