Why Link Building Still Matters
Despite all the algorithm updates, backlinks remain one of Google's top ranking factors. Quality backlinks signal trust, authority, and relevance to search engines.
The problem? Manual link building is tedious. Finding prospects, crafting personalized emails, and following up takes hours per link. Harbor automates the heavy lifting so you can scale to 50-100+ links per month.
