Link pipeline software
-
Has anyone used the link building software - www.linkpipeline.com ? Any feedback would be much appreciated
-
As someone else here says, this can do more harm than good.
Indexing links is sometimes necessary but there are other methods. This software builds links to your links. May be more than you generally need and leaves a foot print.

Keri,
OMG!! That advice is awful. I feel bad for the new people here and apologize for the bluntness.
Some of the best links are from non profits, EDUs and other large sites that dont necessarily index well.
Non profits and EDUs typically dont pay much attention to SEO but their links are authoratitive. Non profits typically dont have site maps and each department is their own fiefdom. Usually no cross linking between them and each department usually has their own surface links (primary/navigational links).
Additionally, Google is extremely good about indexing news sites as soon as they publish and checking for changes for a day or two but generally wont check again.

Thank you for your feedback!

I personally prefer to have links to my site on pages that Google already knows about, not pages where I need to pay someone to create a ton of automated links so those links get noticed.
There are forums that may speak highly of this software, but SEOmoz isn't going to be one of those forums, it's just not in our philosophy. For more information on the viewpoint of many of the people around here, check out the beginner's guide to SEO and the chapter on building links at http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links

Automated link building? I think you'll find the majority here would advise against any such software, that kind of thing can do more harm than good.

About Link Earning?
I own an e-commerce store and I am get started with my SEO strategy. I know content is extremely important when it comes to link building, however for an e-commerce store what can I do as far as content. So far my only idea is blog posts. It's a furniture store so videos are really hard to do. The blog posts relate to home decor and interior design. My question is if people are going to be linking to my blog, will this help my website rank for product terms? The blog is part of the website, websitename.com/blog.

How much time does it take for the links to be forwarded to redirected link?
Hi there,
Link Building | | MoeezLodhi
Thank you for taking out some time for this question; I have changed the permalinks last week for a website.. I forgot to redirect old permalinks to the new one.. So I did 301 redirection, it has been 4-5 days since I did that but the links are not forwarded to the new Permalink so far.
How much time should I wait for the links to be forwarded to the new permalinks? Secondly, I am sure I have done the 301 redirect correctly, as when I go to the old url / permalink it directs me to the new permalink. So I am sure 301 is done correctly. Do I need to submit the sitemap again?0 -
Link Building - Affiliate Link Programs
I'm getting some conflicting information when researching this... I want to create the most organic link building strategy that not only gets high authority sites linking to a website, but relevant websites. I'm creating an affiliate link program where I link to partner and affiliate companies, who in turn link back to me. The question is where to put these links. I was initially thinking of putting them in the footer so they add credibility to every page, and in turn ask my affiliates to do the same thing. However; some sources say that Google no longer looks at links in the footer section. Is it true that Google doesn't count links in footer sections? And do you have any tips on creating this Affiliate Link Program?

OSE shows links on sites but can't find links
Hi mozzers, I'm cleaning up our backlink profile and looking up anchortexts in OSE. I downloaded and selected one anchortext. However when I go to the sites OSE found, I can't find the links. I look in the source code and onpage keywords. Is it because of my lack of skills that I can't find the links 🙂 or isn't OSE working properly.

Linking for multiple clients
We own a small web design company that both creates the sites and then does the seo marketing for them once they are created. The business has grown to have over 100 customers. However, as we sell more sites we find our SEO team is somewhat short staffed. So far, the area that suffers the most is the link building aspect of SEO. The sites we build are for dentists and usually only contain 10 to 20 pages. Enough to list the services they offer and where they are located. Here is my question: We need to get the most effective links possible for over 100 sites with just a couple of employees. What would be the most effective links to try for. We cant chase down every stray link for our doctors. And, we don't have time to do in-depth research for each client each month as we are already pushing ourselves to the limit. In time, we will have more employees to help share the SEO load. But for now, where should we be spending our time most effectively? We can usually only budget one or two hours per client each month for linking. Thanks for any advice you can offer.
