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 does indexing backlinks affect SEO and search engine rankings?
Indexing backlinks plays a crucial role in the overall SEO strategy and search engine rankings. When search engines like Google crawl and index a website, they also consider the quality and relevance of the backlinks pointing to that site. Here's why indexing backlinks is important: Visibility in Search Results: Indexing ensures that search engines recognize and attribute value to the backlinks you have acquired. When indexed, these backlinks contribute to the overall link profile of your website and can positively impact your visibility in search results. Faster Indexation: By submitting your backlinks for indexing, you can speed up the process of search engines discovering and recognizing those links. This helps search engines recognize the relevance and authority of your website sooner. Enhanced Crawling and Ranking: Indexing allows search engines to crawl and evaluate the backlinks pointing to your site. These backlinks are considered as signals of trust and authority, which can influence your search engine rankings. Improved Domain Authority: When high-quality backlinks pointing to your site are indexed, they contribute to your website's Domain Authority (DA). A higher DA indicates a more authoritative and reputable website, which can positively impact your rankings and organic search visibility. Competitive Advantage: Indexing your backlinks gives you a competitive edge by ensuring that the value and authority of those links are properly recognized and taken into account by search engines. This can help you outrank competitors who may have unindexed or low-quality backlinks. It's important to note that not all backlinks may require manual indexing, as search engines can discover and index them naturally. However, for specific or newly acquired backlinks that may not be indexed quickly, manual submission or using indexing services can help ensure they are recognized by search engines and contribute to your overall SEO efforts.

How to get rid of bad backlinks
So I noticed my rankings going down and spam score going up. So under my spam score there are over 100 links for different websites but ALL redirect to semalt.com I researched it and it says they hijacked a bunched of backlinks but don't know much more. How can I get rid of all those backlinks? I was told I could use the disavow tool but apparently that can hurt my ranking as well. The semalt.com site has no backlink to me - it looks like the pages that have/had my backlinks, they've redirected to them. For instance this is one of the links http://www.oxvideos.xyz/indianantyphotoxxx 422005fb-9240-40a4-8b65-f5b1f5079dea-image.png

Backlink Audit
Hello, I have a quick question for the MOZ readers about my companies current backlink audit. We've noticed many of the backlinks that the Google Webmaster Tool has found come from websites that are no longer in existence or have error messages. Are these websites counting negatively against us or should we ignore them? Thanks! Alex Rubin

Backlinking / Link Building Services
Hello, Our site is struggling organically and one of the key factors (not surprisingly) is a lack of backlinks. We have hired a content writer and are working on a content strategy to generate quality, relevant backlinks. But this is more of a long term project. After reviewing backlinks to our competitors' sites, it seems clear that they are using agencies or services to generate backlinks (most coming from low quality sites). I'm aware that this isn't a good long term strategy (although it seems to be serving them well at the moment). I was hoping the community could provide some insight on products or services out there that provide "safe" backlinking strategies. I don't want to do anything that is going to harm us in the future. I've read a bit on the hoth, and it seems fairly safe and potentially effective, but it's hard find much objective advice on the topic. Any insight is much appreciated - thanks in advance! Jason

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.
