Backlinks are incoming links from other websites to your domain. They are a major ranking factor in search engines, with links from high [[domain-authority|authority]] domains carrying more weight. The quality and relevance of backlinks matter more than quantity.
Example
A single backlink from The New York Times (DA 95) is worth more than hundreds of links from low-quality directories.
