What are backlinks?
I have my own online store. Recently, sales have dropped noticeably, because there are a lot of competitors. But you have to fight for a place in the sun, so I’m looking for a person who will be able to promote and raise my site in search engines. One friend recommended that I buy backlinks, but I have no idea what it is and where to buy them. I did not want to look stupid, so I did not ask him, and decided to ask here. Tell me please, what is backlinks?
Backlinks, also known as inbound links or incoming links, are links from one website to another. They are crucial for search engine optimization (SEO) because search engines like Google use them as indicators of the popularity or relevance of a website.
When one website links to another, it’s essentially a signal to search engines that the linked-to site has valuable content. Search engines then consider such sites more credible and relevant, which can positively impact their search engine rankings.
Backlinks are a fundamental aspect of SEO because they not only drive direct traffic from the linking site but also contribute to a website’s authority and trustworthiness in the eyes of search engines. However, it’s important for backlinks to come from reputable and relevant sources; low-quality or spammy backlinks can actually harm a site’s SEO performance.
