Are web2.0 websites still useful for backlinks?

[metlivewin]

I have a fresh website on a fresh domain, i started it in october/november, then in february i had to switch domain so i redirected the old domain with 301. I'm sending mails to all the blogs/websites relevant to my niche i can find to hopefully get some backlinks but they always require me to pay them hundreds/thousands of euros (even the shittiest ones). Does creating new websites with web2.0 platforms like blogger/wix/weebly and linking them to my main site still work in 2025? If so, what are the best platforms and how should I do it to avoid google penalties? thanks

Yes, Web 2.0 websites can still be useful for backlinks. They allow users to create and share content, which can increase visibility and drive traffic. Backlinks from these platforms can improve SEO and enhance your site's authority. However, the effectiveness often depends on the quality of the content, relevance to your niche, and the overall SEO strategy. It's important to focus on creating valuable, engaging content that can attract genuine interest and interactions.

The best Web 2.0 platforms are WordPress, Blogger, Tumblr, Wix, and Weebly for creating and sharing content easily.

why? Blogger is one of the best

yeah but if i create a blogger website i must login with my google account, so google will see that i'm the owner of both websites (the money site and the blogger site)

So get another Google account, not really a problem.

Link diversity always adds up.

Yes, They still work. They should be your top priority sometimes.

Web 2.0 backlinks aren't as valuable as those from high quality Web 1.0 sites, link diversity is also required

 

[jansha]

Yeah pretty useful still.

Try to negotiate with those Outreach websites or pitch them with a link exchange offer! I think you may end up getting a cheap backlink or totally free if your website serves them some value!
About the query related to Web2.0s ~~~ They surely works to diversify your link profile but not as effective as outreach links!
Good Luck

Yes, it still works well. But it will take some time for indexing and you need to be patient. Also, solely focusing on the web 2.0s is not recommended. You can also consider building niche edits, quality pbn links, etc and it may help you.

I, personally, prefer Tumblr.
Easy to use and your articles can rank on the main site in the tags.
