    Hello Friends,

    You might have seen that websites with less backlinks are ranked on top positions in Search Engines. Some of them are brand new websites so there is no issue of also Domain Age.

    So search engines have less value for backlinks? are backlinks really important? If important, Why?

    Backlinks are the reputation for your site. So they are very important. (Not only for pagerank but also for indexing your site in search engines)

    Yes back links matter a lot. But it doesn't mean of having 1000's of back links with no quality. quality matters not quantity. Quality back links means having back links from relevant and authority websites.

    Backlinks might be the most important thing for achieving good SERP (right after site content IMO)
    I've been doing backlinks like crazy in the past week, and every single day I've seen my SERP improve

    Backlinks are very important. Mistakes are often made when a website owner goes for quantity rather than quality. Yes a website can finish higher than another site with the same related topic but a lot of the time this can be for several reasons including the quality of the backlinks.

    Yes backlink matters. It can gain you pr juice, and also online reputation if your backlinks coming from your theme related site with high pr. And talking about google ranking, I would say I've seen number of examples where new website ranking on top 10 position if onpage is good, keyword competition is less and having good, updated, unique content with enough number of repeating keyword means mains keyword density. Hope this will help you.

    Backlinks are also helpful in getting high rankings in search engine results page. Through backlinks, we can use our targeted keywords as anchor text. If your backlinks come from quality and relevant sites, then this can help increase your rankings.

    Of course! That's a fact. Creating backlinks will help you drive traffic to your site. Thus helping you sell more products. But by creating backlinks, you'll need to have your back-up plans. Costumers might be asking questions be sure to answer them precisely and honestly

    Backlinks can really make or breaking. Next to searching for keyword competition, building backlinks is the most important thing you can do for your site.
