Key Episode Takeaways: Backlinks are links from other websites to yours, acting like votes of confidence that boost your site's credibility. Quality matters more than quantity—credible backlinks from trusted sites (like local news) have more impact than low-value links. Passive backlinks can be earned by listing your business on directories like Yelp, Google Business Profile, or your local Chamber of Commerce. Proactive backlinks require outreach, such as asking vendors or partners to link to your site from their web pages. Local links, like those from a local sponsorship or community group, strengthen your local SEO even if they're not topically relevant.
