What is the difference between backlink and hyperlink?

I m confuse to differentiate between backlink and hyperlink. To increase the traffic, which is the best platform to leave these types of links?

 

Hi Jason,

I think your question is like asking "what is the difference between revenue and money?" Hyperlink is just like an offical term of "link" , any link you found on the web, no matter where it point to, are hyperlinks. So just forget about this term. Backlink means links from other sites that point to your site. So what you really care about is backlink.

 

Hyperlink is a link which is given to website & backlink means a link pointing to your website

 

Hyperlink is ANY link, including a link in your own Website's navigation. A backlink is a one-way link from another Website to yours. Backlinks are valuable because if the Website that's linking to you is on a similar topic and has better ranking and more visitors than your own, such a backlink will help you improve your Site's search engine ranking and traffic.

 

I like your reply so much. Moreover, a hyperlink is just referring to html or making a keyword linked. A backlink is when you have a link to your website on any other website
