White hat link technique to banned domain
-
The question is:
I have branddomain A (manually penalization by google, one year ago and after 4 consideration requests and more than 3/4 of links removed, stills banned) authority 42
And and new branddomain B (with fresh content created after penalization in the case of no recovery as it happen) authority 26
There are no links from A to B, both are now with same traffic but i want people that find me on domain A (partial penalized) to come to my new web brand. Both domains have same name, different extensión.
So the question:
Can i link with photo domain A to domain B, if i place nofollow and no ancor text on those linked photos.
I want to have my traffic unified and i dont want to go against google guidelines

You cannot get a site out of a penalty from redirecting the banned or penalized site to a new domain. If you're only looking to link images to the unpenalized site you're probably fine if you nofollow them since image links don't push rank. Keep the alt tag off of them so you're not suggesting any semantics. To be really safe if done properly you could javascript them.

I'm wondering if doing a permanent redirect from your old domain to your new would be the thing to do? Hopefully someone else can jump in here and add their expertise as I've never tried this. I do not think the penalty would transfer to the new domain but neither would all the link juice from the old domain, which really isn't doing anything currently since you are being penalized.
I have a client whose old SEO company ended up getting them penalized. We have not filed a reconsideration request since we are only 48% of the way going through the spammy backlinks and asking for them to be removed. Most webmasters aren't responding but some are and I have noticed our rankings increase considerably even though no reconsideration request has been filed. Have you tried going through ask asking for all the spammy links to be removed? If not then that may be why they have not removed the penalty.

Site is propdental.com to propdental.es (brand url)
Different content, diferent servers, diferent database,
same address, same phone numbers, it is my company. I just want to tell traffic that they should go the new page
What is your suggestion
-
Nofollowing allows you to safely link to another site, but if both sites are targeting the same keyword universe and you are exposing ownership by interlinking, same phone number, same address, same server, similar url and site structure, same database, etc then you are going against Google's guidelines. Interlinking just puts you at more of a risk if that is the case.

Technical : Duplicate content and domain name change
Hi guys, So, this is a tricky one. My server team just made quite a big mistake :We are a big We are a big magento ecommerce website, selling well, with about 6000 products. And we are about to change our domaine name for administrative reasons. Let's call the current site : current.com and the future one : future.com Right, here is the issue Connecting to the search console, I saw future.com sending 11.000 links to current.com. At the same time DA was hit by 7 points. I realized future.com was uncorrectly redirected and showed a duplicated site or current.com. We corrected this, and future.com now shows a landing page until we make the domain name change. I was wondering what is the best way to avoid the penalty now and what can be the consequences when changing domain name. Should I set an alias on search console or something ? Thanks

Should I disavow links to a dead sub domain?
I'm analyzing a client's website today and I found that they have over 300 spammy sites linking to a subdomain of their main site. So for example, say their site is clientsite.com, well they have hundreds of links pointing to deadsite.clientsite.com. That subdomain was used at one time as a staging site, and is no longer active. Are those hundreds of spammy sites hurting or potentially hurting my client's SEO? Or is it a non-issue because the links point to a dead subdomain? We believe that that staging sub domain site was hacked at one time, and thats where all those spammy links came from. Should I disavow them?

It's not link buying, but...
Which of these strategies, if any, cross the line from relationship building to link buying? Assume all links are do-follow. You're a local business. You give the local Boys & Girls club a few hundreds buck a year. In return, you get a very nice link on their Sponsorship page for 12 months. You send a sample of your product to influential bloggers, for the purpose of a review and hopefully a link back to your website. One of your clients is a college bar. You invite 50 college kids over for a slow evening and stuff them full of chicken wings. Then, you ask them to please review and link to the bar on their college wiki. You give a client a free service, in exchange for that client linking to your business on its blog roll. You take a blogger out to lunch, and pick up the tab. Later that day, the blogger writes up an amusing little story for the blog, and links back to your desired website. In your email newsletter, you put out a request to your customer base, "Please link to my website, and I'll provide you a special 20% off coupon."

Good link networks?
Hey Mozzers, quick question about link networks. I've identified quite a few, like these: Build My Rank Unique Article Wizard Authority Link Network Article Ranks EZ Article Link Socialadr Linkvana SEO LinkVine Does anyone have experience using any of these? The basic premise is they own or their members own tons of different blogs. You write an article, give it to them, they publish it one one of those blogs. You include a link in your article. Done. They charge a monthly fee to use and all that, so is it worth it? Anyone had any success with them? Finding mixed things on forums online, and since many of their websites like awfully spammy, wanted to poll the Mozzers and get your thoughts.

Possibly a dumb question - 301 from a banned domain to new domain with NEW content
I was wondering if banned domains pass any page rank, link love, etc. My domain got banned and I AM working to get it unbanned, but in the mean time, would buying a new domain, and creating NEW content that DOES adhere to the google quality guidelines, help at all? Would this force an 'auto-evaluation' or 're-evaluation' of the site by google? or would the new domain simply have ZERO effect from the 301 unless that old domain got into google's good graces again.
