How do I get a link in my blog bio signature on my Youmoz posts?
-
I've done several Youmoz posts and only recently noticed for some reason that other authors have included author links and links to their websites in their bio section at the end.
I edited mine with a full URL but it only shows up as text. No editor there when you edit your profile so no way of adding a link. Anyone know how this is done?
-
I am doing the http:// and including the full URL. Should I add the link code? I didn't realize that was an HTML editor.
** Yes, you need to add the html code: full: text .
That will work for sure.

Thanks, I put the link code in the bio and emailed Jen. I'll wait a while and check my youmoz stuff next week and see if I got it right this time

Actually, please email editor@seomoz.org. I am the primary person who manages YouMoz, but there are actually several of us who current work on YouMoz and this will ensure that the entire team sees the request.

You should email Jen Lopez who manages YouMoz. You need to include the HTML for the link in your bio on your profile page. If you change your Bio now, I don't think it would change your by line on past blog posts. The SEOMoz team should be able to help you.

Hi Dan (and anyone else with the same question),
You can put html code in your blog bio section of your profile. When you make new posts, the html will show up in the post, even though in your profile it doesn't show. We do ask that these links not be abused.
For existing posts, we need to re-save the post so that it grabs the blog bio information again, and then it will show up. Send an email to editor@seomoz.org and we can take care of that for you next week.

And treadmill review guru is my friend who asked for help with his site. As far as I know it's just him, but if that changes I will adjust the signature accordingly
-
By full url you mean http:// ... or a href html code ?
By the way you should edit the signature from friend to friends.. unless you are helping only one of your friends with treadmillreviewguru

How important are Internal Equity-Passing Links in rankings?
Hi,I ran opensite explorer of a customer site: www.enviosadomicilio.com and compared it with the most ranked competence sites. In almost all the factor enviosadomicilio.com has the best scores, except in Internal Equity-Passing Links. The competence has aprox 20K Equity links and another 2K meanwhile enviosadomicilio.com only have 296. Do you think that factor could be the reason that enviosadomicilio.com are in ranking 15th while the competence in 1st and 3rd?. How could we get Internal-Passing Links?, we don´t have a lot of products or categories in the site. Thanks a lot.

How do I see all links to my site in Web Explore?
It appears that the Web Explore looks for exact matches to a page. I'd like to see all matches to any page. Will regular expressions work?

How to get organized for Freelance SEO
Hi there, I'm fairly new to SEO but have learned a substantial amount in the last 8 months or so. I currently run my own web design company but want to add a new SEO service to the list. My question to you all is this... How do other SEO'ers organise their week for clients with SEO needs? Do you dedicate a day per client, divide your day up into hourly segments per client? What i'm looking for is a rough guide as to how I should get organized for the new service that I want to provide. How do you monitor what you have been doing with a client? There are sooo many questions that I want to ask, ut feel I may end up driving people crazy. Any help/advice will be welcomed with open arms!! Many thanks.. Alex

Canonical link on canonical url
This might seem a bit of an odd one, but we seem to be going around in circles on this when using the on page optimizer tool. We have an ecommerce site (magento) which by default is putting a canonical link in the header on every product page. For example; www.example.com/product1.html has the But when we run the on page optimiser tool, we're losing points on the critical section for not having canonical set correctly. If we remove the tag, we get the tick and the a grade, but then further down the report we lose a tick for not using canonical links. What are we missing here?

No Local Directory links in Open Site Explorer?
Hi there, I just signed up for seomoz pro today and have been playing around in OSE looking at a number of local business websites that I manage SEO for. For all of them, I have put an endless amount of effort ensuring they have good quality, accurate business listings in all the local directories like yelp, yellowpages, hotfrog, tripadvisor, etc. For most of them, I did this months or even up to a year ago. However, I don't see a single link reported in OSE that is a result of my efforts here. Does OSE not report links from local business directories, or should I be concerned that I'm somehow not optimizing properly, or are these types of links of such little value that they don't get picked up, something else? Thanks for the help!
