The Link: foundation of all SEO practices
The link has many names: URL, Hyperlink, web link an so on, but remains the same in practice, a colored text, animation or image which, once clicked with the mouse, loads another page in your Internet browser. From SEO point of view the link is the most important element when it comes to ranking well in search engines for special keywords combinations.
Get links to you to win
Why is the link so important?
Look at links like recommendations from friends to watch a particular movie. If you get many recommendations there’s a big chance you’ll get to see it. Also if it gets recommended by someone who has similar tastes you might need just one recommendation to get convinced.
Quantity or quality?
The answer is both: get many quality links, especially if you’re hunting to get on top searches for general terms which have greater competition.
How do I get links?
This is another story that needs another article (or bunch of articles), but the main method to get links is simple “write quality content and people will eventually link to you”, especially if you promote your writings in social media communities.
