Now without further delay, I will tell you about backlinks. So then let us know what backlinks are and why they are important for your blog/website

What is Backlink?

If we try to understand in simple words, what is a Backlink, then Backlinks are those links which go from one website to another website. For example, if I add the link of your site to any of my posts or to my blog, then your site gets a backlink.

 

What is the benefit of backlinks in SEO?

Backlinks are very beneficial for your blog. The more backlinks your site has, the more value Google gives to your site in search results. But Google values ​​your blog only when your blog has backlinks from quality (good) sites.

There are many other benefits of backlinks such as search engines start indexing your site quickly , your site gets referral traffic, the authority of your site increases.

 

What is Quality Backlink?

Quality Backlinks are those which you get from quality sites. Like HindimeHelp is a quality site and if you get a backlink from Hindimehelp then Google gives more value to your site and gives your blog a higher ranking in search results.

To create quality backlinks, you also have to pay a lot of attention to relevance, which means if your blog is related to technology, then you will have to get backlinks from other technology-related blogs only. Instead, if you get backlinks from a food blog, then Google does not give much value to such backlinks.

Information on how to make quality backlinks 

The better the quality of the site, the worse the backlink is, and here is the information about what a bad backlink is .

 

How many types of backlinks are there?

There are two types of backlinks-

  1. Dofollow Backlink
  2. Nofollow Backlink

 

DoFollow Backlink :

Do-Follow backlinks help in passing link juice, that is, such links are very helpful in increasing the ranking of your blog. Example of Dofollow links:

“<a href=”http://www.google.com/”>Google</a>”

“<a href=”http://www.google.com/” rel=”do-follow”>Google</a>”

By default all links are Do-Follow, but if you want that the link you are giving to other sites should not pass link juice then you can add No-Follow attribute to the link.

 

NoFollow Backlink :

These are those backlinks which do not allow passing of the link, their value in the search engine is less than do-follow links. No-Follow links have no role in Search Engine Ranking. Example of No-Follow backlink:

“<a href=”http://www.google.com/” rel=”no-follow”>Google</a>”

So if you ever get a chance to add a link to such a site on your site which has something wrong on it, then you can no-follow it.

 

How to create backlinks for your site?

Now you must have understood the importance of backlinks, so now this question must have come to your mind that how to start creating backlinks. You can use these simple methods to create backlinks for your site:

20+ ways to make quality backlinks, with the help of which we can rank our website.

 

#1 Create Quality Content:

If you want to create maximum backlinks for your blog, then for this you will have to write quality content on your blog. The post should be in very simple language, to the point and in detail. That means you have to write such articles which your readers can easily understand and that article can help them.

By writing high quality content, other bloggers can add the link of your article to the post to help their readers. Like this is a good article.

 

#2 Start commenting on other blogs:

This is the free and easiest method to create backlinks, all you have to do is start regularly commenting on other blogs in your niche. By commenting on blogs where Commentluv is enabled, your blog gets a two-follow backlink which is very beneficial for your blog. But the blogs on which you get No-follow backlinks by commenting are also helpful for your blog. Although No-follow does not matter much in the search results, it is still okay if it does not happen.

While commenting, keep in mind that you should not add spam comments as this will not get your comment approved . Always try to add value to your comments. That is, avoid such comments- “Great post!” “Awesome post! keep it up” aadi. Such comments are spam comments, avoid them. Read the post and then give your opinion on it. Such comments are good and you will also get to learn something new from them.

 

#3 Start Guest Blogging:

Guest Blogging is very effective in increasing quality backlinks . In this you have to submit your guest post on some popular blogs of your niche (topic) and also add a link of your blog. But remember that for Guest Blogging, choose only the popular blogs of your niche and write and submit a guest post with high quality content.

Submitting your blog to web directories is a good method to create backlinks, for this submit your blog to various web directories, but remember that you should submit your blog only to quality web directories.

Keep these things in mind while creating backlinks:

Backlinks can be very helpful for your site, but if you create backlinks using wrong methods then it can be very harmful for your site. Therefore, keep the following things in mind while creating backlinks for your site:

  • Try to get backlinks for your site from quality sites only.
  • Never get paid backlinks from Fiverr etc. sites.
