What are backlinks in SEO?
A backlink is a link that’s created when one website links out to another. Another name for backlinks is inbound or incoming links.
How does a backlink work?
Backlinks pass link juice from page to page which is the amount of authority or value that a link sends to the website it links out to. Links from authoritative and relevant websites get more link juice, and as a result, help pages get higher SERP rankings.
Can backlinks hurt your site?
Quality backlinks let search engines know that a trusted resource confirms the quality of a page’s content. So, links from authoritative sites can boost page rankings. However, backlinks from spammy websites may harm site rankings and even lead to penalties.
