olehana
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.

How important is the originating country of backlinks?
How important is it that you gain backlinks from websites in the same country you're targeting? Scenario: You have a website targeting users in Japan. How important is it that backlinks to your website are from Japanese websites? Do you need a majority of links from Japanese websites to rank well, or will you do OK with 25% Japanese links and 75% links from other countries? According to Majestic, sites for popular Japanese brands like tsutaya.co.jp and seiyu.co.jp get more links from US sites than from Japanese sites.

How does Google treat multiple backlinks on the same page?
Hello mozCrew Just a quick yay or nay. We have an embeddable code on our site for customers who want to post our link on their website listed here: http://www.accupos.com/etc/embed-code-restaurants.php But in our link, there are actually 2 separate links, one branding link that says the name of our company, AccuPOS, and another link which targets a specific target keyword "Restaurant POS Software". My question is, does Google only give credit for the branding link, since it is listed FIRST? Or will we get double credit? Is this a good or bad practice, and what would you recommend? Thank you!

Can PR0 backlinks be harmful?
Having a discussion on someone with whether or not PR0 backlinks can be harmful. Managed to find these blog posts that support my argument; http://geoland.org/2011/02/can-bad-links-hurt-your-google-rankings/ http://www.johnmcelborough.com/bad-links-good-site My argument: Things like article spinning and distribution are pretty much pointless. I used UniqueArticleWizard for a while when I first started out with SEO. It gave me around 1000 PR0 backlinks. A few weeks later my site was penalised from PR5 to PR2. Thanks
