Hello!
You hear a lot of mentors telling us the importance of Backlinks in promoting you website.. Just what are backlinks?
Backlinks...also known as incoming links, inbound links, inlinks, and inward links, are incoming links to a website or web page.Ā Ā In basic link terminology, a backlink is any link received by a web node (web page, directory, website, or top level domain) from another web node.
Ā Their significance lies in search engine optimization (SEO). The number of backlinks is one indication of the popularity or importance of that website or page. ( This is used by Google to determine the PageRank of a webpage). Outside of SEO, the backlinks of a webpage may be of significant personal, cultural or semantic interest: they indicate who is paying attention to that page.
Search engines often use the number of backlinks that a website has as one of the most important factors for determining that website’s search engine ranking, popularity and importance.
In simple language… When you comment on someones blog or website and give your website, that is a backlink.Ā It is also i0mportant to note that the more popular that host website is, the more weight it will carry and the better for you. so it is to yur advantage to leave comments on the ‘bigger’ more popular sites.
