Which typical mistakes occur when acquiring backlinks?
No natural growth of links
Build up links steadily over the long-term (-> natural growth). On no account should you purchase a large number of backlinks with high PageRank values within a very short time. Instead, you should increase the number of inbound backlinks slowly. You should also ensure a broad PageRank variation and content relevance here.
Impatience
Patience is an essential prerequisite for successful search engine optimization, especially where Google is concerned. The notion that you can change your search engine placement decisively within a few days or months is an illusion. New websites in particular are forced to wait many months before attaining an adequate ranking (-> Google Sandbox).
Frequent and important changes in the backlink structure
For Google it is very important that backlinks are set for long periods. Frequent changes in the backlink structure, i.e. a constant, unnatural changing of backlinks is more likely to be rated negatively by Google. Many website operators make the mistake of making drastic changes to the backlink structure, especially after PageRank updates. We recommend that you do not terminate backlinks too quickly, for example in the case of PageRank changes, because a long-term PR4 link can be more valuable than a newly-set PR7 link.
Identical link texts
Please make sure that you vary the link texts of your bookings. It is unnatural and likely to be rated negatively by Google if all of the backlinks that link to your webpage have exactly the same text.
Fixation on a high PageRank / No content relevance
The first criterion to consider when purchasing backlinks is the relevance of the link website to the target site. It is really not worth buying backlinks based on PageRank only. There are many factors that contribute to the ranking and simply going by PageRank is not sufficiently focused to offer long term success. This is also the reason why there is hardly a relation between a high page rank and rankings on Google anymore.
Only bookings with a clear topical relationship between the buyer's URL and the seller's URL make clear sense. Content-irrelevant links no longer lead to the desired results. With linking, the content relevance of two webpages is much more important than PageRank. Content relevance means that there is a relationship between the target URL and the offer URL in terms of content. This does not mean that the target URL must deal with exactly the same topic, but merely that some reference can be found between the two pages.
If your page has had no PageRank or only a very low one to date, you must pay special attention to ensuring a natural growth of links.
Participation in link farms/link networks
Do not enter into any exaggerated exchange of links and avoid participating in link networks and link farms. It is for precisely this reason that teliad has taken a different road and exclusively recommends the separate purchase and sale of individual backlinks.
