Is backlink still important for SEO?
 
Even though Matt Cutts said backlink would become a little less important in SEO, but I myself don't believe that
The question is how Google ranks websites? it relies on content? I'm sure any Seach Engines likes a lovely content. But how can search engines distinguish a good content from another? I don't think search engines are so emotional enough to realize better, exellent or worse content
Search Engines are just a machine, they're not a human, so I think it doesn't have a feeling about content.
In fact, Google owns some instruments, that helps google understand how visitors think about sites. Google Analytics can determine users' behavior on sites. But I think google may not know satisfaction exactly. This is the difference between human reading and Google search engine reading.

What happens if so many sites contain equivalent quality content, equivalent bounce rate, time on site, pageviews...? So what is crucial factor to keyword ranking? that's backlink

Another question! why did Matt Cutts try to lower the role of backlink in SEO? Because he wanted to prevent spammers who are getting spammy and spammy everywhere to get backlinks

I don't think the role of baclink would be lowered, it's always valuable for SEO , no matter how google's algorism changes.

People are expecting that backlink will become less important.But i don't think that is possible, though low quality backlinks or unstable backlinks have already become less important, but high quality stable backlinks are significant for search engines.
The most strong arguments that is given in support of the argument that backlinks will become unimportant in future is that after introduction of web 2.0 many sites have came out that allow common people to share anything on web, even links.And prior to it google's role was to give attention to every link, but now it cannot do so, it marks billions of link as no follow because that also disturbs its search engine, so it is breaking its own principle somehow.so google will have to find some other method.
