I’m a bit confused about link building strategies and implementation of high DA links and why it’s best to get links from well established websites yet I see competition profiles full of what looks to be spammy links, paid blog list etc, am I right in thinking it’s best to have more dofollow than no follow and what’s the significance of the ratio of number of referring domains to number of backlinks why do only some show up on different tools used?

@Ranilulu we are a B2B ecommerce company too. I feel we should focus more on technical seo and real content. Something your customers will read over and over again. It takes real experience (technical) and time to write such content however I feel even one quality article like this which truly helps customers in your market will go a long ways in increasing your visibility organically. We do this too. Sam from <a href="https://www.ucanpack.com/">Ucanpack</a>

@Tom-Capper What would be your approach if you have a site on a brand new domain like https://coinlabz.com/ ? I believe we publish good and linkable content, but since the site metrics are low, it will be harder to acquire links naturally.
What would you recommend?

Hey there!
Your backlink strategy can involve a variety of tactics, such as creating high-quality content that other websites will want to link to, reaching out to other website owners and asking for links, or participating in link building campaidgns or exchanges.
It's important to note that not all backlinks are created equal, and having a high number of low-quality links can actually harm your website's SEO. Therefore, it's important to focus on acquiring relevant, high-quality backlinks from reputable websites.
I wouldn't know what your strategy should be as I don't know what your final goals are. Though here you can find some actional steps that are included in almost every link-building strategy:
Creating high-quality content: One of the best ways to acquire backlinks is by creating valuable and informative content that other websites will want to link to. This can include things like in-depth research articles, informative blog posts, infographics, and videos.
Guest blogging: Another way to acquire backlinks is by guest blogging on other websites in your industry. This is a great way to get your content in front of a new audience and to establish yourself as a thought leader in your industry. When you guest blog, you can typically include a link back to your own website in your author bio or in the body of the post.
Broken link building: This strategy involves identifying broken links on other websites in your industry, and then reaching out to the website owner to let them know about the broken link and suggesting a replacement link to one of your own pages.
Direct Outreach: Reach out to website owners, editors, and other relevant contacts, and ask them to link to your content.
One thing to remember is that link-building is not an easy task, it requires time, effort and a well-thought strategy. It's a long-term strategy, and the results may take some time to appear. So don't give up if you don't see immediate results, it's just not how things work in this business.

Sorry for the slow reply.
You can definitely obtain relevant traffic from sites like these, but links are likely to be nofollow.

@haris313 said in Backlinking Strategy:
What should be my link-building strategy?
Link building is the process of acquiring links from other websites to your own website, with the goal of improving your search engine rankings and driving traffic to your site. However, it's important to note that not all links are created equal, and the quality of the links you acquire can have a significant impact on your website's performance.
Using a tool like https://rush-analytics.com/land/backlinks-spam can be helpful for identifying and analyzing links to your website, but it's important to use this tool as part of a comprehensive link-building strategy, rather than relying on it as the sole source of information.
Here are a few strategies you might consider as part of a link-building campaign:
Publish high-quality, informative content that other websites will want to link to.
Reach out to other websites and ask for links, but be sure to provide value in return (such as linking to their content from your own site).
Participate in relevant online communities and forums, and provide valuable insights and resources that others will want to link to.
Use social media to promote your content and encourage others to share your links.
Monitor your backlinks using the tool and actively work to remove any spammy or low-quality links pointing to your website.
It's important to approach link building with a long-term perspective, as it can take time and effort to build a strong, diverse link profile. However, by following best practices and focusing on creating high-quality content and relationships, you can develop a link-building strategy that will help drive traffic and improve your website's search engine performance.

Does anyone can share some backlink strategy for an e-commerce website? We are an e-commerce company with the brand name VANCARO. We just start the link buidling recently.

