Bit of a difficult vague question but what does google consider "quality" backlinks? I have and english schools in japan so if I posted my link in an ESL discussion forum is that a "quality" link? I have my website linked to websites that list local schools and have short descriptions of them, is that a "quality" back link? What about articles in free articles directory sites? I think most of my google problems stem from my site being less than a month old

With the forums does it matter what those forums are? Is it best to spread out the posts in different forums?

Hey there,

Quality backlinks are links from websites that have a high pagerank (PR) and are related to your niche.

For example, for a real estate website, I would want to get affiliates websites that have a high PR in niches like real estate, mortgage sites, and even fishing websites since there may be properties around a lake.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
Travis Walters

I have found what Travis states above to be true and successful. While I haven't utilized article submission to this point it will be my next endeavor over the winter to try to further my page rankings in my weaker geographical locations.

Quality backlinks are those links related to your site.

For example, if your site's theme is related to movies, then the relevant links are those that are under the entertainment category... It doesn't matter what the PR is as long as they are related to you... You can gather quality links thru directory submissions

The anchor text should contain keyword . The site which provides back link should be of high Page rank and that should be related to your site keyword, These are main things for quality back links .

Hey there,

While the definition of a quality backlink does not pertain to PR, related websites that have a high PR have more influence than those without it.

Get your backlinks from high PR websites that are related to your niche.

Trust me, you will come up in the rankings.

The real estate website I just created is ranked on the first page for the majority of the keyword phrases.

Good luck.

Sincerely,
Travis Walters

Actually, badly put.

Notice that the methods of getting links given above are all initiated by the web site owner i.e. the web site owner requests those links. Links that are given voluntarily, without asking for them are worth far more because of the reasons they were given - the linker actually thought your content was good.

Also be aware that link exchanges are seen as link schemes by Google and are not held in high regard.

Exchanging links is not bad at all considering the factors "Quality" is a must! With a high PR(for some)
and the relevance of your site to the other and also the traffic given by the other site that may be
a potential customer.

to me quality backlink is link from relevant site and authority sites. link from sites with not too many OBL so it won't dilute too much of the PR vote. backlink that are coming from different type of sites such regular website, blog, article directory, web directory, forum, social site or classified ads.

link of your site from a well ranked, relevant and related site.

even a PR 9 site is useless if its not related to your site, and SE would just count is as a normal link
