] Today’s Topic: Are All Links Created Equal? [00:50] Think about it from an algorithmic perspective. Would you treat every link the same? [01:05] No, because not all links are equal. [01:30] People used to think you needed the highest domain authority links out there, but that is a Moz metric, not a Google metric. Google doesn’t consider domain authority. [02:00] Instead of going for domain authority, go for the most relevant link. [02:30] Getting contextual links these days is the most effective method. [03:15] Don’t just link to one website. There will be diminishing returns. [03:33] You also want the link to be rich in anchor text. [04:25] Neil spends more money on this than most people, which he admits is a way to cheat. [04:40] Think logically: if it makes sense, if you link to different sources, you will rank higher. [05:02] Build relationships with different sources. [05:20] That’s it for today!
