		<description>[...] www.Johnchow.com has an excellent post about the importations of deep linking. With the advent of scrapers (A robot that reads blog posts RSS feeds and creates copies of content for there own website) alot of your content can be easily stolen but if you include some links to posts in your post they will be copied to the scrapers website and you should be able to get some SEO benefits. Another reason I deep link in almost very posts is because of scrapers. I offer a full feed RSS. That makes it very easy for scrapers to rip the entire content of my blog and post it on a scraper blog. Most scrapers rip the entire post with all links intact. If your post has a ton of deep links back to your blog, then you may get some get SEO benefits and visitors from the scraper blog. [...]</description>

		<description>Search engines do treat them differently though.  The related posts are going to be isolated from any meaningful text whereas the deep link is put into context by the surrounding writing.  From most search engines' perspective, that's much more likely to be a higher quality link.

As to how much better it is, only a handful of people know.</description>

		<description>Think of it as using previous information to allow your readers to put themselves in the proper context.  Link back to things that further colour your current writing.  That way you don't have to re-hash things for regulars, new readers can orient themselves if they need to and you get SEO benefits out of it all.</description>
