It all starts with if you have a page you can dedicate for that keyword. If you do, then great, if you don't then you'd probably need to build a page for that keyword. Once you have an SEO-optimized article, you can then start talking about building backlinks.
My company's created a free report, where you can insert your target keyword and target landing page, and it'll take what's currently in the SERPs and give you a recommendation on how many backlinks you'll need to compete. Feel free to create one here (https://www.basesearchmarketing.com/what-it-takes-to-rank-tool/). Let me know if you have any other questions!

I believe it depends on how much competition there is in your industry as well as how reliable your website is. As a general rule, if you are in a highly competitive industry, you will need more backlinks. In a less competitive industry, you will want fewer backlinks. If your website is not very authoritative, then you will need more backlinks on your website, and if it is very authoritative, then you will need fewer backlinks.
As always, it's imperative to keep in mind that there are a variety of other factors that can affect your search engine rankings, including on-page optimization, the freshness of your content, etc., so these numbers can differ depending on the niche or industry in which you're competing.
-
@arainbadami per page you will need at least 50 QUALITATIVE backlinks. An exception is the home page where you need at least 100, again qualitative backlinks. Bear in mind you need excellent content and authoritative forums.
-
Keep in mind it's not just the number of backlinks but the relevancy and quality of those links. Analyze the profiles of the pages you are competing against to start.
-
Hi, The nowadays the ranking factor has been changed it's totally depends on you content quality and structure what type of content you post on your website example pradhanmantriyojanaa.in no backlinks have but they get ranked on page top page.
So that mean to focus on trending and answerable content to get rank with the less backlinks.
-
I really depends on the quality of the content.
-
It depends on the competition in your industry and how authoritative your website is. In general, you need more backlinks if you are in a competitive industry and less if you are in a less competitive industry. You also need more backlinks if your website is not very authoritative and fewer if your website is very authoritative.
But again, it's important to remember that there are many other factors that come into play when it comes to ranking, such as on-page SEO, content freshness, etc., so these numbers can vary depending on the specific niche or industry you're competing in.
-
@arainbadami it depends upon your niche and complexity of the Keyword you want to rank for.
-
The first position in the search engines is not given to the one who obtains a certain number of links. The first position is given to the one with the most links, as well as the most qualitative ones.
So the goal is to have more links than your competitors have.
That's why you must always keep an eye on your competitors and get links at a higher rate than they get, in order to surpass them.
If you can't do it yourself, there are agencies that create SEO strategies for you after extensive and continuous analyses of your competitors. -
The number of backlinks needed grows faster than the difficulty rating. For example, if a keyword has a difficulty of 10, you probably need about 10 backlinks to rank. But if it has a complexity of 50, you might need 100 backlinks to rank.
-
The number of backlinks you need to make depends upon the SEO competition of thecurrent keyword you want to rank for, as well as your current domain authority and the number of competitors iin your industry. These factors pave way for your upcoming SEO strategy , but you need to continue building backlink pages regularly even after achieving initial results. If you are new to SEO, you can consult a top digital marketing consultant who will create a digital marketing strategy which will keep your rank solidified in search engine results pages.
-
It all depends upon your keyword's difficulty level and the competition in your target area. If the competition is low you have a greater chance to rank your website only On-page otherwise you need to go for off-page techniques too.
-
It all depends on the number of keywords and competitiveness level. For contrast, lets take low competition keywords, you will need approximately 15 to 25 for proper link building service. For keywords that are higher in ranking, you will need around 55 to 100 or more backlinks for link building. Each case can vary depending on any website’s domain authority. I suggest checking out Your SEO Shop. They have blogs with quality information regarding SEO. -
It really depends on the keywords you are trying to rank high with Google that determines the backlink count you need. Most important is the quality of your website's content, if it is not good then sending potential customers there will be a waste of time and money. You will get free links if your content is awesome. Also, link building is very important you have to go make backlinks from relevant stuff also one of the most important backlinks is link insertion that will rank you higher.
hope it works

The number of backlinks you need to rank really depends on the keywords you are trying to rank high for in Google search results. Most important is the quality of the content on your website, if the quality is not good then sending potential customers to your website will be a waste of energy. Make your content awesome and people will link for free.

