5 Reasons You Should Link Out to Others From Your Website
.
Especially in the department of SEO & marketing of midsize and large organizations, a debate exists about the issue of linking out to other websites from their own website. to other websites from their own. There are a number of reasons why people are scared. Some reasons why they are worried about linking out are:
• Reputation damage
• Search Engine Rankings being damaged.
• PageRank costing
• Creation of exit portals where users will drop off
These concerns are largely unfounded as it is a very common web practice.If by chance, you link to the occasional site or page that’s been taken by a domain squatter or an entranced Twilight fan, visitors will most likely forgive you, if it is an old link.
Similarly, search engines do recognize that even the best websites sometimes carry a link to the nether regions of cyberspace. As long as you don’t carelessly provide links to Sham-wow hawking pages, extra care is not required, not any more than you would, linking to possible 404s.

As for costing PageRank, it is very true. The original PR formula states that any link equity spent on external pages is considered as lost opportunity. Something that that could have been spent on internal pages. There is, however, compelling evidence to suggest that not only does linking out NOT harm a site’s rankings, it also appears to carry some positive correlations with ranking, trust, etc. on both a page and domain-wide level.
