Hi friends, does backlinks still plays a major role in AI seo? We used to buy guest posts on fiver had no real value for money end up website linking to bad websites and content . Does anyone have practical advice about this? TIA
@Paul Jacobelli Yes man, you’re absolutely right — publishing press releases on premium websites like NBC, Fox, ABC is very good. But last month, we published 500 guest posts and 500 press releases because we wanted to see what benefits clients more — press releases, guest posts, or link insertions. What we found was that if you want to get leads from ChatGPT, then press releases are the best option. But if you want to bring more leads from Google to your business, then guest posts and link insertions are the best options. This month, when we received reports from both types of clients, we realized that guest post clients got more benefits compared to press release clients. When I thought about the reason behind this, I concluded that most press releases are no-follow, which is why guest posts brought more benefit.
@Can Sertyüz Fix all broken links, remove placeholder text/images, and ensure your products, categories, and policies (About, Contact, Shipping, Refund) are complete and match your feed. Then, resubmit for review after Oct 1, 2025.

If I'm working on a website that has a domain rating of 64 (ahrefs), and wondering: How many backlinks – and of what quality – would I need to increase it to 70 DR? What about increasing it by just 2-3 points? I'm currently trying to determine if this is a worthwhile endeavour, and I would love some input from any backlink pros!
