    I know that when it comes to build backlinks for your site its the quality which matters not the quantity.But is there any certain limit to which we can build backlinks or the more they are the more they will be better for our sites?

    If you are targeting very competitive keyword for site, then you should try more and more backlink for site. Thanks

    Put as much backlinks as you can but make sure that the sites where you will put your links are relevant to your site.

    Well i would say its better to create as many backlinks as you can especially if you are targeting a competitive keyword for your site. On that note, there is no specific amount of backlinks required.

    not actually. Quality of course is the main thing in this case. but dude the competition level is so high so you have to make high quality back links with huge quantity. so both are important. and there is no specific number.
    thanks

    Yes more and more back links are good but quality back links. So there is no limit but you can create quality back links as much as you can.

    More is better but do not try to quantity always focus on quality.

    Make sure 1 quality (high pr do follow) link = 100 spammy links

    I was going to write the same :)

    One STRONG link can bring you better seo results than 1000 low quality spam links.

    There no such thing as too many high quality, high PR links. If CNN builds 10,000 links to your page tomorrow, you will not be deindexed. Focus on getting quality links to your pages and there is no such thing as too many of those.
