An outbound link is a hyperlink that points at a targeted or external domain and is different from the links present on the Source domain. For example, if you provide links of other third-party web pages on your website, those would be external links to your site.

Outbound links bear great importance in SEO as they provide your web pages with more quality and value for the search engine ranking. Google search engine counts outbound links as third-party votes which improve the ranking of your web page.
 
Outbound links are links that are meant to take you elsewhere. These are links that are going to direct you to another specific webpage or website altogether. There are two types of outbound links dofollow & nofollow.
The dofollow link is the normal link, passes on Google PageRank juice from your webpage to the targeted webpage.
A nofollow link is the abnormal link. It does not pass on any Google PageRank juice to the targeted webpage but instead, it blocks off the Google PageRank flow.
 
Outbound links are links that are meant to take you elsewhere. These are links that are going to direct you to another specific webpage or website altogether. Most, if not all, websites have outbound links. Two sides of a coin.
 
Outbound links are the links you create on your site and point externally to another website/blog. Incoming links are the opposite as these are internal links pointing to your web pages either from other sites/blogs or from your own site.
 
Outbound links send visitors away from your web site. Attitudes towards outbound links vary considerably among site owners. Some site owners still link freely. Some refuse to link at all, and some provide links that open in a new browser window.
