Backlinks have again become a huge ranking factor for SEO and AI search (again). Brand building is crushing search now:

Interesting data shows Google ignores 99% of content, but it trusts who is talking about you.

1. The top result has 3.8x more links than spots 2 to 10, which means a good link is worth it for your organic search campaign.

2. Also, 95% of all web pages have zero backlinks, so a PR campaign can be huge for your brand to stand out from 99% of junk on the internet.

3. I like this one how Google’s AI cites the top 10 results 52% of the time. Still think ranking on Google is not important?

4. Authority sites saw 35% more traffic after the core update on February 14th. Google's giving clicks to sites it trusts. TBH I'm also seeing fluctuations.

I am seeing brand ranking because of their link profile.

Try it:

- fire up a search tool
- plug in your competitors
- look at market share
- see who's been rewarded

What can you take away from this?

I would be building:

- niche relevant links
- use niche relevant UGC
- collab with sub niche brands
- focus on expertise content
- brand building (you can't skip this)
- fix/remove decaying pages/folders

BRAND BUILDING has never been more important.

Do this to get better traction with SEO/AI search campaigns. 

Are links important?

In 2025, I got a stage invite in Denmark.

The stage shared by the top LinkedIn names.

My host got everything sorted for me.

Tickets. Formal invite. Hotel stay.

Ubaid was ready to travel for the first time out of Pakistan.

First time to be on a plane.

"Finally, a dream coming true..."

I booked my appointment for immigration.

3 days in a row. One document after the other.

From fingerprints to financial proofs.

I did everything I could have done.

Result? Visa rejected.

Reason? My Pakistani passport.

I was holding the yellow paper and reading the clause. An invalid perception about my passport.

(All this while I submitted a whole sack of papers.)

But there is "Khayr" in every delay.

Life continued.

A few months later, I got my visa for Germany.

Since then, I have traveled to 7 countries. Met my favorite LinkedIn humans. Attended the coolest Link Up meetup in Bosnia.

What I thought was a rejection. 

Allah knew it was a redirection.

Keep pushing. 

The right doors will open for you.

At the right time.

- With love, Ubaid. ❤️

"What do you think of my banner?"
"Do you like my banner in general?"
"Any chance you can look at my profile?"

The most asked Qs since last week in my DMs.

I’ll give you two routes. You decide how serious you are.

(Save this. You’ll need it later.)
______

Route 1:

1. Duplicate your banner file.
2. Remove everything. Clean page.
3. Bring the "headline" first.
4. Social proof after it.
5. CTA at the very end.

Adjust your 3 elements in a way that the reader sees them in the following order.

Headline --> Proof --> CTA

Note: Your headshot, after everything is done.
______

Route 2:

1. Click on my profile. Link in Bio.
2. Access "Banner Ninja" training (free).
3. See me doing it all on runtime for you.
______

Your banner is the hero section of your profile.

You either get ignored or explored.

PS. Drop your banner below. If it’s unclear, I’ll tell you.

LinkedIn Profile Masterclass. 60 seconds.

(Save this before you change anything.)
 
1) Banner → Core offer, CTA, proof.
2) Headline → What + Who + How
3) Bio Link → 1 primary CTA for leads
4) Featured → 1-3 core offerings in order
5) About → Problem. Agitate. Solution.
6) Projects → Your result-driven case studies
7) Recommendations → Authenticity always wins.

Fact: Your banner alone drives ~50% of retention time.

PS. Comment "profile". If you want me to rate yours.

You will never see your profile the same way again.

(A shift that changed how I use LinkedIn.)

Imagine this.

You DM someone for the first time.
What happens next? They check your profile.

Your comment on a post goes viral.
What happens next? They check your profile.

Your post starts taking off by chance.
What happens next? They check your profile.

LinkedIn puts you in search results.
What happens next? They check your profile.

LinkedIn will never tell you "leads are waiting" for you.

It will give you signs.

Profile views. Connection requests. Silent lurkers.

Take the signs and optimize for them.

If your profile is not sorted in the first place, you have already lost them.

Simple as that.

PS. How many average "profile views" do you get?

I have audited 17+ profiles in the last 2 weeks.

(What I found will make you rethink yours.)

1. Mobile-first profiles win. 70%+ users are on mobile.
2. Mismatched CTAs across profile confuse buyers.
3. Poor color contrast makes the content invisible.
4. Visitors spend 7 of 15 seconds on the banner.
5. Featured order matters more than you think.
6. The About section is "about them", not you.
7. Complex jargon kills strong positioning.
8. Visual cues beat copy in 0.1 seconds.
9. Featured isn’t for pins. Link offers.
   
I can keep going ...

Enough data points for you today.

Bonus: Keep your profile up to date always. People love meeting the evolved version of you.

(Repost ♻️ if helpful.)

PS. Which one from 1-9 surprised you? or not at all 👀

The "Black Box" test for design.

(Check your next post today.)

1. Pick the carousel or post you want to test.
2. Show it to your peer or a family member.
3. Ask them what they see.

If they paused to "figure out", or they couldn’t answer it properly. The design needs to be iterated.

Simple as that.

If it's not functional, it’s not even a design.

Design class over.

PS. Whom would you pick to show your design?

7 out of 15 seconds users scan your banner.

(The easy guide for you all.)

LinkedIn Banner Framework

AI: I can design for you now.

Me: Wait… really? That’s insane.

AI: What do you want then?

Me: An infographic. Something clean.

AI: 
*takes the text, 
*puts it in a grid 
*adds 3 random icons

AI: Here you go. Designed.

Me: That’s… formatting. Not design. 🥴

AI: Faaaaaaaaa

You spend hours to draft a post.

You hit “Publish”. It tanks.

Does this means your content was not good?

Or is it just a bad day for posting?

50/50. Sometimes mix of both.

Here’s the way I see it.

Each of us know their average engagement.

Let’s say, 10 reactions in first 7 minutes.

If you’re getting 2 or less, bad day. 

Keep the content for another day.

If not, let the fish swim in th water for a while.

PS. Curious to know your mindset around it.

"You send the Stripe link and people pay up?"

Monday. 8:50 AM. He asked curiously.

Yes. Works all the time.

I don’t have a complex process at all.

1. A design inquiry happens.
2. I ask for your current brand state.
3. Ask if your offer and positioning are sorted.
4. Check my availability status for the matching offer.
5. I share the offer breakdown document.
6. If it aligns, the Stripe link is next.
7. Onboarding and getting started.

No time urgency in the offer. 

Works only if it's a priority for you.

Not just "exploring the options."

My process is designed as a collaborator, not another fiverr service seller.

Need an expert peer by your side? Welcome.

If not, plenty of options out there.

Peace out ✌️ .

Letting it speak itself. 

No long captions.

(The profile upgrade feedback.)

PS. If this resonates, I'm taking 2+1 new coaches or creators until 28 Feb. The last time I opened it was in 2025. Drop me a DM for details.

Tricky things about the featured section and fixes.

If you’re opening Canva without knowing exactly what you’re trying to communicate, you’re designing blind.

Design is less about the tool.

And more about approaching the problem with the right mindset.

I assembled a system that helps you think before you design.

PS. It may not be the kind of thing you're into. It's a different kind of approach. If you’re curious, send me a DM, and I’ll share more.
