Is it worth it to get links from my suppliers?
-
Hi, I run a Lawyer lead gen site.
I could get links from like my bookkeeper and accountant but is it relevant?
Let me know what you think.

To the point Egol
I am not sure how google see the relevance, but getting a link from a relevant business that is not in the business of giving out links is a good link.

_Let's be nice here folks, it's an obvious honest question. _
To answer your question Raf:
It depends on your goal Raf. If you're into building quality backlinks, I don't think it's a good idea. I believe Google has mentioned several times about getting easy links will get you penalized at some point in time. However, if you're into branding and getting quality traffic, me thinks it's ok. Perhaps getting penalized by Google is not as bad as it is when you get good amount of interested visitors from their site?
In addition, I don't think you should focus on building backlinks for SEO Raf. Have you read about the latest Google algorythm update for SEO? I bet you already did. It mentioned about quality content as the main factor of SEO and building backlinks will no longer guarantee positive results in search ranking, right?
Let me show you an example:
- Go to google.com.ae
- Search advertising UAE
- Or Search Marketing UAE
- You will notice there are 22 - 25 million search results (competition is high)
- Look for Innovate Advertising & Marketing on first page
- Analyze the site "http://www.ibs-uae.com/" and you'll notice it doesn't have many backlinks
Hope this helps.

If I was your accountant, I would kick you out.

Hi there
To me, this doesn't seem natural - I don't know too many bookkeepers or accountants that mention who they work with. I would consider that information private, and there may even be some legalities (I am not sure though).
If for some reason you go through with this, I would be extremely careful doing so and not go overboard because it could look spammy and manipulative. I would pay attention to Google's resources on link schemes and utilizing nofollow if need be. I would also make sure your branded link / logo link are nofollowed (don't worry - these links are still valuable), and mentioned in an organic, natural fashion or listed on a Partners-esque page.
Again, this doesn't seem like a natural link and could come across odd, but that's upto you and your team to decide. Just weigh the positives and negatives and use your gut instinct.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

Backlinks, how do you get them?
Recently, I listed our site on a few directory's which I deemed as not spammy and had good domain authority (competitors were using these). This was about 2 weeks ago and have not seen them come up as a backlink using open site explorer? I was wondering whether i'm missing something out here or does it take longer than 2 weeks to gain a backlink from a website? Thanks in advance.

Link Directories
Hi there, We're very shortly launching a new website so as part of our link strategy we will be linking to directories found with the Link Acquisition Assistant for various keyword searches. I was wondering at what point is it not worthwhile submitting to these directories with regards PA and DA? For example if a directory has a domain authority of 69 but the page authority for the keyword in question is only 1, would it be a waste of time? Cheers

"Diverse" Links from same IP address worth the work?
Hi folks, This is my first posting, so please be nice with me 🙂 I have completed an all-new website (www.buy-hosting.net) , however the domain is bought and already exists since 2 years, but has no inbound links though. Now I start building links. I have some clients of my web design business, I could bring in links to my new site on their sites from different domains, some established and years old. However, they all are hosted at the same IP address. Is it a good idea for link diversity to post links on their site to my new one? I remember a thing, that only 1 link will be counted, originating from the same IP address. Is this worth the work of asking clients, posting links, etc.? Or is it even dangerous to my new site? Also, any other ideas about how to start link building are welcome. Is there a comprahensive list, something like a "startes guide with practical ideas" to link building? Thank you and kind regards
