Is anyone using Pinterest for link building?
-
They have dofollow links and I have read somewhere that every repin will be counted as a new link. Is this true?
-
i just pm'ed you let me know if i can help. The key to pinterest is group boards
-
You might be right, I'm just asking as I seem to be getting so much conflicting information about this. But it does bring a lot of traffic, so I'm definitely going to work on a more organised way of using Pinterest
Thanks for taking the time to reply!

I actually work with a client in the wedding space as well and they have thousands and thousands of shares but i wouldnt say it has the value of a link
-
I've heard quite a few people saying that their PR has gone up after they started using Pinterest as part of marketing/link building. However, I can't check if what they're saying is true.
I watched the video that Matthew suggested and he claims that he has 800 links coming from Pinterest. I'm sure that must count more than just a social share?
-
I dont think it counts as a link but im sure it has the same value as a social share. Google knows what pinterest is and knows how to treat it.

Thanks Matthew!
Will definitely have a look at it -

Has anyone been able to by pass charges to have links removed?
I am working on Google Reconsideration Request Process for a website and have been asked by a few links to pay a certain amount to have my link removed however, the links were placed without my knowledge is there any way to be able to get them to remove without having to pay especially since I did not ask to be linked anyway? Does anyone know if Google has a templete that has been used in the past that possibly works well to bypass charge due? Thanks!

Link over-building?
Hello all. One of the first things we do for our clients is to claim their local listings, include them on a set of selected directories (8-10), and blog directories (5), if applicable. Since they will all be linked to the client site, could doing all of this at once run us into problems with unnatural link growth? Thanks! Frank

How much Link Building?
I'm wondering how much additional directory links to a site, on a monthly basis, would be too much, and potentially seen as too manufactured in Google's eyes. I am referring specifically to good quality, or relevant, directory links, nothing very spammy. I know there is no specific number, just wondering what the consensus is. Would a 10% monthly increase in linking root domains generally be considered too much? 5%? Thanks for your input!

So I ran into a site that was not ranking 4 days ago and has over 2 million links to it on some keywords. My guess is this is a link bomb, but the issue is this is pushing one of my sites down. Does anyone know a good way to over come a bomb like this?
So I ran http://www.riogrande.com/ into this site not that long ago and wanted to see if any other SEO's have an opinion on it. I've seen a Google bomb before, but the amount of links going into this URL is insane. The thing is how does one over come a Google Bomb? Do you just wait to see what Google does or do you just hope to rank under that URL? I should also note that it appears that all the keywords to it are relevant to the sites content. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks

Any Tips for Link Building for Boring Topics/Businesses?
I have a number of clients that own businesses in 'boring' sectors, such as: Toxic Waste Removal Steel Erecting Household Plumbing (Boilers, etc...) Link building for these sites is quite difficult. Creating compelling content and 'link bait' is particularly tricky. I found a good post from Michael Gray on the subject, but I don't think food (or McDonalds in this case)is a particularly difficult subject to write about. Any more tips on how to approach this would be appreciated. Thanks
