Relevancy is the main factor for me. After that I just check if the site has real traffic and isn’t dead, metrics alone don’t tell the full story.

Niche relevance + Organic traffic > all other numbers in my experience.

Trust Flow and citation quality matter more than raw Domain Authority for avoiding spammy links.
