Find out more about how our link building service can help you.
Building links is a critical part of content marketing and SEO strategies. Quality links help search engines understand what your pages are about and whether your content is high-quality and authoritative. Your link building strategy is just one component of a digital growth marketing strategy, and it can impact domain authority, user experience, and search rankings.
NAV43 provides high-quality backlink building services to help you better leverage the value of existing content or create new content that supports strong search engine optimization (SEO). Our white-hat link building services help you build authoritative websites, reduce frustrations with broken links, and better serve and connect with your target audience.
If you want to improve search engine rankings, quality backlinks are critical. But you may not want to work with just any SEO agency for this purpose. Find out more below about NAV43’s ethical, high-quality backlink building services.
The Importance Of Link Building In SEO
Link building is integral to SEO. How your site is connected to itself and to the wider internet informs search engines and helps support the kind of online behaviour that boosts SEO performance. Here are some reasons to generate backlinks and pay attention to your internal and external linking structures:
-
Links Act As Guides For Search Engine Bots
Internal links, external links, and backlinks all act as guides for search engine bots as they crawl websites. Links effectively say things like “This page is related to that page” or “People who are interested in this content may also be interested in that content.” This can help search engines better understand the context and purpose of your pages, which increases the chances of those pages ranking higher in results for relevant queries.
-
Links Generate Traffic
When you build high-quality links, you increase the number of digital bridges that lead to your web pages. That can increase organic page traffic when individuals come to your site because they clicked on a backlink included in content on another domain.
-
Backlinks From Authoritative Websites Act As Validation For Your Content.
The main principle of link building is one of external validation. If other sites are linking to yours, the natural conclusion is that someone else found your content to be valuable and reliable. The higher the domain authority of the linking website, the more validation the link carries.
The problem here is that you can’t just create high-quality content and wait for people to link to it. The internet is too vast a digital space — and the competition for quality backlinks is too fierce. To gain quality links, you need to put in the work, and a link building company like NAV43 can help.
The Evolving Landscape Of SEO And Link Building Services
Digital marketing evolves rapidly, and the integration of AI into search engine algorithms and marketing processes only escalates that pace. However, even in this continually changing landscape, the value of link building remains steadfast.
In fact, there’s reason to think building links will become increasingly important as AI continues to enhance search engine protocols. Machine learning and natural language processing, among other technologies, make it possible for search engines to consult vast data arrays in microseconds as they respond to user queries. How pages are connected via links will remain critical data points in choosing relevant websites and web pages for users.
As search technology evolves, link building efforts must keep pace, adapting to search engine algorithms and contributing to a site’s visibility and authority.
NAV43’s Ethical Approach To Link Building
NAV43 is committed to ethical, white-hat link building practices. Our human-centric approach to link acquisition ensures every link is evaluated for authority, relevance, and impact to your SEO performance.
Instead of aggressive link farming, we provide link building services that seek connections from relevant sites. We eschew black-hat link building in favour of transparent, honest link building that puts an emphasis on link quality. We ask ourselves: What does a link from this site say about your brand and company? Would anyone following this referral link be interested in your business or products?
Our team is always more interested in relevant links than in maximizing backlinks to the detriment of quality.
When And How We Implement Link Building
Some link building providers may source backlinks at every possible point in the marketing strategy, but at NAV43, we take a more comprehensive approach to SEO strategies. We consider the value of quality backlinks along with all other relevant SEO factors, and we apply link building strategies where they're most likely to positively impact our clients.
Some examples of times when we might recommend a link building campaign include:
-
During SEO Migration Services
Moving content to a new site or revamping your site can create an opportunity to enhance SEO performance. Since backlinks are an important Google ranking factor, sourcing them for your new site or pages can be a good way to hit the ground running.
-
After A Site Or Backlink Audit
We conduct link audits to understand how many links you have internally and externally. We can also look at how many links come into your site and whether they’re from trustworthy and authoritative websites. If we find your current backlinks lack high-authority domains as referral sources, we might recommend acquiring links from other websites.
-
When There Are Favourable Guest Post Opportunities
We can help with manual outreach to support quality backlinks during marketing pushes, such as when you’re launching a new product. This may also be a good time to seek guest posting opportunities, as your new product or service could provide value to the target audience of other sites. The link building team at NAV43 can also work with you to understand if you have in-house experts or other value that would support guest posting.
-
During Drives For More Referral Traffic
If growing referral traffic is a goal for your business, our team can help with blogger outreach and other link building techniques.

When SEO Performance Needs Overall Improvement
We often deploy link building tactics as part of a holistic approach to improving SEO outcomes.
Quality Assurance And Human Oversight
Regardless of the reason for providing link building services, our teams work to maintain high standards. We create link building packages with human-centred processes in mind, which means we never build links solely using AI and other computer-generated methods.
Every link is subject to human review to ensure it aligns with your brand, audience, and SEO objectives. We also use automations and other tools to ensure backlinks meet any necessary technical criteria. Our goal is to build links that provide comprehensive value for you.
Our 4-Step Process For Link Building
Our link building experts work closely with you to understand your link building needs and tailor our services to meet those challenges. However, we generally follow a tried-and-true four-step link building process within those parameters to ensure high-quality results.

