Weebly, Blogger, Wordpress and tumblr?
-
What do people think about links from free hosted sites like weenly, Wordpress, blogger and tumblr? I see that they are do follow but how is there link juice? Are they beneficial to a link profile?
-
I personally use Tumblr quite heavily to promote my photography aransphotography.tumblr.com, not so much for link building but there is a huge amount of traffic flowing through that site and its great to divert some of that traffic to my flickr or my own website.
Also, if people chose to re-blog my stuff then I get some free links as a bonus, link juice or not!
In short my tumblr is part of my social outreach and inbound marketing strategy rather than my link development plans.
I do not use wordpress, blogger or Weebly personally, but I do have links on other peoples blogs from there that do me no harm!

Is blogger outreach dead?
Hi All, I am a fairly new user of Moz Pro and so far so good! However, after identifying that my link metrics and domain authority have dropped behind my competitors I've started trying to acquire links quite aggressively. I'm currently finding bloggers on Socialix to write about my Firewood business in the UK and currently doing about 5 posts per week. However many are insisting upon including upon a disclaimer (e.g. "sponsored by Firewood Centre") and I had a few questions about best practices. Are the disclaimer rules different in the UK vs the US? There seems to be stricter policy in the US. In some cases I am providing free product, does this still mean that bloggers should include a disclaimer? The idea was to get original photography and proof of concept for the post. Is the non-follow link worthless? Again, another point argued by the bloggers. Is blogger outreach dead? Should I focus my efforts elsewhere? Please share your best link acquisition tips here! Thanks.

I am getting links on people's wordpress blogs but are not showing up on the just discovered tool. Is it true that wordpress links are no-follow links that do give off any link-juice?
A blogger told me that "wordpress.com does not allow blogs to show advertisements or use links to sites that sell merchandise of any kind" is this true? Am i wasting my outreach time trying to get links from wordpress operated blogs?

Need feedback: Should we move our blog from blogger to our e-commerce site?
Hi, I write the blog for an e-commerce site that sells swimwear www.allwetbeachwear.com. The blog is currently a blogger blog that lives off the domain. I have always thought that having a blogger blog for the site looked unprofessional yet might be good for SEO since google owns blogger. However recently we are making SEO improvements and want to create more internal links to keep up with our competitors. I am thinking an on-site blog might be good for SEO. What do you recommend for the best SEO results for our site? -keeping on blog hosted on blogger -creating a new blog on our e-commerce platform -hosting the blogger blog on a subdomain of our ecommerce site Thanks!

How can I optimize the Wordpress "read more" link?
What is the correct way to work with “read more” links in Wordpress? I have a Wordpress blog where I use in each post a read more link (posts with long content), in other words, in the home page each post has two links to the full post, this is good for the usability of my blog. I show actually 10 posts on the home page, this results in 10 links of post title and 10 links of read more = 20 links. I have 10 repeated links on the home page. My read more links have customized text, links to the permalink without #more, links dofollow. In this way that I’m using read more links, Am I diluting the link juice of my blog? Is it correct to use nofollow in internal links trying to manipulate the link juice of my site?

Bloggers "no_follow"
Hi Guy's, We have been sending bloggers products to review and in return we ask for a link back to our website to the relevant product. As I now understand it, Google is no longer giving this any weight & bloggers are being advised to use the "no follow" tag. So have I understood the new rules correctly? If so is it worth us continuing to send bloggers products to review? Thanks Daniel
