1 Domain - 2 Links Pointing to 2 Different Pages
-
Hi Guys,
I wonder if you can give me any pointers:
We have an exact match domain name that is ranking #5 for our main keyword and is getting some good traffic through the site.
We have just created a landing page for another keyword with fresh content that will be updated every week.
The question is, I've been building links to my domain name and I'm just wondering if we built another link from 1 of the sites we already have a link on and point it to this new landing page would this help it rank better or not?
Hope the above makes sense.
Thanks,
Scott

It wouldn't hurt to have a link going to that page from the same domain, this is called deep linking by linking to a page that is not your homepage. Although once you have a link from a domain you should find other domains to build links from. I only really measure the value of unique referring domains as I believe Google only values a certain number of incoming links from a domain before devaluing the rest (think blogroll links or footer links).
Having the link to your new page on the same site won't give you the biggest impact. Ideally you want to find new sites to build deep links too. Diversify your link profile!

Does the number of people who click on a link to your site from another domain influence your domain authority?
Say you have a link to your site on the BBC, is it the fact that you're being linked to from a domain of very high authority that boost your own domain authority or is it dependent on how many people actually click on your link from that site? Any insights much appreciated!

Is there a software to help me check whether the sites that i give link to, also place my link on their site (reciprocal link)?
When i exchange links with others, i usually put their link on my site hoping that they'll do the same. Since it's impossible to check all sites whose link i have placed on my page to see if they have put a link back to me, i was wondering whether there is a kind of software to help me do that!

What % Page Metrics & Social, What % Links?
It seems that a lot of the focus of SEOs, especially whitehat SEOs like SEOMoz and Distilled has shifted a lot more towards improving page metrics (bounce, return rate, etc) and social metrics. I'm curious - And of course, I'm just asking for guesses - But what percent of ranking do you think is page metrics, social metrics and other non-link based metrics and what percent do you think are link based metrics?

Minimum desired for Domain Authority and Page Authority
I see messages and threads talking about the less importance on PageRank and more importance on Domain Authority and Page Authority. As I work on our link building, do I steer away from low DA and PA websites? If so, whats the minimum threshold I should stay away from? If I see a site that has a Domain Authority as low as 9 - is that the minimum? What is? What do you think?
