Four Distinctions Of Quality Backlinks

By Conrad Oconnorton


With today's internet, in order for your site to be seen it needs some quality backlinks. It's no longer enough to just write good content and have good SEO practices. To help your site fight its way to the top of the search engine ranks requires some work on your part. A great place to start is by building some really good links to your site.

Building those links, though, can be confusing at times. Just what really makes a link a good one? If you really want to help your site, you need to build quality backlinks, not just drop links wherever you can and go. This does take time. If the issue of building good links confuses you, this article can help. The really good links all have four aspects in common.

The links will come from high ranking domains. Every page on the internet has a page rank. This rank ranges from 0 all the way to 9. Just check out the site's page rank before spending a lot of time getting a link from there. The higher the rank, the better the backlink is.

The link should come from a relevant page. As an example, if you are writing about dog food and can manage to get links from a major supplier of dog food, you have major quality backlinks in the making. If however, the link you get is from a page about good smelling candles... The link isn't going to be worth as much. The search engines are really smart about this. A relevant page linking to your page is a very good thing.

The link should be contextual. This goes hand in hand with the relevant page item. You can't just drop your link and run, much as you might want to. You can't sneak your link in by linking to the word food in an article about catering. The words around your link need to be relative to what you are linking to.

Where the link is on the page does matter. A link in a sidebar or footer is still a good link if it follows the above rules. But quality backlinks placed directly in the content of the page itself are worth more. Be careful though. Search engines are getting smarter every day. They also look for things like how many links are on a page. If a webpage consists mostly of links and very little else, the quality of the links goes down a great deal.

By making sure your backlinks all have the above characteristics, you can really help your site in its struggle to the top. And if you really want to supercharge your work, you can then spend time building links to your backlinks. Again, search engines are very, very smart. They look for things like that.

By spending time and energy, you really can help your website rise up through the search engine ranks. Give your site the attention it needs to make it. Getting quality backlinks isn't easy, but they really are worth the effort.
