Link Building for a website with 170 K Pages
-
My website is having around 170 K webpages and every web page is meant for individual keyword. e.g. keyword for every page is height of a movie star.
What should be my link building strategy
-
Should I link other sites to index page of my website (if yes then what should be the anchor text) ?
-
Should I link other websites to individual web pages of my website.

What is a brand anchor text?

Hi, I would first look at your internal link structure of the website to make sure you have the best appropriate pages linking to specific keywords. You would want to target the most competitive terms via this.
Once this is complete I would then move onto high quality link building for the website as said above I would then focus on utilizing varied anchor text and brand terms.

I had a similar ish issue with an ecommerce store of my own. It has 90,000 products on and I was spending far too long targeting individual product names. It proved to be a false economy to me; while it was good to rank no1 for the actual product name, the number of people who search Google for exact product names was tiny. As A result I have now dropped this approach and I'm targeting more generic keywords such as 'black dress' 'red tights'
Try and target a few dozen broader keywords which bring in many more searches. If you build up your domain authority enough then the individual pages will rank of their own accord (depending on your site quality and the competition, of course)
-
If you are starting out, I would use brand anchor text to my homepage and build up domain authority first
I would not use exact match anchor text tod epe pages in my site from spammy domains (anything less than PR2, DA less than 30 or having less than 100 unique domains linking to it)

Do affiliate links to Amazon product pages boost those pages in the SERPs?
From casual observation, I believe that affiliate links to Amazon product pages, move those Amazon pages up in the SERPs. Does anyone else have an opinion on this? Philosophically, I think that affiliate links should not be counted in the rankings, even if they have not been nofollowed. I think that Google and other search engines should be filtering these links because they are compensated. Thanks for your thoughts.

Link building external trusted help out there?
Hi there guys and Girls, I am a newbie to the seo world but learning quickly. Unhappy with seo services offered for startups I have taken on the role myself for my website. I think so much of what can be learnt online here I can implement myself with a few hours of work each week. So my dilemma! I have lots of ideas of for content which i know will be valuable and I was considering outsourcing just for link building (the long haul work) The trouble is I am wary of who to use and if such service is out there? I have tried searching on o'desk and freelancer etc but I guess i am too frightened of spammy links or postings on irrelevant sites. I guess initially I am looking for someone who can help my link building campaign whilst I build up my own blogging contacts etc. Does anyone know if these types of services exist? and if any are recommended for small companies? Thanks Michelle

Links to commercial pages vs resources.
My company has a number of resources pages that are garnering links from external sources. It won't be long before these links outnumber the breadth and the quality of links to my homepage and commercial pages. Does having a lot more links to the resources pages risk unbalancing flow of PageRank around the site? What I want to avoid is a situation where my homepage has a lower PR than my blog/resources, or people searching for relevant terms getting directed to my blog/resources (with many high-quality links) than to my commercial pages (which will have fewer).
