Links and how they help your SEO is one of the most misunderstood aspects of SEO. We look at why Google (and Bing) use links as a proxy for authority, how the interpretation of links has changed over time, ways people have tried to manipulate the system in the past and how that is nullified today. We also examine why links from other websites in your industry category mean more than other links. Briefly, we touch on the idea of authority, and how that is roughly measured.
