When we hear the word “Backlinks”, the first thing that comes to our mind is numbers. This site has 100 backlinks, so and so site has 1000 backlinks and so on. But now the numbers game is slowly dying, as building quality backlinks has become much more important than building too many links. Quality and relevant backlinks are two very important considerations in Search Engine Optimization. A backlink from a site that has quality content as well as content related to the theme of your website is much better than a backlink from a inadequately optimized or irrelevant website.

It is way better to get trusted backlinks. Finding sites that have “Real Backlinks” and getting your links on real pages is really cool and winning trust can be done. The only issue here is, it takes a long time to get your links on real pages e.g. the home page of relevant and high PR websites. But at the end of the day, it is worth getting these trusted links than just increasing the volume of links crazily from irrelevant and poorly optimized sites.

Quality backlinks are a must and numbers are not that important anymore. This is the reason why a site might rank high inspite of having a few backlinks.
