  • Unless you sites quality can greatly exceed the target site you will be hard pressed to overcome that many backlinks.

      It depends what sort of backlinks they are. If they're from relevant sites, that's going to be very tough competition. If they're not, it might be trivially easy. (If they're mass-submitted/auto-submitted/software-built backlinks, they might well be more of a liability than a help to the site).

      It doesn't have all that much to do with "numbers of backlinks", in other words: it's actually about quality and relevance. (Most things in internet marketing are!). You can see this for yourself from the way that sites with few backlinks (relevant ones!) are outranking sites with thousands or tens of thousands of crappy backlinks, in Google's SERP's.

      This is the place to discuss it, anyway: Adsense / PPC / SEO Discussion Forum

  • you guys are right!

    One website has over a 1 million backlinks which is ranking number two in Google page
    but one site ranking 6th on the Google page has only 686 backlinks...

    ..........two different sites competing for four word phrase but the 6th has small number of backlinks still made it to the first page of google.....

    Observation: the site that is listed 6th on google page, has very good content and its URL Head is optimized, whereas the site rank number one has all adds in it less quality content.

    Comes down to quality content and relevance of key words to the site?

    thanks
  • Links have different values in Google's eyes. So, you can have situations where 100,000 of "one" kind of links may be worth less than - literally - a dozen of "another" kind.

    In MOST cases, when sites have THOUSANDS of links to their various pages, you can be 99.99% sure that their links are worthless. And this means that if you stick to QUALITY linking, you should be able to beat them easily.

    • How do you describe a site with good quality content? What do you look for? How does Google knows that such site has a good quality content?

  • Forget your competitors, do your own, this would help you.. and linking to all your competitor backlinks is not good SEO technique, Google would see that two website has the same link profile.

      I rather admire this philosophy, but in reality having a look at your potential top competitors' backlinks is one of the ways that people (including even people as uninterested in SEO as I am) use to select their keywords in the first place ... ("just saying") ...
