Keyword stuffing

Buying link

Link building is one of the most important factors for ranking the website on Google or other search engines. More backlinks you make, better organic rankings you get.

Now, people have become so lazy nowadays that they think, instead of building backlinks by visiting website after website, it would be better to buy bundles of backlinks at once.

But they don’t know this idea of them can become very dangerous for their site.

Buying a backlink is not an issue. Because at last Google crawler is just a piece of code. That checks whether it is purchased backlink or natural backlink.  But the main issue is how many backlinks you are buying and from where.

What do I mean by “How and where”?

Doing anything out of limit is dangerous in any situation. So do not buy bundles of backlinks at once because this gives the signal to the crawler that you have bought a backlink.

And when you are buying backlinks or creating natural backlinks, firstly, you should check the domain and page authority of the site if both are good then you can buy but in the limited amount.
