Hello folks,

What is considered as more significant, creating content or building back links?


JohnVilson

 ;D what came first, the chicken, or the egg.

The way I started out firstly focused on quality content that is unique and keyword rich in areas like the top, center and bottom of the page. If images are part of the content, I would use alt tag to describe the image, but toss in a keyword as well. When I was happy with that, I started working on backlinks.

Hope, It helps.

Both content and backlinks are equally important for your website. Content helps to build your keyword ranking and backlinks help to generate good traffic to your website.

Content: Content is like a King in SEO,google like fresh,quality and unique quality content and to increase potential of your website.Updating fresh contents tends to increase the traffic visit.
Backlink: Backlink is a link back to the pages or one of the pages that currently link to the page you are using. Backlinks are already supported to the some extent in the present web system.

I think that backlinks are important, but nowadays with so many competitors around, your best SEO efforts should be focused on good content. In short backlinks means nothing without good content.

Content is very important in the SEO process because the google will crawl the good quality content and it will increase the rank of website.
Backlinks are the links which can be created to redirect promote the website.

Both of them have the same effect. If you do white-hat SEO, you can't only build link without creating content regularly. If you focus on only creating content with link building, we can get a high rank in the SEs. However, I think content is more significant in the long term
Some big website such as Hubspot, they only focus on content. All most of them is useful for reader => increase traffic => improve ranking => increase traffic and everything goes on that way  !-!
So Content is the most important factor :)

Both of them are important, because they complement each other: you will not be able to get quality backlinks without good content and a good content has no value unless it gets good backlinks. Quality content is necessary for ranking and backlinks help to to build authority to your website.

Both of them are very important for you! As for me, backlinks have more benefits, they are:
1. Increase search engine rankings
2. Traffic generation
3. Generate sales and/or subscribers
4. Become recognized as an authority in your niche
5. Sell advertising
6. Joint ventures

Backlinks are important for a website but present Search engines giving more importance for Content compare to backlinks.
