Pinterest Images
-
6 weeks ago I opened a Pinterest account to promote our baby product website and help develop links. I established x3 categories/boards and pinned the relevant images to each board with the relavant (seofriendly) descriptions. These images show up clearly on my profile page, however if they search for them in the Pinterest search bar nothing shows up. For some reason Pinterets is not showing them in its search results. Can anyone help?

Have you verified your website?
-
Are they showing when you search for images that have been pinned from your site?
-
are they being re-pinned? create another account and search for the boards or images you have them under.

Does an external link to an image file on my site help my SEO?
I found a few websites that are displaying images from my site. Curiously, they have also linked these images to the source image file on my website. I found these because Moz showed these sites in my list of backlinks. I assume that means it impacts my Domain Authority. But does this actually help me in search engines since it's not linking to a page on my site?

No links from Pinterest, wordpress, yahoo, etc.
I'm new to moz and trying to go through some of the tools. I was looking at the link analysis and I had a couple questions I don't see any links from good sites that do show up in my webmaster tools - wordpress, yahoo, pinterest. Just a bunch of spammy sites that I've been trying to shake off for years now and even though we've completely redesigned the entire site they're still there. I have 21 links from my own domain. How do I fix that?

How to derive link value from owned Pinterest-type site?
Good morning! Say the client is Acme Parakeets . . . if we created a "MyParakeetPin" Pinterest style board such as http://themifydemo.me/pinboard/ and promoted it to the parakeet community how might one set it up to generate maximum link value for www.acmeparakeets.com? And, did I set myself up for a 'tweet' joke?

Proof that Pinterest links are worthless for SEO?
One of our most popular blog posts (http://www.yournextdress.com/5-back-baring-dresses-rosie-huntington-whiteley/) has been pinterested 25K-56K times (22K according to Google Webmaster Tools, 56K according to the Pinterest widget). Still, when I do a google search for "5 Back-Baring Dresses Like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley", our blog post is outranked by Polyvore. While the latter has a much higher domain authority, the page they're outranking us with is simply linking to our page and has zero authority. In other words, it seems like over 25K links from Pinterest does nothing for the authority of our page. Am I not understanding things correctly? Let me emphaisize that we've never done any sort of link building on Pinterest, all the links have been generated organically (if that is the right term).

IPTC information in JPEG images
I distribute a product in the US and I do my own product shoots. Some distributors in other countries use my images. I don't mind them using my images, but I would like for them to include all the IPTC data such as copyright and my URL. Is there any SEO benefit to me if these images on other sites include my URL, etc. Best,

Wired image releases via Creative Commons for SEO
Wired Magazine has started to publish images under CC licence as reported here: http://www.niemanlab.org/2011/11/wired-releases-images-via-creative-commons-but-reopens-a-debate-on-what-noncommercial-means/ The images are found here http://www.wired.com/rawfile/2011/11/creative-commons/ They allow noncommercial use (though this is not clearly defined) and request to attribute to the original source and "ask for a link back to the original story where the photo first appeared". The latter does not seem to be compulsory, but of course is a great SEO tactic to generate deep links. What's your take on this? Does anyone have experience with providing image material with the request to attribute you as the original source?

Image only badges giving link juice!?!?
I see some chatter about badges, but no clear definition. A collegue of mine instituted badges on clients website, but these badges are only an image w/ hyperlink; no textual content. He is confident that this has worked successfully before as a link building strategy, which blew my mind. I thought we needed some text, and obviously optimizes anchor text for biggest benefit. Are these simple badges helpful, or do we need some html in there!? He also routes them through bit.ly to track impressions and clicks.. does that have any effect as well? Thanks!

Do image links with no alt tags pass link value?
"... an image link with no alt tag is useless to search engines..." according to a Nov 2007 seomoz blog post. Is this still the case in 2011? I ask because I'm about to obtain a banner link on a high-traffic site (chiefly for the clickthrough value) but I notice the site uses neither "title" nor "alt" tags.
