      Hi Guys,

      I've been putting a lot of effort in getting my rank increase over the past few weeks. I had a lot of changes and improvements to do for my on-page. However, I still struggle to get over the top of some competitors which, in my opinion uses backlinks that might not be all relevant.

      I have attached a screen snapshot of my link analysis and I am asking the experts about where should I focus next. We are in the process to put a good content generation strategy, but in the short term, how could I perhaps build backlinks which can give me short term result.

      1. On the image, I rank better on the domain MozRank ? what did we do better than our competitors ?

      2. On the total links, wow, we are so way behind ! How could this be possible to reach that amount ? Where can get a list of all these links ? are they relevant ?

      3. Should I concentrate on one or many of these first ? External followed links.linking root domain ,followed link root domain, linking c-block ? what are the explanation and how to get better ranking on those ?

      4. I just realized that I have no-followed links, how can I identify these ?

      Your help would be appreciated.

      Best regards,

      0FYUB

        Maybe your competitor has a banner somewhere, as you can see it only has 42 linking root domains. So if you can manage to get 100 (not a great number) quality links from different domains you have beaten them.

        It is definately a good starting point that you have a high mozrank to tell what you are doing well someone should see your page, it is hard to tell it without that. Just be satisfied that you are better and gaining 100 links is not that hard
