    Contextual link building is an embedded link within the content page itself. The link is in the article and not separated in the content.

    The link that is in your content is called contextual links. Contextual links can be of 3 types:
    1. External links: The links that is point to external article or website.
    2. Internal Links: The links of your website or blog.
    3. Reciprocal links : This happens when another site asks you to link back to your site within its own content.

    Contextual links mean "anchor text" here is an example the home page of this forum lets say if someone was writing an article, blogging, or press release type content they might link to the eforum like this bla bla bla whatever best internet forum the HTML code is like this "< A href="http://www.eforum.com/”>best internet forum</A>" the <a and </a> are called the opening and closing anchor tags anything in plain text in between them is called a contectual link, of which there are two types one is dofollow and the other is nofollow. You want the dofollow link because it passes link juice and the other not as much I hope the forum admins don't mind the link as it's to this site :)

    A contextual link is a type of link that's usually found within the body of content and is in context with the idea surrounding the link. It can be both natural (voluntary links from other websites – ex: link bait) and artificial (manually built – ex: one of your guest posts that links back to your blog/content).

    A contextual link is the clickable text (usually the keywords) found within the written content of your webpage. If used effectively, contextual linking can be proven a very strong SEO linking strategy for your website. Not only that, contextual linking earns you high credibility and popularity among users as well as search engines.
