Backlink

Also known as: Inbound link

Definition

A backlink is a link from another website to yours, treated by search engines as a signal of credibility and authority.

——In depth

A backlink is an incoming link pointing to your site from someone else's. Search engines interpret links as votes of confidence: a page that many reputable sites link to is treated as more trustworthy.

Not all backlinks are equal — a link from a respected, relevant site carries far more weight than one from a low-quality source. Earning backlinks through genuinely useful content is a durable way to build search authority.
