Link Building in 2025 - How to Build Proper Links & Avoid Poor Quality Domains

In this video Daniel Foley Carter (https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-foley-assertive/) covers link building in 2025. This is the first part in a multi-part video series that looks at link building and the common misconceptions behind domain metrics and why its crucial to take ANY metric with a pinch of salt. This video covers the pitfalls of relying on traditional link metrics such as DR/UR/TF/DA etc and why in most cases they are garbage metrics. Then it looks at how segmenting a referring domain export by "projected traffic" is generally a better way of segmenting out links of value. We cover: 1. Looking at a SERP - in this instance SEO consultant in Google 2. Using Mangools to dump out top level metrics 3. Using Google Sheets to create visualisations by DR/Traffic grouping 4. Why using projected traffic and page indexing state is generally a better idea The sheets used in this video: Metrics population sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AwwrvNfTXuE1eEyQ_-Aiq1wgDxMdEsybjqQR74GT-q0/edit?gid=0#gid=0 Quick referring domain traffic grouper: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CpLS0vsr7WZWhXYQTKnu9SiLq4_7Khxto1k31K4Qdw8/edit?gid=0#gid=0 Like the video content? check out our 50+ hour video webinar series covering lots of different areas within SEO https://seo-audits.io/seo-webinar-bundle/ Love Google search console but wish you could use an unrestricted version of it? https://www.seo-stack.io/
