What Are Backlinks and How Do They Work?

There are over 200 factors that Google uses to rank a website. But the number one factor that Google uses is backlinks.

Backlinks are when someone links to your website from their site. The more sites that link to you, the higher you will rank in Google.

Now all backlinks aren't equal. Here are some of the things Google looks at when analyzing backlinks:

3. The more related a site is the better the link. If you are in the plumbing space, a link from Huffington Post isn't as good as Home Depot (which is an authority site in the home repair space). Try to get links from high domain authority sites within your space.

If you want to build links the quickest way to generate them is through round up posts. Email people within your space and interview them. Include their thoughts within your blog and let them know when you publish the post that includes them. Ask them to share the post on their favorite social network and even ask if they can link back to you.

By doing this your rankings will climb in Google.

Hi Neil, i'm in love with your videos! keep making them, but i just think you should consider to put subtitles on your videos, it really helps the people that are from other countries where english is not their main language (my case 😅)

Hi neil .. Its good to do backlinks with auto backlinking tool or have to do manually.. thank you in advance.

[theeadvocatus]

I'm still not sure I understand this. So I go to a website that's related to my niche, leave a relevant comment and my website URL? That's a backlink?

[gouravsingh]

I have 50 backlink site list.
My website niche is "technology".
How to check that are not related using any tool ?

I know it won't take you long to cross 50k but still all the best :)
