Do webmasters use backlinks for SEO now?

Earlier acquiring a large number of backlinks was one of the most effective methods of improving traffic and SERP ranking for a website. I have noticed that the demand for backlinks has reduced in the last few years. I would like to find out if webmasters still acquire backlinks for their websites, or use other methods to increase traffic.

Backlinks are still important, without backlinks from reputed sites and high-ranking sites, your website will never get ranked high on the search engine result pages.

I have noticed that there is a major decline in the link sales at the backlink marketplaces in the last few years, so I thought that webmaster are not purchasing backlinks.

I think even though so much has changed with backlinks and also with SEO, backlinks are always going to be something that will be a major factor on your ranking in search engines. I would definitely as a webmaster always work on building your backlinks even now as you will be surprised at how much it will help you in the long run.
