Why Does Google Hide Links?
- SEO |
In another thread I gave an example of a site who has the first six spots in Google for a keyword. He has 7,000 links according to ahrefs. Almost ALL are from wordpress footer links and Google only shows 34 links (I thing). I checked Bing and Yahoo and they show similar numbers.
I guess my question for those who really know (if anybody really can know), are those 6,966 backlinks ignored by Google if they're not being displayed? Maybe because they're footer links that's the answer for this site, but is it true for all sites I'm competing against? If it is true, then my competition for the #1 spot for this particular keyword really isn't that tough. I'm just trying to figure out exactly what I'm competing against.
If you were disappointed in your results today, lower your standards tomorrow.
