Companies often combine traditional and digital marketing techniques in their strategies. But it comes with its own set of challenges, including implicit bias.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Backlinks are one of the most important components of SEO so it is obviously essential to consider which types of backlinks are the best. Many people wonder if having multiple backlinks from same domain is good for their SEO or if it has negative impacts.  In addition, many backlink-building strategies focus solely on increasing backlink diversity, rather than focusing on overall quantity.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"588\" src=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/what-are-backlinks.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1762\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/what-are-backlinks.png 960w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/what-are-backlinks-300x184.png 300w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/what-are-backlinks-768x470.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Example of backlinks structure<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While there are certainly benefits to focusing on backlink diversity, this article will explore whether it is also beneficial to focus on building multiple backlinks from the same website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_backlink_diversity\"><\/span>What is backlink diversity? <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Backlinks from other websites that point to your site are known as referring domains. In simple words, backlinks are hyperlinks, and referring domains are the websites that generate these links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;Link diversity is a strategy of obtaining inbound links from different kinds of pages. For example directories, articles, and news links. Link diversity also means obtaining links from a variety of domains such as .edu, .com, .net, and so on.&#8221;<\/em>~<a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/link-diversity\/257403\/\">SJ Journal<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea behind link diversity is that obtaining backlinks within a diverse range will also keep a site\u2019s backlink patterns within a normal range. The purpose of this is to avoid looking spammy to Google or Bing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, focusing on link diversity is not a beneficial ranking factor in itself. In most cases, only extremely suspicious patterns of links (like 50 backlinks from one website, or an interlocking web of links all from the same domain owners.) are cause for concern for Google.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Do you ever reach out to websites that already link to you to get more links?

This at first glance reveals that backlink diversity is important to improving traffic and search rankings.  However, this correlation does not take into account that having more unique backlinks also means that a website has more backlinks overall. This reveals that backlink quantity is also an <a href=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/most-important-seo-metrics-2022\/\">important metric for good SEO<\/a>, and arguably a more critical metric. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another concern that people have is that having too many backlinks from the same website is unnatural. This would be an issue because search engines could then penalize websites for those unnatural links if they identify them as spam. However,  research does not support the claim that multiple backlinks from the same website are unnatural. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A study by <a href=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ahrefs<\/a> found that 79.23% of referring domains link to the same website multiple times. In addition, the websites that did provide multiple links typically linked to a website 2-5 times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"625\" height=\"529\" src=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-26-at-12.46.13.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1890\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-26-at-12.46.13.png 625w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-26-at-12.46.13-300x254.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This study shows that it is very natural for websites to provide multiple backlinks, and thus it would not seem unusual or unnatural to Google search. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, multiple backlinks from the same site will not be viewed as unnatural by Google and other search engines which clearly indicates that having these will not negatively impact your site. The question remains whether multiple backlinks from the same site will have a <strong>positive impact<\/strong> on your website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4 reasons to build more backlinks from the same website:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Increase_Exposure_to_Different_Pages_of_Your_Website\"><\/span>Increase Exposure to Different Pages of Your Website! <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\">\n<figure class=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"451\" height=\"278\" src=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/image2019.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1763\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/image2019.webp 451w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/image2019-300x185.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 451px) 100vw, 451px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">website structure example<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Multiple backlinks from the same website can be beneficial by allowing that website to link to different pages on your domain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often times backlinks contain the URL of the webpage that already receives the most traffic, the homepage. Backlinks to the homepage are good but increasing the number of pages that are linked has an additional positive impact. This is because it exposes these pages to more referral traffic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, many web pages have specific purposes such as providing information or providing a call to action. By increasing the backlinks to these specific pages the specific goals of those pages can be met! More links to an informative blog posts can help position a website as an expert in their field. More links to a registration page for an event can boost the number of registrations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Overall giving a website the ability to backlink to multiple pages on your domain will have a positive impact on overall SEO and on the success of those pages in accomplishing their goals. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Increase_Domain_and_Page_Authority\"><\/span> Increase Domain and Page Authority! <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\">\n<figure class=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"482\" src=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Domain-Authority-Graphic-1-1024x482.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1764\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Domain-Authority-Graphic-1-1024x482.png 1024w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Domain-Authority-Graphic-1-300x141.png 300w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Domain-Authority-Graphic-1-768x361.png 768w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Domain-Authority-Graphic-1-1536x723.png 1536w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Domain-Authority-Graphic-1-2048x963.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">domain authority graph<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Every webpage has a score for domain and page authority that is calculated based on a variety of factors from page loading speed to backlinks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This metric is not a direct ranking factor of search engines but it is highly correlated with SEO success. Websites with high domain authority are much more likely to rank on the first page of Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Want to check your website Domain Authority? check out our <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/tools\/seo\/domain-authority\"><strong>Free Domain Authority Checker<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One way that authority is measured is through the layout of links on a domain from one page to another. If a webpage is ranked highly and it links to another webpage on the domain this will lend some of the authority to that page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that having multiple backlinks from the same website can impact page authority because the backlinks will point to multiple pages of the domain, strengthening their individual score and subsequently the overall score. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Knowledge-base-part-3_domain-authority-1024x538.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1765\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Knowledge-base-part-3_domain-authority-1024x538.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Knowledge-base-part-3_domain-authority-300x158.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Knowledge-base-part-3_domain-authority-768x403.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/accessily.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Knowledge-base-part-3_domain-authority.jpeg 1489w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dont_skip_on_increasing_referral_traffic\"><\/span>Don&#8217;t skip on increasing referral traffic!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Backlinks from high-traffic websites drive referral traffic to your website. This is a great source of organic traffic and these new visitors to your site will have additional trust in your website since they came from a website they already trust to yours. This will have a positive impact on your business because the higher traffic volume will increase conversions. Also, if the website that provides backlinks is in the same niche, the traffic will be more relevant also contributing to a higher conversion rate. The more backlinks that a website provides to your website, the more pathways users will have to find your site!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main point is that if there is an opportunity to get a link from a high-traffic website, it does not matter if you already have a link from that website. <strong>The additional backlink will still be beneficial even if just for the referral traffic!<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_to_Build_More_Backlinks\"><\/span>Start to Build More Backlinks!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Link building is extremely valuable for SEO because they represent a \u201cvote of confidence\u201d from one site to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scaling link building is tricky in competitive industries, especially when you\u2019re up against big brands who may be generating far more links than you each month.
