Need a Service to get back links- info on Youtube PR Ranking
-
I have about 4000 you tube video urls that I need someone to submit for comment links, and profile links, and other links above pr2 and above. (will consider lower pr too). The ones I see when searching, don't seem to be able to understand how to use their submitters.
Yes I know PR most likely will not be passed, but at least the vid will rank better with higher pr. My pr4 vids do.
It seems to be that you tube vids are easier to gain pr. When I do a link search for pr5 vid urls, it doesn't seem to return links that justify the PR, so any info on that is appreciated.
Any comments about how I should not do this or any form of this will not be appreciated. Thanks

Hey Joe,
So, as you correctly identify, the YouTube algorithm does appear to be somewhat less sophisticated than the main Google algorithm in terms of spam detection and often times, if you buy loads of links to your videos - you can get them ranking well.
Ultimately, I don't think it really matters where you go to buy these links. The PageRank of those links also wont matter a great deal. At such a scale, one low quality link comment spam link will be more or less as good as another and you're clearly taking the risk in knowledge of a potential penalty. So, i'm afraid I can't recommend you any companies to do this, but hopefully I can give you some other tips which would help with your YouTube optimisation and may help mitigate against some of the risks you will be taking.
- Hotspots
After running numerous tests, we've discovered that the viewing metrics of your videos make a huge different to their ability to rank. YouTube hotspots (see here for details - http://www.distilled.net/blog/social-media/youtube/youtube-insight-film-critic-reviews-for-your-video-now-included/) give a really comprehensive overview of how individuals behave when watching your video and if you can find a way to scale improving the responses here - it should really improve rankings.
- Quantity
4000 videos is an awful lot. Given the scale, I imagine that they're extremely low quality, or duplicate content targeting different keywords. I would really recommend that you consider reducing the quantity here, as the more you scale this process, the easier it is going to be for Google to pick up and then give you a spamming penalty.
- Channel
Whatever you do, don't buy tons of low quality links out to 4000 videos coming off the same channel - this will set off alarms very quickly and sooner or later, the channel will be devalued.
Hope that's helpful - but please do be aware of the risk you're taking here! I fully expect your videos to get a penalty if you buy links to all 4000. You may get away with it for a bit, but please carefully consider whether the cost will really be worth the results.
Cheers,
Phil

Better ranking competitors have paid links from blog pages
I have a trial of all the tools at the moment and it's a lot of fun. I have been delving into site explorer and found that some competitors have links to them from obvious seo promoting paid blog sites. One has no other links except a paid for blog from a site that openly admits it offers paid marketing and they shot up to 4th on page one for a main keyword phrase. The info from moz and matt cuts video's say not to do this, but it's so tempting. The blog is well written, while I sit here and do the right thing, my competitors have page one. If the blog is well written and is meaningful is it OK and if google ever decide it's paid and don't like it, wouldn't it be better to be page one for 6 months and then recover? I'd love to give the link to the seo, blogger thingy but don't want to come across as promoting it in any way. I am sure there are loads of them anyway.

What are some of the worst links that you have come across?
I'm talking the least relevant and incredibly spammy. We've all done site audits and stumbled across some ridiculous ones. The funnier the better. I'm compiling a list of hilarious links that sites have gotten. Any input would be great!

Spammy Links (from .ru) pointing to my domain! How to deal with it?
Hi all, We run an e-commerce store - I am just looking at the apache logs and I am finding a lot of spammy links that have been referrers to our pages - when I check the links, I cannot find our URL in an HREF on their page so I presume they may be using some country based cloaking? These are the domains that are targeting specific pages on our site:

Ranking in Multiple Geographic Locations
Hey Mozers, We are a Joomla Web Design firm located in Milwaukee Wisconsin, however, we serve clients all over the midwest (and US) (chicago, madison, minneapolis, etc) I'm curious what the best strategy for ranking in these new geographic areas? Originally I was thinking of creating geographic specific landing pages for each area, however, i'm scared it will hurt us with Google's recent penguin and panda 3.5 updates. Also, won't i need to link to these landing pages from our main website to get them indexed? What about creating mini websites on subdomains: (example) Chicago.SavvyPanda.com?? What are your ideas? Do you have clients who have successfully started ranking in multiple geographic cities/areas?

Getting Credit for your own inbound links
Good afternoon, I have been comparing competitors with the Open Site Explorer looking at their inbound links. I have noticed that they have been getting credit for their own inbound links within their site. Is there something I am doing wrong as inbound links on my site aren't getting found? Could this have anything to do with Webmaster tools? Thanks in advance, SEO_123
