Ultimate Backlinks Guide for 2024 (+ 3 Awesome Link Building Techniques)

Backlinks are one of the most important Google ranking factors.

In fact:

You can handle all the other SEO variables well, but without backlinks, you won't rank.

There are two ways to think about backlinks:

1️⃣ Your domain strength

Google likes ranking websites with strong link profiles as a whole. Why? Because it's a single of authority and trust. In their (algorithm's) eyes, if other high-quality websites trust you, they should also.

Your goal should be to narrow the backlink gap between you and your competitors on the domain level.

2️⃣ Your quantity of backlinks on the page level

You need to acquire backlinks to all pages throughout your website. Examine how many backlinks your competitors have for the target keyword you want to rank for. Then work to narrow that gap on the page level.

The biggest benefit of rich people is they buy Backlinks from high authority websites and rank.

The biggest problem with low investment website owners are they can't buy those Backlinks.

People buying Backlinks and ranking. And it's a issue for those SEO professionals who don't have budget. Hence the getting Backlinks is getting harder more.

This is the b.s. area of SEO. I'm sorry, competitors are not going to link to you. It takes time and just like YT, a ton of people who care what you're saying.
The rest of SEO is pretty useful.
