How to find out why a link is not working
-
In URL Open explorer I ran a couple of others and saw they were getting link credit. Our site is not, does anything look wrong in the url below?
Anyway to find out why everyone else on the page of artists is getting credit but we are not?
Thank you,

Thank's Mike, I was just putting in a generic URL.
All the HTML looks correct on the site, but some of the artists are getting a link back and some are not. I will send it over in a PM

Hi Kyle,
I am confused by looking at the URL you provided.
The link is missing an "i" in clients and also cannot end in .comXYZ. It would need to end with something like http://www.XYZclientsSite.com/XYZ. But the displayed URL is also different than the linked to one: www.XYZclientSite.com/XYZ vs www.XYZclientsSiteXYZ.com - like one appears to be a directory and one appears to be the sites root.

I don't know if I answered your question or if I need additional information because of the items described above.

Getting a sitewide links from one domain as oppsed to few links from certain pages, a good, bad or horrible idea?
Hello, I have a website that is performing really well in Google for country specific Real Estate Website. I have had this site for just about 2 years and I have 4600+ indexed pages, and about 50 of my main keywords appear in top 10 results on Google. I have now started a second site with a brand new domain, its only about 2 months old. This one is a Travel website and again its country specific (same country that real estate website is performing well in) and since its still building up the content and has barely a couple of backlinks, I am thinking of adding a linkback to it from my Real Estate Site. Is it a good idea to add a site wide link back from header section of the real estate website to my travel website? Both sites has same country and most of the keywords in both relate to this country. Or will I be better off adding a few text links from few pages with best Page Authority? Or - do you suggest that I do not link the two at all? Both sites are hosted on different servers, with different IP's and one is on windows server created in asp.net while another is a magento site. Any advidce / insight will be much appreciated and thank you in advance.

Link quality
Hi, Having read dozens of your blogs and found them highly informative, i have to ask a question. I am kicking oout our SEO company and have taken over the SEO myself with some excellent results. Our SEO providers tell me that links from any site (irrelevent of their DA) are good, providing they are comming from a relevant source. We are in the security industry and according to MOZ, we have a DA of 52. If i can get a link to our site from another company in our industry but they have a DA of 10, is this really beneficial for me? Info i have read in Moz blogs suggest it is n ot a good idea. Please help. many thanks Daddy Smurf

When do my links show up?
For the last two weeks I have been working on linkbuilding. I have downloaded competitors link reports and started contacting or submitting links. In the last two weeks I have gotten about 50-60 or so. In the newest report it shows I went up four c-blocks. Why is that? It is kind of discouraging.

Link values
I have an interesting question, it's more to see other peoples opinions than looking for an exact answer, as I know noone can give that. If you had a good link on harvard.edu.. how many very low quality links on low DA domains that are full of junk, would you need to match the harvard link... if all other factors were equal. I'm gonna go for 500.. I've had great results with a few high DA/trust links. I'm not looking for anyone to give me a definative answer, just curious as to the views of other SEOs 😄

The links in the profile are no longer "nofollow" the new links are like this: <a href="[/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Estramark%2Enl%2F&urlhash=dWm-](view-source:http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Estramark%2Enl%2F&urlhash=dWm-)" target="_blank" title="New window will open" name="overviewsite"> (http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http://www.stramark.nl/&urlhash=dWm-) Question: What impact does this redirect have for the linkvalue of a link from linkedin. ( it is better than nofollow but what is the impact of this redirect? what actually happens and is the value? URL for the profile i mentioned it on. http://www.linkedin.com/in/blomwouter
