It's not an uncommon notion that the quality of links directing to a site is what makes that website stand out or duck in the eyes of search engines. But when you talk about a quality link, what does it really mean?

Here are the signs of a quality link:

1. It comes from a relevant website that is catering to a niche.

2. It comes from a site which is more trusted and has more authority such as popular news sites and those sites with .gov and .edu top level domains.

3. It is a one-way inbound link, which gets rid of the link exchange just for more link count doubt.

4. It has a relevant anchor text.
