When researching about SEO, crawling and backlinks I stumbled upon a very interesting fact.
Now I might be totally wondering in the dark here and things are different of how I percieve them just because I don't have the full picture and or don't understand things on the right level yet..
BUT...
When I researched some high authority domains, their page rank, and backlinks, I doscovered that some actually have as referring pages or domains their own bit.ly shortened urls!!
Wait what, does that mean that if I post my bit.ly shortened links like this:
Binance Earn - Discover The Best Crypto Staking Platform of 2021...that these will index and give me a page rank and authority boost?
Now you see those 3 links, they are actually hyperlinked keywords to my pages shortened by bit.ly, but here is an even funnier story...
...the links I found when browsing high autority websites with ahrefs and ubersuggest tools were recorded as backlinks without any keywords like this:
Now those are 2 links to my home page and another inner page but without any keyword being hyperlinked, just a raw url address shortened by Bit.ly.
The question that arises now is:
WILL THESE LINKS BE INDEXED AND RECORDED AS ADDITIONAL BACKLINKS?
If you know something about this topic, feel free to comment as I will be checking this back and see how this resolves once crawlers check this page up.
