Inner page deep linking for single post SERP?

[tim75]

I have been dabbling in a niche blog and doing a little keyword research (I am still very new to all this). It has only been 2 days so I am not expecting anything yet, but one of my posts has been indexed and is ranked 131st for a fairly non competitive keyword.

Now all that info is fairly useless, but what I want to know is will that single post increase in ranking (from 131st) naturally as I optimise my main page (blog) or am I going to need deep links to increase the single posts SERP position?

I have searched google for the answer, but can't seem to quite find it. Thanks in advance.

I hope that all made sense?

Deep linking helps rank a page... It is very powerful...:good:

Thanks for the answers.

I am also keen to know if I perform SEO for my main page will this improve the rank of all the inner pages too?

Cheers
