Manual Blog Submission Services - Any Recommendations ?
-
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could recommend a high quality blog directory submission service ?
I know that the best method is to do this yourself - but the time required to do so is enourmous, so although I may manually submit to a few of the very best directories myself, I'm looking for a good quality manual service to do the rest.
I'm willing to pay a decent amount to a quality submission service as I want it done as near as possible to doing it myself.
Thanks for your thoughts.

Thanks - They do look pretty dubious - I will have a scout around.

I guess the problem is that when you start to use a service you can't be sure of the quality. There are definitely services out there but they tend to be less than trasparent on the blog directories that you will be submitted to!

If you are going to do it I would suggest you locate and submit manually.

Well I sort of agree - (and would have totally agreed) - HOWEVER - I think it depends on how low you go - I think there are actually far more than a handful that are worth submitting to.
The reason I think this is through experience on submission to directories I have done (very recently) before. I manually submitted a website to probably 100 paid directories (ones with decent DA) a few months ago, and just that alone was enough to push up ranking very significantly in a very competitive market.
Now I want to target the blog, so I need to look at directories specific to blogs - but the thought of manually having to submit to a hundred odd directories again gives me thoughts of dread - so I'm looking for a decent service to do it for me.
Thanks

I am with Peter on this one. The quality of the links will probably be pretty low in the eyes of Mr Google and i think your time could be spent better elsewhere.

I think theres only a few worth submitting too.. After that they just become increasingly low quality and spammy...so not sure I would bother!

Moving blogs to different domain
Hey guys, We currently have some blogs on one of our pages (fraserisland.com.au) and we are launching a complete rebranding of our sites. We want to move the blogs from fraserisland.com.au to the new parent page of travelfreedom.com.au (but still link it to fraserisland.com.au), however I don't know what affect this will have on the ranking of the blogs. The biggest thing I'm worried about is that the domain will be completely different, and not a sub domain, but I'm not sure what impact this will have on the effectiveness of SEO on the blog. Thanks guys

Guest blogging for the gaming industry
Guest blogging seems to be one of the few legit linking methods left these days. My problem is that I work for a company in the gaming industry niche. All of the blogs directly connected are either spam, competitors or affiliates. I have been doing some guest blogging with connected articles on non-related blogs such as "financial advice if you win big" or a recent news story for a general blog. However, these sites are not connected and I cannot get the more quality general sites interested in these topics. Any advice for me?

Newspapers are mentioning our service without links
Hi All Hope you are well. I am getting mentioned in a few newspapers online and they will put a link to our website without the anchor tag. Now I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and if so, how/did you approach the author about getting a link back? Any other suggestions on getting links from such places would be extremely valuable as well. Thanks in advance Jeff

So I wondered if anyone had been experimenting with commenting on blogs which had no follow attributes and if there was any benefit in terms of improving your rankings?

Should we focus on Directory Submissions
When reviewing our competitors links in Open Site Explorer I noticed that many of them have directory links. We are an online retailer of gourmet food gifts. So should we focus some of our link building efforts on directory submissions?

Would you approve this blog comment?
I just got an unusual comment on one of my blog posts on our real estate site. The article was about a particular street that is getting renamed after a historical figure. The comment is seven paragraphs of information about this person. The comment is an obvious attempt to get a backlink in my opinion. The site that it is linking back to is an architect's site. So, this is probably the work of an SEO. I've searched and can't find duplicate content online. I thought perhaps it was from wikipedia but there is no entry on this person and I've searched several phrases from the comment and it doesn't appear to be duplicated. So, would you approve it? My gut instinct is "yes" because it would add to the content on my site...but there's this little thing in the back of my head that is saying "Don't do it!!!!" EDIT: I just checked and the architect's site has 3 backlinks, none of which are blog comments. So, perhaps it is legit. Maybe someone is just fanatical about this historical figure. EDIT AGAIN: Very cool. I just checked their about page and the owner of the business has the same last name as the historical figure. OK. I'll stop being super paranoid now. LOL!
