Hello,

I have a strong interest in acquiring "free and smart" backlinks and enjoy analyzing them in my competitors' reports (although I don't create them myself).

However, many people argue that such backlinks are useless. As I have the opportunity to put this to the test, I am curious to see if my fascination with foundation backlinks is justified.

Use Case:

I have created two websites that are exact duplicates of my main site (in terms of content) but translated and proofreaded by native speakers, with a fresh domain name. Both websites were launched simultaneously in two countries with similar populations and operate in an easy niche.

The only difference between the two sites is that Site 1 has a minimal 301 redirect.

Site 1 is going to be the lucky recipient of backlinks.

Site 2:

Backlinks:

  • I plan to use 20-30 previously well-indexed backlinks from last year for one of my websites.
  • Additionally, I will be using the top 20-30 backlinks from this forum.
What comes next?

I will wait until the end of June and adjust my strategy accordingly. I may consider incorporating web 2.0 or adding more links if needed.
 
Including an established site that has not yet achieved rankings can enhance the reliability and credibility of your testing process.
 
After investing approximately 5 to 6 hours of work, the following outcomes were observed:

  • 44 backlinks were successfully created, with the majority being of high quality and serving as foundational links.
  • Unfortunately, one backlink was lost during the process.
  • Additionally, there are plans to incorporate 2 to 3 exceptionally good backlinks in the upcoming days.
Based on these actions and developments, I anticipate that there will be no significant changes observed at the conclusion of the testing period.
 
Undoubtedly, backlinks are indeed effective. Backlinks of excellent quality obtained from authoritative websites have a significant impact. Conversely, the inexpensive options you come across are unlikely to get positive results.

That's the goal of my case study – to confirm it or not.

I'm working with the "best" of the not-so-great links.
 
What exactly is a “foundation” link? Are you referring to brand anchors?

Like the links from @Rachmaninoff in this forum.

Otherwise, it could be things like web profiles, forum posts, or blog comments.