@arainbadami bro you need quality backlinks to rank it does not matter how much, no one told you about the exact number of backlinks every one say that you need quality backlinks .

@arainbadami Hi,
You need to beat him with value added quality content. If backlinks are your focus then focus on gaining contextual backlinks like niche edits or guest posts - rather than creating more backlinks than your competitor.

.edu backlinks.. where to point them for a scholarship
Hello, My company offers an annual college scholarship to Women in Business. I have numerous colleges that have agreed to post our scholarship on their college websites. I want to make sure I get the full value of the .edu backlink and need some advice. I have a brand new scholarship page with no authority and that's basically orphaned from the rest of the website. This page details the application process for the scholarship. If I were to link out to my home page, and say 3-4 other top landing pages, would this be the best way to flow some of that link juice into my site? Or is there a better way to do this? Another thought I had was this.... I could take one of my top landing pages, www.example.com/example, and place the scholarship information on that page at the bottom, and have the school link to this: www.example.com/example#scholarship (so the scholarship info appears on top when applicants click it)-- My question here is this... becase the second URL includes an anchor, does google treat that as a different page? Or would the pagerank flow to www.example.com/example ? Recovering from unnatural link warnings and algorthmic penalties and trying to get the best benefit out of the new, quality links I'm building. Any advise would be appreciated! THANKS!

Backlink?
This is probably going to sound like the silliest question ever, but I have to ask. Does an article that requires a subscription to read count as a backlink? Is there any difference in that type of backlink as opposed to one that doesn't require a subscription? Thanks.

Do you need a place to ditch bad links?
This is not a question as such, more a gift 🙂 I have registered a domain name to ditch bad links. For example, let's pretend I have a page on my site: www.mydomain.com/viagra and have never done any good SEO to promote this page, just a load of spammy directory links. The page used to rank for Viagra but then Google took manual action and I lost my ranking. Booo! Now the page is of no use to me until I get all these links removed and the manual action revoked. Even then, I'll be starting from scratch re-building good links to the page. Here's another option, simply re-direct the url to badlinksbin.com and say goodbye to all those spammy links. This bypasses the lengthy link removal process. Warning: I wouldn't recommend using this method if you have some good links in the mix, unless you can contact the site owners and get the links changed. And, don't forget to change the name of the url first so the Viagra page still exists on your site. As I've already set this up, I thought no harm sharing it and letting you guys use it too. I hope it helps some people.

Backlinks from SEOMOZ
Hi all It seems Google has stepped up the "hunt" for overly SEOed websites. What about having backlinks from SEOMOZ, would that signal to Google that you are involved in SEO and therefor it might hurt your site? Anyone? Thanks in advance Fredrik Ardmar

Too Many Links???
SEOMOZ is telling me I have more than 100 links on quite a few of my pages, and I cant seem to find out what links they are finding. Like for instance on this page http://standupguys.biz/what-we-haul/commercial-junk-removal-services/computer-removal-recycling/ It is telling me that I have 117 hyper links (which is WAY too high). Can anyone explain to me where these are coming from, and how I can avoid this?? Please and thank you.

Ranking dropping for certain keyword
Hi There, Just wondering what has happened to my rankings as I cant seem to understand it. In the past week we've dropped from page 1 to page 10 for a certain keyword. The URL is also different that google displays - instead of displaying the individual page it now just links to the main domain. All the other keywords have remained consistent and some have improved. The page is still in the Google Index if I manually search for it. There hasn't been any dramatic change to the page except I've created a few links to it. Have we been penalized by Google and is there anything I can do?
