SISÄVIITTEIDEN

Sisäviitteet, also known as internal links, are hyperlinks that connect one page to another within the same website or wiki. They are a fundamental feature of hypertext systems, allowing users to navigate seamlessly between related content. Internal links are typically created using HTML or wiki markup languages, and they can be text-based or graphical.

The primary purpose of sisäviitteet is to enhance the user experience by providing quick access to relevant information. They help in organizing content, improving site navigation, and increasing the time users spend on the site. Internal links also play a crucial role in search engine optimization (SEO) by helping search engines understand the structure and relevance of the content.

However, excessive use of internal links can lead to issues such as link bloat, where the page becomes cluttered and difficult to read, or link farms, where pages are created solely for the purpose of linking to other pages. Therefore, it is essential to use internal links judiciously and strategically.

In wikis, internal links are often created using double square brackets, with the target page enclosed within. For example, [[Internal Link]] would create a link to a page titled "Internal Link." This makes it easy for users to navigate between related topics and encourages a more interconnected and comprehensive knowledge base.
