Fresh ideas on SEO budget spending
-
I have a client who is willing to spend an additional 5k into his SEO campaign.
I was curious if anyone has any other ideas on spending this in terms of link building. Human edited directories work really well and i have seen some huge successes. Unfortunately i have gotten stuck in purchasing these and would like some fresh ideas. Content is a no brainier.
-
What i really need is some really good talented copy writers. Any references? Please message me or email me.
-
Thanks thus far. Looks like im on the right path!
-
Agree with EGOL any type of link bait (like a calculator) is great. Also consider an infographic. We have published a few and I would describe them as moderately successful.
-
definitely thumbs up from me for datasheets / cheat sheets as well.
-
The calculator is a great idea. We have a Perl calculator that gets a lot of use and a couple of printable data sheets that are popular.
-
Another one I'd add to Egol's response is to consider some kind of tool if it is suitable for their market. Strictly it's still content, but online tools fall outside of what most people think of. A well thought out and useful one can generate quality links for the long term.
Remember to leave budget to get traction for whatever you build too.

Content is a no brainier.
The client should prepare articles on the most important things that his clients don't know that they don't know. These should be kickass articles that make everyone who reads them say WOW!
The $5K should be spent on professional editing, a photographer to get great photos, an illustrator to make the graphics that are needed.
If you have another $5K spend it on articles that cover the most important things that his clients should know to get started with his service/product.
If you have another $5K get the best articles storyboarded and shoot video for youtube.

External Backlinks - Should I remove/disavow external blog posts done by SEO company?
Last year my company hired an SEO company to build backlinks for targeted achor text keywords. It turns out that they wrote average to below average blog posts that had content related to my business, but that were placed on odd websites, not related to my business. They did this for about one year before I fired them. Should I try to get each of those blog posts removed and then disavow them? If the external links back to my site are nofollow then it is my understanding that I don't really need to worry about them...is that accurate? Is it too risky to keep any external backlinked content alive when it is on a site that is unrelated to my business?

Forum signature links and SEO
Regarding this article on forum signature links, is this good advice? http://searchtempo.com/forum-signature-links-and-seo/ Doesn't Google suggest a nofollow on these types of forum links? On a related matter, is it a good practice to add a Google Plus link in forum signatures? Best,

Local SEO Help
Getting confused about what is helpful. I have a few questions. Is it beneficial to link to other sites like wikipedia from our main url or our wp hosted blog? Does that help our SERP? We have just built a new sitemap for our site, which is good, we didn't have one before. Should I still do internal linking? 3)If I can get a person with another blog to link to us, would it better to get it in a post or on their main page with a button or text listing? Thanks everyone:) I am just trying to figure out how to spend my time wisely here.

Are links from every page of a partners website to my website bad for seo?
I have asked a partner website to link to my website in the Menu Bar. Which has resulted in a link to my website from every page of the partners website (Over 1000 Pages). The link is not a "nofollow" link, it is a regular link. Can this have any negative effects in terms of SEO?

Is publishing press releases for SEO thorugh newswire sites as effective post panda?
Does anyone have any knowledge/thoughts on how leading newswire sites have been effected by Google's latest updates, i.e. Panda? To date this has been a method (alongside others) I have sucessfully used to build links, but the results of late have not been as good for some clients and I'm beginning to question how effective this is - so I would be very interested to hear anyone else's experiences in this area?
