How else to find backlinks for training site
-
Hello,
How would you recommend finding and gaining backlinks for
nlpca(dot)com
other than looking at the top 10 competitors?
Also, we could do an infographic but the owners don't have time to produce a lot of additional articles.
Thanks!

I'd also recommend checking out the SEOmoz articles on Link Building to give you some ideas http://www.seomoz.org/blog/category/4.

Bob,
OSE and Link Finder are 2 amazing and useful tools, you should definitely check them out.
Although I think that the number one link building strategy that always works and always pays off is content, actually quality content.
I think you are in a quite interesting niche and with the programs that you offer you could pulled a lot of high quality content that you can then spread through the social media channels.

I would literally search everything under the sun re: topics I noticed on your homepage. I.e.:
- training
- certification
- wealth
- hypnosis
There's gotta be tons of bloggers on most of these topics on top of associations or organizations as well. There's probably even directories and forums specific to all these topics and so I would scour those as well. Start with the basic searches on the broad topics and then start going down tangents.
You can find some gold in those hills, if you travel far enough...

Yes, try to find the backlinks for your competition...not just the top 10 competition for your top term. Use other keywords to see if the same set of websites ranking. I am sure there will be other niche sites ranking for some of your long tail keywords or something. Look at their backlinks as well. I would also sometimes try to look into the backlinks of the backlinks to see if I can find any opportunities.

I've used OSE on the top 10 competitors. But I'll check out the competitive link finder.

Bob-
Have you used the SEOMOZ tools on the site. Opensite explorer and competitive link finder under research tools is a great place to start. It will give you detail much deeper than the top 10 competitors. I find that the more time I spend on SEOMOZ, the more value I get.....not just "brown nosing" these guys. No affiliation.
Happy seomozing.

Backlink Question
Hello. I have an eCommerce Flower Shop Website and I have created an Online Free Game so player can create flower arrangement and stuff like that. If I had this game directly on my website and provide Embed Code so other Online Gaming Portals can add the game to their website. Would it be good to create back links for my website and increase my domain authority and SEO of my Flower Shop website? I ask because I am also in the Gaming industry and when I release my games, they can be added to hundreds of other gaming portals. But I am just afraid that since this is not is the same domain activity, this might hurt my SEO for my flower website. What are your thoughts about that?

Robots.txt and redirected backlinks
Hey there, since a client's global website has a very complex structure which lead to big duplicate content problems, we decided to disallow crawler access and instead allow access to only a few relevant subdirectories. While indexing has improved since this I was wondering if we might have cut off link juice. Since several backlinks point to the disallowed root directory and are from there redirected (301) to the allowed directory I was wondering if this could cause any problems? Example: If there is a backlink pointing to example.com (disallowed in robots.txt) and is redirected from there to example.com/uk/en (allowed in robots.txt). Would this cut off the link juice? Thanks a lot for your thoughts on this. Regards, Jochen

Reindexing a site with www.
We have a site that has a mirror - i.e. www.domain.com and domain.com - there is not redirect both url's work and show pages so basically a site with 2 sets of URLs for each page. We have changed it so the domain.com and all assorted pages 301 redirect to the right URL with www. i.e. domain.com/about 301's to www.domain.com/about In the search engines the domain.com is the site indexed and the only www. page indexed is the homepage. I checked in the robots.txt file and nothing blocking the search engines from indexing both the www. and non www. versions of the site which makes me wonder why did only one version get indexed and how did the clients avoid a duplicate content issue? Secondly is it best to get the search engines to unidex domain.com and resubmit www.domain.com for the full site? We are definately staying with the www.domain.com NOT domain.com so need to find the best way to get the site indexed with www. and remove the non www. Hope that makes sense and look forward to everyone's input.

How does Google know if a backlink is good or not?
Hi, What does Google look at when assessing a backlink? How important is it to get a backlink from a website with relevant content? Ex: 1. Domain/Page Auth 80, website is not relevant. Does not use any of the words in your target term in any area of the website. 2. Domain/Page Auth 40, website is relevant. Uses the words in your target term multiple times across website. Which website example would benefit your SERP's more if you gained a backlink? (and if you can say, how much more would it benefit - low, medium, high).

On-site links
Hi everybody, There's a lot of information about getting sitewide backlinks, but so few about on-site optimization. Is there a maximum of links to put on a page ? Is there a maximum of link that a page should receive ? etc ... ? So, what is the optimal strategy ? And I'm only concerned about on-page and on-site link, not backlinks commming from other sites. Thanks

Advice on Getting this site ranking?
Hi there I'm looking to optimise this site for SEO -> Gets about 3,000 visits per day but all from branded searches. Gets virtually no 'keyword searches' It's just a landing page at the moment. Would you recommend I integrate a blog with it, so we can start targeting more long tail keywords (free football game etc) Any thoughts/advice appreciated 🙂 Thanks Howard

How to find pages hardest hit
I have been hearing that panda can penalize a website for low quality pages. I have run duplicate content check and done my best to go through the whole website. I hear many people talking about deleting hardest hit pages, or fixing hardest hit pages. My question is how can I find which pages on our website are hardest hit? Is there anyway to check a website for pages that might score low. We do have a ecom section to the website which I am concerned might be considered low quality for each product page. Any advice would be a great help.
