EGOL, what is a signpost?
I know I am supposed to know everything, but that is why I have you!
Keep on own site... but share....signpost...?

This is what we do. Keep the content on your own site... but share where only a signpost pointing to your site will be present. This earns links, brings traffic, and reduces duplicate content risk.

I am doing that method but didn't see effect. Without good keyword position no traffic will come in my blog.

Huey,
As you have unique content, Why can't you create blog on your own website. And publish content on own blog instead of putting them in article and web 2.0 sites. After posting content in blog share them on social media. By that you will get direct traffic on your website.

You answered my question and your answer was posted by DiscoverAfricaGroup. This is a very low value way to go.

Creating links on different websites is the key... Submitting multiple articles to the same websites/Directories wont have as much of an effect as if you submitted to other websites.
I have also heard that links in article directories and web 2.0 sites are devalued by Google as they are easily "created" and not "Earned"
If i was you, I would search Google for websites looking for guest authors and submit your article to those websites.
Search this in Google and you should get a few websites to submit your articles too.
"keyword"+“Guest bloggers wanted” OR “guest blogger wanted”

yes this one - Ezine article better than Hubpages in terms of having an affect on SERPs?
I am actually posted one article on Ezine and Hubpage with the normal anchor/keyword text to boost my keyword position.. i see the effect, last time my KW position is 147 and now it is 25-26.. but don't know should i continue doing the same method or should i also do something else (please advice). I am doing everything manually not by any software.

Huey,
I think you are giving us a bit of a vacuum here. Can you tell us a bit more in terms of what you are wanting to affect in the SERPs? Or are you simply asking is an Ezine article better than Hubpages in terms of having an affect on SERPs?
Thanks,

Backlinks 101, one or multiple?
Analyzing a competitor backlink profile I noticed they have the habit of adding multiple links to the guest post/advertorial they get, one link to their site, plus some links to authority site like wikipedia and institutional websites. Is there anyone with some data, testing, and so on, supporting this? I can see their SERP positioning is very good, but they spent a lot of money on quite expensive links, so I don't know if it's the DA of the linking domains or the multiple links making the difference. Anyone has an idea?

Multiple guest posts from one site have any effect on rankings?
I have started guest blogging and have sites asking me for more content. I understand that regular guest blogging is great for building authority as an author and has the potential to get more links through word of mouth and other sites linking to me. The more posts I do the more exposure I get. But if I have say 3 or 4 posts on an external site with each linking to my site (to a different url and with different anchor text) does that have any effect on rankings as all links come from the same domain? As I understand it links from different root domains are what matters. Presumably a site with links from 5 different sites with 10 links on each external domain totalling 50 links wouldn't rank as well as a site with links from 50 different domains (1 per domain)?

Links from Directory's
I have been looking at the Directory's recommended on the SEOMOZ site. All of those that I have looked into do not appear to have a page rank for the actual page that my link would be appearing on. They all appear to offer N/A as the reply.Is this a problem? Thanks in advance for any replies!

Backlink's using duplicate content in article directories
I've had a link build report of all the links an SEO company have got us but a simple search for some of the content in Google with phrase match brings up about 3 pages of the same content posted to different article sites. I think it is doing something but will it just be penalised over time?

Are my new resource sites worthless?
I have ended up with several hundred sites which I purchased off the seo company I use as they went belly up. I purchased them as I had spent a small fortune buying links for the years and I thought that if they went under all my links would be lost. When they transferred the sites into my accounts in go daddy the owners names changed to one owner! Therefore google either know that I own them or at the very least know that only a few people own them as I had four go daddy accounts. Previously they were all registered to different people. The registrar details have since been changed to various owners but I guess the damage is done. I have gone from pos3 pg1 to pos3 pg2. I ranked highly for lots of terms and they have all dropped. I don’t want to be using black hat techniques and my intention was to continue to build content on these sites with a view to adding links to other relevant sites in the future. Not all of them link to me and they do link to lots of other sites that the seo company did work for To be honest my only concern short term was not to loose the links. Now I feel the links are considered worthless by google and I don’t know if I should keep the sites or throw them away! I think all the sites need redesigning and updating and this is what I intended to do. However now that google have seen that they once were owned by one person have they become worthless?

Multiple submissions to article directories
Hello, I would like to ask if I can submit the same article to multiple article directories. I have read that while only the first published article will gain credit and show on search engines, but the all the links generated from the publishing the article at different sites will still tally up and count as separate backlinks to my website. Is this true, or is 1 or a few links going to be counted from the 1 article?
