-
Hello,
I am thinking , I will rank my site without SEO .
I will add quality content on my site . Will not do any backlinking ! Can anyone suggest me if it is really possible.
I know some guys or some websites those are ranked without any SEO attempts.

Howdy businessowner,
If you're targeting low competition/long-tailed keywords, you shouldn't have a problem ranking. However, if you're trying to obtain the number 1 spot I'd recommend looking for several link opportunities that would be easy for you to obtain. Having even just a handful of links to a page can really boost it up.
Good luck, I look forward to hearing what happens.

Hard to say until you try! And remember, if your content is good it will attract links, which is really the best kind of link building.

Kinda helpful !
I am planning for low competitive keywords and add minimum 400+ posts . Does it helpful ? Will it rank ?
And One thing , Content will be created by specialist. (Very high quality )

Depends on what kind of terms you're competing for. You'll definitely not start ranking for keywords like: facebook and microsoft but if you start with very much long tail keywords having only awesome content should definitely be enough from time to time to start ranking.

Hey,
This would be a nice experiment I would say. Give it a shot and please do share the results here. Looking forward.
IMO, linking from the external sources or inter-linking adds a lot of value from SEO perspective. Here, you're planning to not even consider these things for ranking. The SEO game has changed completely in last few years and today, its very difficult to rank in search engines without optimizing for them at all.
I don't know how exactly you're planning to promote this content, whether you're incorporating UGC in your product or your basic SEO elements are optimized (meta tags, header tags, url structure etc.) while doing this experiment. But trust me, this is going to be a very very tough game. Good luck for it.

Re: Inbound Links. Whether it's HTTP or HTTPS, does it still go towards the same inbound link count?
Re: Inbound Links. If another website links to my website, does it make a difference to my inbound link count if they use http or https? Basically, my site http://mysite.com redirects to https://mysite.com, so if another website uses the link http://mysite.com, will https://mysite.com still benefit from the inbound links count? I'm unsure if I should reach out to all my inbound links to tell them to use my https URL instead...which would be rather time consuming so just checking http and https counts all the same. Thanks.

Unpaid Followed Links & Canonical Links from Syndicated Content
I have a user of our syndicated content linking to our detailed source content. The content is being used across a set of related sites and driving good quality traffic. The issue is how they link and what it looks like. We have tens of thousands of new links showing up from more than a dozen domains, hundreds of sub-domains, but all coming from the same IP. The growth rate is exponential. The implementation was supposed to have canonical tags so Google could properly interpret the owner and not have duplicate syndicated content potentially outranking the source. The canonical are links are missing and the links to us are followed. While the links are not paid for, it looks bad to me. I have asked the vendor to no-follow the links and implement the agreed upon canonical tag. We have no warnings from Google, but I want to head that off and do the right thing. Is this the right approach? What would do and what would you you do while waiting on the site owner to make the fixes to reduce the possibility of penguin/google concerns? Blair

Link Building Question
Hey Moz'ers, I have created several blogs on different domains for the purpose of writing good content articles that contain 2-3 links per article that go back to my website. It has been up for about 3-4 weeks. I am not seeing my results/links showing up in OSE, is this because it still needs more time or is there something else I could be advised to look into? In theory these blogs will only contain 2-3 links from each domain to the site. I was also going to make sure the anchor text per link is different (keyword, brand name, random anchor like click here). Side note: How does this system sound as part of one small aspect to link building? red flags? Thanks for all the responses and advice.

Internal linking between categories
Is it necessary to do internal links between the same categories of a website ( Let's say Ihave a category about shoes and in the category I have a page about boots and one about sandals ( should the page boots be accessible from the page sandals and the other way round or is the back button going back to the section shoes enough ) ? If internal links between the same category ( sandals to boots ) are needed/recommended is it also a good practice to do site wide links between categories ( shoes and and bags for example ) Because by reading google recommendations "Make a site with a clear hierarchy and text links. Every page should be reachable from at least one static text link" I am not sure if they are talking about breadcrumbs or text links i am kind of lost ... Thank you,

Links to Facebook pages
I would like to ask if anyone has any knowledge regarding linking to a company's facebook page. I have built a few links to a client's facebook page in an effort to have it rank better in SERPs. I just learned that unlike twitter and linkedin, it is apparently not possibly to directly link to facebook pages. At least it is not possible from a search engine's perspective. If you follow any facebook page link while you are not logged into facebook, you are redirected to the facebook home page. I can't think of any way around this obstacle. I'd love some clever solution such as providing a URL which includes a basic dummy facebook login but there is nothing I am aware of to achieve this result. Does anyone have any ideas on this topic?

Too many links!
Hi, I'm running a wordpress blog (modhop.com) and am getting the "too many links" on almost all of my pages. It appears that in addition to basic site navigation I have plug-ins that create invisible links that are counted in the crawl...at least that's my guess. Is there a good way to control this in wordpress? A nofollow in the .htaccess? A plug-in that does this? (I'm sort of at novice-plus level here so the simplest solution is ideal.) Thanks!
