A backlink is a link to one site from another site. Backlinks have a huge impact on a site's prominence in search engine results. That is why they are considered very useful for improving a site's position in search engine rankings. Search engines calculate rankings based on multiple factors, the display of search results. No one knows exactly how much weight search engines give to backlinks when listing results, but what we do know for sure is that they are very important.
Backlinks should be natural, which means that a Web site should not use artificial ways to create backlinks to its sites. The quality of the links is much more important than the quantity. It's also important to remember to use a backlink monitoring tool.

For example: a corporate site is a restaurant and it gets backlinks from site B, which is a prominent food commentary on a blog or website. This is valuable, natural, and relevant backlinking that the site has already earned.

Because of the importance of backlinks, there are many bad practices with website owners who want to get backlinks. Some of these bad practices are: purchasing backlinks, sharing link networks, selling links, etc. Most of these practices are not recommended by search engines. They are usually not indexed and penalize websites suspected of engaging in such practices. 

Think backlinks in the form of exchanges among sites.

For example: One blogger John writes very interesting articles about a sports holiday. Another blogger Samantha disagrees with him and writes articles about it in another article for an online magazine. She links to blogger John's article so her readers can understand both points of view. John's blog receives valuable feedback. On the other hand, Samantha's article becomes popular and many other sites link to her article. Samantha's site gets a lot of new backlinks. Although John only received one backlink to his article, the value of it is increased by the backlinks generated to Samantha's article.

The World Wide Web, or "web" for short, is a network of web pages linked together by hyperlinks. Each hyperlink connects a new document and adds to the overall growth of the web. Search engines make it easier for you to find these web pages. Web pages are linked by many other web pages on similar topics considered more respectful and valuable. In the above example, John's article gets respect evoked by the conversation, as a result of many other web pages link back to each other. Therefore, backlinks are not only important for a site to earn respect, they are also important for search engines and the overall performance of the entire World Wide Web.

The admin panel also has a widget called inbound links. This widget displays links to the site from other sites, especially blogs. It uses Google, a blog search result, to show the link. There are other free backlink checks available online that can be used to see how many pages of links are on a particular page.
