I’m a bit confused about link building strategies and implementation of high DA links and why it’s best to get links from well established websites yet I see competition profiles full of what looks to be spammy links, paid blog list etc, am I right in thinking it’s best to have more dofollow than no follow and what’s the significance of the ratio of number of referring domains to number of backlinks why do only some show up on different tools used?

@Ranilulu we are a B2B ecommerce company too. I feel we should focus more on technical seo and real content. Something your customers will read over and over again. It takes real experience (technical) and time to write such content however I feel even one quality article like this which truly helps customers in your market will go a long ways in increasing your visibility organically. We do this too. Sam from <a href="https://www.ucanpack.com/">Ucanpack</a>

@Tom-Capper What would be your approach if you have a site on a brand new domain like https://coinlabz.com/ ? I believe we publish good and linkable content, but since the site metrics are low, it will be harder to acquire links naturally.
What would you recommend?

Hey there!
Your backlink strategy can involve a variety of tactics, such as creating high-quality content that other websites will want to link to, reaching out to other website owners and asking for links, or participating in link building campaidgns or exchanges.
It's important to note that not all backlinks are created equal, and having a high number of low-quality links can actually harm your website's SEO. Therefore, it's important to focus on acquiring relevant, high-quality backlinks from reputable websites.
I wouldn't know what your strategy should be as I don't know what your final goals are. Though here you can find some actional steps that are included in almost every link-building strategy:
Creating high-quality content: One of the best ways to acquire backlinks is by creating valuable and informative content that other websites will want to link to. This can include things like in-depth research articles, informative blog posts, infographics, and videos.
Guest blogging: Another way to acquire backlinks is by guest blogging on other websites in your industry. This is a great way to get your content in front of a new audience and to establish yourself as a thought leader in your industry. When you guest blog, you can typically include a link back to your own website in your author bio or in the body of the post.
Broken link building: This strategy involves identifying broken links on other websites in your industry, and then reaching out to the website owner to let them know about the broken link and suggesting a replacement link to one of your own pages.
Direct Outreach: Reach out to website owners, editors, and other relevant contacts, and ask them to link to your content.
One thing to remember is that link-building is not an easy task, it requires time, effort and a well-thought strategy. It's a long-term strategy, and the results may take some time to appear. So don't give up if you don't see immediate results, it's just not how things work in this business.

Sorry for the slow reply.
You can definitely obtain relevant traffic from sites like these, but links are likely to be nofollow.

@haris313 said in Backlinking Strategy:
What should be my link-building strategy?
Link building is the process of acquiring links from other websites to your own website, with the goal of improving your search engine rankings and driving traffic to your site. However, it's important to note that not all links are created equal, and the quality of the links you acquire can have a significant impact on your website's performance.
Using a tool like https://rush-analytics.com/land/backlinks-spam can be helpful for identifying and analyzing links to your website, but it's important to use this tool as part of a comprehensive link-building strategy, rather than relying on it as the sole source of information.
Here are a few strategies you might consider as part of a link-building campaign:
Publish high-quality, informative content that other websites will want to link to.
Reach out to other websites and ask for links, but be sure to provide value in return (such as linking to their content from your own site).
Participate in relevant online communities and forums, and provide valuable insights and resources that others will want to link to.
Use social media to promote your content and encourage others to share your links.
Monitor your backlinks using the tool and actively work to remove any spammy or low-quality links pointing to your website.
It's important to approach link building with a long-term perspective, as it can take time and effort to build a strong, diverse link profile. However, by following best practices and focusing on creating high-quality content and relationships, you can develop a link-building strategy that will help drive traffic and improve your website's search engine performance.

Does anyone can share some backlink strategy for an e-commerce website? We are an e-commerce company with the brand name VANCARO. We just start the link buidling recently.

@Tom-Capper
I have read your advice.
I take this opportunity to consult you:
Do you think that sites like reedit, quora or forums like that can send some relevant traffic to blogs in Spanish?
A few months ago I started https://mundocm.net/telefonos-servicio-al-cliente-falabella/ and I'm having a hard time finding relevant sites to ask for a link.
Sometimes, what is more difficult is to find relevant sites from the country where the blog's theme is aimed.
If you have any suggestions, it would be appreciated. -
It's certainly possible to attain a DA 30. My recommendation is find similar sites in your niche that have at/around DA 30 and dig into their backlink profile, see how many backlinks and what number DA's associated. After you've done your research, come up with a strategy similar to that. It's the exact method I'm using for a domain like: [https://ruffrug.com](link url)
-
@irau creating longer form articles with illustrations or graphics is a really good suggestion. Thank you so much for it. I'll have to manage it by myself one way or the other until I build a good reliable team of my own.
-
@Tom-Capper Thank you so much for your time. I'll start working on some good shareable resources right away!!
-
@haris313 Certain backlinks can shoot your DA right up to 45, which a solid score, but doesn't guarantee valuable traffic by any means.
I recommend creating longer form articles with illustrations or graphics to make reading them more dynamic.
This can be very time consuming for just one person, so it helps to have another team member assisting with developing topics, proof reading and helping with graphics.
-
In some ways, aiming for a specific DA is probably not the right approach. DA is a useful metrc for predicting how well a site might rank against another, all things being equal, but there's a lot of nuance to what might help you succeed for a given query.
That said, for newer sites, some links are certainly helpful. There's no one way to go about it.
I'd suggest for a new blog, start by producing some resources you feel others might find useful, entertaining, or otherwise remarkable. Then, find ways to get these in front of people who might consider linking to you from their own sites - perhaps share the resources with your social media followers, email journalists from relevant publications, or engage with platforms like Reddit or forums.

