SEO & Search
Backlink
A link from another website pointing to yours. Backlinks from relevant, reputable sites act as a trust signal for both traditional search engines and AI systems, indicating that other sources consider your content worth referencing.
Why it matters
Search engines treat backlinks as votes of confidence — more (relevant, quality) votes generally means higher trust and rankings.
