backlinks will always be important t o search engines, because they are intrinsically harder to 'fake' than other seo techniques.
That a whole lot of backlink you have got, by the way when i click on you website inthe signature my antivirus gave me the message "site not safe" just i have no idea why it did but it just for your information Thanks
Absolutely. Not only is this true of Yahoo but all SE's. Main thing for Yahoo is make sure you are listed in Yahoo directory as they favor that (duh), as well as Yahoo answers, and Buzz. Be sure to leverage these opportunities for better SERPs.
Backlinks are the nectar for higher rankings. So more the backlinks more your site will be high ranked.
More backlinks the better = YES. They don't HAVE to be quality backlinks. Junk backlinks wont harm your SERPs but it's probably a waste of your time obtaining them.. However, when you take on the mentality of 'more backlinks' - you CAN damage your SERPs if you end up with backlinks from blacklisted sites.. I would obtain as many backlinks as you can, without hitting the realms of blacklisted FFA's etc..
Yep, I have no doubt about that. The more backlinks the better. When the backlinks hits 10k, I think there will be apparent improvement on your website page rank.
But i have seen some sites with less than a hundred backlinks outranking sites with thousands... I think quality is very important
I can't believe they would penalize you for having more backlinks. I have not seen the issue you are talking about. Personally, I will continue building backlinks. Good Luck!
I'd agree, as long as it looks natural. For example, 10,000 backlinks all with the anchor text 'credit cards' does NOT look natural.
It's very probable. I mean, not so long ago google wasn't overly obsessed with backlinks, but now they can't get enough of them.
Backlinks with keyword anchor text are always good for SERPS, if you build them naturally they never hurt
