Case studies reflecting success with linkbuilding campaigns
-
Hello,
Was wondering if you all could point me to case studies reflecting successful linkbuilding campaigns / practices. We'd love to learn more about companies (like Trip Advisor) that have had success in producing great (10x) content and securing many links to increase in ranking.
Thanks!

Hi there! There are a ton of link building case studies around. For starters, I'd suggest scrolling through the Link Building category on the Moz Blog; I'm seeing a handful of case studies just on the first page.

Hi Gyorgy - thanks for your response! Yep, we're doing what you recommend, aiming for smaller quarterly ranking increases and growth in pageview traffic. I changed my question above to reflect that. What we're looking for are case studies of companies that have done it very well to know where and how to maximize our SEO efforts.

#1 ranking on the 1st page in Google for competitive keywords is such a complex task that no case study can justify that link building achieved that. You need a complete SEO strategy to target the 1st page, which includes on-site technical SEO, content marketing, link building, PR, social media and more.
It's better to have realistic goals, rather than 1st ranking in Google. E.g. growing the organic search traffic to the website by 20 or 50 or 100% year-on-year. Growing the assisted organic search conversions by x% year-on-year.

Linkbuilding backlinks list to linkpartnes embed in website?
We do backlinking for clients. And for this we also create a backlink page for linkingpartners (afcorse not all link have a backlink). For easy maintaince it would be handy if we can create a page on our server that is embed on the website of our clients. Is it possible to do this so there is no negative SEO? (google will rate this page and the content perfectly) best regards, Vincent

How Useful is this website for Linkbuilding
I've been looking at A to Z of materials trying to determine how much time it is worth spending on building a company profile and adding additional information http://www.azom.com/suppliers.aspx?SupplierID=2343 DA is 50+ and PA for a new listing seems to be 17 of so. My site currently has a DA of about 20. Once of my competitors seems to have put a lot of time into it Other than a profile you can also write articles and post news. It's worth pointing out that as a whole the sector has no useful blogs and most linkbuilding is done via directory listings. And Most companies have back links from less than 20 other root domains. Thoughts would be gratefully received

Linkbuilding to http/https
Hello, Last year we changed our domain name from http to https. In the .htaccess we included a 301 redirect from http to https. Nevertheless, some pages do not let you link to https, so for linkbuilding we sometimes need to use http://www.domain.ext in stead of https://www.domain.ext. Would this be a problem? I should expect with the 301 redirect that we don't have an issue here, but I would like to be sure. Although, I can make the site accessible without https too, but I don't think this is a good idea regarding duplicate content, is it? Thanks. Tom

MOZ campaign questions
Few things I can't figure out My campaign shows I have 62 back links and 62 followed links. Majority of these links are from completelt different Websites (e.g. Blogger, Wordpress.com, etc.) But my analysis shows I only have 7 linking root domains Further, from one of your videos I learned that linking C-blocks are

important for rankings. Is there a way to tell if sites are on the same C-Block so I can get more C-Block links?* Thanks, Derek0 -
Linkbuilding for Clients? Do I create new email account for outreach?
Hey Guys, So in the past when I would build links for a client I would create a new email account or have them create a new email account for their website which I can use for email outreach for building links. Also I would try to use their twitter user accounts to get in contact with other niche bloggers for a potential link back or a social mention. Is this how you guys suggest I should continue going about building links for a client? Or do you suggest using my email (agency email) or a random gmail account for email outreach? Thanks

How long for SEOMoz to reflect new inbound links?
I have carried out some minor link building for my new site (site A) and have some links back from several directories and 1 from ezine and one from squidoo as well as a few partner sites and such. I also have another site (site B) which was linking to site A several times from a footer link, this has now been amended to just one link. The problem is that SEOmoz still only shows 3 linking domains to site A (there are at least 12 if you perform a manual search) and it is still showing many links from site B even though there is now only one. All these changes where made at least 3 weeks ago, how long before Seomoz picks them up.
