How Do You Create High-Quality Web 2.0 Backlinks?

Hey BHW community! I’m looking to improve my off-page SEO and have been hearing a lot about Web 2.0 backlinks. Can anyone share tips or strategies for creating high-quality Web 2.0 backlinks that actually make a difference? What platforms work best, and how do you ensure the links are valuable for SEO?

you want to put lipstick on a pig...

Web 2.0s, in general, are not "high quality" links since they're free and easy to get and google hates everything that people have free and easy access to, so they devalue them...

The only way you can give a bit of legitimacy to web 2.0s is if you treat them like your own money site. As in, post regularly, don't put affiliate links on your content until much later on (after months), SEO the content with images, vids, infographics, stats, tables, comparison charts, etc... basically make the web 2.0 as pretty and "useful to the user" as you'd make your own site (it's in quotes because many users don't give a crap about stats, vids, tables, etc... it's always google and their imbecile AI that crave structured data because they want to force us all to think like a cybernetic brain or to become business people... which is the same since business people don't think normal anymore, they only think profits and numbers)...

And after you do all of these google will reward you with a nice, whooping ranking boost from position 63 to position 58... if you're lucky and you've slaved your life long enough for google to be pleased...

Like with most free and easy-to get links, web 2.0s - too - are mostly good to diversify your backlinks, to dilute the anchors, or as buffer zone for software blasts because they have authority and can take a punch without getting affected. You can also use them as parasites to drive traffic to your site or a landing page where you'd convert it into leads / sales.

But if you're thinking of using web 2.0s to rank you'll be in a for a surprise

Services like web 2.0 will have no good effect on seo anymore. You need much higher budget to get ranked now.

web 2.0 links are not high quality anymore. but you can use them as tier 2 of your quality links like guest posts niche edits..
you don't need to create hundreds of these web 2.0 links .. you can create some of these, so your backlink profile look natural.

Web 2.0 links are useless now.

We can create them to enhance diversity, as they can aid in getting indexed and serve as tier 2 links. From my experience, relevance is key in this process.

how about the noindex tag that Medium puts on new accounts? Did they remove this, or is it still there? Because if it's still noindex it's pretty useless

that's not what I asked though

Some while ago (beginning of this year, or later last year, I don't remember when I've heard this) Medium have started adding the noindex tag to pages created by new accounts which means that google will not index those pages. Which means that you have no SEO benefit from having links on those pages.

Of course, later on (as the account ages) Medium might remove the noindex tag, but this is not guaranteed....

So yeah, that's what I wanted to know (whether Medium have removed the noindex tag from new accounts), follow and _target have nothing to do with noindex, they have different functions...
