    backlinks is not the only factors, there are other factors that determine serp ranking e.g. authority, content etc.

    always focus on relevant links rather then number of links.

    yup, backlinks is just once part of SERPs, but keep focusing on building quality backlinks & good contents, it takes time.

    Other factors including your page content, like for seo etc really matters on your page... I'ms thinking google doesn't kid websites.,..

    It is not only the quantity of backlinks but also the quality of backlinks that matters. You will have to have good links from relevant authority sites to help your ranking.

    quality of backlink is more important than the quantity of backlink
    By the way, backlink is only one of the factor that affect the SERP, there are many other factors beside the backlink

    Also check your backlinks to make sure they are DOFOLLOW links, it matters for SEO.

    that's the easy part...the harder part can be telling if the site's clean or not.

    i always hear "Content is king" yet maybe it was only king for a day because my google rank dropped off the map as soon as we switched to a new domain, with the SAME content as before plus more.
