Importance in search engine optimization

In its original version of Google , the ranking rating of a page depended on the number of backlinks. The more a page was linked, the higher the weighting of the page in the rankings. But with the abuse of the artificial pushing of a page by blackhat SEO with measures such as link exchange and link purchase, the domain Pop lost its importance. In addition to the number of referrals, other metrics such as the number of rankings, the trustworthiness of the page and the age of the page are now more in focus.

Domain popularity scope

Domain popularity is analyzed primarily in the area of ​​link building. The more a page is linked from different high-quality pages, the higher the influence on the ranking in the organic search results.
