  • [00:40] Eric and Neil don’t know what percentage of their links lead to their homepages.
  • [01:04] It doesn’t always make sense to link something back to your homepage.
  • [01:26] Your homepage won’t convert as well as other pages, so it’s important to use it to discuss your products and services and make pages that are about the specifics of your offerings.
  • [02:03] There’s no magic percentage that works the best.
  • [02:25] Look at your metrics and determine the right percentage for yourself.
