Would you get link from this blog?
-
I have an opportunity to place a guest blog on a site. The site has the following metrics:
-
DA/PA: 24/36
-
Inbound links: 3K+ from 16 root domains
Here is what makes me uneasy:
-
The number of links from the same domain, suggesting sitewide or footer links
-
When I look at the backlinks, there are links from sites like http://best-american-law-firms.info/, or http://www.luvbuds.info/. They sare blogroll links that are likely paid for.

Search branded and non-branded terms for the site on Google to see how the site performs. If they aren't deindexed or performing poorly for their targeted keywords it probably wouldn't hurt to obtain a link from them.
However, it would probably be better to put your guest post efforts elsewhere.
-
nope. look for sites with a lot more linking root domains
-
ALL their backlinks are blogroll links. Not looking good!
-
If the other 14 domains are like those 2 then I wouldn't waste my time. Probably wouldn't hurt, but life is too short!

Should I noindex shop page and blog page for SEO?
I have about 15 products in my store. Should I noindex shop and blog page for SEO? The reason I ask this question is because I see someone suggesting noindex archives pages. And the shop page is product archive and blog page is archive too, so should I choose index or noindex? Thanks!

How do you change the 6 links under your website in Google?
Hello everyone, I have no idea how to ask this question, so I'm going to give it a shot and hopefully someone can help me!! My company is called Eteach, so when you type in Eteach into Google, we come in the top position (phew!) but there are 6 links that appear underneath it (I've added a picture to show what I mean). How do you change these links?? I don't even know what to call them, so if there is a particular name for these then please let me know! They seem to be an organic rank rather than PPC...but if I'm wrong then do correct me! Thanks! zorIsxH.jpg

Massive rank drop for 'unnatural links' . Help!
Hi Everyone, I work for a company called Danbro - www.danbro.co.uk Recently a massive penalty lead to a huge drop across all keywords in Google including the brand name. Since we have conducted a massive clean up; (requesting competitors to remove duplicate content, removing some poor quality links etc etc) We still have not seen any improvement whatsoever nor has Google responded. Has anyone ever received a positive response from Google? Since we sent a reconsideration request our ranks actually went worse!! Any advice would be great
