    It is a link embedded within the content of an article published on a website. Ideally, there should be words before and after the link, also preferably the link should be located at the beginning of the article, likes within the first paragraph. Remember you put the link at the end of the article, strictly speaking it is not called contextual link.

    It usually means links within the article, like the links put this way: "blah...blah....Wal-Mart will host its "Super Saturday" event on Nov. 5 from 11 a.m. until midnight. Deals include: Xbox 360 250GB Console with Kinect, $399 plus a $50 Walmart Gift Card; Nook Color, Rollback $199, originally $249; and LG 47" Class LED TV, $698. blah...blah...."

    Blogroll links or links in the menu bars are not usually considered contextual links.

    For what it's worth, contextual links are generally more valuable, than a blogroll link. Assuming all else is equal i.e PR of the page/website etc.

    ive always been under the impression a contextual link is the type of link you would use for popups/popunders (ppv traffic), is this not correct?

    No Mike. Contextual = In-content

        This IS what the WF needs less of. Period.

        Go ahead. Call me names back. I don't give a rat's hat.

        I've said it before, I'll say it again. These nonsense questions
        are just that. Nonsense. I don't care that the OP even answered
        back. The whole thing stinks like ibex doo-doo.

        But people keep the cargo-spam going.

        Look at the sig.

        TIP: Before offering ANY SEO services, actually LEARN SEO.

        But then, SEO Nepal says it all.

        Spam. Pure spam.

        Good luck with that "SEO Expert From Nepal" thing.
        Have pity on any customers.

      A content and theme based related natural link building. It increases website SERP and traffic if the content is rich. Whenever making your link building strategies, you must focus on contextual link.

      You can see the examples of contextual linking in 1st and last sentence to this post. I just underline the text due to some forum restrictions.
