Ask Is SEO more about content or about backlinks in the current environment?

[Meridian]

The discussion often comes down to content versus backlinks, but both still play important roles. Content gives people a reason to visit a website, while backlinks help search engines see that others trust the information. Strong content without links may struggle to reach more people, and links without useful content often have limited value. The two tend to work best together. Should content still be considered the starting point of every successful SEO strategy?
