No ! SEO backlinking builds your site's authority and Local SEO helps you rank in local searches and on google maps.

Most of the freelancers sell "backlinks" in both backlinking and Local seo.. I know that local seo focus on location based keywords but most of them do for rankings as well.

SEO Backlinking is an important technique in the whole SEO strategy
Local SEO is a specific branch, focusing on search results based on geographical location
Both are not the same, but closely related

No, they’re not the same.
Backlinking is about getting links from other sites to build authority.
Local SEO focuses on improving visibility in local searches, like Google Maps, reviews, and nearby results. Both can work together but serve different goals.

No
Backlinks and local SEO are two different things
Backlinks involves getting links from others websites and Local SEO means ranking your website or business locally for specific location

Local SEO is the practice of specifically trying to rank in a local area.
Backlinking is getting links back to your website. Think about it as in getting others to talk about you. So for local SEO you'd leverage links from a local website more than national, or international links.
Hope that makes sense.

backlinking could be a part of local SEO since SEO consists of backlink, on page and technical things.

No, backlinking and local SEO aren’t the same.
Backlinking helps improve overall site authority and rankings. Local SEO focuses on showing up in local searches and maps, using things like Google Business Profile and local citations. Both help with SEO, but they serve different goals.
