Hey everyone - I had a client pick up an amazing PR publication on a major source but I saw that a backlink to their website wasn't included. It sent me down a rabbit hole of "linkless backlinks" and how Google/search engines can recognize the links and build the site authority without needing a physical link to your site included. Can anyone from this community vouch for this? I'm looking to understand the impact of how brand mentions like this can affect performance overall. A few sources I was using to gain a bit more information: https://www.searchenginewatch.com/2017/12/21/why-linkless-mentions-are-the-future-of-link-building/?amp=1 https://searchengineland.com/use-brand-mentions-seo-linkless-future-link-building-290344 https://aicontentfy.com/en/blog/rise-of-linkless-mentions-and-what-it-means-for-link-building
Thanks in advance
