How can I legally influence/increase website citation?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

The citation of a site is one of the parameters by which search engines seem to evaluate its quality. How can I influence / increase it legally? Write useful and high-quality content - but how can other sites pick it up and quote it? Need to post articles with links to your site? Are there sites where you can do this for free or with a minimum budget? Or do they mean something else by quotation ...

Answer 1

It is best to write articles with 1-2 links inside this article and post them on other resources (as a rule, this happens for a fee). But it's quality. And choose tougher platforms for posting your articles. And one more thing, do not post the same article on different sites. 1 article for 1 site.

Answer 2

I have a specific example with a site selling furniture fittings, on which, with my 0 efforts, the citation increased from 0 to 20, now it does not fall below 10. I still don’t understand what the secret is, because on the site, in addition to several items of goods, there are prescribed headings Keys and description nothing. If you look at the list of incoming links, you can find a bunch of directories that independently added the site to their list.
