Backlinks are an SEO tool which is rapidly growing in popularity. What makes a good link? Here are three qualities of a good link:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Solid Anchor Text<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Anchor Text is the words used to put the link in the content. When you read blog posts, it will usually be highlighted and underlined in a different color to denote that it is a link. To form natural links, using context and the flow of content to word anchor text properly is key. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Relevance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    A good link will be relevant to the content of your site, and any external sites you may want to link to. While developing niche content is valuable in some aspects of SEO, in links, it is best to keep the topic broad to ensure long-term relevance to a wide population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Placement<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Where you place your links matters. It is important to not bury your links, or they will never be used. Likewise, you don’t want to put your links too early or the rest of the content will be ignored. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
