How I Pick Quality Websites for Getting Backlinks
Backlinks are one of the most important SEO ranking factors if you want to rank high in Google Search. However, when it comes to backlinks, quality is more important than quantity.
And while you can’t control which websites link to you on their own, you can control the quality of the backlinks that you acquire.
Today I want to show you what I do make sure that I pick only quality websites when purchasing backlinks.
How to Get Backlinks

2. Because everyone is doing it, you can’t rank very high in competitive niches without backlinks
You’ll hear a lot of people say that if you want to get backlinks, you need to create a piece of content that is so good and so useful that people will want to link to it. And I agree with that. But how will they know you wrote it? How will they find it? Simple: by googling about the topic. But guess what? If you want your piece to rank high and get free backlinks, you’ll most likely require backlinks first — which you need to buy.
