Something to consider with your backlinks

We all know that on topic backlinks are valuable, but keeping 100% of your backlinks on topic could trigger additional spam filters on your site.

Google expects around 5% - 15% of your backlinks to be off topic, which gives us a great opportunity.

So keep in mind when building your backlinks that things don't have to be perfect and have a little fun when building your links.

Peace.

    Good advice. I always struggle to find enough relevant links so throwing a few non in there works well for me.

    Yeah, also kinda related is it's a good idea to throw in links to other sites on the page instead of just to the main site

    Great tip!

    and don't forget to include a few with 'click here' as your anchor text - Google expects that too )
