This type of link is typically generated when one website references and connects to another, such as within an online article.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Public relations are one of the most reliable ways to generate these backlinks, without running the risk of causing damage to your site health. Journalists include these within their articles to give their writing more purpose. For example, if a reader wants to know more about your brand, they can quickly locate your website directly from the article. What\u2019s more, external linking is also a great way to boost your SEO, bringing you and your brand even greater value than just the exposure great PR brings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those of you who don\u2019t know, SEO (search engine optimisation) is a way for businesses and publications alike to boost their positioning on the search engine results page (SERP). In other words, the more time you spend optimising, the more visible you will be to those searching for your product or service. If you\u2019d like to know more about this marketing technique,&nbsp;just click here.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/why-seo-is-important-for-business\/248101\/\">Understanding the fundamentals of SEO will help you to better understand backlinks.&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-brief-history-of-building-links\">A brief history of building links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/P1390184-1-1024x769.jpeg\" alt=\"Essex marketing firm\" class=\"wp-image-16733 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Before the invention of the Internet, the Yellow Pages was a popular way to discover new businesses. After experiencing a roaring success with their printed publication, they were quick to diversify when the Internet became popular in the late 90\u2019s. Since then, many competitors have been established, and directories have, quite frankly, become ten a penny.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the beginning, signing up to any and every directory on Google would generate your website a new backlink. Organisations were quick to notice this trend and soon jumped on the bandwagon. To begin with, advertising your company on these sites was usually free, meaning that these businesses had nothing to lose, but everything to gain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/google-algorithm-history\/\">Google\u2019s algorithm<\/a> was invented purely so that the platform could differentiate between trustworthy websites and the questionable ones. Of course, in order to keep people using the engine, they need to be able to provide users with the most relevant information. Essentially, their algorithm helps them to dictate this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With backlinks so readily available, this made Googles job of differentiation near impossible. In a bid to get back on track, they updated their algorithm so that it would only give authority to links that came from industry specific or largely popular directories. As you can imagine, this drastically decreased the number of viable backlinks each website now had.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As time goes on, there have been various attempts of retaliation. For example, businesses began spamming online comment sections with their URL to generate links this way. Despite this, Google continue to patch these loopholes. These days, it can be tricky to generate to generate these links, emphasising the importance of outsourcing this task to a&nbsp;link building PR agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-you-should-never-buy-backlinks\">Why you should never buy backlinks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As specialist link builders, we know the difference between a positive backlink, and a harmful one. Trust us, just like buying followers on social media, purchasing backlinks to your website is a big no no.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Non-organic linking can have a hugely detrimental effect on both your site health and SEO value. Typically, these links reference back to a website with very little authority, if any. Links to your site generated from unreliable sources can do far more harm than good, so it\u2019s always best to give this a swerve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a&nbsp;link building PR agency, it\u2019s our job to help your brand secure quality links for your website.
