…need to be relevant, from websites in the same/related categories or industries.
If you have an auto site and you have links from shoe websites, Rankbrain won’t like that.

S TAY I N N I C H E
Google compares your site to the good and bad in the same category or industry.
If your site looks like the “good” site you rank higher.
You could be misclassified if you have too many categories on your site and you are new & w/o authority.
Staying in niche avoids competition.
