Anyone who knows SEO would probably agree. I know sites with no backlinks that rank well for competitive search terms, and the opposite is true too.
Can you share what you think are the most important factors? I’ve been putting 50% of my effort into backlinks based on what others have told me.
@PostPioneer1
Start by serving user intent. Write comprehensive content on your topics (cover all related search terms, etc.). Ensure a good user experience (CTR, bounce rate, dwell time). Once those are solid, then focus on links. Backlinks matter, but they won’t help if users aren’t engaging with your site.

I know websites that have improved their rankings significantly through backlinks alone. Sure, some sites get high rankings without backlinks, but it’s a mystery why since the ones above and below them are often better.

I didn’t mean to imply that backlinks aren’t a factor, just that they’re not in the top three. If competition is low, you can rank with just backlinks. You can also rank with content alone.
No genuine party or agent who values their own domain ranking will ever offer backlinks for money. Such arrangements might work short-term, but they’ll come back to haunt them eventually. Not all links will be from quality domains, and buying backlinks indicates their site’s content quality isn’t enough to rank. While not every site offering backlinks is bad, many are, and Google will penalize those domains, or the owners will disavow links to improve their SEO! In the end, they risk getting blacklisted with these black-hat tactics.
Shady practices to gain traction on shady subjects—long live SEO!
I tried Fiverr backlinks and spent over $700 on gigs. Most freelancers use tools you can access yourself, which can save you time and money:

The first three links look pretty spammy. Do you have personal experience generating results this way?

Also curious about this!

Wow man! That’s so cool!
You might as well just set your money on fire and watch it burn away to nothing.
You can find good links if you know what to look for. Ask for a website list. Focus on guest posts or niche edits only. Avoid PBNs and contextual links. Check each domain individually for stats (DR, traffic, penalties, etc.). It’s a long process.

Correct! This has worked for me on several occasions.
Buying backlinks from Fiverr is a waste of money.
Fiverr backlinks are trash!
I wouldn’t recommend looking for someone on Fiverr.
I bought some, and they’re okay. What I like about Fiverr is that if you’re not happy (which I’ve been sometimes), you can get a money-back guarantee.
I prefer working with an agency that manually publishes on various sites. It’s much safer than Fiverr backlinks, which could get our website penalized by Google and cause a lot of other issues.
