Backlinks are especially valuable for SEO because they represent a "vote of confidence" from one site to another. ... If many sites link to the same webpage or website, search engines can infer that content is worth linking to, and therefore also worth surfacing on a SERP.

A backlink is created when a page of another website links to a page on yours. Backlinks are important to search engines because they are a signal that the site being linked to has quality, worthwhile information on a topic relevant to the site linking to it. You can think of it as a digital vote of confidence.

Backlinks are important for SEO because they signal to Google that another resource finds your content valuable enough to link to it within their own content. As a website earns additional backlinks, search engines infer that the website possesses valuable content worth ranking well on the SERPs.

An external link refers to a link from a page of a certain website to another page of the website or other websites. If someone links to your website, you have an external link from their website. If you link to another website, they will have an external link from your website.

Search engines such as Google use external links as a vote of confidence. Generally speaking, the more votes you have on your web page (the more external links), the more likely it is to rank for relevant search queries.
