more content or more backlinks ?

i was wondering whether important for the SEO. writing more content or increasing the number of backlinks to reach higher ranking.

 

As everybody points out, content is still king. Good content will create "free" links from other people linking to you, otherwise you have to create the links yourself. And with the new Google Panda algorithm, content will increase in importance. That of course does not mean that you should stop link building! But I prefer content creation, in the long run it provides more dividends.

 

Yep I agree. The back links exist to support the content, rather than thenother way round.

 

Content is king no matter what - but you need to work on increasing your backlinks - in order to have successful SEO.

 

content is the most important but you still need backlinks

 

The combination of both can do the trick, really.

 

More content or more backlinks doesn't matter. What matters is more quality content and more quality backlinks. Quantity was never an important thing unless there is quality in each of those quantity.

 

Really tricky question. The answer will be pretty similar as earlier said "Both are equally important". If you leave one other will start pulling you back.So maintain a balance between the duo.

 

I think both are important content & backlinks

 

Your website should contain quality content with a focus on targeted keywords and key phrases. After having quality content you need a good number of quality back links.

 

There are sites (eccommerce sites for exemple) where you can't and is no point adding content from time to time for those Backlinks

For blogs / informative sites More content and more backlinks ...

 

i think in this case caring about quality is more important than quality and you of course have to continue your continue your back linking job too.

 

More content, but if your site is new backlinks are more important. You need to get the word out.

 

I think it depends on the site, its a risk vs reward when making this call. To be clean building content is the way to go and hope for some truly "organic" links to happen, but for immediate more "risky" rewards, links are the way to go (remember...all links are not created equal!).

if you enhanced the both of them your SEO campaign will never be the same.

 

Both points are diffrent, more iffective are backlinks, they you get by links (One Way or Two Way or Three Way).

 

I think we need more content first and we can target for keyword by back link.

 

Quality content and quality backlinks are important for ranking.

 

Content and backlinks both are important.But presence of fresh and unique content increases your backlinks.If your web page contains duplicate content.So that less number of users will come tour web page and then, you get less number of backlinks.So,if you have unique content ,then, thereby you get more number of links.

 

if you want to have more backlinks you have to do more content.
