can parasite SEO be a good source of back links given there's enough of them especially in both I actually think that a lot of parasites can be fantastic back links it's just again because your intent is to try and rank those pages and you're manipulating Google if Google does ever hit those parasite Pages or if those parasites get hit at a subfolder level you can then risk getting your own website hit you don't explicitly link from parasites that have got a high likelihood of getting hit to your own domain and generally speaking I never normally use parasites as backlinks yes they can be a fantastic backlink but as you would do with any link building you want to do your due diligence and make sure that it's going to come from a site that isn't going to get affected and isn't really spammy and isn't selling links to you know like Viagra sites and casino sites on maps
