How to Successfully Outsource Link Building
It’s time to improve your SEO game. With the industry moving at lightning speed, it’s…
One of the most important features in your SEO strategy is to include high-quality backlinks – between your website and that of another reputable and relevant site – in order to enhance your search engine results pages (SERPs) positioning. If you’ve nailed your backlinks, you’ll have a far greater chance of appearing high in Google’s search results; poor backlinks, meanwhile, can actually serve to demote your website, leaving it in a lower position than if it had no linksHyperlinks, also known as links, are the connection points on a webpage that take you to other webpages. whatsoever.
To optimize your backlink strategy, a thorough audit and indexing process will help you to make smart decisions to improve your search engine performance.
A backlink is a hyperlink that sits on another organization or individual’s website and links to your own. This might seem like a positive situation – after all, it’ll bring your website new traffic if web users follow the link, and there are SEO benefits to having your website linked to from unrelated URLs.
While all this may be true in theory, in practice it’s a little more complex. For instance, if the site you’re connected to via a backlink is ranked poorly by Google, this link can actually serve to damage the positioning of your website in search engine results pages. As such, you need to be both aware of the structure of your backlink matrix – where the sites that link to yours are located – and able to quash damaging backlinks when they arise – something the Click Intelligence Team are at hand to help you with.
Backlinks are not only useful hyperlinks for web users to follow to find relevant and high-quality content linked to your page – they’re signs you present to Google algorithms that your website is trustworthy, and therefore worth showing higher in the search engine’s results pages. Without backlinks, you’re unlikely to impress these algorithms, but with poor backlinks, you may actually make your website’s ranking lower. Poor backlinks might include:
Avoid, at all costs, these types of backlinks if you wish to make the most out of your hyperlinked website, linking only to high-quality, high-ranked sites and making sure the content that you link to is relevant and professional. Finally, you’ll need to index your backlinks to ensure they’re displayed and clear for Google’s algorithms to work their magic on them.
So, as a website with content that’s been consciously optimized to improve your SERPs, you’ll already have some backlinks on other sites that you feel are of high quality – likely, you believe, to generate a higher position on Google’s search results. But the only way to truly be appreciative of the SEO advantages of the particular links that you’ve inserted is to assess your backlink through an audit and analysis process.
To conduct a backlink analysis, you’ll first need to conduct a backlink audit. The Click Intelligence Team are at hand to conduct this audit for you in order to ensure that you’re operating in an effective, efficient and optimal manner with your backlinks.
As you’d expect, backlink audits involve our team tracing (or ‘crawling’) through each page that backlinks to your website in order to find all the links that Google analyses, and to follow these links in order to understand the blueprint of all the websites that link up to yours. There are many benefits to conducting an audit such as this every now and then, including:
When conducting a backlink audit, it’s important to keep track of the pages that you audit for backlinks so that you can avoid repeating them. You may find mistakes that have been damaging your search results listings, and displaying you as a worse-quality site than you happen to be. Our team are experienced in conducting this kind of comprehensive audit for you.
When you look through your backlinks, you shouldn’t only be concerned by the quality of the links and the appearance of the websites you link to – you should also bear in mind that your backlink audit should take into account the indexing of your backlinks.
Indexing is a simple process for the specialists – such as OneHourIndexing – but it’s a difficult part of the backlink audit process to get right on your own.

It’s worth noting that there are several trusted providers of backlink indexing on the internet, though OneHourIndexing are seen as some of the best, most efficient and best-value providers in the industry – through they keep their automation secrets close to their chest.
