First Link Priority refers to the principle in search engine optimization (SEO) that suggests when multiple links on a single webpage direct users to different destinations but utilize identical anchor text, search engines might give precedence to the first link encountered. This concept implies that the initial link is more likely to influence search rankings and receive the benefit of link equity, which is the value passed through hyperlinks from one page to another in terms of authority and trustworthiness.
