A backlink is when one website links to another. This is normally by using text as the link. This is called anchor text.

What is considered a quality backlink?

Backlinks to your website serve as a strong indicator to search engines that your content is valuable and trustworthy, as they demonstrate that other websites support or endorse it. A quality backlink is from a relevant, trusted and authoritative website, such as a national news site.

If the page with a link to yours receives traffic and gets viewed by a relevant audience, it has value for you.
