This is a term that I have heard a lot of. It is one of those things that seems to have homeowners pretty stumped. I think it is because it can actually impact your decor. Buying or building a new home, you would think would eliminate the paint stress, but it can actually be the very thing that causes it.
Buying or building a new home, you would think would eliminate the paint stress, but it can actually be the very thing that causes it. Among the many decisions that a new homeowner has to make during construction, choosing paint colors can be the most difficult. I know this because I get asked a lot, plus the Google search terms “should I paint my new construction home?” is one of the most frequent ones that lead people to our website. It goes beyond just choosing colors.
Links are one of the three major ranking factors in Google. So if you want your website’s pages to rank high in search, you will almost certainly need links. Google (and other search engines) look at links from other sites as “votes.” These votes help them identify which page on a given topic (out of thousands of similar ones) deserves to be ranking at the very top of the search results.

These votes help them identify which page on a given topic out of thousands of similar ones deserves to be ranking at the very top of the search results.
The other ranking factor is in-page quality. Links help a search engine determine what site on a given topic is more authoritative. The higher the link count, the more authoritative a page is. The more links a page has, the more authority it has. If you have hundreds of links pointing to your page, your page will be at the top of the search results. A site with a few hundred links is likely to rank higher than one with a few thousand.
However, what’s most important to us is that when we’re linking to sites, we’re trying to make these pages rank higher. Because in-page authority is a very important ranking factor. So if we’re saying that the most important ranking factor is in-page authority, then the link count is a second ranking factor. If you’ve got a link, then it probably means your page has more authority.
So you’re suggesting that the most important ranking factor is in-page authority, but there are actually a lot of other ranking factors that play a big role in search ranking. These include links from other pages, in-page link juice, and your own in-page authority.
Yes, those are all ranking factors, but they really do work together. So if youre saying that link count is the most important ranking factor, then your page has authority. If youve got a link, it probably means your page has more authority.
The point is that while there are many ranking factors, there are also a ton of other ranking factors. Our study of almost 1 billion pages found that in-page authority is the most important ranking factor, followed by links from other pages and your own authority.
So if youve got a link, you probably have more authority. But what about links from other pages? Not just from other pages, but from your own authority page. Thats the other ranking factor that matters.
