My company got 1st rank at the keyword with KD of 90+. We used a lot of anchored backlinks from topic-related forums.

**johan_s** · 21 December 2020, 3:09 am

That is great work. Can you tell us more what kind of anchors you did use when posting on the forums?

We used a few variations of keyword, like 'online casinos', 'casinos online'. But we have aged profiles (1-2 years of activity), with full bio + personal threads. Additionally, we used tier2-3 links to that profiles. Btw, profiles are real. All of us have valid linkedin profiles, real facebook accounts and etc.

One backlink that you insert in a post seem more natural than one that you put it in footer.php, at least in your content of your landing page.

**tome1122** · 22 January 2021, 5:27 am

I think so guest blogging backlinks.

**infocasino** · 26 January 2022, 3:56 am

A website with high authority.

All backlinks are good if they related to your website's topic/niche. Guest blogging or answering thematic forum threads are the best choice for me.

Disagree with this to a degree.

Backlinks from spammy sites or sites that have been penalized can be harmful whether in the niche or not.
Backlinks from sites that are built mostly just to sell links and guest posts etc, can be harmful whether in the niche or not.

While forum links can be effective to a degree, as far back as 2012 and 2014 warnings had surfaced to be careful with forum links.

I think over usage of forum links certainly can be bad, so having them as the main choice is where the problem could lie. Having sig links at forums you are active and participate a lot, if within the niche you target probably will not be harmful, but do not expect huge boosts.

I thought this article from digital web solutions defined some of the various link types and the good or bad surrounding them rather well.

Inserted into relevant content is always king!

**Raúl Jimenez** · 8 February 2022, 8:28 am

Get many good links, and Google immediately knows you’re someone whose content people deserve to see. Get many spam backlinks, and watch your rankings go down the drain.

**whitebox** · 11 February 2022, 1:17 pm

guestpost and outreach)) And maybe web 2 0

Since Google still uses Page rank, https://twitter.com/JohnMu/status/1232014208180592641 it is best to get a link from a page that already has many good links from other sites.

**universal4** · 21 February 2022, 5:51 pm

To imply that google still uses page rank is a little off, and he should have explained better.

Google completely changed how they rank pages and stating it in that manner gives people a false sense of what the ranking of pages is based on, and FAR too often seo wannabe's point to such statements and say, "see pr is still in effect", then they show the false pr reader's or checker's so they can manipulate such numbers for clients when billing.

ALL search engines use an "internal" page rank system. Sad the entire webmaster industry participants help create what was "pr" years ago, and it's funny watching some spout how it is still in effect.

I think the statement by JohnMu should have been followed up with a better explanation in additional tweets to define his position.

I do agree with dingo in that links are still a factor, and getting links from other pages that also have links pointing at them is a good thing, but ONLY IF ON TOPIC. Links from general interest sites, shopping sites, and sites that are not in the genre you are targeting not only may have less value but can also hurt.

But how do you explain that thousands of review sites buy links from sites like sosket.io.

People from the gambling niche place links everywhere, for the simple reason that niche sites are spammed, too many review sites and too few niche sites.

**universal4** · 22 February 2022, 4:51 pm

Some people believe, a link is a link is a link.

And you used the correct word, spam.

Some people spam links any where they can get them, and some people do not.

Those with LONG TERM successful large authoritative sites almost always do NOT just get links any where they can get them, and concentrate getting links only from on topic relevant sites.

Some people also continue to read, and follow seo advice from 20 years ago, when it mattered less where the links came from and massive cross linking worked, odp still existed and crappy directory links worked.

Many of the old school things have changed.

Even John which you referenced said

It's not quite the same as the original paper, there are lots of quirks (eg, disavowed links, ignored links, etc.), and, again, we use a lot of other signals that can be much stronger.

It's hard to disagree with you, big players like Catena Media have the ability to get links from topic relevant sites like affiliate programs, event sites, etc.

But let's search for "online casinos australia" as an example.

And in google Australia I see the domain online-casinos-australia.com. We all remember the Google EMD Update and, in theory, using EMD is old school, but this site has been on the 2nd position in Google since last summer.

And this site (according to ahrefs) has no topical relevant links, but it has links from timebusinessnews.com, technofaq.org, californianewstimes.com - those are the sites that sell hundreds and thousands links.

So in my opinion, there are two parallel worlds, in one world we hear what Mueller says, and in the other world we see what actually works.

You might say it's not a long game, and again I agree with you, but we're all playing the Google field, even the big authority sites are losing traffic from Google update to Google update.

I'm sure all these SEO mechanics work here for the simple reason that Google doesn't make money here, they don't manually check the search results and they don't manually kick out sites. In niches where google sees money, like tickets and hotels, other players, no matter how reputable they are, no matter how great their links are, die.

I agree that content is the king! but also diversity. Your links need to seem "natural" for google. is all that matters to my opinion and experience.
Use No follow tags as well. Longtails and even links to articles with your link to your site.

Thanks,
Benjamin Rojes.
