Here\u2019s a simple truth: a strong backlink portfolio helps your website rank higher. Each good backlink shows search engines that your site is trustworthy and more important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let’s take a look at SayNine’s backlinks profile. In 2023, SayNine had 65 referring domains with a Domain Rating of 37.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SayNine website now has 464 referring domains, and its DR has grown to 60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Getting valuable backlinks from authoritative websites has improved our website\u2019s rankings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Further reading: Now, let\u2019s go through some effective link building strategies that helped us create strong backlink profiles for our clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We provide our clients with non-shitty backlinks coming from websites that meet the following criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n It means that behind the website you get a backlink from is a real business offering actual products or services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From our perspective, we only provide SaaS backlinks<\/a> to SaaS websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why? Because those backlinks signal search engines that other SaaS businesses consider your website trustworthy and valuable. This, in turn, results in better rankings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stay away from toxic backlinks<\/a>, like those from private blog networks (PBNs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n These websites are made to boost a site’s search rankings unnaturally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some people engage in those practices to quickly boost a website’s search engine position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But why should you avoid it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s the truth: PBN backlinks might help you at first, but in the long run, they do more harm than good. Google sees them as spam and against the rules. This can cause your site to lose rankings or even get penalized by Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To understand dofollow backlinks, it\u2019s important to know what nofollow means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n No follow links have a rel=”nofollow” <\/em>tag in their code, which tells Google not to crawl the linked page or pass ranking value to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do follow links don\u2019t have this tag, so they pass ranking power or so-called link juice<\/a> to the target page. That\u2019s why we ensure these backlinks are dofollow to help our clients\u2019 websites get ranking benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, let\u2019s understand how to check whether your link is nofollow or dofollow<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can inspect the backlink directly on the webpage. All you need to do is right-click the backlink and choose “Inspect”<\/em> or “View Page Source.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Look at the <a><\/em> tag. If it contains rel=”nofollow<\/em>“, then the link is nofollow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If there is no real attribute or it doesn’t contain those values, then it’s a dofollow link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also use the NoFollow Chrome extension<\/a>, which highlights in red all the nofollow links on a page automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This helps you make sure your backlinks provide SEO value to what they are linking to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your anchor text is extremely important for creating a strong link profile. It should fit the page it points to, so readers know what to expect when they click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We check user intent to make sure the link matches what people are looking for. If the anchor text is “logo generator,” check whether Google shows landing pages or blog posts to understand if users are searching for a tool or for informational content. This helps us pick the right page and use anchor text that fits. Since Google shows product pages for “logo generator” searches, we link to our client\u2019s landing pages with this anchor text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Typically, our client shares with us their target pages with anchor texts. However, we also share our recommendations and suggestions and start working on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s discuss one of SayNine’s <\/a>case studies<\/a>. One of the important anchor texts we worked on for our client was “customer loyalty trends<\/em>.” Result? Our client\u2019s website moved up 12 spots, from 13th to 1st position for this search term\u2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n What worked right? Consistently getting to the authoritative backlinks while targeting the right anchor text\u2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n Further reading: Google now more than ever prefers content that truly helps readers. So, backlinks should be placed in content that makes sense and adds value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Ahrefs](\"https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Frame-27.png\")
