Short answer: usually not — broad, competitive keywords almost always need external editorial links. That said, a few realistic exceptions explain why a new-looking site can appear on page one: a domain move with server-side 301s (as suggested) transfers the old site’s signals to the new one; very narrow brand or long‑tail queries can be won purely by relevance; or the SERP simply has weak, stale competitors. Google’s site-move guidance and its overview of how Search ranks pages explain how redirects and many different signals combine to produce results. (site moves, how search works, [ranking correlations]). (developers.google.com)

Practical route when starting without backlinks: target ultra-low‑competition, intent‑matched long tails; build one outstanding, tightly focused page per query (original reporting, examples, screenshots, clear answers); mark up authorship and sources to show E‑E‑A‑T; eliminate crawl/index problems (sitemaps, no robots blocks) and optimize page experience (Core Web Vitals). Use internal links to surface new pages, craft title/meta to improve CTR, and submit sitemaps / request indexing in Search Console. Those measures can get narrow queries into page one, but they rarely scale to high‑value, high‑competition keywords. (E‑E‑A‑T update, Core Web Vitals, crawling & indexing). (developers.google.com)

Verification and cautions: audit the competitor — check for 301s, domain age, and real referring domains with tools (Ahrefs/SEMrush). Keyword‑density tricks and spammy link shortcuts are brittle; Google’s link‑spam guidance warns that paid or manipulative links are ignored or penalized, so outreach/PR for a few relevant editorial links is the durable path forward. In short: for quick, narrow wins rely on flawless on‑page + technical SEO (as several posters noted), but plan to earn a small number of quality backlinks for sustainable first‑page rankings.

They might be doing 301 redirects from the old domain to the new domain. This is telling Google their site has simply moved, and it will help them for a time being. They will still need to supplement this with a constant stream of new backlinks however.

Aside from that, they might just be ranking on the 1st page for obscure keywords, or for their own company name, where there isn't much competition.

Dani is right. Without redirect, no any method avalable that get top in rank with out any back link.

Getting the top ran without Back-links is not the easy task. this may take more of time to update our website without back-links. back-links is important to index our website to the search engine. other we may increase website rank by redirecting the url as above said by

Without backlinks you can not rank your website unless your keyword has a low competitions.Even then you can rank if you can play with keywrod density..

I have good backlinks and i have been doing submissions to quality sites but my site is in 2nd page from long time, what else can i try to get into 1st page?

Member Avatar for Kelly Burby

Well, I guess over here will be correct I don't think that one can rank themselves up withou the backlinks.

Member Avatar for arold10

I don't see why you are trying to do something that is impossible. How in the world do you think that you'll be able to ourank your competitors that have accumulated a significant of back-link over a period of time while your site has none?

Member Avatar for mindstreak

The website would have unique quality content and there has to be a few backlinks present in it.Because high quality backlinks with only a few can help to rank better.

301 redirection more important in SEO, becuase you will optimized your websites responsivily as far as User friendly

I think, most improtant is good quality content. If you will post good quality content on your website then google will rank your website.

There is no way to rank on the 1st page of Google without back links. There is chance to rank for those keywords which have very low searches and low competition by improving your on page activities like Meta tags, URL Structuer, Heading tags, Content with using bold, italic keywords, breadcrumbs etc.

But for the keywords which have high competition and high searches you can never rank without back links.

Traffic is one of the scenario, places the site in first position of the search engine.

Member Avatar for pramodrdd

if you have a low competition you can rank on 1st page without backlinks. for this you need to publish content regularly but it takes some time. if you have a high competition its impossible according to me.
