Link building

i want to ask a question. i am sure this is kind black hat seo.
look at this web site http://www.199999dollars.com/
if we also create website like this and put a banner as domain for sale and in the footer put back links to our domain ?
thanks

Of course the OSE domain authority isn't going to be truly representative for a domain like this. I don't think search engines would treat it so generously (it's only got a toolbar pagerank of 1)
-
Exactly, I agree with you, is a shame that this goes on, probably always will !
Those figures from OSE will be correct at face value, however won't take into account any search engine penalty that could be applied and indeed, should & likely will be applied at some point. Unethical spammy practices such as this can have high scores such as you've identified here, doesn't mean what has gone on is sustainable though.
Which leads on to your question; Yes, what they've done (based on your findings) is the creation of a link farm, with many of their own domains with poor quality websites/landing pages all linking to one another. It's a great example of what not to do for anybody with any ethical search ethics.
So don't worry about it, just concentrate on creating your own valuable site that adds some value to your visitors' experience.

actually these kind of domains dont have any value and no one want them too..

even i feel the same.
that is so sad that these companies are doing this kind of things to gain popularity.. they are buying more and more domains and just linking to their own root domain.
but when i see opensiteexplorer for this site www.acuista.com/... these are the results
| Page Authority | Domain Authority | Linking Root Domains | Total Links | Facebook Shares | Facebook Likes | Tweets | Google +1 |
| 64/100 | 57/100 | 773 | 35,637 | 68 | 11 | 22 6 | |most of their links coming from this domain http://www.comprarportatiles.com/ which is their own website and when ever the user adds a product to the cart and proceed to check out it will be redirected and add the same product to the cart of acuista.com
the second method above mentioned also treated as spam ?
thanks

Keep in mind how people stumbling upon sites like this may perceive you site/brand.
For people trying to find a domain for their business these kind of operations are rather annoying and can feel like exploitation!

Hi Ravi
As you mention SEO in your question, I am relating my answer to SEO.
Your suspicions are justified, as in there being no SEO value in doing anything like this. It adds absolutely no value to any User's Experience, no SEO value, I personally and professionally regard it as a pointless unethical practice.
If somebody has a domain for sale, then fair enough in putting a sales banner on the homepage, however doing so with the hope of gaining any SEO benefit and including all those links to other spammy domains is a game that can only be lost.
So I'd recommend to Not follow suit and to help keep the Web a better place by avoiding doing the same if SEO benefits are the main goal.
Regards,
Simon

When conducting a link building strategy does it matter the country the link is from?
We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us. The links are from relevant websites and topics. Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

Link Building where link building is dead. Latest tactics in a land of content.
Hello, What is your latest link building techniques considering manual link building is basically dead, and you should really build good content to drive results. Link building has really become less important. It seems to be much more 10X content now. What would you recommend for basic link building considering this besides the 50 first Links video by Rand, which is excellent. Thanks, Bob

Link building with About.com and ehow.com
Does anyone know if About.com has a policy on providing back links to websites. A client of mine has had a product reviewed on about.com as well as being included in a "how to" article, but no back link was provided. I checked out the page and noticed "paid for advertisement" back links over random words but no back links on any of the pages I randomly searched that were related to the topic being discussed.

Link Building for a New Blog
We are setting up a new blog and I was wondering what is the best way to build good quality links for a new website? I have been researching this quite a bit on the forums and a lot of people talk about writing good content which I agree with however no one will find that content if we are not ranking in Google for our keywords. From what I have read the following is what I should be doing Directory's Creating Link-bait (Info-graphics) PR Releases or Getting News Sites to link to us I have heard a lot of mention of using Articles sites like ezinearticles but I have also read that Post Panda that they dont have as much link juice as they once had and also I don't think that for a Blog that we should be using it as well but maybe I am wrong? Would appreciate some peoples suggestions