Strategy Development
We start with an in-depth discovery phase, working closely with your teams to understand your business’s unique goals and objectives as well as the competitive landscape. Link building strategies must be customized to meet your needs, and we work to ensure our efforts align with factors such as your vision and values.
We also take the time during this step to ensure link building services is the right SEO solution for you. We might recommend a different approach before investing in a link building campaign, depending on your needs.
If we determine that link building strategies are right for you at this time, we combine our link building expertise with what we’ve learned about your business and audience. We’ll develop a customized strategy, outlining the types of links and content we plan to pursue to boost your site’s authority and rankings. We always keep your budget and timeline in mind and seek continual feedback throughout the process to ensure we’re meeting your needs.
Outreach
Once a link building strategy is in place, we begin automated and manual link building efforts. That includes manual outreach to relevant websites that possess the authority to enhance your pages’ rankings and visibility.
We use a proprietary outreach method honed over years of practice to engage the most relevant sites and support high-authority links. Our targeted efforts help build the type of relationships that are most likely to have a positive impact on your SEO performance.
Link Acquisition And Tracking
Our link building services continue as we integrate links into SEO frameworks. We acquire the links and set up a comprehensive tracking system to monitor the direct impact of our link building services. Our goal as a link building agency isn’t to slap links together and call it a day but to continue to create value for your clients.
We keep a close eye on links to gauge the effectiveness of every single one and continuously improve the link building services we offer you and other clients. We also love watching your site’s rankings soar as a result of our targeted link building strategies.
Reporting
Of course, it’s not all about us, and we recognize that clients want to know that services provided by their link building company deliver return on investment. Transparency and communication are key elements of our service, and we provide detailed reports that let you know about acquired backlinks and how they fit into your overall SEO picture and metrics.
Our holistic approach evaluates the success of your link building campaigns within the big-picture context of your entire SEO strategy, ensuring our efforts are closely aligned with your business and marketing objectives.

Whether we implement backlinking as part of an overarching SEO strategy or provide focused backlink building services to help with a product launch or improve your brand reputation, you can expect a number of benefits, including:

If the search engines think you’re trying to game the system or your backlinks are spammy in nature, you can suffer penalties that lower your ranking or even cause your site to be delisted. Our backlink auditing services help mitigate those risks.
Enhanced Credibility And Authority
When authoritative websites link to your pages, it enhances the credibility of your content. In addition, it implies that you're also an authority in your niche.

-
Yes, link building remains a valuable effort within overall search engine optimization campaigns. Marketing professionals expect that link building will continue to be valuable as AI and other technologies evolve within the scope of SEO and search engine processes.
There really is no current replacement for link building when it comes to external validation. Linking to a site is one of the only ways other people and businesses online can show approval of or value for the content in question. Because of this, link building is likely to remain an important SEO tool for years to come, though it may evolve with the changing digital landscape.
-
A quality backlink is one that comes from a relevant, authoritative, high-quality website. Here’s how to determine if a backlink meets these criteria:
- Relevance: The site or page in question is somehow relevant to the page it’s linking to. It uses relevant and clear anchor text and isn’t burying the link in confusion or irrelevant language. For example, a clothing retailer linking to a page on spring’s fashionable colours is relevant. A clothing retailer randomly linking to a page about how to care for your lawn is not relevant.
- Authority: Links that come from pages with strong domain authority or expertise on a topic are more valuable than links that come from unknown sites. For example, in the context of SEO, a link from the local news channel’s site is more valuable than a link from a random personal blogger who hasn’t yet built an audience or credibility.
- Quality: Links from high-quality sites are more valuable than links from low-quality sites. If a site looks spammy, has a poor design, and has content that's full of grammatical errors or factual inaccuracies, a link from that site may not be great for your content.
-
SEO is a complex technical process. It encompasses everything from site design and functionality to the words you choose for your content. Trying to handle all SEO on your own can be daunting, even if you're familiar with digital marketing. If you feel overwhelmed by SEO tasks, you may want to hire a specialist. Some other reasons to connect with an SEO agency or specialist include:
- You want to scale your SEO efforts. If you want to grow your business or SEO efforts without investing in more in-house staff, an agency like NAV43 can help.
- You need specific SEO help. Sometimes you need help with a specific technical aspect of SEO, such as link building services. Outsourcing these efforts can help you get ahead with digital marketing without having to internalize a whole new SEO skill.
- Your SEO efforts aren’t working. If you have put the time and effort into SEO and are still coming up short on KPIs, it may be time to consult experts for help with your strategy.
