How to Build a Network of Interlinked Websites — The Right Way

Want to create multiple websites in related niches that support each other? Done wrong, interlinking can look spammy and get penalized. Done right, it builds authority and boosts traffic across all your properties. With Summrly, you can create a network of topic-based sites with smart, natural interlinking — no black-hat risks, no manual grunt work. Enter your main topic, and AI helps you structure and connect sites the SEO-safe way.

Why a Content-First Website Solves This

Most site networks fail because they force links or reuse content. Summrly starts with your core topic and branches into semantically related niches (e.g., “yoga” → “prenatal yoga,” “yoga gear,” “mindfulness”). Each site gets unique, high-value content, and AI suggests natural cross-links only where relevant — like citing a guide from one site in a blog post on another. This creates a trusted ecosystem that search engines reward, not penalize.

Step-by-Step Guide

Create Your First Topic – Enter your umbrella niche (e.g., “sustainable living”).
Set Up Your Content Focus – Choose “multi-site network” or “niche expansion.”
Add Keywords – AI identifies sub-niches and keyword opportunities for each site.
Brand Details – Assign unique branding and voice to each site in the network.
Complete Setup – Launch 3–10 interlinked but distinct sites with natural cross-promotion.

Case Study: A Creator Who Grew 5 Sites with Shared Authority

A wellness entrepreneur used Summrly to launch five sites: eco parenting, zero-waste kitchens, sustainable fashion, green travel, and non-toxic beauty. Each had unique content, but AI suggested natural links — like a travel post linking to a packing checklist on the eco parenting site. Within 6 months, all five ranked in the top 3 for their primary keywords, and backlinks grew organically. Google treated them as trusted, related resources — not a spam network.
