Is it a good idea to cross-link my websites?
-
I own multiple websites in the same niche but all are targeting a different sub-niche and different keywords.
Is it a good idea to interlink all my websites? Could there be some negative effects?

Ahh I see
read this prior to my morning coffee...Yes you are correct, don't know why I was thinking that the sites where going to be migrated... However, if 3 pages are on the 2nd page of Google for one keyword, doing a 301 redirect from 2 of the 3 pages to 1 page should help win.

There's nothing wrong with Legitimately linking to relevant websites (yours or not)
SEOMOZ for example.. They link to all of their properties from here...
The only thing to look out for is site-wide links, or more links then what would be regarded as "natural"
Also, make sure your websites are all on unique C-class IP's or Google wont value the links from your other sites as much as it would if they were on unique C-class IP's.
If 10 sites have the same C class IP, they are most likely owned by the same person, therefor Google places less value on them

As long as the sites don't have penalties or too many bad (non relevant) links pointing at them you should be fine. What is the reason for this? are you trying to push PR to one site? If so... What does your linking profile look like?
If the new site will target the same keywords or if you are going to use the same exact text I would recommend doing a 301 redirect so that you can keep you link juice (authoritative qualities) and avoid duplicate content.

If anyone is aware of anything similar, we'd love to hear about it. Thanks in advance!

Community Consensus: Are These Good Links?
I recently used a firm to do 2 months of outreach as a test for quality of work. Their reporting process is monthly, which seems fair, but after the first month's report I was sorely disappointed with the targeted domains for links. Apparently, the firm decided to condense the two months of outreach in to 4 days, so by the time I was finally able to see the work, the "job is done." Again, extremely disappointed. The original SOW was to target set posts for outreach in month 1, review/adjust and move in to month 2. No dice. So, here I am now left with a list of sites that have been targeted for outreach, being told "they are quality sites." What do you think, am I missing something and these are truly good links? Below are just a very, very small sample of the outreach completed: http://www.vrml.k12.la.us/7th/homework/ss/student/addtional.htm http://healthyfoodsandmore.com/useful-links.php http://antique.vccc.com/links.htm http://cyberflapr.tripod.com/links.htm

AllTop Linking Me to Other Sites Feeds, Webmasters Reporting Lots of Broken Links
I submitted my blog to All Top awhile ago and something seems to be wrong with their feed. They're sending people to mysite.com/truth-o-meter.com/this-is-a-post. It's not just truth-o-meter either. I'm getting links that are supposed to go to all kinds of political blogs. As a result, I'm getting a ton of broken links reported on Google Webmasters. I couldn't find any real support option on alltop.com, and when I log in, there are no sites for me to manage. Instead, I resubmitted the site with the correct feed address and in the comments, I mentioned the problem. All I got was a message saying the site was rejected. I believe because I already added the site. But I'm thinking they didn't pay attention to the comments. (In fact the message may have gone through an auto-filter considering how quickly it was rejected.) Is there a way to solve this? Is this a situation in which I would use the disavow tool? If All Top continues to create bad links, how do I stop the issue once and for all? Thanks!

Footer Links And Link Juice
I'm starting to learn about link juice and notice in GWMT > Traffic > Internal Links, that the list is in this order by the links counted on each page. Some are in the footer and some are in the header, with some being more important than others commercially i.e. /register /privacy /terms /search /sitemap /disclaimer /blog /register So I am wondering if I should add a 'no-follow' attribute to the footer links i.e. privacy, terms, disclaimer and leave the others as they are? Does this help retain link juice on each page where the links appear? Or am I missing the point all together? This is my website: http://goo.gl/CN0e5
