1. Spy on Your Competitors’ Backlinks

SEO is like playing poker against your competitors. Google is the dealer.

The backlinks are what the cards are in our blogging game. Everyone has access to them. It is possible to easily obtain a list of backlinks from your competitors and then attempt to duplicate their best.

One of the best ways to improve SEO is by replicating backlinks from competitors. Start by selecting your primary competitors. These are websites that rank in the top five positions for your keywords.

Ranking higher than you means that they have a better backlink profile and have more quality backlinks. After you have decided which competitors you want to spy on, it is time to examine their backlinks.

You can replicate the best links of your competitors using Monitor Backlinks. However, you can also use your preferred SEO tool.

Once you have added your competitors to a link building tool such as Linkody, the metrics will help you determine which links are worth replicating. Do not try to duplicate all of them. Every site has bad links, even Wikipedia. Only replicate links with good authority.

The Ahrefs Domain Rank and Moz Domain Authority are two ways to quickly see the domain's value. These metrics may be right for you. Check out how these sites link to third-party websites.

It will help you with your SEO campaigns if they use dofollow hyperlinks. It won't help with SEO but may drive some traffic to your site if it's nofollow.

Hey, Roger, Thanks for the training. It's all confusing to me. SEO gurus strongly recommend building backlinks that seems be an effective tool. Your training seems to help what to do however in Kyle’s training states backlinking is not important. Some authority sites have no backlinks and still rank so all this jargon about SEO backlinking is just more confusing for me than ever.
