The most important types of links are as follows.

1. Nofollow vs. Follow
Nofollow links are typically used when you want to link to another website, but don't want to ask Google to crawl that site.

Nofollow links
To designate a link as nofollow, you must add the rel="nofollow" attribute in the link code. Nofollow links inform Google that the link should not pass PageRank .

The nofollow link is useful for two reasons:

When you need to link to a site, but don't want to endorse it.
When the link is beneficial. Google introduced rel="sponsored" (and rel="ugc") as an additional type of backlink attribute, and prefers users to use rel="sponsored" for paid or profitable links (such as paid ads, banner ads, affiliate links, sponsored content) instead of rel="nofollow".
Remember that nofollow links don’t directly pass authority. However, they can still build brand awareness and bring you referral traffic.

Follow links, on the other hand, are regular links with vnpay data attributes that inform Google that the link should pass PageRank.

But before you start asking for backlinks all over the internet, keep a few things in mind:

The links you request should come from a website related to your niche.
Consider the performance and credibility of the site.
It is best to write a well-crafted email before you start contacting site owners.