@Tom-Capper
I have read your advice.
I take this opportunity to consult you:
Do you think that sites like reedit, quora or forums like that can send some relevant traffic to blogs in Spanish?
A few months ago I started https://mundocm.net/telefonos-servicio-al-cliente-falabella/ and I'm having a hard time finding relevant sites to ask for a link.
Sometimes, what is more difficult is to find relevant sites from the country where the blog's theme is aimed.
If you have any suggestions, it would be appreciated. -
It's certainly possible to attain a DA 30. My recommendation is find similar sites in your niche that have at/around DA 30 and dig into their backlink profile, see how many backlinks and what number DA's associated. After you've done your research, come up with a strategy similar to that. It's the exact method I'm using for a domain like: [https://ruffrug.com](link url)
-
@irau creating longer form articles with illustrations or graphics is a really good suggestion. Thank you so much for it. I'll have to manage it by myself one way or the other until I build a good reliable team of my own.
-
@Tom-Capper Thank you so much for your time. I'll start working on some good shareable resources right away!!
-
@haris313 Certain backlinks can shoot your DA right up to 45, which a solid score, but doesn't guarantee valuable traffic by any means.
I recommend creating longer form articles with illustrations or graphics to make reading them more dynamic.
This can be very time consuming for just one person, so it helps to have another team member assisting with developing topics, proof reading and helping with graphics.
-
In some ways, aiming for a specific DA is probably not the right approach. DA is a useful metrc for predicting how well a site might rank against another, all things being equal, but there's a lot of nuance to what might help you succeed for a given query.
That said, for newer sites, some links are certainly helpful. There's no one way to go about it.
I'd suggest for a new blog, start by producing some resources you feel others might find useful, entertaining, or otherwise remarkable. Then, find ways to get these in front of people who might consider linking to you from their own sites - perhaps share the resources with your social media followers, email journalists from relevant publications, or engage with platforms like Reddit or forums.

Understanding Redirects and Canonical Tags in SEO: A Complex Case
Hi everyone, nothing serious here, i'm just playing around doing my experiments 🙂
Technical SEO | | chueneke
but if any1 of you guys understand this chaos and what was the issue here, i'd appreciate if you try to explain it to me. I had a page "Linkaufbau" on my website at https://chriseo.de/linkaufbau. My .htaccess file contains only basic SEO stuff: # removed ".html" using htaccess RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\ (.*)\.html\ HTTP RewriteRule (.*)\.html$ $1 [R=301,L] # internally added .html if necessary RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/$ RewriteRule (.*) $1\.html [L] # removed "index" from directory index pages RewriteRule (.*)/index$ $1/ [R=301,L] # removed trailing "/" if not a directory RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /$ RewriteRule (.*)/ $1 [R=301,L] # Here’s the first redirect: RedirectPermanent /index / My first three questions: Why do I need this rule? Why must this rule be at the top? Why isn't this handled by mod_rewrite? Now to the interesting part: I moved the Linkaufbau page to the SEO folder: https://chriseo.de/seo/linkaufbau and set up the redirect accordingly: RedirectPermanent /linkaufbau /seo/linkaufbau.html I deleted the old /linkaufbau page. I requested indexing for /seo/linkaufbau in the Google Search Console. Once the page was indexed, I set a canonical to the old URL: <link rel="canonical" href="https://chriseo.de/linkaufbau"> Then I resubmitted the sitemap and requested indexing for /seo/linkaufbau again, even though it was already indexed. Due to the canonical tag, the page quickly disappeared. I then requested indexing for /linkaufbau and /linkaufbau.html in GSC (the old, deleted page). After two days, both URLs were back in the serps:: https://chriseo.de/linkaufbau https://chriseo.de/linkaufbau.html this is the new page /seo/linkaufbau
b14ee095-5c03-40d5-b7fc-57d47cf66e3b-grafik.png This is the old page /linkaufbau
242d5bfd-af7c-4bed-9887-c12a29837d77-grafik.png Both URLs are now in the search results and all rankings are significantly better than before for keywords like: organic linkbuilding linkaufbau kosten linkaufbau service natürlicher linkaufbau hochwertiger linkaufbau organische backlinks linkaufbau strategie linkaufbau agentur Interestingly, both URLs (with and without .html) redirect to the new URL https://chriseo.de/seo/linkaufbau, which in turn has a canonical pointing to https://chriseo.de/linkaufbau (without .html). In the SERPs, when https://chriseo.de/linkaufbau is shown, my new, updated snippet is displayed. When /linkaufbau.html is shown, it displays the old, deleted page that had already disappeared from the index. I have now removed the canonical tag. I don't fully understand the process of what happened and why. If anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful. Best regards,

