    backlink:
    1) provides traffic from people clicking it
    2) (and most) in search engines guess act as a "vote" for yoursite or page of your site from some other site, thus adding "popularity"=page rank for your site

    Backlink is important for a any website, a site with lots of backlink looks credible in the eye of search engine thus if your site had more backlink there is a great chance that SE will prioritize your site to be displayed on the first page of the SERP.

    Actually back links are the links, which are called the inbound links (IBLs) or the inward links. The greater the number of back links is the greater the popularity of your website. It simply indicates the popularity and importance of your website. Back links are important for SEO because some search engines, especially Google, will give more credit to websites that have a good number of quality back links, and consider those websites more relevant than others in their results pages for a search query.

    The more backlinks you have, the more chances you have to rank higher. This is because if a good employee finds your site, while navigating on the internet, and like it, he will edit the google search page and place the link in the keyword which seems to be the most accurate for your website. It not magic, very simple actually.

    Purpose of backlinks. It is the same in the real life. For example when you want to repair your car you will ask your friends for advice where you can find the best car mechanic. On the internet your friends are sites where you have backlinks and you are car mechanic.

    backlink uses for increase our site, example: you an artist, and many people know you.

    same as your site, and other site linked to your site (they know)
    so, your site will like an artist.

    how?

    Backlinks is simply a link pointing to a certain website. It could help driven both traffics and ranking. However links are purposely for ranking from webmaster perspective, while traffics is only a minimal you could get from links.

    Please remember when you start to build back links to your site that there are different levels of quality.

    For example, spamming the same article or badly spun articles that all look the same offer a lower quality of link than submitting original and fresh content to sites.

    If your articles contain fresh and interesting information they are likely to receive pingbacks as well which is a kind of endorsement from the site that reprints or links to it. After a while you will start to see other site naturally adding your links to their sites assuming the articles are of a high quality.

    Good luck

    PageRank is one of the main features of the Google search engine and created by its founder, If you want to increase your site PageRank, thing you have to do is spread your website link on many other sites. As for how to disseminate it could by buying backlink, exchange links with fellow bloggers, and link directories submissions in a variety of links.
