What's Angela/Paul link profile?
-
Hi,
Very new to this and appreciate your time to read and answer my question.
What's Angela/Paul link profile? and what should I look out for if someone is offering to provide this type of link building to me?
-
I'm with you...
If it's about branding then it's no use using SEO Link Vine.
However, if its just about links? then maybe SEO Link Vine can be considered, but with the questions you thrown about content that reads "think before you beverage"ra ra ra..., then SEO Link Vine couldn't be of a big help.
-
Their site talks about how they rely on content spinners. My question to you:
In three months, do you want to go to the trouble of tracking down sites linking to you with content that reads "think before you beverage" and "thank my deity" and ask them to remove the links?
There is no free lunch. There is no free content or endless quality free links. It's your choice, but I'd rather not have links than be a part of that network. I care too much about the reputation of my brand online to have stuff like that pointing to me.
-
Yes, thats the downside of SEO Link Vine. They helped my keywords rank on first page but nevertheless, I was also worried about their automation service.
-
SEO Link Vine looks like a blog link network similar to Build My Rank.
They advertise "How to get hundreds of thousands of high quality one-way links, taking your Google ranking from wherever it currently is, straight to page 1 over time."
And talk a lot about automation... free content.. etc. Install a piece of code and you're done.
Doesn't seem like something Google would recommend.

I am not sure if Angela Paul LInks today will still do any good for keyword SERP. I've tried them once way back 2010 but I bet the links really dont give any value, well they give value but not that much. Few are even just spam links.
Yes, it offered on Warrior Forum, someone name Tom Brite offer a package and will give you a hint on how to get angel paul links.
But i recommend SeoLinkVine instead.

Around SEOmoz, some of those types of link building tactics might get you the same type of response that a sales rep for Omaha Steaks might get at a vegan supermarket.
To think some people ask me why I spend so much time in the Q&A. I just need to bookmark Keri's response and that about says it all!
-
If you're looking on forums for opinions, you'll likely find that the opinions vary depending on the forum and the type of people that frequent each forum. I don't use Warrior Forum myself, but the people that go to that forum generally have a different viewpoint than the people who go to the SEOmoz forum. Around SEOmoz, some of those types of link building tactics might get you the same type of response that a sales rep for Omaha Steaks might get at a vegan supermarket.

Thanks Keri, I've reading a bit about and getting confusing messages. Some swear by its effectiveness and some say that it passes on a lot of spammy links.
I guess what I need is to read a lot more and keep asking questions from experts like you.
Cheers

If you search for Angela Paul backlinks you'll find info about a backlink building service. It's not usually of the type often recommended on the SEOmoz forums, but a search will tell you a little more about it.
Given that you're new to everything, I'd suggest reading through the Beginner's Guide to SEO at http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo, especially the sections on links, and read blog posts here as well. It'll help give you an idea of what works and what are cheap shortcuts that may bite you.

Thanks Ryan, I appreciate it

I would urge extreme caution at having anyone else "build" links to your site. Many sites have been penalized for manipulative links. I suspect more sites will be penalized in the future.
I suspect "Angela paul" is either a misspelling or misunderstood phrase. There are many companies offering cheap link building services out of India, the Phillipines and other countries. Most of those services run in violation of search engine standards and you run a strong risk of being penalized.
-
Ok, someone offered to do some link building for me and when I asked how you would get the links, his answer was, "Angela paul type profile link and social bookmarking work".

Can you share any context for your question? It does not make any sense on its own.

Internal Linking - Post links vs Side Bar Links behaving differently
Hi, I have a question regarding the internal linking behavior. My website is www.hindimeaning.com which is approx 3 years old. I have approx 450 posts. Now i have a widget on right sidebar "Popular posts". A widget below my posts "Related Posts". And a simple html CSS menu above the posts (I removed menu around 6 month before so currently it will not show.) I crawled my site with moz crawler (same are the result from google crawler as well) and it shows menus links as internal links. While sidebar widget "Popular posts" and "Related Posts" are not showing as internal links. If we talk theoretically what i learn till now is "every link on a page behaves as internal link". Then why the widget links are not showing as internal links. Thanks, Mahesh Kumar

