Footer backlink vs Guest post

It is an old-school technique that disappeared a few years ago. Links in the footer or other prominent positions on a homepage are not typically considered natural backlinks in contemporary SEO. Having an excessive number of links in the sidebar or footer, especially if they appear spammy, it looks bad to the eyes of Google.

Footer backlinks and guest posts are two different approaches to acquiring backlinks, each with its own advantages and considerations
  1. Definition:
    • A footer backlink is a link placed in the footer section of a website. These links are often sitewide, meaning they appear on every page of the website.
  2. Advantages:
    • Visibility: Footer backlinks are generally visible on every page of a website, potentially increasing the visibility of the link.
    • Consistency: Since footer links are often sitewide, they provide a consistent link presence across the entire site.
      1. Definition:
        • A guest post involves creating and publishing content on someone else's website or blog, typically with the aim of including a backlink to your own site within the content or author bio.
      2. Advantages:
        • Contextual Relevance: In a well-executed guest post, the backlink is embedded within content that is relevant to the linking site's audience.
        • Relationship Building: Guest posting often involves building relationships with other websites and their audiences.
 
Footer links are better if you put only on homepage, not whole site. It give you a lot of juice. And boost your dr as well.
