Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Ali Certainly one strategy would be to use Moz Pro + the Moz bar to see which sites are linking back to a competitor. Our agency has done this, creating large spreadsheets of possible backlink opportunities, then going through them one by one to see which are attainable for you. While this is not the only backlink strategy out there, it is not a bad place to start in my humble opinion. Hope this helps, Zack
