Hi all!
The internet is full of articles about link building along the lines of “choose good sites, avoid bad ones, and pay attention to traffic and content quality.” But for a beginner, this sounds too general, and it’s not always clear how to apply this advice in practice.
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share a specific process for checking a donor site before buying a link. For example, in what order do you look at the metrics, what red flags immediately rule out a site, what do you check manually, and what do you ignore completely?
I’d be grateful if you could share your checklist, approach, or a practical example.