Footer backlink for/to Web Design Agency
I read some old (10+ years) information on whether footer backlinks from the websites that design agencies build are seen as spammy and potentially cause a negative effect. We have over 150 websites that we have built over the last few years, all with sitewide footer backlinks back to our homepage (designed and managed by COMPANY NAME). Semrush flags some of the links as potential spammy links. What are the current thoughts on this type of footer backlink? Are we better to have 1 dofollow backlink and the rest of the website nofollow from each domain?

Unsolved Are links from staff profile pages no longer good for SEO?
Hey there, We run a small site that lists lawyers and we have an opportunity to ask the lawyers to display a 'badge' on their own website's staff page, linked back to the page on our site that they are listed on. Initially I thought this would be good link building (i.e. the lawyer's own staff/profile pages on their website linking to our site where they are listed = a highly relevant link). I was less concerned about the authority of the law firm's sites, though these will range from sometimes low-ish to medium. I just assumed that Google would see the value in the lawyer wanting to link to our site where they are listed. However, our SEO has said that these days Google doesn't give much/any value to these types of links from individual staff pages. His advice was to try and get the badge added to one of their service pages (or their About page) which will be unlikely as the badge is person-specific. I thought I'd ask if this was everyone else's experience regarding Google not valuing links from individual staff pages? Thanks for you help 🙂

Backlinks embedded in posts or backlinks in sidebar?
What's better? A backlink to my site, embedded into a blog post/article? Or a hardlink in the sidebar? The problem with links embedded inside articles, is that when the blog linking to me, gets updated, the articles disappear from first page and I lose the link from home page. How do you deal with this? I also read this: "The best link you can get is from a site ranking #1 for the keyword you want to rank for. It would be great to have the #1 site for a desired keyword linking me even if they are a PR 0 site." Is this right? Thx in advance.

Creating Backlinks On Behalf of Client
I'm on my first SEO project with a law firm. I'm at the stage where I am doing competitive backlink research on other law firms that my client gave me. I saw a blog site called typepad. It has a high domain authority so I was going to recommend to my client that they set up an account and blog away! Since it's a law firm, I am not qualified to start blogging on behalf of my client and I know they are extremely busy so now I have to "ride" my client to get busy and start creating content. I feel like I want to do more for them on the blog side to keep things going but not having a law background, probably not doable. Question: Do most SEO's do the blogging for their clients, farm it out or keep pushing their clients to do it? I also want them to sign up with articlebase but the same thing is going to happen. I have to push them to write articles. I guess this is my job? -Bob

How good is a backlink that's in the footer
Hello, The strongest site in our industry (according to domain authority and excluding wikipedia) said that they would put a sitewide link to us in their footer. We're good friends with them. It would be right next to the copyright. Our site is nlpca (dot) com The partner site is nlpu (dot) com The link will say something like "More NLP Training" with the "NLP" as the link. We're targeting the keyword "NLP" How much will this move us up for the keyword "NLP"? Right now we're on the 3rd page for that term. I also want to make sure that it's a white hat move. Thanks!

Press Release Sites for Backlinks
OK, I read a previous thread about whether people found press release sites useful (specifically I am considering a reputable pay for release service). I understand the knock on press releases in this digital age (namely that no one reads them and arguably never did . . . ), but I was interested in moving the discussion in a different direction . . . Do press releases services really help a sites performance based on increased backlinking? Is there a SEO benefit to PR services? My company is a local print company. I've done quite a bit of research on my local competitors, and specifically for a couple products we would like to dominate. The good news is that it looks like the hurdle would not be terribly high to really take over the web presence with a well planned and executed website/SEO campaign. My inclination is that for a relatively small company like mine (dealing with relatively small competitors) it WOULD benefit me to pay for the sheer number of backlinks a PR program would generate. The monthly cost is frankly about the same as the cost of this site, which OF COURSE I get value from (hey moderator, how about a couple extra MOZ points for that one!) Specifically, I am looking at this for myself, but feel free to expand the question to the broader topic.
