The fits in with everything weve seen. Successful link building However at the other end of the scale we get examples like this Picture.png The above graph courtesy of STAT shows rankings for the commercial keywords for Fleximize.com during a Distilled creative campaign. This is a particularly interesting example for two reasons Fleximize started off as a domain with relatively little equity meaning that changes were measurable and that there were fairly easy gains to be made Nothing happened with the first two pieces even though they scored highquality coverage and were seemingly very comparable to the third.
It seems that links did eventually move the needle here and massively so but the Kazakhstan Phone Number mechanisms at work are highly opaque. The above two examples Flowers and Fleximize are just two realworld examples of ranking changes. Ive picked one that seems obviously linkdriven but a little strange and one that shows how volatile things are for more competitive terms. Im sure there are countless massive folders out there full of case studies that show links moving rankings but the point is that it can happen yet it isnt always as simple as it seems.
How do we explain all of this A lot of the evidence Ive gone through above is contradictory. Links are correlated with rankings and Google says theyre important and sometimes they clearly move the needle but on the other hand brand awareness seems to explain away most of their statistical usefulness and Googles operating with more subtle methods in the datarich top end. explain how this fits together is this There are two tiers probably fuzzily separated. At the top end user signals and factors that Googles algorithms associate with user signals are everything. For competitive queries with lots of search volume links dont tell Google anything it couldnt figure out anyway and links dont help with the final refinement of finegrained ordering. However links may still be.
