Making sure links get indexed by google?
-
Hi I currently submitted to 30 seo directories & I just want to make sure my links get indexed by google so the link value passes onto my site.
Any suggestions about getting my links indexed?
I was thinking of either pinging or social book marketing the links!
What's your view, thanks.

will do cheers, & ye pretty new to directories submission anyway. I don't want to just submit to 100's of directories.

Just tell Google. Go to Google Webmaster Tools and submit a sitemap. Works for me everytime. 30 SEO directories? Sounds like you're a little new to SEO. Don't worry, Google will get around to indexing it.

Hah good idea think I'll have a beer & not worry too much about it, cheers

Any suggestions about getting my links indexed?
I would go have a beer or an anti-anxiety pill and forget about them.

hummm interesting, I just wanted to be double safe my work gets rewarded seems as I went to the effort of submitting my site.
So basically if Google don't index the links they were no good to me in the first place? OR on the opposite side if I make sure google index them they are potentially crappy links?
-
Part of me wants to say, "If Google can't find the link on it's own, then you don't need the link."
The other part wants to say, "BookmarkingDemon is great for helping Google find your links."
One answer is better when writing a blog post about ethical SEO. The other, a realistic way to get 'garbage' links indexed (even if they still won't be worth much).

Relaunching a site that has had thousands of posts linking to the same 20 articles. How to properly setup internal linking?
I'm in the process of relaunching a music news site (www.prefixmag.com) that once did quite well in search (over a million monthly search visits in its prime). The site got crushed by Panda, etc. and we stopped updating it. I'm starting to do more research but one thing that I noticed was we have modules in the right rail (desktop) that are found on all of our article pages that point to the same posts. (Edit: Added attachment. The links in the right rail under Editor Picks, Features, News, Media, etc. are found on every page of the site). In other words, we have thousands of posts that all link to the same 20 or so articles. Should we not do this if we're not trying to emphasize these posts in Google? Assuming this is the case, what is the proper way to do internal linking? Do we simply setup a sitemap and link to it? I'm hoping to have the thousands of articles we've published over the years have a chance to rank in search again. Also, we have a number of posts that are thin in content should those pages not be submitted in the sitemap? Thanks in advance! 2KmX0

Inbound Links not showing. Links are not no follow
Over the past several months I have definitely received inbound links to my website ( none of which are no follow). I have HubSpot as well s Moz and none of the links are showing. My competitors with the same link sources are showing though. I am completely dumbfounded. Why are my inbound links not showing and how much time does it take for them to show if they show at all? Thank you!

There is a website that OSE has identified with a spam score of 5, it back links to me with a very specific key word. How important is it to have them remove those links?

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.

Get Lots of links quickly?
Hey everyone, I have some questions about links. First off, I only do things that are very white hat, so I don't want to do any sort of spammy or paid links. I have been doing SEO for a year and a half and have been researching and following SEOmoz for that amount of time as well. I still am having a hard time getting links. I have a low budget and am not sure what to do. I have two pro webinars in mind as some background for my questions. First of all, the webinar Rand did on link building during the summer was great and really motivated me - http://www.seomoz.org/webinars/future-of-link-building. I realized that there were things we could do to get links, but that they would just take time. Secondly, in Dr.Pete's recent webinar on the future of SEO, (http://www.seomoz.org/webinars/future-proofing-your-seo-2012-edition) he threw out a number like 10 as far as referring to how many links someone could get per day. Maybe I misunderstood but this seems crazy to me. I've tried the tactic of emailing for links, no dice (they were personalized emails and done properly). I am now planning on moving towards producing great content to draw in links, but the kind that would work would take a lot more time and money than what I am allotted. I feel a little overwhelmed and concerned. I would appreciate any insights. Thanks! Holly
