1000 of links on my website ? is it good or bad
-
Hi guys my site: www.dorchdanola-netbutik.dk is a e-commerce store, and generally we have many links on all pages because of the many products and categories.
Im not sure if this is actually bad or good? I've been told that it will definately harm my site when google crawls it. The thing is that google visit my site often and I still have good pageranks in google.
So does it actually harm my site having all these products and categories? And what can I do about it if google see every page as duplicate content?
I also link to my social pages like FB, G+, e.g. Should I put rel="nofollow" or rel="me" on these social links?
Thanks guys!

Hi Anders,
I would expect that Google would see and understand the jquery menu links. They've been able to find links in simple Jscript for several years now, and certainly jquery is one of the most common libraries out there, so I'd be surprised if they're not already all over that.

Hey Michael,
Thank you very much for the answer and your time for taking a look on my site.The thing is, I nearly cant cut down the menu more down. Without the submenues customers would have to skim through lots of products on each single page. So the current structure is more userfriendly.
Would it be better to have a jquery menu that shows the categories when getting the mouse over? Something like on amazon.co.uk ?
I know that my site lacks of low content on site and it will be something I will focus on from next month.
Thanks alot for the reply

You've definitely got a lot of links in there in your navigation, but I don't think it's really going to hurt you. It's doing to distribute link juice pretty evenly across all of the pages linked to from that left-hand menu and the submenus.
You MIGHT consider reducing the left menu to just the main categories, and NOT including all of the submenus. That would funnel a fair bit more link juice to the main categories, and the submenus I'm guessing are all pretty long-tail anyway, so they shouldn't need as much.
I don't see a duplicate content problem here. I'm seeing different content on every page. You might consider putting noindex/follow on some of the intermediate pages that merely list subcategories, like this one:
http://dorchdanola-netbutik.dk/category/belysning-el-artikler-485/
These kinds of pages will be seen as extremely content-light...and that's not so good.
I wouldn't nofollow your social media links. And rel=me mostly you use to link an author page back to your G+ profile, so I wouldn't use that here.

Value of Links? What is each link worth?
Morning Everyone, I just had this thought and wondered what everyone's opinions were in terms of link value in monetary terms. We'll assume for the purposes of this that the links come from contextually relevant sites and that the sites in question have got the Moz DA from being high quality and have a good quality incoming link profile. Its a bit of a theoretical question, but i guess imagine if the only way you could get links was to pay for them, what would they be worth to you. This is link value for SEO purposes, they will have in addition value from traffic from good sites, that no doubt varies wildly depending on topic. I assume everyone also agrees on: The first link from a domain is the most valuable High DA sites are worth more than low ones. So could anyone who has an opinion on the link value suggest a monetary value for links. Its really just using a monetary amount to see how best to target my time. Here is my example of what might be expected, but I am hoping people with more knowledge will perhaps correct it. DA Rating First Link 2nd-5th Link 5th-10th Link 10Plus Links 5 $5 $2 $1 $0 15 $7 $3 $2 $1 25 $25 $10 $5 $2 35 $45 $20 $7 $3 45 $65 $30 $11 $4 55 $95 $45 $19 $5 65 $200 $100 $45 $6 75 $350 $120 $65 $9 85 $700 $240 $95 $15 95 $1100 $450 $200 $30

Partner links - is this bad?
I have been looking at whys to get natural links, another SEO company said that instead of doing Guest Blog Posts there now adding single links to partner pages on websites which have a follow link. To me this sounds like basically a links page rebadged as a partners page. Is this a dangerous practice? or does this carry some weight with the search engines?

What is a good ratio of total links to linking root domains?
Is 100 total links for every linking domain too high? I suppose I could also look at ratios of sites that are doing well in the rankings.

Reposting my articles on other blogs - good or bad?
Hi there! Our blog is full of really good articles on consumer finance topics. Recently we established contact with some local media and even government agencies who said they will be happy to repost our articles on their sites. Question: is it ok to repost our articles as they are and link back to us, or shall we rewrite them to make them 100% original? The media doesn't insist on original content, but I'd like to get SEO benefit from it (the sites are really good). If original content gives us more SEO value, we're happy to do it Please advise. P.S. Using rel=canonicals is not an option (it's government websites and some old school media - they are very not tech savvy).
