Most significant link building factor
-
Am I right in thinking the most important link building factor is the number of unique linking root domains? Multiple links from a domain won't help me so much?

One link from the Pope's site will be worth 10,000 links from spam blogs.
Multiple links from a domain won't help me so much?
Again, it depends upon the domain. But, if you have multiple links from a very high quality site it will benefit you more than one link from that site. And, if those links hit multiple pages on your site then each of those pages will get measurable benefit... and that benefit, I believe, will flow through your entire site.

It's true that number of unique linking root domains is important. It's true that multiple links from a domain won't help as much as links from new domains.
But there are a ton of metrics that matter - relevance, trust, authority, anchor text, etc. So I'm not sure "unique linking root domains" is the single most important factor. It's definitely important, though, and correlates well with Google rankings: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/announcing-the-march-mozscape-index

I don't think relevancy is crucial. a car site could be linking to your pets site because you sell pet carrying cases for traveling with your pet. It's too difficult for Google to definitely determine relevancy and discount the value of a link. Of course you don't want all links from sites that have nothing to do with your niche!
-
Always remember that "relevancy" is a vital part of unique linking root domains.
If you have 1,000 links on 1,000 different "car" related domains, you might find it hard to rank your "pets" website.

All things being equal, more domains is better than more links. But, I agree with Kevin, it really depends on the trust and authority of the domains. Two links from an authoritative and trusted site are going to be worth a 100 low value domains, perhaps more.
-
I would say (more importantly) the weight of those links (not the necessary number). Multiple links will help from one site, but the value is probably greatly diminished unless those pages are popular (or have a high 'pagerank').

Any value in link building to local pages on my site?
If I'm trying to rank for the term 'wedding band' with my url: http://www.musicliveuk.com/home/wedding-bands will linking to local pages such as: http://www.musicliveuk.com/live-acts/hire-wedding-bands/wedding-bands-london help the main page to rank? I added the 'local' pages to try and pick up any traffic from long tail search queries but my main focus is on getting the main page to rank as the traffic from long tail queries is so small. So is it worth me spending time building links to these local pages in order to try and help the main page rank?

How many nofollow links should we build to have a natural link profile
Hi guys, As with many link builders we have been building lots of dofollow links for our site, so many that mainly our incoming links are dofollow. Some pages have 99.5% dofollow external links which I know is not very natural. In your experience in terms of percentage how much should you have in terms of nofollow external links in your link profile. I noticed SEOMoz has about 12-13% nofollow external links, shall I go with this figure? Thanks guys. David

Which link building method is most effective?
I have been looking at different seo companies for link building. I found a ranked list on Topseos.com. Many of them offer the same services as offshore SEOs, namely: Article marketing blog comments forum comments/profiles bookmarking PR directories Link acquisition by contacting relevants sites and negotiating a fee for a link I know that custom link acquisition is the most effective, but it gets very expensive. And, you don't know what each link is going to cost you. Here are my questions: Of the other methods (other thank custom link acquisition), how would you rank their effectiveness? The other methods seem kinda gimmicky, is it worth the time/money? Have you seen sites rank well for competitve keywords using articles/bookmarking/blog comments/directories etc? How do you know i a company is going to them manually as they claim? as opposed to using some automated software. Thanks
