It looks like Google rolled out a new algorithm update last week. It has been confirmed by Danny Sullivan at the Twitter handle @searchliaison;
This week, we released a broad core algorithm update, as we do several times per year. Our guidance about such updates remains as we’ve covered before. Please see these tweets for more about that:https://t.co/uPlEdSLHoXhttps://t.co/tmfQkhdjPL

I did see some changes last week, starting on last Sunday March 10, 2019. But I am not sure if its because of this, I started a new link building campaign on my main site a few weeks ago which might be kicking in as well. I even got a very valuable link from a big news site.
Did you see any changes in Google rankings? Or anything else at all? On one of the bigger webmaster forums (webmasterworld) I saw some topics about it people mentioning this was a huge update…
Valuable backlink by just asking
As I said; I got a very valuable backlink by just asking for a link. The site has a domain authority of 61 with a page authority of 71. Good link if you ask me. This is what I did; I searched google for my website and saw a couple of sites talking about my website without any link. So I mailed three of these sites and one of them responded and quickly added my link.
I just asked friendly and they wrote a friendly mail back and added the link. The other two sites didn’t bother to answer and didn’t add any link, but that doesn’t matter. At least I got 1 valuable link which normally would cost quite some money. Might be a good idea for you to do the same. Who knows where your website is mentioned 🙂
