Last Linkscape index update
-
I noticed that under my link analysis that it said: "Last Linkscape index update: 08/14/2012." I would like to try to get a full understanding of what this means? Is this stating that my competitive Link Analysis and link metrics have not been updated since August?! Any help and tips would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Dan,
Since a couple of months Linkscape is called Mozscape and is the basis of data for tools like OpenSiteExplorer (OSE) & the Pro campaigns. The last index update for Mozscape was at the 28th of November and included more than 76 billion urls. This means that your link analysis was also using data from this update. Hopefully this answers your question.

Google Panda Update question
Since the Panda update from December 21st, 2012, some of the keywords I used to rank for are now gone beyond page 20. What I don't get is that the websites that are now ranking are definitely full of crap and they have tons of unnatural links pointing to them. I've analysed their backlink profiles and most of them have only exact keyword match anchors pointing to them. So what's going on? Is buying tons of crappy links still a valid tactic? I know it is not but how come thoses sites outrank me? I mean it happened to LOTS of my keywords. I don't get it...

New to seomoz, scared to death after last update
man, I know I am opening the flood gates for some serious debates, so let's just not and say we did. All I want is for some people to help me out. My site is www.ontracparts.com we sell heavy equipment parts. So we were steadily increasing in traffic and rank, before penguin. I had ordered a few backlinks from a semi spammy source (meaning that they used spun content) Like I said our rank was increasing pre-penguin, and I stopped ordering. We seemed to hold our postitions after I stopped ordering (for about 2 weeks everything remained the same) So, I ordered more of them. Then penguin dropped and our rankings and traffic remained the same. for a little while that is. Soon the rankings started to drop. Probably a direct result of those links right?? Well here is the weird thing.. Traffic is slowly increasing again now that I ordered more links. Rankings drop, but traffic increases? what the heck? what should i be doing now, post-penguin... just writing and publishing content on the site everyday?? How do I go about getting links if I can't just buy them anymore?? I should also mention that there is practically ZERO guest blogging opportunities.. I say that because there is nobody blogging about heavy equipment right now. Not that I could find anyway.

Link Spamming or Not? Block Internal Search Results From Indexing?
We are looking at providing our customers with the best experience when performing a site search for a product. Would it be bad SEO practice to have our internal search results show results for all 4 Brands linking to different domains? This would mean multiple outgoing links to other owned sites from the same IP. Is it a best practice to block internal search results using robots.txt?

Panda Update: Isn't a link still a link?
I was doing some link building and some SEO's said that the Panda update affected many websites. I am going to use eZineArticles.com as my example. EzineArticles was affected by the Panda update and does not show up in the SERPs as much as before. But they still have doFollow Links coming from the articles I am submitting. QUESTION: Regardless if EzineArticles was affected by the Panda Update, isn't a "Follow Link" still a "Follow Link" OR am I completely wasting my time on this devalued website? Edit: Yes I know a PR 0 page is not as valuable as a PR 9 page. I am asking from the standpoint of the affected Panda Update domains overall.
