Directory listing and open site explorer
-
As per my previous post regarding my new client. I am dissecting all the previous seo companies docs and basically there are hundreds of directory listings on paper however site explorer does not show any.
my question is this does site explorer not list directories site or are they worthless?
-
thank you, I always forget about Majestic. I am currently checking the directories manually. and at present I do not have access to webmaster tools. I will give Majestic a go thanks

If you don't see them in OpenSiteExplorer, you could maybe try MagesticSEO to see if you can see them there.
If you don't see them in Magestic, you could actually visit the directory to see if your site is listed.
Also, Google Webmaster Tools does list links to your site under Traffic > Links to Your Site.
Hope this helps.
Mike

thank you is there any way of showing every backlink?

OSE doesn't show all the links. Just because its not listed doesn't mean its not relevant. I have a couple of websites that have links from the BBB and those are not listed in the explorer.

Www and non www site
We have 2 sites one with and one without www - http://forrestwilliamssolicitors.com/ The www site has no content and just re directs to the non www site. I have added some links to the site but stupidly have split them between the 2 sites so I am assuming that the links to the www site are a waste? There aren't many to be fair so I may be able to just simply go back to the link and change it but do I need to? Also could someone explain in simple terms what the difference between the 2 sites is and why we need both! Many thanks

Renew Our Yahoo Directory Listing?
Our yearly renewal for the Yahoo Directory is coming up. Has anyone cancelled their renewal, and if so, did you see a drop in SEO? Not sure whether to renew this or not. Thank you for any insight.

Another Yahoo directory question
Hi all Is there any way of seeing if the Yahoo directory is likely to be beneficial for my site? I can see that about 9 of my competitors are in there, and the category that they are listed in has been indexed by google. What other factors could help me choose whether to submit my site? Thanks,

Advice for brand new site
Dear All I have been an SEO for several years now, and have just laucnhed a new site www.householdsaver.co.uk its in its early stages as I expect to add a community option where people post deals and offers they have found, share them with friends etc My question is really are all the old seo practices still worth doing? Things like directory sites, blog comments, articles sites, social bookmarking etc.... (I have already built up twitter users on the account before the site went live) With Moz's trust factor is it best to go for highrank trust sites first or... I guess you could say that I am suffering from what do I do first and is it all still worth doing and what are the early pit falls to think about..? ie too many links too soon and from to high or to low trusted sites? Any comments from anyone who have put a new site live in the past couple of years would be appricated. Thanks James

Listings, paid profiles and directories
Hi, In the industry I am working in (education), we do have a lot of portals offering paid listings (for example profiles featuring a school, the courses you offer, sometimes with reviews etc). Almost all big competitors and big names normally do have these kind of listings. Besides from having to decide if these sites really bring the relevant conversions, I am wondering about their impact on SEO. An example for an offer:
Link Building | | ecnic
Our Top Picks listing is a 40 word listing and logo we put on any 30 pages of our web site, example.com for 12 months, for $595 US. You can choose the pages you want, or we can put you on all our [category] pages, or certain continents/countries you want to target. Now, I am wondering: Do I have to worry about my linking profile ? (All of sudden a bunch of links with the exact same anchortext and content embedding to our site?) Or can I just decide to go with a paid listing based on the link value the page offers me? Looking forward to reading what you think!

Getting a link from a page on a site with high site DA but low PA?
Does anyone know if it is still worth it getting a link from a page on a site with a really low Page Authority - say a news page on a site that has an SEO Moz tool bar PA of just 1 or 2, but the domain of the site has a high DA like say 83 Is this worth getting?? Thanks
