Now that we know who the competition is, the top five websites shown in the SERP checker , let's dive into each competitor's backlink profile.
If we want to rank above them, we will need more and better links than them.
To do this analysis, we will use Ranktracker's [Backlink Checker] tool (/backlink-checker/).
Let's open the Backlink Checker and evaluate the second item on the list: FindStack .
Ranktracker Backlink Checker Tool
The Backlink Checker gives me vital information.
Sorting by Domain Rank (DR), I can see that only one of the backlinks korean whatsapp has a decent ranking, just 42.
Many of the backlinks originate from 3 common sites, so this rank may be artificially elevated by some blackhat SEO nonsense, not best practices.
Only 25% of these links are marked as Do-Follow.
So what does all this tell me?
I can rank above this site with fewer and better backlinks.
To do this, I will need to get links from websites with a DR above 42 , and at least some of those links should be from sites with a DA above 60 (ideally).
I'll also want to make sure that most - if not all - of my links are marked as Do-Follow.
Now that we've looked at our competitors' backlink profiles, we can begin to formulate a plan to build our own.
Writing the content
Now that we've done our research, it's time to start writing the content.
But before we do, let's look at what our competition has written.
If we look at the top-ranked articles for “best landing page builder ,” we can see that most are list articles with more than 10 items.
I created a similar style post in my “best landing page builder” article , choosing to differentiate myself with higher quality content to help searchers achieve their purchase intent goals.
Will it work?
I think so.
The post is very comprehensive, going over everything a searcher would need to know to make an informed decision about landing page builders.
It's also well-written and engaging, which I think will help it rank better than the competition.
Now that we have written our article, it is time to start building backlinks.
Building Backlinks
The first step to building backlinks is to create a list of potential link sources.
Backlink building is beyond the scope of this article, but I will note that Ranktracker has a DR above 50 (in my target area), and I have guest written this with a link back to my article.
For this article, we'll call building backlinks a successful start.
What's left?
Tracking and updating rankings
We all know that to achieve better SEO positioning it is necessary to continue polishing the articles. Our process includes:
Checking backlink profiles for new links and lost links
