Link Management Software
-
Hi everyone,
I'm new to SEOMoz Pro, but have been reading articles on this website forever!
I'm looking for a software to help me organize links I've built, including (genuine) comments I've posted on blogs, forums, links from directories, articles or other websites.
I'm not talking about automated directory submission software or some other shady submission software. All I need is a software that could help me organize all these links and check if the link is still there from time to time.
One of the feature I'd like to have is the ability to retrieve page related information such as domain age, PR, incoming links on page, outgoing links on page and the theme relevance of each of these links.
Any good recommendation?

I like Raven's tools for link building. I have never tried buzz stream, but I am going to give it a try. I can't afford to have both Moz and Raven's.
The content manager in raven is VERY buggy. And axribe is very stripped down. I love scribe, but with ravens its limited.
Bugs with ravens content are as follows:
Meta description does not pass from raven to WordPress seo (you have to go into wp to re enter) when you do it created a duplicate post in WP which is a second bug. I mentioned this to raven and they said it was a bug with WordPress.

I don't think this is possible with Raven Tools!

BuzzStream definitely caught my attention!
It's much more powerful in it's link management feature.
Now I'm in the dilemma of choosing between Raven Tools and Buzzstream.
Raven Tools come with other neat features at the same price. It's content management and Scribe integration is quite attractive for me.
Any good advice?

Thank you Moosa!
Raven Tools is indeed a very powerful tool.
I was just wondering if we need to purchase subscriptions for certain features separately like Wordtracker so that it works within Raven tools?

Hi Chunlei,
There are a number of tools that can help you source and keep track of your link building process. I've listed a few of the most popular ones below:
One of these should fit the bill

After reading all your requirements there is no one name that can come in to my mind…I guess for retrieving page information there are many browser tool which can do this…I guess SEOmoz tool bar have the ability to check how many incoming links are on the page, how many outgoing links on the page, do follow and no follow links and more…
When you talk about management of links and check if the links are still available or not then in that case I think Raven Tools is better at this area…
These recommendations are my personal recommendations but are different alternate tools that can help you with the same.

When conducting a link building strategy does it matter the country the link is from?
We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us. The links are from relevant websites and topics. Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

We're looking at providing SEO for a website that has the majority of its incoming links from websites created solely to provide links. Few have bad spam rankings. How worried should I be about those links?
The majority of incoming links to a prospect's website are from website pages apparently created solely to provide links to the website. Few have high spam scores. The sites linking to the main site have versions of blogs with linked text. They seem to be providing positive SEO value now, but I'm concerned they might get noticed and hurt the main site in the future.

Are Directory links relevant?
What are everyone's thoughts on directory links now a days? I'm talking about the old tried and true ones, like Yahoo directory and DMOZ? We had previously been on a couple and removed the links, thinking it was hurting us. But we've been falling in rankings for a while now, and I'm trying to think of some ways to bring us back up (even if they're small). Do you think it would be worth it to be added back in? Anyone's thoughts on this would be appreciated.

Pursuing Links on Sites You Have a Link From
Is it a bad idea to spend resources to get a second link from a site that already links to you? It seems like the marginal value of each additional link is much smaller than the first link.

Paying to Remove Links?
I emailed a directory asking to have my link removed and they responded that it costs $20. Does anyone have experience paying to remove links? I would never do this on a mass scale, but for individual links is it worthwhile or a waste of money?
