Quality matters. Probably User recommendation backlinks (if genuine) have weight

More proof
Waste your time if you want.

 

^^^ 80% of the links to those cam sites I posted are affiliate links of *poor* quality -- elgoog doesn't care -- why is that? Together those websites I posted make maybe $70 Million dollars A MONTH.

What maybe 50% have in common are millions (per day) of branded type-in direct visits. User loyalty

Junk links are just ignored usually
Links from known link *farms* or paid links might get some real penalty.

Prove me wrong with specific cases and I'll listen

That means it’s mission critical to optimize for engagement.


In other words: Optimize for PEOPLE! Write headlines that will make them click and then reward them for that click by publishing amazing and memorable content that will make them want to stay on your site and share your stuff. <<<

I think backinks are an old style SEO business practice (c.2008), e.g.; trading and buying links.