Links from PRWeb press release violate Google's quality guidelines?
My site has had a manual action performed on it by Google indicating that I have inbound links that fall outside of their quality guidelines. I did my own research, found what I thought was the issue, had the links removed and requested reconsideration. Google's response surprised me in that they highlighted two specific pages with links that were the direct result of valid press releases and a publisher picking up our release off a wire service. Has anyone else seen this occur? Anyone had a case successfully reconsidered? I realize that I don't need to do anything at all as the manual action is in effect and will stay that way, discounting those links, but I would rather a) not have any manual action against my site and b) know for the future so this doesn't happen again. Also, is this applicable for guest blog posts, which effectively create the same type of backlinks? Thanks

What's more important page authority Vs domain authority?
Hello everyone, I am fairly new to SEO so I'm still trying to get my head round everything, I am currently looking into some back links .. well looking at competitor's back links to copy. I was just wondering what's more important page authority or domain authority? So for example if a page has a page authority of 50 and a domain authority of 10 is that better than if a page have page authority 10 and a domain authority of 50. Thanks so much in advance!

Is it ok for a web design company to have a branded footer link on their client's sites?
Now I know that in general footer links to your site from another site are bad...this is because they are very often spammy...however I like to think that Google is pretty smart and I am of the opinion that a web design company should be able to link back to their own site. Here's why: If a visitor comes across a site that they love the design of, and they want a new website built...why shouldn't they be able to click through to the web designers site? (as long as the client is happy to link to it of course) I also feel that if there are a whole bunch of high authority/pagerank websites have been designed by a web design company and they therefore have a footer link pointing to them, it's probably a pretty good sign that they're a good web designer. Is it not? In saying this I think that the link anchor text should be branded rather than keywords. For example I usually write "Web Design by Static Shift" I'm interested to hear people's thoughts. Am I being blinded by my bias? Thoughts aside, and onto the facts...what are people's experiences with footer links for a web design company. Do they help or hinder?

How do sites have so many 'total links'?
I've been analyzing some of our competitors: essayedge.com and papercheck.com Both sites have a large number of 'total links'... about 93,000 each. The former has about 1,200 linking root domains while the latter only has 195. Even for 1,200 linking root domains, 93k total links seems like a ton to me. Our site has 101 linking root domains and only 299 'total links'. I'm quite new to this whole SEO game and admittedly still learning a TON. Am I missing something here? How do sites generate so many links? This seems nuts to me. Thanks for any help!

Quick Wins and 'Low Hanging Fruit' - how do I identify them?
Hello, I have fairly recently taken up a position as an in-house SEO, having previously had my own (not terribly successful) ecommerce venture, so my SEO experience is at beginner level. I have read a LOT in coming up with a strategy (Laura Lippay's 8 Step Strategy, amongst so much more on here, has been epic), and have come up with something fairly comprehensive. However, it's taken me months! This is partyly due to other non-SEO responsibilities, and partly due to finding my way around all the tools & resources available, how everything fits together and what should be prioritised over what. This is massively inefficient for future projects, or indeed if I ever got a job in agency, and so I need to get quicker/more productive. I keep reading about identifying and capitalising on 'low hanging fruit' - how does one go about this? Details would be hugely appreciated - starting from the bottom up, i.e. keyword research, competitive & backlink analysis, link building etc. For the record, I have zero coding capabilities (something I plan to rectify one day soon) and so my strategy revolves primarily around content and outreach, rather changing site architecture. In any case, our website seems well put together, since new content is indexed very quickly. Thanks so much in advance, Ali (UK)

Should I Just Copy A Competitor's Backlinks?
Forgive the newbie question, but now that I have found SeoMoz and OpenSiteExplorer, should I just piggy back on my competitors backlinks? What would be the downside? By way of explanation, I've never had the need to explore SEO before. Our site, Widgets.com has always ranked highly for all Widgets keywords because we have the keyword in our domain and our site has been around since 1998. But out of the blue this summer, a site, let's call them WidgetsCircus.com suddenly began outranking us on widgets keywords, and pretty much every keyword we can imagine in our little widget universe. Now that I have run OpenSiteExplorer, I can see how they've done it. They've pretty much spent the last year commenting on blog posts all over the place, editing wiki pages, etc., and built thousands of links for all these widget keywords. So, I'm wondering: why shouldn't I just go down the list of links and do exactly what they've done? Where they commented on a blog, why don't I just comment right along side them. Obviously, this has worked for them! Wouldn't it work for us too? Or is that too simple?
