Google says it on their \u201chow search works\u201d page. Our research study confirms a clear positive correlation, and if you ask any experienced SEO, they\u2019ll agree.<\/p>\n<p>But do you actually need them to get a meaningful amount of search traffic from queries that have some sort of commercial value?<\/p>\n<p>To find out, let\u2019s look at some data. <\/p>\n<p>To source our data, we used Ahrefs\u2019 Content Explorer, which is a searchable database of over a billion pages that are filterable by multiple SEO metrics. Then, we:<\/p>\n<p>\u25ba Ran a blank search in Content Explorer<br \/>\n\u25ba Set the maximum number of referring domains to 0<br \/>\n\u25ba Set a filter to only show live pages<br \/>\n\u25ba Set a traffic filter to only show pages that get at least 1,000 monthly search visits<br \/>\n\u25ba Set the trends filter to show the past 3 years of data  in the sparkline graphs<\/p>\n<p>The result? 243,000 live pages that get at least 1,000 monthly search visits with 0 backlinks pointing at them.<\/p>\n<p>Since there are too many results, we split them into 3 tiers based on Domain Rating. <\/p>\n<p>Domain Rating is an Ahrefs metric that represents the overall strength of a website\u2019s backlink profile. The closer the number is to 100, the more so-called \u201cauthority\u201d the domain has.<\/p>\n<p>The three tiers are DR 0 &#8211; 30, DR 31-60, and DR 61 plus.<\/p>\n<p>After going through these results, what did we discover?
