Internal and External backlink

there two types of backlinks. Internal and External. External links tell the search engines what pages on your site are considered as important by other people. Internal links are important too; they tell the search engines which pages are important to you on your site. However internal links are not weighed anywhere near as heavily as external links, but they do count towards pagerank. You can see the effect especially when you have hundreds or thousands of your pages indexed. So the internal linking is also important for gaining overall high pagerank. In your website design, you should try and have a text link back to your homepage from every page of your site. Many sites use Flash and Java navigation and they look great from the user point of view, but their internal pages do not get spidered easily; so you should always include a text link to other pages, preferably using relevant anchor text containing relevant keywords.

That's a great post mate. To add, internal linking is effective when you do it contextually. This gives more emphasis on the keyword. In using the keyword as an anchor text make sure that it should land on the relevant page. Once this pages got PR the link juice can be share to other pages of your site which in return will help to rank your targeted keywords in SE's.

The benefits of backlinks are:
*Increasing your search engine position for keywords or phrases.
*Increase your visitors as people follow your links found on other websites.
*Increase brand awareness for your name or business name - the more people that see and hear your website brand, name or url, the more people will visit and remember your website.

Internal and external backlinks are very important for our websites. Internal links are more helpful.
