So, let’s take a look at the two main Inbound link concepts which highly affect SEO results:
- Follow vs. No follow: To know them deeply; first of all it is necessary to understand how links are useful when it comes to SEO. Links are important because search engines consider them as ways to well known content.

It is necessary to note that many links with the similar anchor text will be a sign to Google that you are trying to manipulate search results via link building.
