You may be able to use these broken links to your advantage, though. After finding a broken link, reach out to the site owner and tell them about the issue – then recommend other links (including yours!) that can replace the broken one. Because you’re doing them a favor, they may link to your website as a way to thank you for your help.

3. Replicate Competitor’s Backlinks
One of the smartest ways to find new link-building opportunities and improve SEO is to replicate your competitor’s backlinks. Choose your main competitors and the websites that rank in the top 5 for your primary keywords. If they rank above you, it’s a good indication that they have a better link profile and high-quality backlinks.
Now analyze your competition’s backlinks and replicate the links with good authority. Often, the more complicated it is to get a website’s backlink, the higher value it has. ‘Nofollow’ links won’t help you with search engine rankings like 'dofollow' links but may drive some relevant traffic to your site.
