Hi Sergio,
If your domain 11 months+, I would treat that domain like new. 2 links per day is way too much, unless you can send some social signals from Facebooks Ads to justify 2 links per day. I would not build more than 10-15 links in the first month.

Hi Ross
Thank you for your response, I really appreciate but my domain ain't pretty new, my domain is already 11 months+, but I haven't been building links for it, so do you think 2 daily is good for a start?

Hi there,
If you have a brand new domain then your first backlinks should go the home page of your website. You do not want to start the link building process by build building an exact match and partial match anchor texts to your blog without building some authority/pillow with branded anchor texts to the home page. Everything should look natural in Google's eyes, so you should gradually increase the number of backlinks that you build per month. 2 links per day is way too much for a brand new domain.

Think I'm ready to do some link building. Couple questions.
Getting ready to do some link building. I've got several lists of competitors' links, including a bunch of sites with broken links that would be a great fit to link to us. I've got a capable VA to get started work on reaching out to people. Just curious if this is the right game plan, seems a little simple: For this round of link building I'm thinking all the links would point to my root domain. -Find quality sites/links to go after -Find an email to the owner/webmaster -Have the VA send them a value proposition email(i.e. why it's good fit for all)...or tell them about broken links etc. -Follow up myself when a response is generated. -Hope/verify they link to us. Thanks for the help with the newbie questions.

Homepage vs specific page Backlink
Hello, I have a local business and have been working on getting backlinks for highly relevant keywords. I have keyword optimized pages (keyword in URL, title, H1, etc) but I have been sending backlinks to the homepage, as these keywords represent the core of what we offer. See example below: car repair car repair london auto repair auto repair london I have been sending backlinks (with the correct anchor text of course) to the homepage, am I better off sending them to the specific pages? One more thing: the SEOMOZ report talks about cannibalisation of keywords, where for example the page optimised for "car repair" links to "Car repair london". I have links to the optimised pages in a footer at the bottom of every single page on the website, is this bad practice? (considering SEOMOZ talks about cannibalisation? Should I do something else instead (or eliminate the footer links altogether?) I would appreciate your expert advice.

I'm seeing that open site explorer seems to do a good job analysing backlinks
I can see the link text and where they are coming from and i can use that to steer where i want to get links from, and how i want to get links. Am I missing something? Does raven tools or other software have anything more to offer me in managing my back links? I'm not talking about where and how to get them, just in viewing the structure to help fine tune it so as not to appear unnatural to Google. All responses wecomed
