Changing the content and design of your website can affect your backlinks in several ways. If you alter URLs or remove pages, any backlinks pointing to those URLs will break, leading to 404 errors. Additionally, if the content changes significantly, it may no longer be relevant to the backlink's context, potentially reducing the effectiveness of those links. However, if the changes are mainly aesthetic and the core content and URL structure remain intact, your backlinks should largely remain effective.
