Building backlinks is tough. In fact, creating a sustainable backlinks strategy In 2019, will likely get harder.
Google SEO is a competitive landscape and the people who are winning are those that are willing to put in the work.
The good news is that not everyone is willing to put in the hard work and effort to keep their articles up to date.

But do they still deserve them today? In many situations, the answer is no.
As SEOs and marketers are getting smarter, creating high-quality content has become necessity.
But you may have had a hard time getting exposure whether that be due to a small marketing budget or the top ranking pages having way too many links to compete.
However, there are easy ways to identify “low quality pages” and to use these as opportunities to create backlinks to your superior, up-to-date content.
The easiest way to find these link opportunities is to use a tool like Ahrefs’ Content Explorer. This is Ahrefs’ mini search engine that has over a billion pages in its index, a ton of SEO metrics and filters that helps you laser-target in on your results.
