Hello guys!

I know that when creating backlink, relevancy is one of the most important thing to consider. But how to determine that a backlink is relevancy or not?

I want to ask for this case below only

My website is about kayaking niche. I contact a website which is related to health niche. Then the owner of that website write an article in a topic like that: "How kayaking is good for your mental health" (just an example) and drop my website's link into that article.

So is that backlink considered a relevant backlink (to my niche)? Or the targeted website must be a kayaking website?

This is important to me because it's hard to find a website that its whole content relevant to my niche to place a backlink.

Thank you!
 
Yes that would still help you alot. If it was a site strictly about kayaking it might help more but even links that are unrelated help so one that ties in your niche to whatever they do would be a great link

Thanks for replying. So whatever the website's content about, just need an article which is related to our niche and get a link from that article then it is still a good backlink right?

Yes, There is certainly some score for relevancy but adding links from websites will help. I think having the article be relevant will help close the gap on the domain having different content.

If you are just going to have 1 or maybe 2 links about the health aspect, that is fine. It's when you suddenly end up with half your links coming from health related sites.
Kayaking you can also look at sporting aspect, fishing, kayak holidays etc etc.

I'm targeting some wide-range topics website like news website which has content about many different niches.

My niche is one of their categories/sub-categories. So I want to know if those links worth or not worth getting.

Thanks
 
In my opinion, it's a relevant backlink. If you could include some health keywords on your target page that would be even better.
