Building the right links to your website
Backlinks are important for driving more traffic to a website. Links from other websites provide a direct path to the site for anyone who clicks on them. Backlinks from reputable websites can improve a site's SEO (search engine optimization) and boost its ranking in search engine results. That means more people may find the site when searching for its keywords.
