Pagerank question
-
Hi, SEO friends
I have a question and i'm very thankful if you could help me.
My website was a pagerank 4 but recently I checked it, and my new pagerank is 0 or the result is: N/A, I don't understand what it's going on. Even this one has 4,627 external links.
Could you help me, please?

Google has stopped updating the page rank data in the toolbars so i would not worry too much about the PR info. Have your rankings suffered? Has your traffic dropped?

Hi
Have you checked for messages in Google Webmaster Tools? It could be a sign of a penalty I.e. Google devaluing a large portion of those 4k backlinks you have.
My advice would be to head on over to http://www.linkdetox.com and run a health report on your backlink profile.
If you need to clean things up a bit, start by emailing the domains that contain those "high risk" links and request removal then go ahead and disavow them.
After all of this start building back some authority by creating great content, sharing and earning solid backlinks from high authority sites.
I hope this helps, if you have anymore questions please ask.

What method are you using to check your pagerank?
Also if you are comfortable sharing your URL in question that will provide an easy way to check.
Thanks

Backlink question
When I create a website for my clients, I always put our website link in the footer of the description, just to say 'powered by ieatdoorframes' with a link to our website. On SEMrush, its showing as a negative backlink with the reason 'compound', suggesting its a 'money term'. I add this link as I've had success getting new work from clients who like the site we built. I'm new to these terminologies and wondering what I should do?

Backlink question
Hi all. Here's the scenario. There is a company who provide financial services to their online clients. On ALL their clients sites they have a "payments-by-us" style logo with backlink to their homepage domain name. This means they have over 3,000 links from a multitude of non-related websites - with just 3 or 4 anchor text keywords in these backlinks. No surprise they have been hit by Penguin My questions What it the best practice for these type of linking LOGO's. Should they link to a dedicated page,and NOT the homepage? Should they have branded + anchor text, no text, or just branded? or a combination of each Should they even be a link at all as they are coming from such a diverse group of sites? I understand how Penguin penalises for overuse of money word keywords as anchor text. This is something that has definitely happened here (by the bucket load) ... Assume the anchor text is "Green Chips Finance" and that phrase is also overused and a bit "stuffy" in their homepage. Here's my question - could simply lowering the prominence / significance of "Green Chips Finance" on the actual home page, help in reducing the impact of the damage caused by the thousands of backlinks with "Green Chips Finance" as the anchor text? I say this as they have a similar number of back links saying "Red Chips Finance", but there is no mention of "Red Chips Finance" on their homepage other than in the keywords and a couple of standard text mentions (no H1, H2, alt text etc) ... interestingly, "Red Chips Finance" (not the real words) is Google No1 whereas "Green Chips Finance" has been demoted from longtime No1 to about 4. Cheers

Disavow links from questionable blog
Hi everyone, I noticed today that we are getting quite a few backlinks from a blog that promotes some rather seedy ideals (it's called zoklet). Specifically, they are linking to some products we sell that prevent shoplifting, so I'm drawing some conclusions about their motives. I don't think the blog itself is spammy, but I'm just assuming that it's a bad neighborhood and we should distance ourselves from it. The only reason I'm questioning the disavow is because of the warnings involved and that it might affect our rankings if we do it. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Domain Question
Hello fellow SEOmozers! I'm trying to register a domain name that contains keywords for my business, however the .com is obviously taken (however its just a parked domain without a site) so I have an option to get either .co .us or .net I wanted to know if the domain extension makes any difference for the search engine or does having .com gives you an advantage over having .co .us or .net? Thanks for your input!!!

Pagerank optimization
Hi, I know that pagerank is not of that much importance but still I got few question regarding pagerank that I wish to be answered by senior seomoz staff! I heard that the pagerank is used in determination of original content by different ways i.e higher pagerank site get indexed faster and have low chance of easily penalized Higher pagerank website entitles you to get your newly written content indexed/ranked well without any backlinks just based on internal links. I would like to know in detail about above two statements, and lastly I would appreciate if I can get help regarding dmoz listing or any other listing that worth it in terms of pagerank optimization. Most high pagerank websites are quite strict in linking to other sites, and those who sells link on the site doesn't seems worthfull! Detailed insight is appreciated on each and every point. Thanks in advance

Question on Links from Directories…
Hello,
Link Building | | inhouseninja
When I do an OSE back link analyses of some sites that are listed in some directories we are considering, for almost all the directories and companies in them, the directories are listed in the OSE report, listed as followed, and usually have decent domain rank and page rank. So this means that the link from the directory is obviously being picked up by OSE and it’s listed as a followable link. My question is just because the link is picked up by OSE does that mean that the search engines value it too? Or could Google see the link ok but throw it out of the equation, presumably because it does not “like” the directory? Hope this makes sense
Thanks!0
