I have posted a total of 20 posts. Do I need to do backlinks now? Or will I take several more days?
 
you can already start but take it slowly (and focus on quality at first)
Do I need to increase my website's DA, PA now? Or can I start some specific post backlinks?
 
Do I need to increase my website's DA, PA now?
DA is a metric invented by MOZ and google doesn't care about it (you can oftentimes see websites with 0 DA ranking, so this shows you that DA - the metric itself - is not important).

What is important, however is the authority of a website which - coincidentally - coincides with DA (if you can follow me), which is why sometimes it feels like DA is important.

This being said, you will eventually need domain authority (ranking power), and when you have it your DA and PA will increase automatically, and this will help you rank better and for more keywords (that you wouldn't otherwise target). So, the authority of a website is very important, but the DA itself (the metric invented by MOZ) is not important, even though these 2 coincide with each other most of the time (sorry that I don't know how to explain any better)

Or can I start some specific post backlinks?
start with links that cost money, that are hard to get by most people, or both.

If you can't afford to pay for good links you can try with web 2.0s, profile links, quality forum and UGC links (Reddit, Quora, Pinterest, StackOverflow, etc), or quality .edu / gov links

These 4 categories are still safe to use, albeit not all of them will help you rank. But until you make money to afford quality PBNs, quality guest posts, and quality niche edits (which are 3 of the most powerful backlinks today), you can work with the other options. Just focus on pointing them to pages that target easy keywords (usually long tail keywords) so that you have a chance to rank, otherwise I don't think you can push pages like the homepage, for example, into top 10 (even top 20 if you're in a tough niche) with web 2.0s and profile links (the specialty forums and quality edu./ gov links might work, though but again, it depends on your niche + keywords, as well as how well your site is, and how good your content is)

Here's a newbie-friendly guide to educate you on how to approach link building, give it a read as it's important:

Thank you very much. For helping me with proper information like this
 
I'd say get an expired domain and migrate your articles to that one. Ranking with a fresh domain is really really hard these days (even if we take for granted that your article is the best in the business). Building links doesn't help much with breaking the sand box either these days.

I've done that before. But the problem I have is that many old domains are blocked by Google and working on new ones doesn't give very good results. But I don't know how to find a good old domain
 
I’d focus more on building topical authority first before going heavy on backlinks.

dont rush into high volume links on a new site
it can be seen as spammy
 
Hey TIMDAVID! It sounds like you're on the right track. Starting backlinks with quality in mind is key. If you're targeting easy keywords, you’ll see better results. Best of luck with your blog!
 
Thank you I want to work like this. And want to see a good result
 
You can start building backlinks now, even with 20 posts. Focus on creating high-quality, niche-relevant backlinks to boost your site's authority and rankings while continuing to publish content consistently.

I welcome you. But I won't do anything now, I'll take a few more days
