I am writing some articles for my blog that are part of a series and plan on continuing this since they seem to be popular amongst my visitors. I want to make these articles easy to find so I created a page to post all the links from each series in list form.

Is it bad for seo to have this kind of internal page only for links to other blog pages?

    Internal linking is a really good idea and there are some advanced techniques such as the "Silo" structure to help your pages rank better in the SERPs. However it's never a good idea to have a page consisting of all links. I suggest to include a brief, optimized summary of the page you are linking to next to the link itself.

      Internal linking is good for SEO as it adds weight to your other pages. I wouldn't personally create a list page though. I would add links to other pages from your home page using anchor text that reflects the keyword - if that makes sense - but that is just how I would do it

    I agree with Melissa. Not bad for SEO at all; in fact, you can boost your SEO with pages like this.

    I would also post a quick summary for each page you're linking to. Also, perhaps include an introductory paragraph at the top of the page explaining what the "series" is all about.

    It is good for SEO, but more important, it's good for your visitors. Nothing to worry about!

    According to me its not better idea to create a dedicated page for your articles , you can create a widget or some sort of link list and post it to left sidebar of your pages. So All articles can be easily accessible for your users.
