Content or backlinks?
Posted by on June 27, 2020 at 1:58 am– I want to focus on one thing, bcz in the SEO world there is two strategies, either Content-Based strategy or Off-page and Backlink creation strategy.
**What are your recommendations?**

I would say it’s not an either/or question.
Poorly written, badly researched (misinformation), thin content with little value and post like that won’t get you anywhere. You need high quality content that solves people’s problems. Also, if you go for “only backlinks”, people don’t want to link to content that’s crap.
The second part is that you need traffic to the high quality content. And for organic traffic you need to get backlinks. If your content is amazing, chances are you happen to reach people who will link to you when you share your content on social media, but I wouldn’t count on that.
TL;DR: Do both.

I just know about local seo, but the consensus I’ve seen is on-page SEO is stronger than back links, but only marginally. For example, one of my domain’s has a total of 4 backlinks, because I haven’t done a backlink campaign yet, and it ranks 2-4 for the keywords I’ve optimised it for. The competition has far more.

Content with back links and social media is the way I usually build out a site, I am doing local SEO though.
