You know, a site with 10000000 backlinks could be beaten by a site with 50 backlinks.Your site should always have some free content.. Keywords also play an important role to get higher ranking in Google.

I was being facetious in replying to a question that has ABSOLUTELY no sensible answer whatsoever!!

Keywords as what?

You can never keep a site on the first page of search engine just by building number of backlinks. Asking how many backlink is required to keep a site in the first page of SERP is a non-sense question.

I have a site that appears page 1 for a very "competitive" phrase (if I even bother looking...) that has only 2 other sites linking to it!

Backlinks are not the be all and end all of things nowadays....

not sure about that, I think it depends on how quality those links would be...

What exactly you want to say, how this is possible that such as big site which has more then 1000000 backlinks can be beaten by small website?

How is this possible?

no one can answer this question even matt cutte too. that is stupid question and there is may like this one.

you can start optimizing your website and keep tracking links and collect them and after achieve ranking, count it.

For next website do same.

Exactly... instead of chasing the endless amount of links that will do very little for you - concentrate of creating something useful that people will want to link to...

The contents of your site are meaningful and fantastic, you must own many rss readers and the comments of your article are hundreds and thousands. Your site will come to the first place of your Search Engine.

Who said anything about it being a blog??

**SiberForum** · 03-29-2011, 09:56 AM

Can agree here that it mainly depends on the quality of the links.

**skyinfo** · 03-29-2011, 01:06 PM

Its not depend on number of back links you got for the site, but it's important to get good quality and high PR back links..

**weblover50** · 03-30-2011, 10:08 AM

OP, do you really think there would be a set number, and ridiculous if it existed would google put it out to public? Think about it man, its not something so easy to rank on the first page of google.
There's a lot to it than just number of backlinks.

1. Get a wide range of all these backlinks, because Google likes variation. (other search engines too)
2. Make backlinking a part of your action plan and do it on a regular basis.

**VandaGould** · 03-31-2011, 12:52 AM

its not the quantity of links but its quality..if you wanna maintain top position then your SEO campaign should be continuous..

**nsdoi** · 04-01-2011, 07:39 AM

To remain first on front page of search engine you should keep updating the content of website with high keyword density and should build quality backlink on everyday basis.
