How many backlinks needed for #1 Position on Google

By • Dec 3rd, 2008 • Category: SEO Advice

There are two main elements to SEO optimisation – on page SEO factors and off page factors. On page factors reflect the structure and design of your pages. For help on on page factors – see this article: On Page SEO factors

Off Page SEO factors

Just as there are many on page SEO factors, there are also many off page. However, it is agreed that getting quality links from authority sites is a critical factor in top SERPs. Here is some guidance:

  • One Way Links – not reciprocal or 3 way links (Google can detect both!)
  • Links from authority sites – do a search for your keyword on Google. Sites on page 1are deemed by Google to be important (that is why they are on page 1). Strictly these are not necessarily “authority” sites but beg, borrow or …. links from these sites.
  • Request a link on THAT page which is listed on page 1 of google (may not be the home page)
  • Choose a “keyword / keyword phrase” that is relevant to the page – use that as the anchor text
  • Link to your site page which is relevant to “keyword / keyword phrase” – use that url for the anchor url
  • Do not always link to your home – deep links are very important
  • Vary the anchor text

Getting the links from these top sites may not be easy – be prepared to bribe them with incentives ….

    The trick, if there is such a thing, is variety. Make certain you collect a steady and varied collection of links
