Topical links are the links that are of relevance and current interest to the website. It can also be synonymous to relevant backlinks. Thus topical links are the backlinks coming from niche relevant websites. The search engines give importance to incoming links from niche related websites.

Topical links are mainly used with incoming backlinks. Websites which have similar content have topical relevance.