slug Link redirect to subdomain?
Hi !
Link Building | | Leviiii
Im Levi new here and new in the world of SEO, please dont judge if my questions are silly. Back on the days when the site was built we thought it is a good ideea to have subdomains that together with the domain name represent our main keywords.
ex. https://stansted.tonorwich.uk, https://heathrow.tonorwich.uk, https://luton.tonorwich.uk, https://gatwick.tonorwich.uk. There is content on this subdomains, would it make any difference from SEO perspective if we create slugs that redirect to these subdomains? for example creating https://tonorwich.uk/taxi-minibus-vip-tesla-norwich-to-stansted that redirects to https://stansted.tonorwich.uk ? Or better create these slugs with slightly different content?
Any ideeas would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!0 -
SEO question about lots of outbound links
I'm considering adding a directory page to one of my websites that lists local groups from all around the world. I haven't kept up with SEO in a long time, but I recall (many) years ago that having a lot of outgoing links and very few (if any) inbound connections was a terrible thing. Is this still the case, or have search engine algorithms figured out that this can be beneficial to site visitors? What effect will adding a page like this have on my SEO?

Handmadearea.com - anyone know what this is? Bizarre backlinks!
I have noticed just this week a lot of new backlinks from a site called handmadearea.com - for example http://handmadearea.com/url/hp-printer-software-zpe-center/. It looks like the site is somehow stripping my content structure and inserting spam where my content goes. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Should I be worried about it? The backlinks are not showing in Google Webmaster Tools so I can't easily disavow them at this point. Are they likely to be doing me harm? What can I do about them?

2 backlinking questions
I've got 2 questions regarding backlinking. 1 - I recently watched a webinar saying I should never get backlinks from any sites lower than a PR 3. However, I have found some relevant websites to our niche that are lower than that. We have recently set-up a new website that currently has a PR 0. Bearing that in mind do you think it was still be good for SEO to try and get links from the lower PR sites to build up our own PR? 2 - Has anyone found out what Google thinks of gaining links from domains hosted in other countries? For example, our websites are hosted in the UK, does it look suspicious to search engines if we have links from USA or other countries? Thanks

Can bad backlinks harm your website?
Hi, This has been discussed to death over the web on many forums, some discussions are even very heated arguing both sides. So... from what I have read on seomoz the answer to this question is... YES. And if one was so inclined to build bad backlinks to a competitor it would have a negative effect. Agree?

Concerned about quality of backlinks - should I take action?
I regularly work on websites to which previous SEOs have built questionable backlinks. This morning I've just been analysing some backlinks - found 40 odd were coming from 20 odd websites which all had the same gentleman as personal registrant, who happens to be the boss of an SEO company. The SEO company name is mentioned in registrant details too, and often on the websites in question (including weblinks from some of these 20 odd websites to the SEO company). I did note the IP addresses / hosting for these websites did vary though, as did the postal address of the individual in question, perhaps throwing Google off the scent a bit. I should add that these websites are virtually all tourism related/themed, with up to a few dozen backlinks per page - usually articles. It's very clear they are backlinking to keyphrases. Now, this kinda thing<a></a> sets the alarm bells ringing. Firstly, this looks like an infringement of Google Webmaster Guidelines. Secondly, it doesn't sound like a White Hat technique for building links! Am I correct? I guess it might be denied they are partner pages due to the quality of content, perhaps, which isn't as spammy as it might've been. However, I suggest these are at least paid links because there is no other clear way of getting content on these pages, as far as I can see.<a></a><a></a> Should I demand these backlinks are taken down? What level of risk is posed do you think? I don't want this website to suffer a Google penalty at some point, particularly not after I've started work on it. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
