Link to AMP VS AMP Google Cache VS Standard page?
-
Hi guys,
During the link building strategy, which version should i prefer as a destination between:
- to the normal version (php page)
- to the Amp page of the Website
- to the Amp page of Google Cache
The main doubt is between AMP of the website or standard Version.
Does the canonical meta equals the situation or there is a better solution?
Thank you so mutch!

Hi Fabrizio,
I'd advise you to link to your regular (non AMP) page. Make sure that this page includes a tag with a link to the AMP version of the page.
The AMP page should then contain a rel canonical tag to the non AMP version. Because of this canonical tag it makes more sense to focus your link building efforts on the non AMP version of the page.
See https://www.ampproject.org/docs/fundamentals/discovery for more detailed information on how to include the tags on both pages.
Hope it helps!

Has Google Made Unnatural Link Building Easier?
I see lots of competitors and crappy sites ranking well for highly competitive keywords in the web hosting niche. After analysing their backlinks, I noticed that most of them had only 1 or 2 backlinks to the page they wanted to rank. The anchor text is usually a slight variation of the targeted keyword. Now suppose you are able to rank well for a handful of highly lucrative keywords using very few spammy links. That would mean that even if you got a Penguin penalty, cleaning up your link profile would take an hour at most. I really have no intentions of using this strategy but it's frustrating to see spammy competitors outranking you with crappy sites and a handful of backlinks. Your thoughts?

301 Redirect & Linking Root Domain Count
Howdy Mozzers! If I do a 301 redirect from a domain that say has 200 linking root domains, to a fresh domain will the fresh domain now (when updated) have a linking root domain count of 200? Also, is it beneficial or detrimental to do a 301 redirect for an unrelated website i.e. garden hose website, to a children's playgorund equipment website in order to capture the link juice? Best

Too many on page links
Hello I have about 800 warnings with this. Example of one url with this problem is: http://www.theprinterdepo.com/clearance?dir=asc&order=price I was checking and I think all links are important. But I suppose that if I put a nofollow on the links on the left which are only for navigation purposes I can get rid of these warnings. Any other idea?

Diagnostic says too many links on a page and most of the pages are from blog entries. Are tags considered links? How do I decrease links?
I just ran my first diagnostic on my site and the results came back were negative in the area of too many links one a page. There were also quite a few 404 errors. What is the best way to fix these problems? Most of the pages with too many links are from blog posts, are the tags counted as well and is this the reason for too many links?
