Should I optimize/link build all my pages at once?
-
I'm currently starting to optimize about 30 area specific pages for a property maintenance company and was wondering, what's the best way to link build multiple pages at once?
Should I link build for all of the 30 the pages at once, or maybe focus on 5 individual pages - get them ranking well, then focus on the next 5 and so on?

If you know now that you will optimize 30 pages then make your plan now. Determine which pages will focus which key words or phrases. This will help you avoid cannibalization within your own site. You can also start now with building anchor links between each page as you optimize them.
As you build links or otherwise improve your first few pages, you may encounter an opportunity for another page. You can then either take notes so you can easily backtrack later, or you can stretch and include the extra page while it is convenient. An example is you may have a site which sells insurance. You might contact an auto dealer and obtain a link on their site referring car buyers to your site. At the same time perhaps you might think about the health or life insurance needs of the car dealer's employees and find an opportunity there as well.
One last thought. Once you feel your first 5 pages are optimized, I would not recommend waiting for them to rank well. Go ahead and jump into the next 5. It takes time for SEO to work. There is no benefit to waiting. Get started now.

As link building is a very long process i suggest you do a perfect on-page SEO so each page targets specific keywords and what ever opportunity arises to get good juicy links to your website no matter the page just do it as even if you target lower pages for links your home page still gets some juice from it.
Hope it helps.

Are PR releases good for Link Building?
I'm having a bit of a conundrum with Press Releases: I recently sent a press release on PRWeb (which I personally think is just "average" compared to others as it focuses mainly on the CBS network and is not focused at all unless you pay for an expensive release) and got over 100 incoming links from high PR news sites (according to Webmaster Tools) but these links had PRWeb in subtitle, so for all I know these were syndicated releases and not "Pick up By" as PRWeb reports. Will this affect Page Rank value or rankings for any keywords? Are these links treated only as temporary links or permanent back links? (I know sometimes they appear in Google News or Yahoo News, but disappear the next day) Was it valuable to the company? Our business is in health sector exclusively on East Coast U.S. and the release was seen all over the world and not one of the links coming back was from a health-related section. They were high rank online sites, but is there value in such links? added 11/30: I was reviewing competitors' link backs I found they did a lot of press releases and gained a high-level link back from each one. These were the best/highest-authority links they had. The syndicated releases were not even listed anywhere. And then I reviewed their SERPs... and guess what, their ranks increased with each one. (So I don't think "duplication" is an issue. If anything only the syndicated copies were penalized, but not the original one)

Good link building companies
I'm wondering if anyone has had good experiences with any of the link building companies out there. I'm really looking to hear about those companies who go beyond the mundane forum links, blog commenting, bulk directory submission, article directories etc. It's all been done to death. I've used webuildpages.com, they are pricey, but are good at getting high quailty links.
